That would have been funny, but I think bringing the hammer down hard is the better choice. Also from QCS thread that's now locked:

Hello.

I upgraded the probe on "I Love Annie May" to a bit longer, but it's really just a placeholder, so don't think too deeply about the duration.

Loli poo poo is obviously, explicitly banned on these forums. I am going to talk to the anime mod a bit, and most likely end up dishing out some bans. These are codified bannable offenses, and they will be actioned.

There's a lot of material here to go over, so I'm going to take some time and do it right.

It pisses me off that people were posting and engaging with this poo poo on the SA forums, and they will be removed.

I'm going to close this thread while I churn through this, but please know that action is being taken, and there are dead men walking on the forums.

I will re-open this thread soon.

Thanks

The system works! Thanks everyone for letting me drag a bit of drama in here.

I liked Berserk at first but after a while all the constant terrible poo poo in it (like literally nothing happy *ever* happens to the protagonist, and what I hear about the latest chapters isn't any different!) got real old, real fast, and I dropped it. Seems I made the right choice :stare:

Have permas become more common lately? I feel like I see them more than I did when I was lurking/just regged. That's not a bad thing, just don't know if it's been going on for a while and I'm just noticing it, or if it's because the new mods are way more willing to dish them out.

I assume it got moved to the mod forum so they can go through it and make sure people weren't posting pictures from the manga that was labelled loli/shota

The whole subforum should go. Anything posted in there that is not entirely for creeps and perverts should be able to stand on its own in any of the other media forums. It feels like there's some kind of massive pedo-drama in that forum once a year. Just flush it.

Isn't this the third form of having purge ADTRW?

The original purge created 4chan.

The second purge was late 2000s? A bunch of posters started getting real uppity and pushing the lines on the child porn and so the hammer had to drop again.

Now the culling has taken only a handful, down from the usual 20-30. Progress?

Yeah, I think the original purge was in 2003 and then we had another one in 2007 or 08. This was just a few creepy posters and was nowhere near as disgusting or crazy as those two got.

Nah, posting or trying to justify the existence of Loli anime has always been an insta-permaban.

They've been a little keener to permaban people just for being serial terrible posters, but that was before FaU stepped down. Smythe said in the thread about this creepy manga thing that he personally prefers regular bans. Frankly there's little difference between the two.

I believe it was the prominence of a "show that must not be named" at the time. Some posters could not help themselves from trying to talk it up like some sophisticated serious dramatic art form to the point of "well its really not that bad surely things like that happen in real life and this is a dramatic representation of it"

Hey didn't a few people eat perma bans when that massive hentai board was shut down? Like starting to make a serious issue of free speech and such but the board was a major source of the CP stuff.

It's sorta felt about the same to me over the years I've been here. I think it may just be a matter of where you frequently browse but I'm sure someone could find the answer if they went looking.

Yes. But the definition is technically something else - some average schlub dies embarrassingly and is reincarnated in a fantasy world where he can be awesome. It's sort of the flavor of the month plot setup for most of the stuff that gets adapted into anime right now.

Isekai 🌸🌸 is the portal 📣📣fantasy 🦄🐉 subgenre 🐋🐋 of Japanese🐙🐙 light novels🐙🐙, manga😝😝, anime😚😚, and video games😏😏. Isekai 🌸🌸works revolve around a 😷😷normal person😷😷 from 🗺🗺Earth being 🚅🚅transported to🚄🚄, 🏩reborn⛪, or 😩trapped😩 in a 🍬parallel🔃 universe🛄🛄, usually a 🐎🐫🐩fantasy 🐦🐀world.

It's the current trend, yeah, kind of like how Hollywood put out a billion zombie themed movies a few years ago. It's almost never done in an interesting fashion or if it does start out interesting, it quickly peters out into obvious one-handed writing about the Mary-Sue protagonist who can do no wrong and is always correct forever.









I suddenly want to see an anime adaption of Terry Goodkinds Sword of Truth books.

Honestly this is probably true of every forum. Best way to stop the weird cliques and toxic culture stagnation that uh leads to poo poo like the Berserk thread. Or most of the more embarrassing and disturbing stuff catalogued in this thread.

i mean, i don't know if you read my other post, but this isn't really going to be an ADTRW-unique problem with that other manga

like, that's pretty much gonna be the entirety of the Berserk fandom right there: it's a fandom with a very very comically high bar for "too hosed up to read" and like 30 years of goodwill built up towards the guy who's doing it.

(because Berserk is weirdly loving good for how bonkers hosed up it gets, to the extent that i'd literally, unironically call it a contender for the greatest comic ever drawn. it's basically a 40-volume-and-counting death metal album cover about the angriest motherfucker of all time using a sword the size of a tree to turn hordes of demons and people into splats of red goo, and it's also a gorgeously-drawn exploration of the human condition following a guy struggling desperately to maintain his humanity in the face of overwhelming trauma and violence, and the fact that it manages to successfully achieve both of these things at once will always be absolutely loving incredible to me. if you can handle all the grody poo poo in it, it is absolutely worth a read, even if this other poo poo Miura's doing is gross.)
