This might be the reason for the login related issues some were seeing: Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:Lowtax change it so that unregistered users can't list forums in the panel. Some piece of logic in the code decided that not being able to list forums means it should show the banned page. The banned page shows your username - it'd say something like "CONGRATULATIONS fishmech!!!". However, logged in users do not have a username, and get set to a default one. Thanks to literally radium, this default was "Unregistered human being".

Tiler Kiwi posted:that's impressive, usually you need floating points for that == in PHP is considered a "loose equality" comparison operator so it tries to fudge the right hand argument to be a similar type to the left hand argument. It will even attempt to do this with strings, to various degrees of success.

pretty much anything involving these forums pre-2010 likely does not bear even the mildest of scrutiny. even after that there is alot of stuff that common lore is way different than the actual events if you go digging for it, and usually in a way that makes the forums look less lovely

A forum named “gently caress You And Die” cultivated a local community where a key bunch of loud users treated trans people badly. This issue + QCS being shuttered + Mod/admin feet-dragging + Mods being dumb as hell in C-SPAM + Lowtax making some super rear end in a top hat decisions on live stream last night without knowing the extent of the previous issues = shitstorm

And instead of doing something about it, the overall reaction being to scream at us to "Stop talking about it. I SAID STOP TALKING ABOUT IT! THE PROBLEM WILL GO AWAY IF YOU JUST SHUT THE gently caress UP ABOUT IT"

THE PROBLEM WILL GO AWAY IF YOU JUST SHUT THE gently caress UP ABOUT IT" Yes, yes it was quote:Okay there's tons of drama going around right now, I do not prefer to spend my time dealing with forums drama. From now on, FYAD will stay in FYAD. That means no dumping on any other posters or threads on this forum, without explicit admin approval. We've got forums hating other forums, communities falling apart, and all this internet forum drama is overwhelming and unnecessary. As for the other moderation issues, we're working on that. Right now the admin team is stretched very thin, and is having a difficult time dealing with all the fires. Please allow us some time to address that. Thanks and happy new year!

does anyone have that initial announcement from last month right after this all started and FYAD and GCS was closed, where Smythe posted about how "FYAD is an important part of the forum's history and will continue to be." while not mentioning AT ALL the horrible poo poo they got closed for? It was so hilariously tone deaf, like if one kid hospitalized another at school and the announcement that went out to parents about the incident was basically "We value ALL our students here at Something Awful High School"

Having dozens of very (justifiably) frustrated people pointed in your direction is scary, and that’s in addition to whatever health (mental and physical) limits are on him right now.
