I’ve only seen it a few times usually when it was linked in the previous thread, but yeah, a whole lot of idiots post about the pod there. I wouldn’t say I want to get access to it.

I was funny if you stayed on the front page of the subreddit for the most part, the more pages you went through the more it got bigoted.

the subreddit is very bad, and never did anything good besides the ESL classroom thing and the guy who posted a video of his first time using heroin as a tribute to adam

The subreddit is literally a bunch of cave people who want to emulate the humor of cum town without any of the charm.

So it’s literally just racism.

Dunno if it's been noticed by others but a few days ago a subforum called "FYAD gravesite" or something got opened right under the Comedy Goldmine. it was only there for a few moments.

There was only one thread in it that dated back to when FYAD was still open. The mods were discussing offsite doxxing and how to close FYAD. Jeffrey and a bunch of mods were discussing the issue. Junpei and another mod started a tangent where they were going to give lengthy probes to stomp on dissent preemptively (paraphrasing). No other mod gave any feedback or agreed in any shape or form but they just went ahead and gave this very thread month long probes to fight nazis and doxxing or something.

wrong about fyad and kiwifarms being the same userbase as the reason for fyad being closed. it doesnt matter if they were kf or not, that description just obscures what the actual problem was. fyad was getting as bad as the cumtown reddit thread, doesnt matter about where else they posted, the poo poo they posted here sucked

The worst part of the mods is that they asked us over and over again to stop calling people the “R” word, and asked us to get creative. So we started saying that the President is highly ‘regarded’ which is not just a clever subversion while also NOT A SLUR, but is genuinely clever wordplay that really encapsulates a lot of what is so funny about the current political climate (the POTUS being actually highly regarded in many circles) and then the mods proved people for saying it because it RHYMES with the no no word.

Like it’s just such a transparent power trip and the mods aren’t actually arguing for anyone to work harder to be funny or arguing in good faith for people to be clever, they are just a bunch of thin-skinned [BOOP]s who just wanna [BOOP] to [BOOOOP] goddamnit Nick what the hell I didn’t say [BOOP] *Stavros laughing inconsolably*

While I think the fyad situation was mishandled overall the reason these forums have survived and continued to be pretty good when compared to the rest of the internet is because rules have generally erred on the side of anti-bigotry. when that poo poo goes unchecked you get 4chan or KF or to a lesser extent the cumtown subreddit. I’d rather see posters eat a ban for posting “r*tard” than see this place devolve into an alt right shithole. (i don’t think that’s what actually was happening in fyad fwiw)
