Avoid discord, their privacy policy explicitly states "we own everything you post or say and reserve the right to sell it to anyone, anywhere, forever, and you forfeit all privacy and rights to anything". They are also super aggressive about data collection, they are always cross referencing your account with social media and web history to build up a detailed advertising profile (which they are selling), they're basically facebook but slightly more evil.

Discord is the next big tech scandal waiting to happen.

what shits me is how much money have people have pumped into this poo poo forum, year after year, in the hopes of forum improvements

bans, re-regs, no ads, archives, pledge drives, referral links, with minimal money going to the forums beyond hosting, and all of it going on drug fuelled binges

this place deserves someone far better than lowtax owning it who views it as his own fuckin piggybank.

"If you'll excuse me, my dinner time is six o'clock. Only gangsters eat at 9 o'clock, after some bootlegging and a hot game of craps."

God dammit, I love this place. To destroy it would be the worst possible ending to this scandal, wrapping it up with the damnatio memoriae Lowtax will probably get. Unless anyone's working on a legitimate alternative to SA at this literal moment — because contrary to some posts, there's no real "alternative" to SA — I don't see why anyone wants to burn this place to the ground.

I called this poo poo months ago in that thread where BPD girlfriend showed up and started babbling 1st year marketing class crap about overhauling the forums and Lowtax got awfully touchy about how obvious it was that he was loving her.

Granted, I didn't know it was gonna be this SPECTACULAR.

Is there a more tech savvy goon who could tell us what the server costs of a site like this actually are? Because that's always been the excuse for not improving anything.
