I guess you can just edit all your posts to nothing. You can probably make a script to make it easier. But that won't work on closed threads.

a bit opportunistic and awkward but in case something does happen to SA, and since this is my post posted-on thread by a long mile, if anything does happen and you want other forums to go to, i have a relatively small forum called knockout. it only has about ~10k registered users but yall are cool and i'd welcome you all there.

that said, the real idris was the shitposts we made along the way. godspeed, commandos.

Thanks. Hasn't been easy all the time on both of us I can tell you that. Weirdest thing is how REALLY well you get to know each other. Last night/this morning we were reminiscing of things and important or funny/good events. Unfortunately this virus of a game was in the back of my head and I was silently thinking, drat, taught kids how to drive, kids graduated high school, about to graduate college. What a dumpster fire of a project.

Noo, I paid money to lurk here and enjoy the trainwreck that is Star Citizen. You can't just take my main supply of schadenfreude away.

I'm a long-term SA lurker. I never pledged but I have been following the project with an odd fascination since the kickstarter days. I have a soft spot for doomsday cults that look forward to specific dates for the rapture/jesus patch and then have to rationalize when nothing is ever delivered. shoutout to ggangensis as I'm also checking in on the German Citizens on gamestar.de every once in a while.

So uh, buy an Idris, is what I'm saying I guess

4- the resurgence of the dancing cat videos and the editing of the .ini files
5- the identity of the tickler in black
6- MoMa comeback
7- Jesus patch
8- another meltdown by brasson
9- seraph last words
10- Sandi return with the latest best marketing strategy
11- someone to reach the top tier of the referral pyramid scheme project
12- next very successful citizencon
13- real numbers of the tracker exposed
14- revolt in spectrum
15- next bear picture iterations
16- discover the amount of money syphoned from this project into Chris & co bank account
17- the next book on the stimpire
18- the collapse of cig under the inevitable consequences of piracy
19- death of the universe (BBDAwhatever)
20- death of the universe (actual one)

If everyone could pick one and post finding iit before this shut down I would be glad thanks and have a safe journey to your next adventure

As I work from home, my dogs often get between hand-to-mouse connection with their needy heads and they always get loving. :)

A good doggo knows how to get all the love when they need it! <3

on the upside, with the final blocker (SA and its filthy fud brigaders) out of the way, Star Citizen should be done any day now.

Also, as far as offsites go, there's a billion and one springing up as people anticipate the (final) death of the forums, so y'all just be careful about which ones you join or whatever. Not saying anyone here has bad intentions, just that as people sprint to spin up offsites sometimes security can get a little lax. This is less of a problem with discord, obvs. Speaking of, it got posted once around the time Derek got the boot but I do run a relatively quiet discord for Star Citizen dorks and MWO dorks (lotta crossover there) that folks are welcome at. I'll post a link if anyone's interested in having yet another discord to join lol.

I didn't start posting here because of Lowtax and I'm not going to walk away because of Lowtax. I don't think he's responsible for the parts of the community that I really like, and the fact that a lovely dude benefits indirectly from our continued use of this site is frustrating but still not nearly as bad as Reddit or Facebook or a dozen other megacorp-owned content aggregators that we all continue to use even as we decry them.

So I won't walk away but I also won't be putting any money towards the site- and if it does die, I'll hopefully see you guys wherever we all end up. (Try the discord first)

Not gonna lie, Star Citizen outlasting SA is kind of a hilarious timeline but I would hate losing this thread.

Beet Wagon

For what it's worth I kind of doubt this will really be the death of SA. SA has imploded a million times before and because subforums and even threads are mostly little self-contained units (and honestly the forums themselves are pretty isolated from Lowtax for the most part) a lot of folks will probably just keep posting without even realizing what's going on. It would take somebody in a position of power hitting the "gently caress it" button and deleting the forums for this to really kill SA (which admittedly is a possibility, however slight).

That said I'm sure quite a few of our favorite posters aren't going to want to post here any more and I can't really blame them because uhhhhhhh :yikes:

We had actual right wingers posting up a storm back in the day; Very anti-minority was the old SA. The reaction has been amazing to behold, but it's still a community made up of people.

I'm going to wait and see. Sometimes couples get a bit public with their laundry.
