Counterfeit posted:Someone said this the other day and I was just stunned Fark was still going. Don’t even remember how I first found it but I’m happy it brought me here. Yeah like a couple of days ago something got into my head to check if ebaumsworld still existed, was shocked to see it did, then checked fark and was blown away it existed too. I joke that probably somebody on their end thought the same about SomethingAwful too, which feels sadly ironic now.

A friendly reminder that there is the MMA Goons discord that we lovingly renamed as Fight Island where the infrastructure has been built. We worked on it

I’m in the same boat. This sub has been my main lurking place for the last 10 years or so. I’ve watched this forum grow and change and will miss it so very much if it disappears.

Junpei Hyde posted:Anecdotal evidence but ive heard tollymain in particular has put off more than a few women with his behaviour, and according to a friend of mine some of the B&R recruitment people can be way too overly flirty when trying to get you on board. so a) theres' no "recruitment" people, our recruiting has been entirely "hey you should post here. its a cool place. search works" and we didnt even do that until loving today. prior to that the "recruitment" was "anyone who wants in this discord say so", nobody has gone loving hunting for people b) tollymain was banned the same night he was perma banned here what the gently caress are you even talking about, besides poo poo you know nothing about

I'm going to go make popcorn and watch either Bloodsport 4 or Kickboxer 4. I'm waiting on Bread and roses, I'll see if this place is still standing tomorrow, and if my desk comes, start furiously scribbling Bam Bam/Starman mashup.

Settled on Jaws for some reason. Bloodsport 2 has better fight scenes than bloodsport. Fight me. Kickboxer is a cheap fuckin ripoff of bloodsport (both series started with jvcd, both had another actor take over the series and did 2 as the same character) but kickboxer has a better introduction to the main villain than bloodsport. Fight me. Bloodsport 3 is very cheap and terrible. The main bad guy barely moves when he fights and just puffs his chest. Like if vinnie mac booked the kumite.

I have no idea what you're talking about, if people were talking about offsites prior to today I don't know where they would've been doing it, and I know nothing about Junpei Hyde's posting in particular as I mostly keep to the MMA/Sumo threads. I've never heard of B&R or tollymain prior to today, so everything I know is what's in the 9 pages of this thread.

I don’t know what any of this drama is about but the collapse of SA, multiple offshoot forums, infighting about where to go to next before most of those options end up dying or becoming insane hellholes all seems like we’re right on course

If anyone wants a non-discord SA-replacement Bread and Roses was founded earlier this year by goons from C-SPAM and it's been getting thousands of new members over the past day. They already have a few wrestling threads in their sports subforum and they'd probably make a dedicated wrestling subforum if enough wrestlehut people joinedWampaLord posted:Anyone who wants an invite, just go to https://breadnroses.net/ and register, I will approve, let me know the username you select if it is different. zetamind2000 fucked around with this message at 06:34 on Jun 25, 2020 |

Bread N Roses appears to be a popular choice for a wide range of posters from multiple subforums and there's absolutely nothing wrong given the point of this thread for people to be offering up alternatives/safety nets in the eventuality something does happen to SA. Nobody has to join up with any of them if they don't want to, and if they do they don't have to stick around either. People are looking for places where they can keep in touch with their buddies, that's the most important thing for a lot of people at the moment which is why so many discords are being offered around as well: they don't replace the SA experience but they at least let people avoid being left in the dark about where everybody is in a worst case scenario re: these forums. The only person to be angry at in this situation is Lowtax, for putting the community/forums in this state in the first place.
