Saoshyant posted:realistically, i think it will be like neogaf all over again. that site had exactly the same problem, with its owner being a rapist and the community saying enough was enough and leaving, all of them. yet, neogaf managed to stay afloat with a few stragglers and over the last three years has accumulated a whole community of alt-righters and white supremacists. its owner no longer has money issues. if Jeffrey doesn't manage to secure SA, then it will go the same way as neogaf i think it's probably slightly different in that the $10 barrier to entry would stop the critical mass you need. he could drop the reg fee but since SA a everything/nothing board, there's little reason to post here instead of all the other alt-right places. though i'm always surprised when i learn about a shithead community that's been around forever, so who knows

I heard vague things about Lowtax being a creep but I guess his admin goonsquad was successful in erasing it because that's all I knew- vague rumours. That there's a post with it all in detail, including the admin protection crew, pinned in GBS is a sign of something.

cspam is not that bad in and of itself, i have very little faith in making cspam the nucleus of a new forum though. still, i'll wait a few weeks for things to settle and then sign up there, see for myself how it works out. the fact that the patreon money really is evaporating has lent me a bit of hope that the forums might actually get spun out.

I am willing to make the purchase in cookies if that's what it takes to get lowtax to the table.

SA is a large forum, so statistically there’s a fair chance that there’s at least one domestic abuse victim reading these forums who is weighing whether or not she should report the violence she’s suffering what do you think she’s going to think seeing a bunch of people going on saying, effectively, “guys guys, if we can get his patreon down to below 1000$ do y’all think we’ll get another tearful video of her?? wouldn’t that be grand?!?” (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)
