edit: stop spamming random threads


i guess this is "spamming random threads" now?

"Hi! So, I don't think I've ever posted in this thread, but I've lurked it for a long time. I genuinely love what's been created here, and reading through these reviews has gotten me through plenty of hours of being bored, sad, hungover, etc. So please let me shill for breadnroses.net. It's an SA replacement web forum that was created by goons earlier this year and in the past 24 hours it's gone from a few hundred to over 3000 posters.

It's the closest thing to SA that you're going to find online. It has a lefty politics section, yes, but it also has tons of chill forums, including a traditional/tabletop games forum. I'm not a mod or anything there, just someone who loves this thread (and tg in general) and wants to see it continue regardless of what happens here. So please consider going to breadnroses.net and signing up. Right now afaik it's free, there's a note about 10bux when you register but from my understanding the admins are waving that because they're flush with donations and right now they just want to let everyone in that they can. They approve everyone manually so it might take a second because there's such a rush of new posters signing up. And yes, it is a lefty site, but there's plenty of subforums and threads on there that are very chill and fun (basically don't be a nazi). But please just consider signing up and checking the games forum out (they also have forums for mafia, cyoa, and so on). I think it would make a great new forever home for this thread, and while I don't know computer stuff, it looks like inklesspen would be able to adapt her magic archiving, uh, magic to that sort of forum far easier than discord. So please! Check out breadnroses.net!

Thanks to everyone who's ever contributed. I hope goons keep fatal & friends rolling for years to come. "

Clearly some goons are going to use it as a chance to grind axes because goons gonna be goons even as the planet is swallowed by the ever expanding sun. But just because they are using that as a way to do so doesn't mean it's not got a legit concern at its core. People talk about wanting to keep the community together (& honestly I don't know if that's even desirable, never mind possible, there's some loving horrible people on here. Liberals even!) but having such a lack of confidence (which when combined by the lack of transparency is a real issue) in the people who are apparently deciding our collective future as a place for bad posting about the Failing New York Times & what pistol feels the nicest when you put it up your bum or whatever the Gun Weirdos sub talks & all the rest makes that pretty unlikely.
well, we'll probably lose a lot of people no matter what. so there isn't really any "good" option just a lot of "less bad" options. but i've posted this elsewhere but i thought at the time that it was just a custody dispute. she's kidnapped his kids? what? there was something unsettling and disturbing going on but let's say the mods did try to launch an officers coup at the time, knowing what everyone knew at the time, would most goons have been behind them? that's hard to say. there were a lot of goons defending him. that's not a good reason but i don't think they knew WTF was going on.

SA was successful in the early internet days specifically because of lowtaxs heavy handed moderation and more of a site wide monoculture

as soon as he walked away (lol briefly handing the keys to Frags) a bunch of different communities and micro-communities sprung up and flourished. this was cool, but the lack of a single source for sitewide moderation made the individual admins and mods go crazy reading cow entrails to determine what the bossman actually wanted. drama grew exponentially, the userbase became increasingly antagonistic to the modstaff, and, well here we are

he doesn't care about the forums, he cares about the $$$ and dumb e-fame being the owner of the forums. it sounds like he might have cared back in SA's bad old days when he was active and we hadn't pushed out the blatantly 4chan/8kun types.

the forums grew despite him and now the forums are going to spite him

lowtax would not post in the mod forum for 3 to 4 years at a time. his only post for years right before i quit was a very weird thread where he apologized for not being active and a few sentences in turned the post into complaining about kicking his daughter out of his house for saying something nice about his exwife. he has not actually worked in probably a decade.
