oxsnard posted:regardless of what happens next, lowtax lost like $80k of annual passive income in like 24 hours which is unequivocally a good thing it’s absolutely incredible I mean any way you slice it, SA is guaranteed to die if LT doesn’t gently caress off. he could barely keep the lights on with $8k a month passive income thanks to catastrophic money management, and now that’s gone

Lightning Knight posted:Also if you’re a lurker who isn’t clear on this: it’s not over. If Lowtax doesn’t commit to the deal and gently caress off, we still need to leave. We still need to make sure everyone knows to stop giving to his Patreon, too. Hey LK, you are easily one of the best mods on the forums, and a large part of why CSPAM isnt either a festering hell hole or a joyless D&D clone

I honestly don’t follow a lot of the forum blood fueds and QCS stuff, but I do wonder how much mods and admins have been constrained by the specter of LT‘s getting blitzed and stomping in to gently caress everything up, which he seemed to do every few months

Also I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by all these offsites and feeling like I have to pick between them. Which ones don't suck? Which ones have let crew culture metastasize into a cancer that will eventually take down their entire community?

I posted yesterday that lowtax's only possible pivot is to right wing MRA spokesman, but I just realized he could possibly earn a living delivering really high priced cookies in his GTR... but I guess that's way more work than he's done in decades.

He’ll be an MRA and a cookie salesman, in lieu of BRAIN FORCE. Then it’ll come out he was sticking his dick in the cookies.

Which ones have let crew culture metastasize into a cancer that will eventually take down their entire community? There's only one real offsite, but while it's definitely SA-adjacent they're trying to do their own thing and the forum culture is, while similar, also different enough that it's not the same atmosphere SA has, for better and for worse.

Smekerman posted:okay, let’s set aside the old mod forum for now. at the very least, under the new administration, they should have a publicly viewable mod forum. all administration should happen out in the open, with no more loving secrecy. realtalk this is a TERRIBLE idea. some stuff has to happen behind closed doors before a decision is made, because if you put it on front street people will absolutely lose their minds about everything you say even if you don't act on it. the correct thing to do is to be transparent and opena bout the decision making process after the fact, but that will also not happen and even if they tried nobody woul believe them now edit for example if i post saying i think we should ban poster a for reasons xyz even if it doesnt happen poster x and their friends are going to lose their minds AND the idea that we were talking about banning them is going to stay in people's heads forever and just causes more drama
