This does appear to be the case.

RIP Lowtax. I will miss your front page whimsicle funnies that gave me joy when I read SA back in HS.

beep by grandpa posted:

let's say his demise was'nt precipitated by his monstrous, cowardly acts leading to his undoing and trading off the site to more capable hands,

i always assumed 100% that if lowtax ever just dropped dead one day (pre-jeff) that this site would disappear without a trace with absolutely zero contingency

Seeing how astral straight up said that there were no backups of the site when they took over and absolutely no redundancy it wouldn't have been surprising

Zortzico: Jul 3, 2007; We're Just Running In The 90's

Dusted off my account to blow a wet fart at this eulogy.
This poo poo I saw start here since :regd07:

and gone on to become staples of internet nonsense is a crazy list. Slenderman and Let's Play are 2 of the biggest ones.

Aside from that, weird disgusting poo poo like Romeo Rose, the goon parents who lost/were going to lose custody of their kid because they were living in squalor, the opening of the safe full of gumballs and the deed to Dracula's castle.

I'm sitting here with genuinely mixed emotions on this. I'm nostalgic for these forums which I haven't used in years, but Lowtax turned out to be a real negative figure. He is deserving of the remembrance he's receiving full of shitposts and jokes about his lovely legacy.
