Lol this is great

Larry Parrish posted:ppl keep saying this but homework explainer quit because you people have brain damage and made that up + kept repeating it over and over. also according to him being an admin is mad fail, which I believe he quit before he got booted after being clowned on in QCS also nobody made up him denying genocides, and he had a very famous D&D post about how north Korea is good this is his 'i quit' post R. Guyovich posted:After continuing this discussion with the rest of the mods I've decided the most reasonable course of action is stepping down immediately. We have a good group of people handling things and I've been doing less and less as we've added new mods and admins to the team. I had already planned to leave around the end of the year when the transition was finished and everyone was settled into their roles but clearly there is good reason to accelerate that timeline and stop adminning now. As much as I tried not to let my position influence my posting I can look back on past threads and see where that was obviously not the case. I apologize for my behavior, take full responsibility for it, and ask it not be thought to reflect on the rest of the mods and admins here. I wish them all the best. and here is one of is his greatest hits: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3779610 quote:Now we're delving into more aggressive opponents of American imperialism, and consequently getting into countries more heavily propagandized against. As I said, there are other places to talk about the DPRK government and how unreliable our reporting is about this country. It throws suspicion on everything we hear. No matter your opinion, the DPRK suffered unimaginable loss during the Korean War, with a full third of the population killed and the city of Pyongyang leveled by the fighting. With that bloody history fresh on the mind, and with the United States military playing war games and undergoing nuclear tests on its border, does it come as a surprise the DPRK would emphasize its military as a means of self-defense? The people of Korea know very well what American invasion and occupation is like. And, to most Westerners' surprise, it's not just the north that wants the US out. The "Sunshine Policy" of the late '90s and early '00s was making great strides toward a friendlier relationship between the DPRK and the Republic of Korea. But the Bush administration's "Axis of Evil" saber rattling put a stop to that. With American troop movement interfering with peace and reunification, the ROK has its own share of anti-imperialists, despite the prevailing opinion of Americans who've never visited. Therefore the ROK could be included as an "honorary member" of the anti-imperialist bloc, if a government similar to Kim Dae-Sung's ever made its way back into power.

I wish I'd been around for goon Kingdom of Loathing, because that game (which was reasonably well-designed but encouraged very tight optimization in a way that broke people's brains, and also the dev team constantly made fun of their playerbase in content updates) drove its entire community nuts. I'm blessed to know about goferchan and the stash raid, at least.
