From 2020:

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:

Lowtax change it so that unregistered users can't list forums in the panel. Some piece of logic in the code decided that not being able to list forums means it should show the banned page. The banned page shows your username - it'd say something like "CONGRATULATIONS fishmech!!!". However, logged in users do not have a username, and get set to a default one. Thanks to literally radium, this default was "Unregistered human being".

I turned off the "logged out users can't see forums" setting for now, and pushed this patch to remove the slurs:

He steals memes people posts or dm him with, and sometimes those people pay for the :eightbux:, which means people pay to make memes for him. A number of times the people who make musk - positive memes ultimately delete their accounts due to people mocking them.

I am crushed, absolutely crushed, to discover while looking for the current iteration of that thread that removing the slur did not actually break the forums. Lowtax broke the forums himself, which caused the forums started calling everyone the f-slur. That post is the cleanup, not the cause :negative:

If I'm trying to be a Joke Scientist, I think it's also because it crosses a line of perceived effort. That video looks like someone just drag-and-dropped an audio track over a video track, while this looks like someone REALLY slaved over a specifically-formatted sick burn.

It doesn't matter if that video actually required a bunch of painstaking tracking-down of clips and editing together and took hours, while those tweets could've just been written off the cuff, one just seems like it was low-effort, and that's important for selling a lot of jokes online.
