i'd heard similar things about precision but never lent them much credence because he didn't seem emotionally stable enough to effectively creep on anyone

not a dig at you, but it is wild to me how often it is demonstrated that creeps can be "known" in a community for years, but unless there is a concerted effort they aren't forced out. I found them strange but never would have guessed.

Seeing something like this is like when Aatrek was banning people for posting about My Little Pony and said they were too obsessed with media for children

(USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

It's always weird when it's someone with an active 00's era account who's rap sheet is pretty much 50% of stuff from the last 2 years. Like....something happened or its a clear sign to take a mental health break from the forums especially since the most recent probe was for reposting a reddit comment about spicy asian buttholes and then getting mad in the thread when given a 6'er for how weird it was.

Beyond that the most probe recent stuff in 2023 was "my cleaning ladies hate me :sad:", trying to call out posters who like Rick and Morty, and having some kind of weird breakdown in a videogames thread and posting some personal info the mods blanked.

On a related note, weird breakdowns in videogames threads and posting personal info are like a major red flag for someone who later gets seriously banned/perma'd not for any common reason other then a general "drat, you need to be off these forums"

they were also posting under an alt for about a year so that accounts for some of the gap

this was about three years ago, which i remembered because it was so off-puttingly weird

precision posted:

God, what a bunch of navel gazing horse poo poo. Lmao. "Why do anything, why not just make long posts instead"

Y'all have fun. I'm deleting the awful app for good this time. Sick of assholes like stux and the new "chat thread clique" (aka the stux fan club) who apparently delight in making me, a mentally ill person, feel like total poo poo just for trying to post and be chill.

I guess it's proof of how woke they are, they'll even bully a depressed nonbinary person that just wants to be their friend

Lol

two months later new poster simone magus showed up, i think they claimed to be a transgender therapist or something. they were very obviously a precision rereg because they posted in the same places and claimed to know nothing of them but also had some opinions on how they were treated

Simone Magus posted:

Okay, now post a screenshot where you search for "precision", the goon who stopped posting 7 months ago but that you and a bunch of others hated so much that you constantly talk about him in discord

that account got banned because of a tim rogers toxx(?) and then precision showed up again. i don't know anything substantial about their offsite conduct though

LETTIN THE CAT OUTTA THE BAG

Triticum Guzzler posted:

The essence of the criticism of the criticism that has been ongoing, at least on my part, is that it is bad. It is not good. It is really not very informative. It is not that it is bad to "care".

If you actually legitimately care about film, there is a good chance you do not post about it on this web site, because if you look at the movie forum (or the book forum, etc) you see that largely there's an incredible fixation on really childish products (and they are usually products rather than films) with a corresponding lack of taste. I'm sure it's an idea that's unfamiliar to you, as a grown man who wants to surgically replace his dick and balls with a coin operated motorised Donald Duck ride who is about 3 wispy chin hairs away from being a convicted rapist, but when criticism is coming from a really juvenile place about a less-juvenile subject it can seem very superficial and difficult to respect. Like when they allow kids to do news reports on the actual news.

This is one side of the coin here. Some of the reviewers present as, essentially, children of varying extreme largeness. But even if you read what they have to say about children's movies, it's still incredibly basic analysis of a film seen through a lens of a culture who are obsessed with identity politics in all things.

For example, if you read this week's review of The Boxtrolls, all you will learn is:

- The reviewer liked Coraline and Paranorman, but this film has a worse story
- There are trolls who wear boxes, also there are two characters who have names
- The film is nominally about the trolls who wear boxes, however it focuses on one of them who isn't REALLY a troll, but is actually a boy. This is a "big problem".
- The villain is avaristic and ugly. He pretends to be a woman, this is also a big problem, but we're not told why. Just that tumblr dislikes that and they're right to do so.
- The animation is good, kids will like it.

The only thing gleaned from this review that you won't get from the trailer is a number score and at some point a man wears a dress. It's an 800 word sideways glance at a movie and it really does not do a good job reviewing it outside of conveying the general sentiment that it's sort of not bad. I don't respect this, and I don't much care what this person has to say about other movies especially if they're more complicated than this movie for 6-year-olds.

On top of which the reviews are completely joyless, on a comedy web site. It's not just that it's really out of place, it's poorly executed in its own right. I'm not trying to illegally troll or insult them so please do not electronically beat me up, but I don't think they're cut out for this.

Thank you for reading this wearying post. As a reward, here is a picture of the cast of Duck Tales taking public transport so you can finally blast the biggest load of your life you mewling piece of poo poo idiot

Although some people still have a craving for it. The alien thread has frequent arguments over semantics and definitions which are really tedious

As someone targeted by granos on these very forums, I promise you it isn't wild at all. Old mate harassed many people over a long period of time and the community's response was a catch phrase that people quote to this day
