That's not a joke, cspam is infamous for taking the worst parts of politics doomscrolling and shoving them into an insular echo chamber that actively erodes your sense of personal shame and replaces it with outrage. Much of it performative, for clout.

There is an incredibly good reason why one of the stickies in that place is a mental help thread. Cspam is almost tailor made to drive you, personally, insane.

Echo chamber politics discourse bad. Sadly, that's the only kind that is naturally self-sustaining.

To be fair, the world is currently in an extremely bad state and getting severe brain worms from that is perfectly understandable, and while it is not good to look at it and think at it, it is also not good to not do those things.

Actually since you're here, and this is just tangentially related to the thread's ostensible brief, but I still think your playthrough of FFXIV where you pretty much ignored the story to just cruise the casino and nightclub RP scene was genuinely inspired.

It's a shame people got weird about it but I'm glad you did it, that was good stuff.

thank you lol, that was one of my favorite things I ever did but yeah... people stalked me and tried to ERP me lol. It would be extremely cool to do an adults only 18+ FF14 LP where I show off the absolute real freaks I found in that game but it would require editing too many names lmfao

I also burned out on FF14 because its just too railroading the character to everything which isn't what I want in an MMO, its a shame because it has the absolute best RP I've ever seen in an MMO

i saw them around in the gbs trump thread but for various irl reasons i've barely posted anywhere, period, in like 3 months. not sure what made crow finally lose it but i will say that even the GBS trump thread is such an outstandingly hostile place that some of the more dedicated drama watchers in pyf have deemed it a place of "weird freaks"

I considered a similar idea of playing VR Chat with a streaming crew where I would explore random worlds and see what was out there, like there was a world that was just the entire map of Kamurocho which was sick as hell. Between my hacked together PSVR setup not always playing nice and blundering into two separate dragon orgies, I decided to shelf the project and do some more planning.

These insular megathreads just have a tendency of turning into a self-reinforcing circle jerk, with the same handful of posters egging each other on further and further, until finally someone flies too close to the sun.

To be fair it actually wasn't C-SPAM this time, as evidenced by the fact that it didn't involve a flavor of Stalin Did Nothing Wrong
