Most of the threads seem pretty normal, I don't see the problem.

In fairness, KLK literally opened with a fascist quote, but like everything else in that trainwreck of a series, it was only there for rule of coolness. Hbomberguy was the KlK apologist, but I've never really thought that there was a great deal to discuss in that series. It's just a shittier Gurren Lagann with more rape jokes.

The low effort posts that bug me are the ones found in Season threads, which quickly became unfocussed chat. Threads for individual series are normally fine, barring Fate/Type/whatever, which is all incestuous backpatting. I'll admit we don't have anything as bad as the TVIV Korra thread!

Haha you're still mad that people called your ideas retarded in the UBW thread.

Gom's threads about Kaiji vs Joseph Jostar, and American Death Note have been ten times funnier than anything posted in this forum in years.

i think a posting culture where low effort posts (preferably funny) and high effort Caring About Anime posts can both be made would be pretty cool, imo

Yeah.

Please do not suggest that ADTRW should be like Old, or even new GBS at all, Jesus Christ.

I think the problem is a lot of people feel scared to make effort posts because, uh, some people don't use their shift keys sometimes, I guess?

Just make the effort posts. The worst that happens is somebody calls you an idiot, which, we're all adults here. I think we can handle people thinking our anime opinions are dumb.

I can't.

I have never seen Ibram Gaunt post about a non-JoJo or Fate anime in ADTRW.

I posted about Parasyte, once.

I watch like one anime every two seasons, my bad opinions are all in the Megami Tensei Megathread.

Also people complaining that threads are kind of dry husks until new chapters/episodes come out need to be thankful for that because the threads for stuff that are constantly active are usually insanely bad.

I'd rather have a dozen Fukomoto (RIP) megathreads where one chapter is posted every 2 months then another KLK one.

Jul 22, 2009

I think it's good to be able to post your opinions without fearing you'll get a 3 day for not using proper punctuation or following some rigid posting guidelines in the name of "quality"


actually I'm pretty sure Beef Waifu already made this point, oops.

So just like a lot of goon IRC channels, the irc channel for ADTRW is full of the hosed up weirdos that were run out and/or banned from the forum itself. Hell yeah?

I'm glad our fallen posting brothers and sisters have a safe haven to talk about hentai.

Most of the minefield mahjong arc of Kaiji was lost on me since I had no clue what was going on, RIP.

Ibram Gaunt

The worst part about Minefield Majhong was when I first heard about it I assumed Kaiji would be playing mahjong on an actual minefield.

The next Kaiji arc is about highstakes Poker, can't wait to read it in 2025.

He didn't even say anything, just posted the link. I don't even remember if he got probated (like 6 freakin hours if he did) or just told to knock it off, people talked about the chapters just fine.

I'll never understand why Kill la Kill became the flashpoint for this forum, when so many more reprehensible shows were tolerated or loved because the characters looked more like children or something. Its hosed up

I think it's because zorak made it an official thread rule that you couldn't make fun of it
