okay so i'm remembering a time when windows 98 posted that someone recognized him on the street and asked him if he was windows 98, and now i know that this random stranger approached not just a guy from a forum, but a guy from a forum whose main claim to fame is murder

Half the mods got bought bizarre WINDOWS 98 BEAT HIS FRIEND WITH A SHOVEL avatars. That wouldn't bother me, but Windows 98 is apparently a controversial enough mod/IK choice that somebody decided to drop a few hundo on buying the mod team avatars expressing their incredible fury. The assumption that every mod knows every time Lowtax makes a controversial decision is what could lead to doxxing and real-life harassment over a situation we didn't know anything about and had no control over.

I don't think there was any doxxing, he just straight up admitted to the shovel murder.

You know exactly what I meant. There is plenty of precedent for mods being doxxed.

I really don't but if Windows 98 existing is causing such issues then I think I know the solution.

My concern is mods being held responsible, now or in the future, for a decisions we had no part in, such as voting in a self-professed murderer. and also jesus christ :psyduck:

My mod powers are useless here. Also is he doing anything unGBS?

Also, wait, what's this about murder? I thought the allegation was about battery. A shovel with a battery would be pretty cool.

Massive mod meltdown. It's not our fault, the temperature is rising and we can't afford air conditioners.
