It's a little rich that people are claiming that D&D is a racist hellhole, an environment that gave gfsincere his own thread, supported and bolstered him as he personally attacked posters on a regular basis, and still had users defending him and saying we should be listening to him after he claimed he was a highly skilled security specialist who had broken into the forums, had proof of a conspiracy to hold our CC information, and posted a business card with his full name, business phone number, and job title. To the point that even FAU, who was extremely patient and reasonable with him in all other venues, couldn't reason with that. And still people were defending him and claiming the mod team was in the wrong for banning him. That is echo-chambery as gently caress.

Who What Now posted:

So is this thread just for people who don't post in D&D to bitch about how much they hate D&D? Because y'all could just not read D&D if it's so goddamn awful.



Wait, gently caress, are some of you being held hostage by woke terrorists and being forced to read the Negrotown threads?! Do you need help, for someone to call the police to come rescue you? Post one racial slur for yes, two slurs for no.

I think part of the topic is how to get more people with a wider range of opinions involved in D&D instead of telling people they're stupid and to get out. There seems to be an odd struggle between people who think they own D&D and should have editorial control over the discourse, down to what words people can and can't say in any context. It's like most of the people here are doing a kind of verbal judo to get others to give up and leave instead of continuing a discussion.

Somebody doxxed me, came to my work, and sucked my dick while I was on the phone with my boss. Sometimes doxxing works out but results may vary.

Yes, but now it's like an O. Henry story where I got what I wanted but with terrible consequences

I was scarred for life because I was criticized for having to use the n-word during my thesis defense. My professor said "you've been messing with that projector for 20 minutes and could you please stop calling it that"

pay the money you were already gonna have to pay to a better cause

seems like a complete wash to me

definitely not "trump toxxers were vicitims/clinton toxxers got off free!". that's silly.

I understand this is what it looked like to you, but that's definitely not what it looked like to the rest of everyone on the forums, and it was dealt with appropriately.

The toxx dodging was bullshit because it was framed as a feel-good hug party instead of the miserable walk of shame it should have been.

*shrugs* We all got banned anyway, even if we did donate. You realize that, right?

I do, and I thank the powers that be every day that it happened.

But offering the trump toxxers the mercy of a month's probation if they just publicly repented and humiliated themselves was done out of the goodness of everyone's hearts, right.

You'll be amazed to find out that I didn't bring this up, and I think toxxing is stupid, and that I'm a liberal and hypocrites of all stripes annoy me

ugh i can't stand the rank hypocrisy about ancient, decade-old traditional threats to conditionally self-ban on the something awful forums. some things are sacred god drat it!!! i say this as a liberal who is super upset about pro-hillary voters not being punished as much as i want them to be

They actually got the punishment they originally agreed to, and I think this is a fair and hilarious thing.

so then why are you still mad about it if you got what you wanted

"oh no! some people almost didn't get banned from something awful! let me remember this and bring it up constantly months later, about how the forum accounts which should have been closed nearly werent closed but ultimately were!"

*crosses arms, smiles* actually, I think you're the one who is mad
