who knows. lowtax has seemingly always been of the thought that SA is way too much of a special-snowflake for ANYTHING off the shelf, regardless of what is task needs to be accomplished. why was he working on having a custom kickstarter thing instead of just, oh i don't know, using kickstarter or gofundme or whatever other crowdfunding/fundraising sites out there?

like reddit is lovely in a lot of ways, but whining about karma is dumb when we permaban anyone who voted for the loser every election and complaining about their lovely admins is dumb when our founder is whining on twitter about how the thought police won't let him say trannies are crazy for chopping off their dicks

its a $100000 car yet lowtax constantly bitches about how he's too broke to run the forums anymore

because instead of fixing anything lowtax spent a decade going "lol these forums are bad isn't that funny", and then wondered why everything was still broken

I think we just need some more mentally ill posters to turn this place around.

Actually I will say that SA still tends to have better quality content posting and information than most other forums if only because I very rarely feel like I have to play blade runner on the posts. Reddit/quora/facebook/twitter all have insane problems with sales bots. I'm fairly certain that most of the idiots here are 100% organic.

The update is that I'm still waiting for Xenforo 2.0 to be released here: https://xenforo.com/. But feel free to criticize me for not somehow making it release sooner, or thinking that it would be a swell idea to spend downtime transferring to 1.5.13 and then having to spend more downtime upgrading to 2.0 when it's released, which would cause even more of you to bitch at me and say what I'm an idiot I am.

It's great because when I'm hands-on and moderate here, people bitch at me and tell me I'm doing everything wrong. So I stop moderating and go hands-off, then people bitch at me for being absent. No matter what I do or don't do, it's the wrong thing, so you'll have to excuse me for not posting regular updates saying "Xenforo 2.0 has not yet been released," and you'll have to accept the idea that when it is released and the migration begins, I will let you know. I'm not exactly sure what some of you expect of me regarding reporting when there's nothing to report because I have no information regarding the release date of a third party piece of software that I'm waiting on, but continue to make snarky comments about what an idiot scam artist I am and also wonder why I don't actively post here anymore.
