Maybe there wouldn't have been multiple threads on cspam if the incredible own-goals of "advocating dog murder, and also advocating murder, getting a slap on the wrist" had been avoided.

Perhaps that is asking too much.

well you see, when you say things like "mao did something wrong" you are a worthless revolutionary larper making actual, direct threats at landlords that should be taken v seriously coming from the forum full of revolutionary larpers playing at revolution by posting.

cspam mods/iks need to start chainprobing the QCS poster that just weaseled their way out of a 12 hour that posted in barf jason's cspam thread.

if i could give the cspam mods a negative score, i would

here, cops, here's the post so you can probe it

posting as a regular on the forum that's just for bringing up issues to the mods is the sort of thing which would actually make me rethink a friendship

it's just so pathetic

turns out having 2 head admins in a row who've been seduced by the Forum that Dare Not Speak It's Name is a bad idea. I'm starting to think having the forums be controlled by the biggest dipshit might be bad for them. :thunk:

lmao no no no. for example: A Few Bad Apples telling me and syenite to kill ourselves, in a helldump thread the admins read and post in, is cool and good, actually! words can’t hurt.

unless those words are written in CSPAM. then it’s a clear and present threat that receives an immediate ban or perma, because the admins clique of buddies know this forum is dangerous. :thunk:

C-SPAM has like 15 mods and Gaupo Gaucho is not even forumbanned yet for the constant negative attention seeking, threadshitting, and violent threats. I like C-SPAM, but holy poo poo why have all these mods if you’re not going to do anything about persistently toxic posters?

In this 17 section power point presentation, I will explain why every forum is full of psychotic assholes except the one where we tell people to kill themselves.

Part 1. Holocaust jokes and the n-word.

If there's one thing 2020 proved over the course of the year, it's that there's always somebody nuder and madder online. FYAD and D&D will be mad at CSPAM until TGRS is madder at FYAD until GBS is mad at TGRS, rinse, repeat, fifteen iterations later, Pet Island and Goons with Spoons are at each other's throat, nothing has been learned.

ya, at this point I’ll settle for being mean to squizzle, and the CSPAM mods starting to chainprobe any toxic dumbfucks who brigade in here. the rest is a lost cause. the toxic admins and their brokebrained cliques aren’t going anywhere.

to be clear, goons being shitheads with kys stuff has, from my remembrance, always been like when a clique will keep a depressed af fucker around to whack around. bonk em over the head. wait for somethin to happen. or if u bust into some thread where there is an obvious vulnerability. like if somebody had said kys to facetoucher cat b4 after she posted whatever they'd be permadead.

The only way this year could've felt more full circle and like nothing has changed is if Ralp was made admin again. Every part of the past two years might as well never have happened. I don't think anyone even noticed Lowtax owned this site and they'll probably start forgetting he sold it. Rock Chalk Jayhawk Go KU.
