My favorite thing about FYAD is that they have a 127 page thread on how CSPAM are obsessive weirdos. I enjoy that kind of goofy irony

Yeah but we're supposed to be the obsessive weirdos. Its in character here.

Anyways, I enjoy that FYAD is trying to learn more about our ways by becoming more like us. Although I don't quite think they've got the spirit of 'these people make vast quantities of money and dictate the boundaries of my existence and the only recourse I have against them is getting mad on the internet' yet. FYAD still gets touchy over the time everyone called them racist sexists and deleted their forum. Seems like a weak posting lineage.

yeah, i see that occasionally, and think it's bad posting.

but it's rare for someone to find one of these low-follower accounts, post one dumb thing they said, and then go through all their posts for other dumb things, and keep up with all their new posts for dumb things so that they can tell their friends about it

in fyad, if you're friends with the mods it's cool to baselessly call out specific users as pedophiles. but if you're not friends with the mods, like me, and say, "hey it's not surprising that people post cartoon child porn in the edgy forum that thinks slurs are funny," you get banned. lmao hell yes

Getting obsessive about some rando's Twitter account is specially discouraged by the forum's rules about doxxing, which are reposted in the C-SPAM rules thread

nevertheless, sometimes there are some funny one-off tweets by random people who have no followers that are funny enough to post, such as this one I found that was deleted two minutes after being posted:
