Maybe we should all be like that one guy in the Star Citizen thread years ago who kept a list of every poster he came across and noted down any personal information about them they revealed in their posts in like a huge spreadsheet or something.

Unless you meet someone on the internet they are just words, words that could have been by an intelligent (or in the case of goons, not) bot.

Markov chain some poo poo together, add a lol to the end, bam, internet people.

Nothing is real, everything is a lie, shitpost and burn the internet to the ground.

Honest answer, I'm guilty of this and I'm wrong a lot. Shitposts are always masculine in my head. Any time someone changes their name or avatar they're a dude again in my head until I figure out otherwise.

I'm a regular enough lady irl and my similarly aged co-workers are all dudes who know about SA, newgrounds, 4chan and early internet shenanigans, so I kinda still feel like I'm right most of the time.

Personally I prefer my ladies irregular, you know, with lumps.

The idea of goons.xls predates the game I'm pretty sure but I love that someone admitted to actually using one. I'm sure they weren't the only one though.

No, really. I think you can tell once you start to recognise a few usernames. I mean, there are posters that I would never, ever mistake for any other gender than what they claim to be and their posting style proves it.

Just smell the post OP. If it smells like socks and Mtn Dew it's a boy post and if it smells like roses and hairspray it is a lady post.

oh my God did that piss her off, it could have been insulting but I thought it was really funny how much it pissed her off.

It was SO STUPID we posted nothing alike.

I actually got probed for ban evasion as an alt of Picks when a mod listened to goons who assumed I was her. That mod did not last.

Whatever happened to Pick? Did she get perma’d or something?
