They say, "you mean it's just sounds?" thinking that for something to just be a sound is to be useless, whereas I love sounds just as they are, and I have no need for them to be anything more than what they are.

A lot of you goons sure have been, and are, unrelentingly enthusiastic about dissing certain dead people.

Though I'm pretty far Left, I follow no political path solely, and unlike many of the Left, I admit the Right are sometimes, err, right. They got the concept of "cancel culture" correct. It exists, and of course that admission is not politically correct. The same goes for the concept of political correctness itself! SA Forums have been called by some "the last bastion of political correctness on the internet." True, IMO, for some goons/threads/popular opinions here.

Personally I see no need to cancal Lowtax. He already cancelled himself. :rip: And like it or not, though, from ex-partner accounts, he very regrettably commited occasional act of domestic violence, he's nonetheless a large part of Forums history. It was what it was, he was what he was, and as well as being a bad partner, he was the founder of these very Forums, and also was funny for a while like two decades ago.

I don't have any spare time to debate all this further ITT, and I know it will get some angry responses, but I figured it was time someone said it. Peace.

I think it's funny that Lowtax called Chris Hardwick a piece of human garbage while doing the same (if not worse) things to his partners that he accused Hardwick of doing

What does a like list even do? I get that an ignore list removes the messages from the poster, but a Like list? What?

I used to run a vbulletin forum and the buddy list is just legacy from that. I bet it's infected with radium code that breaks poo poo and it's not worth touching.

On your user control panel you can see if buddy listed people are online. It doesn't work on the apps though only through browser.

Since I joined this forum in 2007 I have never even heard anyone mention the buddy list. Does anyone actually use it?
I used it SO HARD, I have like 50 people in it. It is hard to know exactly when I stopped using it, but I was definitely still using it in 2006 because I remember adding everyone cool I met at GoonCon (in 2005 also) to my Buddy List so I could remember their handles for future GoonCons. Well 2006 was my last oops oh well

It is also "fun" to click people's names in your buddy list and see almost all of them stopped posting around 2007

On the other hand the fact the mods got so offended as to immediately kneejerk ban the few actually funny people back then is in itself funny.
