Can't wait for every post to have a button that says "Misery!" in it where you can press it and the forums will auto-post AI generated depression

Hi - I've been posting in the Trump thread more and move over the last couple months, and they've been rather welcoming! It moves very fast, which is one reason why some people (nosy-neighbor types, mostly?) might dislike it.

The posters there are largely an amusing and irreverent lot with similar senses of humor and leftish politics. There are personalities that grate against each other and complain like a pair of roommate cats might, but the mood is generally one of levity intended to shitpost away the existential blues of modern life while also posting recent news stories and funny twitter posts and so on. "Main Character Syndrome" is something that doesn't last long within that group, as there have been historically many bans and burnouts from the self-aggrandizing-posting crowd that hung out in the trump threads in the past.

Dunno what the problem some have with it or its posters nowadays, other than it's insular enough with its poster-lore that I agree it's like a different sub-channel of CSPAM, like the channel with the cartoons under the newscorp's larger media umbrella.

AnimeIsTrash posted:

Someone in the pyf sagas thread noticed the goonfund and started asking questions, this lead to a QCS thread being made about it where people noticed more and more weird things. There definitely were weirdos who dislike CSPAM getting involved but I think a lot of the base questions about the fund were fair e.g. keeping track of funds and things like that. If you read the OG goonfund thread people made the same kinds of concerns and were flamed out of the thread. The previous goonfund thread was also derailed by someone questioning plinkey's gambling habits.

You can read the threads and make your own judgements.

Throughout goin fund discourse the UKMT D&D thread always lobbied to take the goonfund under their responsible care. Which yeah, it is responsible by fiduciary standards, but that makes it a bad goodfund because I want money for toys and dinner.

If I was in charge of goonfund I would spend down every last cent into anybody who gave fund receiving account information. For each poster I would run three forums searches

1) "I just bought"
2) "steam sale"
3) "retard"

And calibrate amount given vs amount asked for according to my findings.

I assume that "steam sale" means they would be more likely to get free money because it means they are thrifty
