Idk if astral is looking into this as part of some far future forums upgrade but currently as I understand it it's a complete pain in the rear end to do this

If you see a non-mod with it, chances are a) they're a former mod or b) they got it as part of a donation drive. Those are the only two ways I know of how people got them

Lowtax used to hand them out like candy whenever he felt like it but idk how the backend for it works

Anyway I don't really read gbs but my only piece of feedback for it is that apparently Derpies is still active on the forums, presumably on an alt he bought years before he got permaed, and probably still posts in gbs a lot because that's where >90% of his posts were on his main account.

Hi Derpies, please stop trying to join discord servers that you're banned from, :thanks:

No clue, unfortunately. I'm not really expecting anything to be able to be done about him unless he's dumb and outs himself, just felt like postin

Being a good ally by insisting that gay people treat aids the same way that Reaganites did in the 80s ftmfw

Why the gently caress are y'all dying on the hill of "no, wait, saying aids and gay is cool"?

What the gently caress is wrong with you?

Saying something is aids in the same way as saying something is cancer is not disparaging gay people, it's saying aids sucks rear end because it's a horrible disease that kills you, much like the posts that people are calling aids. In like a decade people will be doing the same thing with covid. Hope this helps.

Also the people having mini meltdowns about it are some of the biggest dipshits on this website and making them get mad over nothing is extremely funny, so I applaud the brave forums soldiers who have given their lives for the cause.

so many people crawling out of the woodwork to defend an edgelord, but where were they when the SSID goon got perma’d? nary a peep.

makes one wonder

These two things are exactly the same, you have cracked the case.

do you think that anywhere that bans posting slurs is punishing minorities specifically?

I genuinely don't believe you know what a slur is.

My GBS feedback is that Solefald seems like a decent mod, here's hoping the rest of them learn from example.

Yeah, please give your input.

GBS posters didn't break into their houses and force them at knifepoint to type out several discrete troll posts in the feedback thread, after being told not to by the mods. You're acting like posters have no agency, that this is somehow everyone elses fault for the posters poor decisions. Why you think mods punishing poo poo behaviour is "forums warfare" is incredibly bizarre too.

When people make bad posts other people will show up to mock them. That is how this forum has always worked. If you don't want your bad posts to be mocked the solution is to make good posts instead, not get insanely mad and cry to a mod to make them unable to mock you again.

Seth giving into this drivel is perfectly emblematic of the problem with gbs, namely that it's become a walled garden of its own weird subcommunity that treats everyone else as outsiders rather than being the general discussion subforum for everyone who posts on SA.


In short, gbs is aids.
