Something Awful and Friends - The roller-coaster train-wreck embarrassing downfall of a Web 1.0 giant and its tick offspring like from Cloverfield

[Extremist Frank]

I wonder how emotionally invested into the forums posters like BBG are. He's made an average of 12 posts a day on it for more than half a decade.

You just answered your own question.

lol

Well played, FYAD. Well played.

 

[jace821]

LOL they're eating each other. Either way getting rid of BBG is a good first step.

 

[horse ceremonies]

the concept of keeping reaction gifs that match your identity or whatever is such an embarrassingly gay idea

 

[repentance]

To be honest, the last few pages of FYAD toying with the mods/admins before the thread was closed are pretty funny.

 

[HG 400]

Stop suggesting lowtax makes kiwis mods.

We don't need admin tools on their shitty website to be his hatchet men.

I can't believe we caused SA to meltdown

credit where credit is due, any time offsite shit like this pops up thats really detrimental to SA, fyad posters under alt names pop up and start supplying dox and shit

 

[OwO What's This?]

Update: Black Baby Goku's ban appears to be lifted yet again.

Nope the permaban icon just wasn't loading.

It doesn't take much to cause SA to melt down. It happens every few months with or without us.

Update: Black Baby Goku's ban appears to be lifted yet again.

Was there ever any doubt that would happen?

Not even a "free the motherfwiggin black baby goku" thread in sight, either.

I'm genuinely surprised Sid is still banned though.

Or make most of the main forums visible and have two-tiered registration which packages SA into "basic" which would be free and "full access" which would not. There are a ton of different models used by other forums. You could even have free members able to comment but not start threads, and mods could hand out upgrades to those who make good comments.

FAU closed the thread with this post. What an utter slimeball.

FAU locked it because KM came in and started making an ass of herself and posting stupid tumblr gifs with every 'zinger'. It was to stop her embarrassing herself any further, and thus making FAU look like a retard for recommending she be modded.

well shit the paywall is back up

i guess permabanning him was just the lowtax version of prepping his black bulls

He's their current website coder's friend, maybe even best friend.

He's quite capable of not only leaving them without a coder, but ripping out every single wire that makes the website work as he leaves.

 

[jace821]

BBG is still permabanned on my end. ZDR was supposedly the one who undid his permaban that Mrs. Lowtax gave this morning. If that's true he'll probably be giving Lowtax an ultimatum soon.

The only way a perma will stick is if Lowtax takes away the permissions of the other admins to lift permas.

Not even that. It's the CODER he's friends with. He can literally give himself permission to do whatever he pleases.

 

[Tea Leaf]

BBG still looks perma-ed to me.

Also maybe I'm wrong but over the years to be honest it feels like SA moderation has become more lax rather than stricter, but then I don't usually post slurs anyway

Hahaha is Lowtax's website going to be held hostage again like with Radium? lmao
