He ate a 100,000 hour probation, someone with archives will have to screencap it.

Though he's about 2/3 of the way through his probation, maybe in about 4 year's time he'll make a great return.

It's not as good as you might hope.

Edit: Also I don't really remember this guy's history, I remember him as being an idiot and mentioned a few times but I wasn't paying attention. Honestly, if you stick to certain subforums there's a good chance you'll never see any of these people.

Gonna turn this place into the newest incarnation of SASS

Weren't the SASS userbase infamously pathetic, even moreso than the people they were complaining about?

I think the one decent thing to come out of it was that the guy who ran it has ended up in some pretty interesting videos because of being interviewed about some of his trolling shenanigans, like when he managed to get news media to introduce the term "Goatse" to their viewers without knowing what it really was.

Oh god yes. Imagine a forum that existed solely to whine about a gay dying comedy forum. It's like Autism Inception.

I've never cared if people hate SA, but if you defend SASS you've basically lost all credibility in my eyes. SASS is basically a bunch of EXTREMELY bitter crybabies.

Some of their doxxing on the SA mods have been good stuff (specifically Ozma and aatrek), so I'll give them that much. That's it, though.
 
Not to white knight for the honor & dignity of SASS posters, but

Entirely misses the context that SASS was an off site replacement for an SA subforum that existed solely to doxx SA's userbase.
 
The SASS talk is even weirder because @Lowtax (SA's Owner) and @Dog-O-Tron 5000v5.0 (SASS's Current Owner?) both came together and agreed that running their own respective forums are hard; and their own respective user bases are complaining shitheads and found middle ground here in this very thread (Start on Page 67 or so).

Kiwi Farms - bringing peace to SASS and SA, next Palestine and Israel.

The doxxing was the good part. If they'd stuck with that instead of whiny "I GOT BANNED BY _______ WHAT A JERK AM I RITE" threads, I wouldn't have as much disdain for SASS.

good doxxing - bitching about SA = Kiwi Farms, anyway

I give Null 18 months.
 
Looks like a bunch of GBS guys, including a bunch of (perma?)banned ones, have set up a new offsite and have been spamming it in GBS.

Just another small SA note that most passersby don't get at first glance and probably let's you know the state of the forums - Posting a picture of Krusty the Clown or making any reference to "Grill the Meats" is a probatable/banable offence on SA. So you would need to sign up for a different website to post pictures of Krusty the Clown without getting banned.

Take a second and just imagine getting banned from a paid website for posting a picture of Krusty but that same website asking you to create content to get people to visit the website. No wonder @Lowtax likes it better here.

@Lowtax hasn't been here for a while. He knows he'd have to deal with all the people asking him about what exactly David Kelly did to his children.
