Make that three accidental suicides. TheSwami, or Zac Bertschy of Anime News Network relapsed into alcoholism after realizing how much everyone hated him and that he was nothing but a bully as much as his abusive dad was. He was so unliked and unknown to anyone outside of the ANN gossip web, Null announced his death on the happenings banner feed and no one gave a shit other than weeb wars enthusiasts to look at his post mortem thread. Zac then later died from trying to break the world record of downing as much Skyy Vodka as he could when Covid hit.

I totally forgot Zac was an SA user.

I guess we better hope @MarzGurl doesn't eat herself to death, because we'll probably get blamed for that.
 
So is anyone on SA bothered by the mods checking CC info like that? There are legions of freaks there who post essays about their fucked up lives, and the forum mods have announced that they have access to every bit of private information they shared at the back end and are willing to act on it for something as stupid as banning a guy who's never getting out of jail.
 
Holy shit, just yesterday I was checking out SA purely out of curiosity to see if it was still around. Sure enough somehow it fucking is, and I saw a threads talking about some latest happenings like new games and what have you. Come today and a user is ousted as being a fuckin child murderer. I guess that's one way to let people know your rotting corpse of a website is still here (while you're still rotting 6 ft under).
 
How about instead of wishing he gets put in the poopy nigger rape dungeon for all eternity we wish that he gets dumped in an empty field with the poor kid's dad and dad gets a shotgun with birdshot shells? One less retard, dad gets some closure, and the people who really love buttrape get outed if they want him in prison instead of dead
 
Matthew Princess protects sites that snuff little children and he (probably) jerks off to the idea of children being shot.

I'm sure Matthew Princess will personally write a seething brain-rotten blog article decrying this heinous crime and dropping the site like his mum dropped him on the head in a public toilet.

I don't, even have the words or mental capacity at the moment to describe how fucking sad this is.
It really does feel like the world is going to shit.

To recap:

SA kill count: 8+
Reddit kill count: 10+
KF kill count: 0

Yet which site had itself removed from the Wayback Machine, removed from 5+ different domains, and get attacked in the media, Wikipedia, and on every blue check mark Twitter account? :thinking:

*Kevin Dawes/Caro - mentally ill schizo poster and war tourist/wannabe medic in Libya and Syria. Other goons constantly tried to get him to take medication, but he always refused. Posted his home videos on Youtube during its wild west days, appeared to kill a guy with a Dragunov rifle in one of those videos. True extent of the mess he caused probably impossible to be accurately measured.

Caro is alive. He disappered into the syrian prison system for a while when BellingCat catamite Brown Moses aka Elliot Higgins aka Elliot Piggins ratted him out to Turkish authorities who let their Syrian counterparts have him. He was gone for several years, it was assumed he was dead but he resurfaced and was released to his family.
OTOH someone who interacted with him said several years in Syrian prisons did about what you'd expect to him, so his body is alive but he is no longer an insane war tourist and youtube combat medic - can you really call that living?

Genuine question, how did this forum even take off during the days of Web 1.0 if you gotta pay 10 dollars just to be allowed to participate in it?

The $10 used to keep out the riffraff while being trival for anyone employed. It meant you had to have a credit card (so not a stupid 14 year old) and couldn't just keep reregging. Trolls and useless posters shitting up threads were banned so being a fucktard cost them money.
The result was an edgy forum full of posters from all sorts of backgrounds, and when the internet was new talking about the weird shit they found on the internet. You had a guy who had just gotten out of the French Foreign Legion, someone who worked on a cruise ship, a guy convinced he was a reincarnated alien dragon :smaug:. And of course computer touchers who could answer mundane to enterprise level computer questions.
The hardware build-out threads for PCs used to be excellent.

This was all burned down as the admins powertripped and let trannies & commies infest and take over.

As was said in the Lowtax thread, he was the wrong person with the right idea in the right place at the right time.

Is there any other website (other than Craigslists) that has spawned as many murderers as SA?

I don't even think that /pol/ qualifies because while they might dump manifestos there, doesn't mean they were active posters.

Shit, even on the Darkweb or websites specifically made for serial killers, I don't think they've had as many members go out and kill people as goons have.

Stormfront, and it's (unfortunately) beating SA by a wide margin. As for the killers themselves:
  • Richard Baumhammers - Shot dead 6 people.
  • Buford O'Neil Furrow - Shot dead a mailman after shooting up a Jewish daycare center.
  • Ian Andrew Bishop - Beat his older brother to death with a hammer because he thought his brother was gay.
  • Richard Andrew Poplawski - Killed 3 responding Pittsburgh officers and wounded 2 more officers.
  • Wade Michael Page - Killed 7 and wounded 3 at a Sikh temple before shooting himself.
  • Luca Rocca Magnotta - Dismembered a Chinese immigrant.
  • Curtis Boone Manyard - Killed his ex-wife and wounded his stepdaughter before killing himself.
  • James Leshkevich - Killed his wife and later hung himself.
  • J.T. Ready - Killed his ex-girlfriend, the girlfriend's daughter, granddaughter, and fiance, before killing himself.
  • Anders Behring Breivik - Committed the 2011 Norway Attacks which killed 77 and injured over 300 (He only posted 4 times on the website)

Who the fuck is racist against Sikhs??

I've known various retards and even some people with an education irl who thought that Sikhs were either Hindus or, even more stupid considering the history they share, Muslims.
I could see a white supremacist dumb enough to shoot randos also being unworldly enough to go "turban? must be one of dem allahu akhbar types".
