Can we all just admit that @Lowtax has acquitted himself competently here and quit pretending that shit-talking him is something like shooting Billy the Kid?

No, some of us can't because his lies are blatant and easily disproved.

Go to SA's Leper Colony and you'll see page after page of people being Probated or Banned for saying things that are even vaguely politically incorrect or for making innocuous jokes about SJWs or for just saying things that aren't in-line with current leftist trends. You'll also see Fire getting his alts banned again, lol.

Danger Mahoney just got a permanent ban on his nine-year old account for saying he didn't believe that mods were harassed or doxxed because there was no proof.

People are probated/banned for criticizing Clinton or making jokes about stupid SJW bullshit all the time.

And, yeah, about Something Sensitive being an unreliable source - they almost always post proof of the stuff that they're saying and anyone can go to SA and check. They're the ones that outed the literal child-rapists on SA. I don't even agree with a lot of their political/racist stuff but insinuating that they're lying is just being dishonest. And Lowtax thinks that if you'd get to know him you'd see all the claims are bullshit, strange, then, how his ex-wife considers him a woman-hater who despised the forums and the people on them.

Pretty much everyone who posts here on Kiwi Farms would earn a ban on SA for the things that they've said here.
Using SJW as a slur? BANNED Being ableist? BANNED. Misgendering trans people? BANNED. Voting Republican? BANNED.

To be fair, he did dress up as Apollo Creed, so he knew he was going to die in the ring.
Now that shit was funny.

In his defense, it's not like he's in charge of Somethingawful.

Hahahaha, so you've talked to my ex-wife? Weird, because she utterly loathes SS. Also strange she would say I hate women, since I'm married again. But hey, if you read it on the internet, it must be true!

Rrrrrrrrrrrrage on!!!
 
Also sorry if I am pissing you off Lowtax. I have a lot of admiration for you for the way you began and maintained SA waaaaaaay back in the day, dealing with non-existent banner ad revenue and hypothetical bus crashes. Finding a way to exist in the post-bubble era and all. I just wish that you still put that effort into maintaining the forums as a long term priority instead of something to briefly tinker with every few months.

There's a lot of stuff going on behind the scenes that we don't talk about. For example, we spent almost a year prepping to move from hardware to the cloud, and we've been working on getting everything stabilized there up until recently. Now we're looking into data migration to another forum software package and moving to Amazon's cloud hosting services. So we're having to go through and audit a shitload of code and figure out how much work and money and time this is gonna take.

I'm sorry, I don't recall ever making a known pedophile an admin, could you please refresh my memory as to when that occurred? My brain ain't so good due to all that boxed wine and ambien...

Yeah "don't recall"

None of us knew his real name until you nice folks at SS doxed him, as we generally do not dox or do criminal background checks on TV forum mods.

Abe was going to Star trek conventions
with him. It's easy to believe you knew nothing about Aatrek. Your claim that no one else so much as knew his name is less believable.

I don't think you're lying, just that you're not even aware at least one of your other mods was hanging out with him in real life and had posted photos of that.
 
Lou Wrong said:
Neither were admins. Lowtax is technically correct in that while several mods were later outed as pedophiles (and not immediately demodded either) none of the admins ever were.

There are three there, this also doesn't include Eleanor "Eggplant Wizard" Jefferson who wrote some weird shit. Little did I know that there was underaged "The Sims" RP and shit, but thanks to Something Awful's moderation team, I now do. Sure, he says "admins" or "I knew" but we all know these are just weasel words.
