Lowtax pisses around on Twitter all day so I find it hard to believe he won't eventually cave in and make a new account.

It's also sure as fuck not going to make him spend more time on SA by depriving him of another distraction, so I wonder what he'll do with his time now.

He will cave in, I would put money on it. His Twitter account was how he grew a new personal audience for his YouTube channel and Patreon. Without continued audience growth through his Twitter account all of those will just die or become stagnant. SA isn't growing so any viewers he got from that are probably capped out.

Now, with a Suspended Twitter account that only means that you've received a temporary ban, correct? Or is a suspended account considered a perma?

Hmm thats a good point but i see a flaw, preventing that from happening would be the act of person acting in thier own selfiterest and making sound resonsible buinesses deceisions....we are talking about lowtax right?

Not yet. Lowtax is rolling with the punches at the moment. It's what he usually does when he first returns but it never lasts.

Thread has now derailed into a slaptfight between FAU and Trump thread posters, so bannings can't be far away.

This slapfight is pretty funny if you've been lurking SA recently.

A group of posters keep making a "Trump is Fine" thread. Every time a group of woke as fuck posters come in, melting down about Donald Trump while FAU probates most of the trump supporters then kills the thread.

It's up to like the sixth iteration. A few threads ago the woke crew cried to lowtax on twitter about the "nazi infestation" and he even came to the forums, said you can disagree with people and that there were no actual nazis and gave his personal approval to the existence of a positive trump thread.

But as usual the mods didn't give a shit what lowtax said and FAU has closed like 3 more since then. Refusing to allow a single positive trump thread on SA.

I'm enjoying the FAU callouts since the dude with thousands of posts espousing his extremely liberal ideologies in the debate forum is trying to pretend that there is no bias at play in his extreme crackdown on the single positive thread for donald trump on the entire forums.

Our inability to correctly dox FAU before the site got Kind Regards'd is an ongoing source of shame.
 
trump is fine thread and it's many iterations are indeed fine. There's the same 3-4 posters that shit up the Trump threads posting white noise garbage and literally sometimes just talking to themselves. Like one guy rambles on about anime and just quotes himself for pages.

One of the mods complained that almost all the reports in GBS come from that thread and the reports aren't even from the Trump posters themselves. lmao

Yeah, it's the same people every single time shitposting non-stop, spamming reports and melting down. That's how I first noticed the whole fight going on with these incredibly woke, literally shaking posters having months long tantrums. I didn't read SA for like four months and it was like I never left seeing pages and page and pages of the same posters being bitter about Donald Trump.

It's a shame that no singular post is really noteworthy, so you really just have to read way too much of SA to get the full extent of how big of babies these people are.

Weirdly enough the extremely liberal mod ignores all of them and gives the pro trump posters 1 month probations and refuses to allow the thread to exist.

Lol at lowtax trying to meet up with goons in 2017. That's going to be very embarrassing for him.

Also he won't make it past the weekend without making a new twitter account.

I hope he does, Goon meetups are a riot.

And yet the LOL at Trump thread is up to 2500+ pages with no gassing in sight.

Yup no bias at all there, nope.

Yep, that's the standard tactic for shutting down problematic threads. They've been doing it for years. Which is a great idea in a forum that's teetering on the edge of the abyss.
 
Lowtax really getting it in his thread:

OMFG how many people have said this EXACT SAME THING about SA:

I love how he sees nothing wrong with allowing his mods to ban users for whatever reason they want, yet the second someone does it to him he starts BAWWWing about it. @Lowtax: not even once.
