Maybe he went back to studying after working but that's probably way too optimistic by me. There are people older that went back and kind of build an new career on it tho, it happens if rarely. Yeah, yeah I know :optimistic: and all. The english/philosophy/arts degree is much more likely.

This is kind of what I have to believe. He probably spent a majority of that time living at home jacking off all day until he was 28.
 
LMO camping out the plinnet thread bugs me, his viture signalling about pink flamigos or black pather was annoying but jesus.

Does this guy not understand that people typically want something for their money? What incentive do all of these people have to pay Lowtax tens/hundreds of thousands of dollars on top of the forums registration fee?

Maybe this is Lowtax on a deep cover account.

He also doesn't seem to understand that Lowtax isn't looking for one-off funding. He wants/needs income month in, month out, year in, year out.

Anyone who considered the forums worthy of investment of large sums would likely want to buy them and run them themselves for a return on their investment. There's no pay-off in funding them so that Lowtax can make a passive income.
 
I for one thank these trannies for mutilating themselves, simultaneously removing their deleterious genetic material from the pool and providing subject matter for medical research that would otherwise be considered unethical.
 
I wonder how much the forums are even worth now cuz I don't imagine it is very much

Something around $50,000 would be a fair price. If you know what you’re doing you could easily profit at least five grand a month without much effort. Hell, put some real effort and 100k a year should be a breeze.
 
Whatever amount of money he gets for the forums, it isn't going to be enough to support himself for the rest of his life (and that's what he needs, because he's never going to work a normal job).
He's probably hoping that SA will somehow see a resurgence, which he was talking about a while back.

Of course, he's so moronic that he's literally banning the few people the site still has in the fucking thread where he's crying about twitter banning him.

And he's too lazy to work on the site himself, has no money to pay someone else to and the cretin that works on the site for free is part of the cabal that ensures that no one wants to register.

Preaching to the choir: Lowtax is fucked.

The only possible way that I could see him becoming wealthy again is if he embraces far-leftism and goes full scam artist on his cucks, turning them into paypigs.

Like, if he worked his ass off spamming links to SA and pushed some "we're the only place on the internet that's Nazi free" really hard. Then just went full DLC mode on forum features and charged monthly for basic features instead of one-time payments.

I could definitely see the shrieking tranny collective paying a monthly fee to have access to a
"transgendered support forum" and woke twitter activists wanking their ecocks to being part of a members-only activism forum.
And once these idiots are in and build their toxic networks they'll reliably pay every month to keep themselves in the loop.

A subscription would never work. The ideas been floated and even a yearly $10 fee was collectively laughed off.

If I was lowtax I'd do this:

1. Stop abusing pain killers and boxed wine

2. Move the user base to Xenforo and archive the current forum as is and offer it as a download for $10. It would be leaked in a day but he could still get something for it. The new forum will be filled with threads in days. I know he's terrified that a lot of people won't come to the new forum but 99% will.

3. Keep the $10 registration fee but include search, avatar, PMs, and other shit that should be free.

4. Bans and probations must be approved by lowtax. The only thing that will be punishable is post spamming and posting off topic. There will be a lot of hemming and hawing but the vast majority of goons won't go anywhere.

5. Allow people to pay $5 to put someone on probation for a day or pay $5 to remove a paid probation. A person can only receive one paid probation a week.

What he should have done when SA was still popular is split the forums into two sites - one for the SJWs and one for people who just want to shit post. Whatever direction he tries to take the forums now will be unpopular because the two main user groups hate one another and want the group to which they don't belong banished forever.

If Lowtax didn't want to post on his own site occasionally, going full on leftist would be the smart move. They'd absolutely pay to have a "nazi-free" space. You'd just have to make the sub fee a small amount because many of them are broke ass, but you could encourage them to gift subs.
 
Thats not a bad idea, Make it like a invite only, pay per secret club house. A hidden forum group with subs, that open to only the ideologically pure. ability to read costs 5$ ability to post cost 15$ rules are super duper strict. Imagine the tranny town house, communist cabin, shit posting shack etc.

The forums can be both clean and dirty

Then the camera pans back and we see him. Lowtax lays on the couch sleeping with an empty bottle of wine still in his hands, open bottle of ambien tipped over on the table.

Twas all but a dream.
 
The first step for Lowtax doing anything to make SA more successful is to stop involving himself.

He isn't going to expend any effort, doing anything. The only reason he is getting his osteoarthritis looked at is he can't tolerate the symptoms anymore because he ignored them for so long. Osteoarthritis is relatively common and he is so fucked up because he didn't bother getting it looked at when he had the money during his infinite amount of free time.

The forums are just like his body and he is going to ignore them until they quit working. This is incredibly evident due to the revenue falling drastically but Lowtax still refusing to do any work even though he knows the free ride will end eventually. He is still getting paid right now and isn't being forced to work so he isn't going to.
 
The thing is that Lowtax wants 2018 SA to have his 2004 userbase (the ones who were funny and generated content) and it's just not gonna happen.

I honestly don't think Lowtax likes having a forum full of shrieking socjus people, but that's what pays the bills so he deals with them. I don't think he wants to encourage SA to be some sort of tranny safe space, he wants it to be "old SA" despite the fact that "old SA" has been dead for the better part of a decade. But rebuilding it would be hard (arguably impossible at this point), so he just makes shitty posts and bans people instead.

tl;dr: I agree that Lowtax is incredibly lazy, but I don't think Lowtax is some sort of hardcore SJW like most of the remaining forums posters.

His response to NHK when they contacted him about the Slenderman thing is very telling. His knee-jerk response to what is likely the first contact from a major media outlet in years is to mock them for trying to talk to him. It's too much work for him to write a professional email. Why does anybody bother with giving him advice about how to keep SA lucrative? You could put him in charge of Instagram or Facebook and he would run those companies into the ground too, while sarcastically telling all of his shareholders "Oh sorry I forgot The Internet Is Serious Business"

Oh god lowtax got an email from NHK who is doing a thing on slender man and this is what he saidView attachment 391428
