Oh man I sure love this forum I've been using for a decade and a half, spent nearly a hundred dollars for accounts with avatars, user titles, and possible unbans, but there's five ads each saying exactly one word a piece and now I think it's the time to call it in, boys.

So lemme get this straight. He is asking for someone to work for him for free to do something he could learn on his own. He has no knowledge of these banner ads despite them being uploaded to his site and getting money for them, until someone directly contacts him. Apparently they were in heavy rotation, so he is basically saying he does not read his forums at all.
Do you think lowtax has no free time because he...got a job?

Ps,
Anyone who would touch his website code is out of their fucking mind. He has shown repeatedly that he is willing to throw anyone under the bus to avoid taking responsibility for anything.

For "job" read "24 hour alcoholism and sleeping pill habit".
 
you gotta hand it to lowtax though, he has the ability to get goons to do 99% of the work required to keep his site running and gets to keep 100% of the profits. Even rubbing this fact in their faces by admitting he can’t even be bothered to READ the forums doesn’t keep the sycophants from volunteering at every opportunity.
 
I think Lowtax forgot that the forum and site itself was at its most popular and profitable when it was all about the things he says totally never existed and shouldn't be there.
 
Personally I think Lowtax is sick to death of the place and doesn't care so long as it keeps him in ambien and wine coolers. He knows it's not sustainable in the long term but depression and addiction kill your motivation.

I genuinely feel sorry for him. He seems a nice dude and a genuinely funny writer but he clearly has demons and an inability to make good decisions.

I used to think that but he developed a shitty sjw attitude where he is the victim of everything and nothing is his fault.

I wish Lowtax's Twitter was still up so I could show you how wrong you are.

I remember he had some tweet during I wanna say Ferguson riot about how he was considering voting for trump.


also his SJW shit is only a way for him to try to get trendy justify his shitty spot in life. Back when he was really pulling in the money he was a libertarian
 
Lowtax didn't remove ads until he saw this coming on the rotation today lol

(Edit: I'm mistaken, it's still in the rotation.)

Of course it is, thats money and yeah lowtax is apathetic and lazy it took days of ree ing to end the faggot ads.

I wonder what the option are is for sassin the mods with this, would low tax keep deleting the adds he hates work, but he likes money and i wonder how hot the mods would get with people saying things that just cant punish.

Of course zen death robot would just stop his current work on repair...ing the forums and implement a fix.

Isn't it just a single cost to put a banner into the rotation for a month? Lowtax wins by deleting ads, the suckers already paid up.

yes but do you think lowtax i able/willing to stand on 24/7 banner ad watch? remember its his woke mod team kept in power by zdr that push all that hug box shit.

his mod team will have to demand his fucking cell number and ree at him 24/7 to take shit down, omg it would be like a job where he gets paid to take down ads
 
Forgot to post this yesterday, but with the joking mention of Lowtax charging to use the smilies as a way to make extra money, I figured I'd make a quick post about them. If you're a goony enough goon to the point you've made your own smilie and want to add it to the roster, well you can. For the low, low price of just $29.95.

Notice in the fine print that your $30 smilie can be removed at will. Also mods and admins can add their own (or those of asskissers) for free. Not sure if it's viewable for non-members, so I screencapped the full current master list of smilies. Most are animated, so if they look weird that's why.

That's a whoooooole lot of 30bux. Especially when you consider how many are basically single-use and only relevant in a certain thread/certain time period. And half are probably considered "problematic" by now.

Also, that Kiwi Farms ad is still up and links directly to this thread.

Fucking beautiful.

You're not wrong, but I guess for me it boils down to the usual thing:
A SA account is $10. $10 is a pretty low price to go have a captive audience of snowflakes to trigger. Because I have a job, I could afford to buy a new account every day. If there was a "Save the Children" type subscription only for triggering troons where for $200 a month I could ensure a whole community of mentally ill males were given daily reminders that they are actually males and they are pointlessly destroying their bodies and lives, and provide me with a newsletter with the choicest metldowns, that'd be a pretty good entertainment bargain, tbqh.

But at the end of the day, no matter how good the salt, how melodious the screeching.... when you buy SA stuff, you're giving Lowtax money. That sort of dirty doesn't come off with soap and water.
