FAU trying to tell people off will never not be funny. He's like that creepy uncle attempting to groom kids.

How Do You Do, Fellow Goons.
 
The UK and Europe threads in D&D are nice and salty today.

His girlfriend sounds like a definite winner, too.

Why give them something to find and ban you for so you lose that ability?

I've still got access to my account. If they somehow give a shit enough to look up who I am and want to come up with some piss poor excuse to ban me because I also post here then...whatever. I'll post the banme reason and laugh at them. Doesn't bother me either way as it's :10bux: that went the way of the dodo looooooooong ago. Everytime I log into that site I'm constantly reminded as to why I have made approx. .05 posts per day in the last 3 years. It's interesting to sometimes read the bullshit that goes on over there for a few laughs when I need a "well today may have been rough but at least I'm not as bad as THIS", but any sense of joining in for a "fun" discussion/mock/photoshop thread died long ago.
 
FAU is just so lost in his own bizarre fantasy world. Funny photoshops never got old, we still do them all the time here and it's fun as hell.

What gets old is being told "Hey, let's do funny photoshops but here's a mile-long list of people and genders and religions and fetishes and political views you're absolutely not allowed to mock or make light of. Also absolutely nothing offensive period. And mods will decide what offensive means. And remember even if other goons love it, the mods might not and you'll get banned."

Or as FAU would say, "Maybe you just suck, on a website where we're purging sucky people" or whatever.

Well it's a reasonably safe bet he has a kill-switch of some type that nuked all his posts and crashed the forum threads his posts were in that one time.

Nah. All he did was go into the SQL DB and execute a "delete where userid = blah" on the posts table.

The bug was because doing it that way does not update thread postcounts.

Imagine being so pathetic that you have to convince yourself to settle for a counterfeit female.

Even if you're so deep in the closet that you're finding presents, that still doesn't explain away routine suicidal threats.

Oh but these are goons. From spending time in the TMT they know that troons are true and honest women, who had to fight every step of the way and bravely jump through hoops and battle for their womanhood, unlike those icky, overprivileged CIS women who were just born with their vaginas.

Troons are heroes, and it's an honor to date such a brave warrior.

That Trans Megathread is insane. Unless it got shut down finally. Been a long time since I checked it out. I mostly got my troon thread drama from reading SS.
 
Photoshop threads died because Lowtax stopped bothering to update the front page. Getting your work featured like that used to be really cool and inspired people to do the best work they could, because if you did well it would get exposed to a really big audience.

Nowadays though, Lowtax has reached such a pinnacle of laziness and demotivation that he can't even be bothered to exploit other people's work for clicks.
 
People talked about PewDiePie posting on SA and getting regularly banned for absurdly minor things but nobody posted screencaps. A lot of us don't have SA accounts you know. I sincerely doubt the real PDP has time for that shit.

Looked like he'd been posting since before he got big, also SA was where LP pretty much started at so it'd make plenty of sense that it was him.

He's posted sporadically on SA for several years, in various forums. One of the most recent bullshit probations was when you had this winner of a human being in E/N:

Pewds didn't always have that avatar either, but holy shit do they make sure he keeps it.

It's embarrassing to think these were the same people I got my views of life and politics from in my teens and early 20s. Glad I saw that place going downhill and didn't turn out the same way.
