Not sure where to post this but the American prison system is pretty fucked so this comm will do. Cool/weird thread to read. Highlights:
youtube does look cool. i have used it a little but i get a lot of suggestions that i don't like, like right wing stuff and i dont know why.
my cousin told me to check out the reddit site but i didn't like it. he said this place might be better and i've been readind a little here and i like the conversation form here more than the reddit thing.
honestly though and many of you might not believe it but i am a happy person now. and after many years of not seeing a single tree i can enjoy sitting on my mom's porch and watching the birds. i like that a lot and it brings me peace.
Wow. I don't normally feel that young but learning about all this makes me feel like I'm a baby :blob-no-thoughts:
Thanks for the info comrade! :meow-hug:
Every time SA ejected a subgroup of its own, there was a significant chance that those banished people would make something worse somewhere else. 4chan was banished weebs that were banished for posting cartoon child porn, for example.
When they banned doxxers they set up Kiwifarms.
That stain never fully washed away. SA's been associated with K!w!farms type nazis ever since.
:what-the-hell: If only we could go back in time to stop the SA admins banning them to prevent the creation of the chans

Probably right, although I think it couldn't have been worse so I still say we would still try lol
If they were mercilessly dunked on by the rest of the community for long enough, I don't know, maybe they'd have shutted the fuck up instead of finding an exile hideout to become worse. :bloomer:
:stalin-approval: No worries, I was a pretty late comer to SA myself and I found it in 2010! It's interesting to see how the internet evolves into what it is now.
Oh and :mcmansion: is from an SA thread too, an absurdly incompetent DIYer posting his home renovation project.
why are they all so insufferable.
Because they're power posters who never moved on from a 25 year old internet forum started by an edgelord I suppose.
Only thing I did online in 2010 was use like google and wikipedia, and play MMOs, I think :meow-melt: . I just constantly read books instead (honestly I should go back to that, my mental health would probably be better :sadness: )
The truest thing ever posted on SA is the site tagline:
The internet makes you stupid
Too right, but is life worth living without shitposting? :garf-troll:
:party-sicko: (that's based on a SA emote too)
A lot of Bethesda devs were SA posters, even posting entire articles like the now-ancient one about "asshole physics" in Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, specifically about the capability of being an asshole with the physics engine.
