Ah the Order threads. Such good times. Hilarious.

Good luck wherever you go.

I just said I don't mind farewell threads And moderators don't do requested bans anymore.

Nah, he was supporting a single console. I can't be more toxic than that.

I am only posting reactionary. So if I get worse, that means worse things are happening that need to be addressed. It's really no surprise with the recent surge in console circle jerks.

You are growing on me.

He was supporting a single IP essentially which happened to be on PlayStation.

Now i mostly talk outside of VGC, rather than in the threads. Maybe it's been worse though Don't leave us too B00my!!

Don't worry, I won't be leaving. If anything, maybe i'll start posting more in-pursuit of some interesting discussions

We never agreed on anything but at least it was a unique kind of person. You also missed the days of vgking, an arche type of a fanboy, only one born each generation. He stealth edited a post (which can't be seen by the forum itself) to try to prove people wrong when they remembered what he once posted but Carl and me used google to make it apparent he edited posts so that it fits his narrative. Really good times.

It does sound it. Perhaps one issue, and no offense to mods at all since this is their job after all, is that i think the rules that mods enforce leave a collar wrapped too tightly around users. Sure, things that people say can be wrong, rude, uneducated etc. but perhaps the fun of being in a fourm like this is so people can themselves debate it and debunk what they're saying, which in the realm of debating is the most satisfying thing to do. With the rules in place now, doing that will just lead that user being shut-down and now it's encouraged a more passive-aggressive form of people showing their opinion, which i think leads to more frustration and due to its ambiguity if you try to pursue it it risks you getting banned. Just a thought of mine though from reading what you said.

Yet he was less toxic than what we have today. Isn't that crazy?

Because at his heart he was a kind person. Perhaps that doesn't apply to the other ones here.

Reactionary? You're not a microsoft's failed AI experiment, Tay. You're a free thinking individual responsible for your own thoughts and comments. If you're getting worse as a user then you're just getting worse as a user. That's fine if you want to do that but at least don't give some bs excuse for it.

Clearly some people feel more emotionally attached to specific forums where it may be there main source of meaningful social interaction, let him have his cathartic moment lol
