Well I found it highly entertaining. It's unfortunate that the internet no longer seems to require tough skin. I remember the days when people would sling insults at each other all day and then still keep coming back for more.
I apparently missed the action, because they just went through the thread and nuked everyone involved in the conversation, so I don't even know what happened in the interim, which is absolutely hilarious. The best part is that I'm betting if I hadn't addressed Lynx directly and said that I hate him/her/it then they probably wouldn't have done anything. I knew when I typed it that they'd have a panic attack and do something because they can't emotionally tolerate direct conflict, but going straight for the nuclear option really is sad. I generally avoid the forum because somewhere around 30% of all the posts in the first couple weeks of a new cour are just fucking assholes virtue signalling about how pure they are to have deep insights such as "rape is bad" or "it's wrong to molest children" (don't look at their anime lists, though). Beyond the usual spine-bending self righteousness, I get really worked up when they just have no respect whatsoever for the art.
Especially for the SJWs, it's just ridiculous and entirely ignorant of their own history. I was around back in the day when we were fighting for actual gay rights; not this modern nonsense of vague complaints about invisible issues that require totalitarian control to "solve". The movement back then drew so much energy from being free, artistic, and transgressive. It was all about saying no to bad rules and real oppression, but these assholes nowadays are just overgrown hall monitors. They oppose everything that actually brought about progress in the past, and they HATE art.
It's not acceptable. I'm going to do something about it. I'm going to get drunk and COMPLAIN ON THE INTERNET.
(But yeah, mods are like that just about everywhere. It's to be expected. They're actually a bit more tolerant here than in most places.)

It's a gift.

Wow, 3 mod types were on you there. Is that normal for this site?
Your response in the Skeleton Knight thread was spicier than my mother's jambalaya. Whew lad.
You can't distinguish between the quality of NGNL and Smartphone?
Are you Helen Keller?
