Board 8 > Why is the B8 discord so Toxic towards members?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I have it on good authority that the lot of you are simply sub-optimal users. It cannot be overstated how less than perfect you all are. If only b8 would heed the advice of its high quality users...if only b8 had high quality users...! Think on how glorious it would be. Alas, that world is not this one, and as a result you have brought this scathing commentary upon yourselves.

I mean I like Corrik more than most people who come to board 8 and I think it got pretty dumb in the politics topic how some "super cool libs" were trashing him but I am also an asshole sometimes myself so who can say for sure?

would like to take this opportunity to just put out a general reminder that at the very beginning of the politics topic, american white nationalist lawmaker steve king argued that the only meaningful contributions to society in the global north were from white people, and corrik was like 'yes obviously this is true.' then corrik denounced black lives matter as being an explicitly more racist movement than blue/all lives matter. then he called gay and trans people unnatural. then he said gay and trans people shouldn't be in public. then he said children shouldn't be taught about gay and trans people. and then he remained this exact same person for the next three years. so like, to anyone offering up this sort of "but who's the real bad guy here" defense of corrik, know exactly what you're defending, and ask yourself if you believe these things as well, or if you believe this is disqualifying behaviour, and if not why.

About half of that is true. Congrats!

Less than half actually. But at least a couple things were true.

If any of that is true then uh that's kinda yikes...

<_<

By the way I would never go after a stupid person the way I go after Corrik if he wasn't proven and admitted to be a complete piece of shit. I hate that we still have to be among him here even after ignoring him.
---

oh right a new corrik account means I have to re-tag him with kindergarten trans riot squad

even if I can't see the posts/tag, that's was a quote for the ages

american white nationalist lawmaker steve king argued that the only meaningful contributions to society in the global north were from white people, and corrik was like 'yes obviously this is true.'

- altered / misleading.

then corrik denounced black lives matter as being an explicitly more racist movement than blue/all lives matter.

- This one is true. Black Lives Matter is racist just by the name itself. It is obviously less racist than all lives matter. They say there is an implied (too) to say why it is not racist. The problem is the messaging is racist. And, some have used this messaging as reasoning behind murders of police officers.

then he called gay and trans people unnatural.

- This is almost true. I said homosexuality and transgenderism are unnatural.

then he said gay and trans people shouldn't be in public.

- completely untrue.

then he said children shouldn't be taught about gay and trans people

-context cut out. I said children shouldn't be taught about homosexuality and transgenderism until they are at the appropriate age to be taught about sex itself.

This type of slander is an outrage! Lol.

Idk why Steiner even blocked me. I clearly permanently reside in his head already. He can't block that.

He goes through so much effort to try and provoke me it is funny. I can't even be bothered to mark his posts due to lack of caring.

Wait... the completely public chatroom with a link in the sticky and a search function.... isn't.... secret .... OH GOD

Ask yourself: Do you think Team Rocket Elite or RaptorLC or Error would go in Discord and get pissed off over someone being happy a feedback ticket worked?

well, raptor would just post about it on the site at least

That's your opinion. I have mine. Why would you be teaching children about differences in sexuality before you deem them appropriate to know what sex is?

beings trans isn't "sexuality" and saying "some boys like other boys and some girls like other girls" isn't teaching about sex

You are not teaching what homosexuality is then.

I liked other boys when I was a boy. They were muh friendz.

Trans is sexuality as your sex is male or female. Viewing your gender as different than your sex is a difference in sexuality.

I mean, if yinz want to have the same, tired debates again so be it. But, make a separate topic for it. Hardly the place for it here.

Doubt it but okay.

is teaching young kids about heterosexuality also wrong then?

You shouldn't be teaching kids about sex at all until the age you teach about sex.

That said, this was in reference to teaching it in school by the way.

if that post was deleted i hope the moderator named one stupider

how many continents are there

if you answer this right then youre a head up ;))))))))))))

also if you fucks are surprised that a) people dislike annoying people and b) people bitch about people who arent in a current discussion then maybe you should try participating in society before C) igh disCOORDdddddddd is th3 worst LOL aim was beturd

since d) cliches have always been a thing in any sort of society. surprise. a message board is a society.

also e) the clincally insane actually argue the same shit expecting a different result. maybe look in the mirror before whining about people's shit opinions. i dont agree w/ a myriad of opinions i happen to contaminate my brain with but i keep it mostly to myself. if you're in an isolation chamber that just happens to hate on someone who consistently eggs on people who is to blame. you're both idiots. try using human discourse: if you disagree with someone on an idea perhaps do not engage them on the idea. if they want to engage with you on the idea then disengage

f) did you know that people of completely different ideologies on life can get along together. ive gotten along with person X and with person Y from time to time despite thinking alot of the stuff they say are pretty dumb. and when i say dumb i dont mean actual important shit; i mean more like "water isn't wet cuz i say so lol nerd."

of course the dipshits that consistently grief themselves are probably actually more to blame. i broke mostly out of the cycle (sans m4 rip) but like i dont know maybe getr a new hobby who knows my hobbies suck maybe i should whine about people all the time too in my precious free time that i dont have now

g) this topic is literal shit and honestly any enjoyment of it should be checked by a counselor or the sort cuz god damn we are shut ins

h) lol im leonhart4 and disc0ed i%$ f)(IR losersz aim the best Im cool

i) see? i need better hobbies than to reference some nerd whose gimmick is anti chatrooms when he ran a fucking save my shithead with pointy hair

j) i like this shit too, so i think we're all tainted
---

ive never identified with a post more in my life thanks gravy
---

im the fucking worst so you are fairly welcome

k) ps m4 gravy outside containment was probably the worst dude on the board literally ever so maybe bitch about me from 3 years ago cuz god damn i was awful. so if you thought that X or Y's stupid shit was dumb well god damn maybe metal gear solid 2 should retrieve logs on IRC (lmao he cant, nerd lord) and shame me with those

or i guess the latter half is on discord, but again who the fuck cares. being a fucker on an alt is actually the dumbest shit yoy can do. maybe have a spine and tell the people youre pissed at youre pissed at them. oh wait, youre just a nerdlord with no hobbies. i am too btw, im just upfront about this shit when i had the free time to search fucking logs for X Y and Z

gonna eat some chicken noodle soup and probably shit post on my phone elsewhere for another few more months or something who knows i got a new pc a few weeks ago so maybe ill broaden my horizons outside of two chatrooms (doubt it. this topic is hilarious to me.)

Steiner posted...

I'm not sure what ulti is talking about in this topic, as per usual, but I think he's called Corrik mentally disabled like 5 times which is top draw stuff

Oh I thought he was talking about his own issues. Wasn't that a thing? And foolmo got sig wiped for quoting ulti calling himself that?

Am I imagining that whole thing?
---

l) stop discounting peoples values, as absurd as they may be. harken back to a previous bullet point: if you disagree who cares. i have had people try to sway me for idea X or more important idea Y, but guess what. i hold different values. youre wasting your time

m) unfortunately the cycle doesnt break because of f) so enjoy being annoyed at random dudes on the internet with a recognizable handle.

im done fuck

also doodlmoron shilling his vaporware for a trip to hawaii to meet george rr martin's sentient excised blubber was annoying as fuck despite f00lmoran providing nothing of note ever (which is a good thing) when he could just take a trip himself was annoying as hell and im very glad Lopan "logen penn" logan Pen modded it like the time i impersonated him signing him up for some random rp session

This board has always had a bit more edge than not, but thats just the demographic here. Board 8 has some strong personalities and a lot of depressed/cynical people. Most of the users who insult other users also hate themselves at times. What Im getting at, is that its not coming from place of superiority most of the time. Most of the time.

Im not saying this as a negative, Im just stating it as a fact of the matter. Past polls on this board asking about peoples General happiness levels and outlook have revealed as much.

This board just attracts that kind of group. I would say maybe there are 6 users on here that are at a good or above level of mental health. Im not claiming Im one of those 6 either. Anxiety and depression out the wazoo. Its becomes much more manageable after I met my wife and moved to Colorado, but its still a challenge.

if you read the screenshots, that's just not what this is. it's two users being talked bad about out of hundreds of us. a lot of the posts about ulti aren't even bad. it's amazing that this narrative has managed to stretch to 4 pages.
---

Oh youre absolutely right. Im just saying it as a general thing. It seemed like the OP was also kind of implying thats the climate here in general. The two users that are being talked about are ones known for getting a rise out of people.

Yes. It is the best thing you can do in life obviously.

The best.



It's like people think posting the same thing 400 times is fun.

my memory of the trolling rule is topics designed to instigate flame wars (this one, corrik's stupid ff7r one) was the definition of trolling and the people responsible should be the ones punished. kinda weird that me calling out blatant trolling is what gets punished nowadays :)
---

Wow gravy those posts may be the best ones on B8 by anyone since Lemonberry Splash
---

(a dude is constantly arrested for endangering everyone's life for drunk driving and almost nothing has ever happened to him) I love rule followers and love punishment for rule breakers and think it's like, totally fuckedup when people judge others for their behavior!!!

Also when I'm a dick it's a joke and my personality but when other people shit on me it's unfathomable and selling your soul to be popular!

Man, we shit on @WiggumFan267 way more than Ulti or Corrik.

Not falling for the two users who keep getting mentioned, if you mean that. But there is a lot of name dropping in general, and communities that focus too much on the "who" rather than the topics aren't really for me. Most topics here aren't so bad though, but when it gets into stuff like this...Eh. It sounds like the Discord does that a lot.

Question: when you see an article saying "Avengers fans FURIOUS at Black Widow's hair in latest movie" which uses like three somewhat irritated tweets to prove its point, do you believe that to be truly representative of Avengers fans?

Because that's essentially what this is.
