    Anyone who’s spent 15 years on 4chan has no business calling anyone stupid, to be totally fair

      Just because I’m a dumb fucking idiot doesn’t mean other people aren’t idiots too. Game recognizes game.

      let’s give him the benefit of the doubt that he maybe did a few other things during those 15 years. like maybe he went outside sometimes. maybe even had a job.

    Complains about toxic community they’re leaving

    Proceeds to be toxic in new community and gets pissy when they’re banned.

    They’re so indoctrinated they run straight back to the cesspool when they’re confronted with their own toxicity.

    Seems like good moderation. A weeks-old account taking to personal attacks getting temp banned is a good thing. They’re usually dodging a ban, but catching channers as collateral is a pleasant benefit.

    A speed run technique to get shadow banned on reddit is to create a new account and then immediately message /u/spez saying

    “YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DID TO AARON.”

    4chan’s been going downhill for years as well. It’s been extremely ban-happy for a very long time. I recently got permabanned for posting a screenshot from Hatching 2022. Something similar has happened to me every time I’ve gone back over the past 10 years.

    Reddit’s ban hammer has gotten so bad it’s crazy. The idea is to make the place absolutely plain vanilla.

      Can’t get that sweet sweet ad revenue if your content isn’t 100% in line with advertising expectations. God forbid there are any deviants on a site that positioned itself as weird and quirky for the first decade of its existence.
