I'll be the lone voice of dissent and say that I don't hate Lowtax.
He had enough principles (or maybe he is just spinning it that way) to prevent SomethingAwful from being overrun by Facebook-tier posts. There's some real internet classics in their archive (including "I put on a robe and wizard hat" and messing with Stormfront) from back when everyone was in on the joke together.
It's really sad to see a place that had such potential fifteen years ago first become a bastion for smug assholes (charging $10 encouraged this) and then become Patient Zero for Social Justice and expecting heavy-handed moderation (banning everyone that annoyed the community for the silliest reasons has that effect) on the entire internet.
It all makes sense in retrospect how they'd form an actual "secret club". They spent real money on admission, had to conform hard to the culture, had semi-anonymous identities with which they could find each other outside of the site, and a lot of their trolling was geared at "ew look at the people with the gross opinions; let's mess with them". It was never egalitarian.
But it's still a shame. In no way do I approve what the site became and I'd love to see a torch taken to it, but the damage is done and there was some great content archived there from the site's peak.
I'm sure some of us also remember the struggle for control of EVE, and some of the other conflicts we had with the Goons.
In many ways, they were our mirrors. Our distant cousins.
Today we celebrate the death of our enemy, but that enemy was closer to us in many ways than the rest of those on the internet.
This is just one more step in the loss of the old internet and the taming of the frontier.
I understand the joy, but I can't help but weep for what could have been.
That being said, expect someone with a successful Patreon to swoop in and save the site, somehow making it more cancerous in the process.

They basically formed a circlejerk club based around combing through post histories, social media and cross-checking usernames on other forums and calling people out.

The movement goes on every time we talk shit about journalists or bad games. They associate with a brand that was never supposed to be a brand.

They were circa 2003, though. They'd raid irc rooms and got some good results. There was a lot of cultural cross-over in the early days. Even moot was a goon before then.
What the site became after that was twisted. The elements were all there before the site formed a monoculture hugbox and that's when the rivalry started.
Regardless, I have a modicum of appreciation for those who fought on both sides.
Those were some of the best times of my life, and even if I hate the faggots they still provided me with endless entertainment.
Like others have said, they're assholes who want to appear like good people. We're good people trying out hardest to push boundaries and act like dickheads for a good time. We were still forged from the same era.
I want nothing to do with goons, especially the "Weird Twitter" cult and other networks that have formed.
But it's worth remembering that there's a reason they have so much influence now. Unfortunately the same elements pushing for that control are the ones who get off on control. I doubt anybody regularly visiting an imageboard cares that much. To be here is the antithesis of control.
>>16237987
I do really feel bad for Lowtax, but he ultimately cucked himself. What a shame.
Almost forgot he was invovled in the Uwe Boll match. Hotwheels is my favorite site admin ever but I'd like to see any others sign-up to take a punch over internet comments. It took balls. Or at least, a ton of adrenaline.
It's true that they'll just move on if they can't save the site. They already have an extensive network that surpasses any individual website. Creating a new one will be easy. Wonder if they'll go more underground? No schism, though. It will be a more unified exodus.
That puts all of the old internet cultures on second-generation websites, though. SA was the last of the old guard. If you count halfchan as a 1st Generation Western Imageboard then we're Generation 2. ERA is Generation 2 GAF. Tumblr was already Generation 2 Liveblogging and is now transitioning to Generation 3.
Wonder how long this can keep up. It's hard enough to find oldfags. I'm half-tempted to sign up for some shitty service like Discord just to stay in touch with everyone here when the inevitable happens. GamerGate really hardened us and gave us some kind of temporary identity during the move. I'm not sure we'll be so lucky next time.

Barely. With the death of hotwheels, the failure of infinity, the take over of (((Jim))) and his dumb flip happa son and the subsequent banning of /hebe/ the idea of free speech on 8chan is being dwindled and cut down to be more of a plastic ideal.
>some speech is less free-er than others!
Is now the current zeitgeist among the janitors here. You WILL be banned according to rule 8, because of its diliberately obscure and vague meaning. Meta disscussion is basically zero since no one is that motivated to take charge on a website where gay russian traps and indians are the dominate culture outside /pol/ and /v/.
8/pol/ is probably the most boomer infested and autistic iteration of /pol/ yet, at least kampfaggot was booted in the most spectacular way possible. Unfortunately with the turk gone it allowed for lax moderation which gave way to a land slide of low quality posters.
On /v/ it's the opposite where mods larp to the fullest extent to justify their most degenerate vices. They'll claim its not video game discussion, but will gladly allow off-topic threads if its in their favor.
>Want a loli thread? Even if its a borderline porn dump it's OK because we like loli and its BASED chan culture!
Of course when you point this out this an obvious conflict and dichotomy of ideals, they will gladly boot you off because you were a meanie "/pol/edditor." This has lead to the same effect on /pol/, but with the complete inverse on the set of causes. In /pol/ lax moderation has lead to degradation, but on /v/ egotistical moderation has lead to degradation as well, possibly even accelerated on a much faster timescale when compared to /pol/.
That being said NeoGAF and SA are probably one of the most faggoty boring shitheaps on the net. It's just a same 8chan is turning into the same place where we once mocked these sites about.

Sure:
ffmpeg -stream_loop 200 -i minkdance.gif -ss 18.25 -i Andrew\ W.K.\ -\ Party\ Hard-WccfbPQNMbg.m4a -shortest -filter:v 'setpts=1.4814814814814814*PTS' -c:v libvpx-vp9 -r 2.7 -b:v 0 -crf 30 -c:a libopus -b:a 64k -y /tmp/partyhard.webm
-stream_loop to loop the gif, -ss to skip the intro of the music video, setpts to actually change the input video speed, -r to set the framerate.
For the one before, I didn't adjust the PTS, leading to dropping frames instead of speeding up the gif, and I thought it was 170 bpm when it's actually 162, so it was actually subtly falling out of sync a few times through.

Yeah, the slow decline of Lowtax parallels the descent into degeneracy of SA.
Also, while I do agree they'll migrate in a more organized fashion than most other sites goons will still lose a lot of members and power when that happens. Then again, it's likely someone will just buy SA from Lowtax and keep that shithole afloat for a while longer.

The eternal imageboard debate: is funposting good or bad?
/v/ mods need to be more even in their deletions
But you don't really want to turn this place into reddit, either
They regularly will say "no asking questions about this hobby here, go to this other subreddit we run for that"
Stuff like the loli thread should probably be moved, but you do need some quasi-irrelevant threads to pad the board out and provide a diverse set of discussions
Do you remember what /v/ was like just before the exodus? It was filled to the brim with generals. One for every genre and possibly some of the biggest games in those genres.
That was zero fun.
I am never one to defend mods but there's always people screeching that their bland, edgy, off-topic post was great and shouldn't be deleted and there's always someone whining that a perfectly relevant and engaging thread should be removed.
The stewardship of Jim concerns me but short of us crowdfunding a non-profit that can take control and run the servers I don't see a solution
We had that as a path when Hotwheels was around but after he and Josh dropped the ball we're stuck
We'd need Jim's permission to do anything and a lot of money to fund an improved backend.

To give you more information for how I got those numbers: The setpts multiplication changes the stream speed. 0.5* would double the speed and 2.0* would double it. I wanted one beat per frame. The gif input framerate was 4.0 fps, and the music is 162 bpm, which divides down to 2.7 bps (which is where the -r argument comes from). To calculate setpts, you have to scale from 4.0 down to 2.7, so you have to divide 4 / 2.7 to get 1.481…).
You can do the same calculations when trying to sync anything. You might have to use a -ss to shift the video stream as well to match it to the beat.
If you have a track with a variable tempo, you're basically fucked.

Dohoho, that is a tale for the ages. Someone will probably come with a more detailed story later on in the thread, but I'll give what I remember.
I'll give a little back story. It all started with wordfilters, kikefy LOVED them. He loved playing with shit and like to put some words he deem to be used by shills under them. For example "amerimutt" was automatically filtered to "IM A FAGGOT PLEASE RAPE MY FACE!" or something so childish and gay like that.
One day he fucked up so bad that it got the entirety of /pol/ mad, and that is anything you DON'T want to happen. /pol/niggers can be fine with the world burning or nuclear holocaust, but interfere with their board? A recipe for probably actual lynchings. One day kikefy filtered one word that was so pivotal to /pol/ it shook its very foundations, he filtered the word "nigger"
You probably could guess what happened next. A mass storm of angry anons stormed /sudo/ and bugged the shit out of codemonkey. Codemonkey was actually ON kikey's side, but from a huge amount of ungodly fuck ups on his part, codenigger was so fried he booted kikey and made the board globally moderated.
As I am not a patient man with the attention span of a bee, I'll stop here. Some else can expound more.

The celebrations seem a bit premature (though celebrating that his shit is fucked is still good)
You need an account to see some of the threads, but the original screencap that posted his facebook post of how much in the red he is was the one that ran with the Somethingawful is shutting down meme.
That said, it's obvious that the forum is not doing great at all. Lowtax has a wife and kids with no money and a dead forum. His shit is fucked. But yes OP is a clickbaiting idiot.

You know, for all it's heavy moderation including an autobot that deletes comments if they use certain shitposting words(like fam or :^) ), even /a/ allows fun threads and off-topic from time to time. They have Japanese traveling threads, some other /jp/ threads, from time to time, japanese learning threads, the fish shrine threads(some anon has been posting a different fish image every day or almost an year, if not more), image dumps, and even one or two video game threads per year, it doesn't have to be japanese games, though it is what they would play. It would be as if LoL threads were not only permitted, but they were done once every 2 or 3 months, and not immediately when the last one reaches page 13. I guess this is an example of both heavy moderation, and a community that self moderates as well.

Anyway, another good point to add is that kikefy is part of a larp discord group called "knight templar."

That's still partly true on imageboards. At the extreme you had an odd tripfag culture on 4/jp/ for a time where some of them were fun, some idiotic, and some extremely generous. But even without tripcodes certain people contribute enough to have an identity of sorts, even if not attached to their person, like certain people in the share threads for example.

back around 2013/2014 there was a bunch of weird shit going on with the board culture abruptly changing, and all the regulars in each subforum being replaced with a gang of hyper-circlejerky nobodies who (on EVERY BOARD) suddenly locking down the culture with hyper-SJW shit and driving out people who had been posting for sad years

That was always an issue back then.

I don't know him, never lurked or posted on SA. Just know it a bit from reputation. Even assuming everything about him is true and worse, this kind of news makes me a bit depressed. Not because I give a shit about SA, but because the site has been around for what… a little over 20 years now? Now it's going to evaporate like Consumption Junction and GoreGallery.

You also forgot he wordfiltered "islam" into "religion of cucks" or something retarded like that. So when you were trying to have a theological discussion which used to happen on that board, yknow when actual proper arguments between the users fostered some interesting discussion, it make it fairly impossible to do that with the word filters which made the users who were up for deeper discussion leave in droves.

While ffmpeg understands that you want things to loop it doesn't really know what to loop for how long.
You need to add -shortest to let it know that you are trying to loop the short stream to the length of the long one.(in this case the gif to the song)

That and certain speedruns made me actually want to play that for myself. It's awful but in a fun way if you're breaking it. The other good LPs off the top of my head are of Trespasser for being informative, and anything Freelance Astronauts for being fun. I tolerate the one of Rise of the Triad too despite certain aspects. It shows pretty good care overall at showcasing that game.

It takes a special kind of fuckup to go broke while managing a website that charged it's 250,000 users $10 each to post there, plus all the extra shit you can optionally pay tenbux for. A sane person would have hired someone with financial experience to be on SA's enormous admin team, but they decided to stack the deck with women/trannies/crazy people.

/co/ is a board dedicated to one of the most jewish media in history, you can't expect the mods to be less than ball-less fags.

>t.anti-trump reddit faggots
Reminder the faggots who formed (((yang gang))) are basically the same crew who made spencer, dugin, and peterson drones out of potential anons from social media, only this time they're imitating the same methods 8ch used to influence the 2016 Elections
Reminder anti-Trump faggots pretending to be overly excessive pro-Trump are still anti-Trump faggots trying to dilute and shit up the whole board along with leftypol

As much as I hated the ID system initially, it really is the best weapon against the trannies. Most of their tactics involve making 3 people look like 15, and it's pretty hard to prove samefagging from poster count alone.

It would be nice if political and news discussion was contained there and Mark actually deleted offtopic posts, but he's an incompetent fuck so the threads are basically useless at this point.
