I mean early as in 2011.

Where there was no shit-filter and issues were worked out IC.

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

Heck, even thinking about my own early days here feels like I was the dumbest person there, and that was early 2015.

I did it three times. Going on a fourth but I'm trying to keep it down by remaining absolutely still.

This is technically good because it means I'm getting all this stuff out of my body but I'm gonna get gradually worse before I get better as a result.

It's actually kind of fascinating going back and reading Strig's bullshit. It's part of the "Forum Game Cycle":

  • Forum game is overrun by shitty newbies
  • shitty newbies bond with one another
  • one asshole shows up, slightly shittier than the rest, and forces a plot, thereby exposing shitty newbies to structure
  • one asshole is generally disliked but the strutcure isn't
  • community, now no longer technically newbie-run, begins to self-regulate, sometimes not very well
  • some members become self-aware enough to want a shit filter
  • growing pains are had as the other half of the community violently objects to these fun-ruining guidelines
  • those that don't leave learn to deal with it, gradually don't mind
  • people begin making shitty knockoffs out of spite, these are either locked or abandoned
  • become actually decent roleplay in the process
  • look back into the forum game section with distaste at what the newest newbies are doing

Rinse and repeat. The genderflipped thread is going through this right now. It's actually kinda fascinating. You think WAOA had something similar as well? Probably.
