The most generic flamewar

Calling out some random poster who literally just joined the forum yesterday for no reason.

Goes along with for some imaginary credence for my paranoid, proofless accusations that 's target is an old poster from, like, a decade or so ago, now posting under a new alias for some asspull farfetched reason. The target apparently is (a bunch of negative adjectives and nouns) and he did something that sounds like something straight out of the game of broken telephone that cannot be proven anyways, but I try and make it sound as scandalous as possible and you must take my word for it, because I say so!

Repeats the paranoid accusations in slightly different wording and slightly shorter form.

(Another character) with a grudge against moderators makes equally tinfoil-hatty asspull unfounded, unprovable, paranoid accusations of their own. The mods (repeatedly called "trolling modenators") allegedly have been letting and 's target troll the forum (or rather, implied, outright approving/encouraging/requesting/urging it if not paying for it) while the same moderators go out of their way to troll around and incite flamewars themselves "disguised" as "ordinary users". Why this would be is due to "sychological" (sic) deviance left vague and "depraved self-love" left just as much so.

A Post calling out , and before continuing with whatever this thread was originally about before the Flame War.

(Off topic batshit insane conspiracy theories with links of "proof" instantly deleted by the spamfilter)

Another tinfoil-hat loony goes all bonkers about 's proof being "shadow-banned", implying it somehow proves correct.

Random personal attacks.

A post from a bitter old user who's just come back to talk about how much better the forum used to be and spends their time bullying the new users but since they've been around a long time nobody does anything about it.

Another actual old poster (whom no one does anything about, either) turns up to wax nostalgic about old times while profusely thanking for "speaking up" in between reminiscing about specific posters, who now are apparently paragons of forum knighthood. Any discussions, referenced vaguely in general except for liberal sprinkling of peripheral details of who said what and how (insert more flowery musing), are exalted, idealized and glorified, whether they actually amounted to anything or not.

But what a twist! All this turns out to be a pretext for a litany of scapegoating and vilification against another old poster. As soon as this old poster is apparently confident he's established himself as a credible, objective observer in eyes of anyone, who just happens to be reading his text, he/she (OOC: from here on, I just say "he") starts shifting the topic to his agenda against this other old poster. Much is made of any mis-statements, misunderstandings and perceived slights, no matter how small or trivial, as proof of dishonesty, malice and general (insert various negative adjectives) nature the target is accused of having. Even the word "grime element" is used as an indirect, but obvious reference.

Also much is made of any instance of someone else mongering drama with the target implicated by insinuations they may have connections to that other person. All this -AHEM!- may or may not have been mentioned with the forum's conspiracy nuts in mind.

Never mind if the same grounds of suspicion/insinuation/accusation/hearsay-as-truth were applied to this very commenter doing the character assassination, he'd also have to viewed as sinister (almost cartoonishly so) for every time he's asked anyone to, say, talk privately. This would even apply in cases, where anyone else he's briefly talked to, said anything rude to anyone else.

(OOC: Can you see how ridiculous this is?)

Poster who was hinted at but not directly mentioned in the above post, coming forward to complain about the previous poster's passive-aggressiveness and leave no doubt that they were one of the "problem people". Further lashing out at the above poster in the manner of a child throwing a tantrum.

Someone, who wasn't even a part of whatever transpired concerning , and , digs up some old archived convo threads showing them all in a questionable and rather nasty light. The very same descriptions made by of his target could be equally applied to , and . The only thing possibly referring to 's target being a few vague, indirect, passive-aggressive gripes and negative opinions presented as fact.

An out-of-nowhere and completely unnecessary attack on the supporters of a ship.

Transphobic copy-pasta about machines, followed by machine-phobic copy-pasta about transistors.

Some messed-up druggie asks if so-and-so places are good ones to buy some hard drugs.

[this post has been thumped for being a disparaging, irrelevant and emotional outburst insulting another poster's preferences and eventually parental figures]

Decides to mention controversial political beliefs out of nowhere.

Tells the above poster to kill himself for his opinions.

A post treating Autism like a horrible disease and claiming to have fallen into despair after seeing "the life leave [their] child's eyes."

No seriously. Literally every person who does this always refers to Autistic people's eyes as "lifeless" or "having the life drained from them" or some other bull. I don't know why.

Is that one guy who posts "this thread was a rollercoaster".
