I don't go to talk about my favorite games anymore because it's all circle jerking and 'My favorite' topics over and over again no theories or anything that requires thinking that you can't just post a WIKIA link too or otherwise they think your trolling.
I got banned because I incited deeper thought conversation which is supposedly a crime now that can't be covered by a wiki article or something. 😢 Nobody gives a shit now beyond 'I broooooooke my Swiiiiiiiiitch' or 'Grandma got a free Swiiiiiiiiiiiiitch!' which gets 500 or more votes. And most posts are just memes of people doing shitty things in their game offering no conversation pattern beyond hive mind responses.
My eyes are really bothering me so I cannot explain better. 😢
These days virtually all fan forums are run by a mixture of a tranny janny clique and either a marketing firm or employees of the company that owns the product.
No one involved wants you to have meaningful discussions. They want you to consoom product and get excited for next product. This means creating artificial interest through sock puppets and bots to create an environment where only the most banal posts rise to the top and therefore only those posts are created under the reddit-type system.
The trannies are the ones who do the day to day purging because they have nothing better to and they get off on it. They'll also get occasional small kickbacks from the company for their effort. The main appeal, however, is leading impressionable children to their discord servers so that the trannies can groom them.
You've taken the first step into realizing the truth, my friend. Virtually all online content these days is heavily curated to force a narrative.
I wasn't talking about Reddit though. Your all stuck on Reddit I guess that's all you know. I'm talking of smaller forums like Zelda Dungeon or Mushroom Kingdom.net for Mario,etc. I used to get sound files from the latter back in the day. Now it's all either dead or only certain 'My favorite' topics allowed.
I know you're not talking about reddit.
I'm telling you that it's the same people and the same modus operandi between reddit and individual forums.
I thought individual forums would have a better flavor being they don't have to answer 2 Reddit's call.
Nope.
They make their own version of rule 2.
Remember, it's all the same people and companies running these things.
