If the fun is not in the aggregate then why link to everyone on blogtown? Does that mean you are not the fun? That you can haz cheezburger from 2007? This is the extent of your trolling?

To summarize:

A cat is the cancer that is killing /b/logtown. Copypasta is newfag fail.

I just seemingly got banned for the ol' NIMP thing. Now I'm going to go make myself some tasty homemade waffles. Perhaps you're some 1334 haXor, but I prefer the simple things in life. Take care.

Graham:

A. When was blogtown ever good?
B. the limitations of the board make gore-chemo impossible.
C. Aside from simply perma-b&ing all users that registed in January, I'm not really sure what to do. The new batch is simply too dumb to talk to on any level. Any thoughts?
D.I think it's hilarious that I got banned for this. Sometimes the simplest things...
E. Viva la Caturday.

Broken down for the 5-year old:

1. A cat woke up and ate some yellow-cake gelato. it was delicious.
2. A cat experimented with new way to make Cat Friday fun.
3. Courtney Ferguson was mean and banned A cat cuz she thinks fun is bad.
4. A cat registered a new account, and is emphatically not scheming right now.

Not A Cat

not a cat, just don't read the posts that will obviously have the stupid "recall boring blah blah" comments. I was about to read one today and then make an awesome comment about the dream I had last night about being Sam Adam's friend, and how he'd call me and we would talk (it was a pretty boring dream). But then I changed my mind because I was like, "meh, I think I'll stay away."

aka: you complain too much. leave that link crap on e.dramatica or something.

Oh, damn it, Graham. Did you have to coin the phrase "/b/logtown"? Nothing but evil can come from this!

You might be correct, ROM. I fact, I know you are. The aggressive stupidity of the new posters has gotten me down, so I figured destroying the world (at least for 10 minutes) was the best option. As we know, it's rarely the best option. Hopefully someone actually deleted their system32, though. These things never get old.

Perhaps we could have some ignore [user x] functionality. Does anyone know what this blog is built on? It's gotta be possible...

Kyle, there isn't a single web community larger than a certain size (>9000, perhaps) that hasn't had someone make a /b/ or /i/ or whatever letter inversion, usually in exasperation at how channical things have become. We're legion, remember? It's not some super secret club.

NOT A CAT, you're just bitter because you didn't think of it first.

Also, I've come to realize that Blabby is an amazing troll

Oh, Blabby's good. That's most of my problem with recent blogtown, it's just becoming a club for trolls. The balance needs to be corrected; my little lash-out this morning was a fairly lazy attempt at chemo, quickly met with news that any more chemo would get me b&. Honestly, I think an "ignore user" function would go a long way towards a "healthier" blogtown (whatever that is).

And a "poke" function. And "superpoke". And a scrabble analog.

Will someone please ban the person who posted the poison link & tried to get noobs to delete their system32s & got banned for it & opened a new account & will inevitably do more of the same shit. Please.

Happy Caturday.

billy: I've been here for a year. I've added to dozens of discussions, trolled Matt Davis, celebrated caturday on a regular basis, and generally been one of the less irritating posters. Perhaps you should make a case for me being banned, aside from posting a link that is "made out of poison" (???) and making a joke about system32. You're a bit sensitive, no?

I actually have a proposition: Matt once told the blogtowners that he would run a poll in which we could vote on whether he be fired, and be bound by the results. He then realized that if he had the balls to do that, he would be jobless. Here's my offer: If Matt will finally go through with that poll (only register blogtowners that have been here for more than a week can vote, to weed out sockpuppet creation), I will do the same. Blogtown wants me gone, I'm gone. Blogtown wants Matt gone (and preferably replaced by Sarah), it happens.

What do y'all think?

cat: You're not funny or clever. You're just annoying. You're like the scumbags that come into my work and sing "Total Eclipse of the Heart" in growls and screams and think they're the funniest assholes on the planet even though no one is amused but them, them and the five-thousand self-amused wastes of life who came before them and did the same thing.

Have a nice day!

"God. What the hell happened while I was at lunch?"

Seconded. I take one trip to the opposite coast and this place metamorphs into Blogchan, PDX.

I'll now pause for the inevitable influx of surreptitiously kawaii dickgirl .jpgs and non sequitur closures of the Willamette River due to AIDS.

Nex, talk to the Web people. I want a new sub-blog.

/b/logtown, PDX.

Then we can go make lulz and ignore the people who care about local politics.

/b/logtown is just going to lure in a bunch of stupid poliicoes that thing they've found something special, then they'll ruin it just like they did the original. Has anyone actually tried activating the "/b/logtown gold accounts" that we got in the mail at xmas? i think they might now be necessary

Gold accounts would be useful right about now. Captain Picard would slow down the bad threads in a good way.
