Khas 12,158 Posted April 23, 2014 Seems some underhanded tactics in forcing a Mod to retire don't sit well with the community: http://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/athene-retiring.295647/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Praeothmin 532 Posted May 14, 2014 Well it's nothing compared to the fractured assholes the warsies will get because of the new SW Canon ramming them up the ass... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Airlocke 12,014 Posted June 10, 2014 Yup, a new forum was created. Sufficient Velocity.com. I should add that the person who was forced out was......kind of a dick. Oh, also? They just ran out of disk space. Apparently the servers can no longer store new threads, though some posts can still get through. Shouldn't be long before posting becomes impossible. The Forum is EXTREMELY unstable right now. Hopefully some admins can trim some space and possibly look into purchasing more disk space(unlikely). So, uh, SBC might be dying.

Airlocke 12,014 Posted June 11, 2014 Is this new place worth trolling? Any people y'all dislike? SufficientVelocity doesn't seem as bad as Spacebattles. Yeah, right now it is mostly populated by the 10+ year veterans of Spacebattles. Those guys were always pretty cool and mature. It has always been the 17-25 year old population is unstable. Not so different from real life, really. You should totally come hang out. I don't really post over there yet, but I might start today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tyralak 12,068 Posted June 20, 2014 Reminds me of a quote from the late SirNitram, back in the good old days. The first lines are quotes from the person he's addressing. Quote #304 -- SirNitram -- Quotable Posts > Judge SB as you would have others judge ASVS. You really want me to do that? Okay. Here we go, don't say you didn't ask for it. ASVS has a bunch of maniacal crack smoking donkey fuckers who are quite willing to tell each other just what part of the evolutionary tree they fell out of, and how many ugly sticks hit them after impact. The debates are based purely off science, and the denizens mercilessly beat those who are trolls. If you are stupid, you will be weeded out, through flaming to a cinder or KFing. SB has a bunch of maniacal crack smoking donkey fuckers who cry to moderators if someone says a bad word, or if they just can't come up with a good counter-argument. The debates are based off bias and who shouts the loudest without being banned, and the mods suppress anyone who seems to be making waves. If you are stupid, apparantly, you are considered a master debator. I can hear the reply. 'Waaaah! You don't know SB! You've never been!'. This will probably come from Isil'Whatever. You crack smoking donkey fucker. I have. I went, I lurked, I posted. I saw such monumental stupidity that I was amazed they haven't accidentally killed themselves brushing their teeth. Claims that ST weapons have thousand-kilometer ranges without a shred of proof, and if you quote Slave Ship they go psycho. I judged SB as I judged ASVS. There's a reason I'm here. I like my brain cells, and they at least get a rudimentary workout here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khas 12,158 Posted June 21, 2014 Well, nowadays it's Warhammer 40K that's Spacebattles' pet franchise, but the overall point still stands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
