Reddit did not kill the Misc..
The mods did not kill the misc..
What event you talking about? Shotgun brah?

The forum was extremely fast at least until 2015 where you could refresh to a new front page every 30 secs or so. I didn't misc much at all in 2016 or 2017 and when I came back in 2018 it was just as slow as it is now

a series of short tasks over a relatively longer period of time is life. altruistic light moves under the cover of your own darkness.. find this inner torch bearer and accompany them to the end. we all walk together, but we all walk alone. there is no understanding or purpose beyond that

This. If the virus can’t be eradicated, at least try to contain through a quarantine of sorts.

That post wasn’t about being an OG or being serious. It was about trying to wake people up to why our forum was heading in the wrong direction. Obviously I was correct.
I wasn't trying to discredit anything, just pointing out that nobody really cares whether you've been a member of a dying internet forum since 2002, yet you keep going to great lengths to prove it to everyone?

For the most part I agree with your post. The days of the misc are numbered anyway as traditional internet forums become less and less popular. Kind of funny how "30+ misc --->" used to be an insult a decade ago, now most miscers are over 30 as young people are using other platforms.

It's probably multi-factorial. Reddit is a big one but alot of topics are now off limits. Plus detective-ing.

Can't talk about "creatine" which we all know is a huge part of bodybuilding. Some mods even banned just for using slang terms. Like how OCD do you wanna get... I only stay here because alot of miscers are cool people.

This. It's like when the news talks about bodybuilders being addicted to protein powder and breakfast being the most important meal of the day lmao.

I've not been there since the the uncle joon cancer killed it but it was definitely a funny forum, like 4chan for boomers. Tbombz documenting his bug chasing was one of the most degenerate things on the internet

The history of this forum is largely misunderstood.

I've been here since since the beginning, so I'll give you a quick history lesson that you haven't likely been exposed to:

This forum's glory days were actually in the 2007-2009 era. It was a mix of lifting threads and random funny stuff. Youtube was new at the time so there were a lot of Kimbo Slice etc. going on. It was a great time, before the 4Chan takeover which brought in an influx of non lifters. Around 2009-2011, we saw the rise of those non-lifting types (almost prototypes of the modern Misc FA/LDAR/incels) as well as certain makeup wearing Australians who were heroes to these 4Channers, but the actual lifters here resisted. As a matter of fact, some people started negging him and his followers on sight because the whole forum was being lost to a bunch of non-lifting, zyzz worshipping 4Channers. Of course, you won't ever hear that since everyone just assumes he was universally worshipped and loved. But that wasn't the case. It was just the insecure non-lifting types who were looking for a hero. And that almost became the theme of this place.

So things never really came back from that to be honest. And of course forums in general are dying off (maybe with the exception of Reddit), but I can assure you it has nothing to do with the moderators and it certainly doesn't have anything to do with rep points lmao. And it definitely wasn't Reddit even though that may have been like a final nail in the coffin.

It all started with 4Chan users coming over here in droves over a decade ago.
This. Bunch of *******s worshipping zyzz when the only man that should be worshipped is klaus
