Johan must really not like me. He made his own forum, about the same damn shit we talk about here. https://horrorntrash.freeforums.net/ is of the same design as imdb2, a site that we had both expressed our disdain in, but fuck it so long as it ain't this place, right?
Stab me in the fucking back, why don't ya? All to make a shoddy knockoff of a site that was designed to cater to all and anyone's requests? I've spent thousands of dollars and hours to learn how to code this site. I live in sleaze and eat ramen fucking noodles so there can be a dedicated forum for epic trash discussions out there, and because certain users have decided to make issues out of nothing, we experience a new divide in our already diminished user base? Fuck that!
I thought Johan and I were on the same page on a lot of things. I thought he understood that we need unification, but the guy runs off to start another forum with some generic free host. Now, one of our most valuable contributors decides to split in favor of a barebones message board system, leaving us all in even further divided camps. And who does he made his moderator? Tromafreak, because God forbid that guy exist on a forum where his mod status and thus masculinity are in question. Yeah, that's right. Johan makes his "head mod" a guy who tried to ban him from here. More than once.
What's the hell is going on here? The dude likes to makes himself out to be a victim, but tromafreak has been totally unreasonable about this whole fucking mess. He acts like there's preferential treatment or something, but there isn't. He's had a bug festering up his ass about Der ever since the notorious "Cars 3" rants, and that somehow put ME at fault with troma, because he'd gotten very distant from me since then. Guilty by association, I suppose. Angry that he can't be "head mod" if I allow myself to get programming assistance through der's account. Boo fucking hoo.
I don't interfere with user/user discussions, because I've got better things to do than pick sides, and he's treated me like villain ever since. Sure, I know the guy can be a bit irritable at times, but I always got along with him before. A lot of my most favorite films are movies he's introduced me to, and I genuinely thought we were on good terms until he raged at me in a private message, saying in so many words to go fuck myself, and ran away from his own goddamn website. I don't like saying this is my site, because it's a group effort. I want others to realize that this is their site, too, but nobody seems to get it these days. Tromafreak didn't even bother reading what I had to say about it, and that hurts. He didn't even get to read the part where I tell him to go fuck himself.
The whole thing is frustrating. The guy just wants to throw away everything we've been working on for half a decade, because he doesn't like Der? That's some real bullshit right there. And Johan joining a freeforums site? That's a step backwards. What do these people want out of a website? Standard, soulless machinery that lets them feel like the proprietors of a new and untamed frontier of lost message boarders seeking a new place to call home? Fuck no. Nobody cares about message boards anymore. It's all about facebook and apps now, and they're putting themselves in an even smaller margin of activity now. If Johan was upset that his posts didn't get enough exposure, then why the hell would you narrow that scope even further with a site comprised of users--fewer users than your normal userbase--who for some dastardly reason or another decided to flee this place because they were "offended" by users... and strangely enough, some of which whom are currently over there now?
If they think they're mad, how the hell do they think I feel? They walk away from a place I built for them, in favor of a shoddy knockoff of this place? It's fucking stupid, is what it is. Well, I can be stupid, too. They try to rip this place off with free forum software? Well, I've built a shoddy knockoff of their shoddy knockoff:
https://trashepics.com/app/ff/
As you can see, I've made a rather ugly and shallow skin that's somewhat functional. I might add mobile support later. I might just kill myself instead.
If those guys ever get their heads out of their asses and stop sucking each other's dicks over there, there's a real website over here waiting for them.
