You can sort Reddit after topic creation time, l always do that.

I think it was just named Donkey Kong.
They also made a Donkey Kong Jr cartoon. Its intro starts just after the Donkey Kong cartoon intro, Jr sees Mario running after DK and he tries to catch up.

The way l understand it, l could be wrong, they first turn the board private for mods only.
Then they delete everything in it and turns off the ability to create topics.
They do this, instead of just deleting it, to prevent things to break anything that links to it.
Which means that yes, they can be re-opened as empty boards if they really want to.

Donkey Kong Circus is a 1st party game.

The cartoon is pretty much what you said, DK messing up, Mario tries to capture him, Pauline gets kidnapped.

Wouldn't GameSpot also be owned by Fandom and thus be like fleeing from the sinking Lusitania onto the Titanic?

I remember GameSpot as more game-related forums so they wouldnt get hit as hard as us.

Anybody know how the GameSpot and IGN forums are these days?

Hey...
Even people in the Fallout universe lies or remember the wrong dates.
Just Saiyan.

Think there was a cartoon that made out like donky Kong was like a circus attraction and Mario was his handler so like in og dk he had escaped and took Pauline. In Jr Mario has recaptured him.

It used to be canon that Mario mistreated DK so DK kidnapped his girlfriend as revenge.
Donkey Kong Circus even shows Mario as an asshole against DK.

The REAL question is: whatever happened to Stanley the Bugman?

Die from too much exposure to DDT?

Perhaps Mario became a doctor because his cousin died?

Are they going to place Emulators under rule 9 again?

Wasn't there a poll that showed the site actually trends older than you'd think?

Fandom dreams of crosslinking 100,000 users from their wikis.

God bless pokedude900 for getting this in before they closed the topic like a bunch of fuckin' cowards:

It is not closed.
Only TC and mods/admins can post in topics on that board.

Mods: ...we are supposed to check the topics on the Mods Only board?

So what board(s) are in need of a karma requirement?

They talked with the mods about this ages ago.

That's extremely silly of Fandom. I occasionally visited there, and what I recall was an unusually civilized board. So it seems unlikely that it was any kind of cesspit that required extra time/attention from the mods.

It is a social board, Fandom only wants game-related boards.

We still got that swear filter in the settings?
Soon it will be Always On.

Simpsons got a scene and quote for every possible moment.

The other Fandoms dislikes this boards still exist because they are quiet

You don't have access because you were suspended the same day it was announced right?

She had acces to CE, got tired of Fandom ruining this place, closed her account, re-opened it again, got no CE access because her account was closed.

It's blows my mind that they would lock down thier biggest community and try to kill it

We are a non-gaming social board and they only care about game-related boards.
By slowly killing us, they believe that we will turn into good faith users that migrates to the gaming boards.

One of them also bought a banner celebrating the death of 261.

The 4 last posts are always the most toxid.

At least they confirm that...
...wait, West Bank? The thing that predates the Oct 7 attack?
How can they confirm that while not confirming what happens in Gaza?

They managed to save the baby through a C-section but the rest of her immediate family died.

She is no longer alive.

I would do the same after seeing that Discord.

You are the ham that will be steamed.

So are they plagiarizing? More details please. I didn't see this new drama.

Edit: @NCloud

Is it plagiarzing if they link to GameFaqs?

Umbreon posted...

I guess that leaves the obvious question.

Then why?

Because it was more important to do a self-insert than a good story for the producer/VA.

I mean the Donkey Kong that is the lead in the Country games IS suppose to be Jr and the one from the first game was suppose to be Cranky Kong I guess.

Rareware initially created Cranky Kong for a game featuring the original Donkey Kong from the earlier Donkey Kong games, then-named "Grandpa Kong", being the grandfather of the original Donkey Kong. As Rare's game got reworked into Donkey Kong Country, featuring a more distinctly different Donkey Kong, Grandpa Kong was then established as the original Donkey Kong at an elderly age. Due to this, his exact relation to the current Donkey Kong has been inconsistent. Before the release of Donkey Kong Country, footage from a promotional video titled Donkey Kong Country: Exposed called Cranky Kong his "dad or grandfather", and Cranky Kong refers to Donkey Kong as "Junior" in the review of Donkey Kong Country by the Nintendo Magazine System. Upon release, Cranky Kong being Donkey Kong's grandfather was the consistent backstory throughout the SNES series. While their relation was not explicitly stated in the television series, Cranky acted as a father figure to Donkey Kong and once said that he considered him like a son. Rare seemingly started to retcon their relationship in Donkey Kong 64, in which Cranky Kong consistently addresses Donkey Kong as "son", implying a more direct parental role. Leigh Loveday stated in a 1999 online Q&A that the current Donkey Kong was intended to be Cranky Kong's son and thus an adult Donkey Kong Jr. as far as he was aware, and requested fans to completely ignore instances claiming Cranky to be his grandfather. Whether or not this statement was intended to be taken seriously, the Nintendo of Europe website for the Game Boy Advance version of Donkey Kong Country supported this notion. According to Gregg Mayles in 2017, Cranky Kong is Donkey Kong's grandfather and called him "son" during the events of Donkey Kong 64 because he was so senile by then that he could not remember their actual relationship. The Italian Club Nintendo magazine also states that Cranky is the father of Donkey Kong, despite the Italian instruction booklet stating that he is the grandfather.

After Rare left Nintendo, the issue was left open for some time. Official bios for both Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee imply that the Donkey Kong from the arcade games is the same as the current Donkey Kong, and Mario vs. Donkey Kong describes Donkey Kong as Mario's "original foe". However, this is contradicted by Mario Superstar Baseball, which distinguishes "his ancestor, the original Donkey Kong". Subsequently, Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis implies that Donkey Kong had never seen Pauline beforehand, suggesting him to be distinct from the original Donkey Kong. Super Smash Bros. Brawl (and, consequently, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate) sticks with the story that the original Donkey Kong is the current Donkey Kong's grandfather. Donkey Kong Country Returns reaffirms the portrayal of Cranky Kong as the grandfather of the modern Donkey Kong. This would be contradicted again in The Super Mario Bros. Movie, in which Donkey Kong is referred to as Cranky Kong's son and, according to the Japanese website, successor.

The 2017 book Playing With Super Power: Nintendo Super NES Classics by Prima Games contains two contradictory notes. In one section, it is explained that Donkey Kong Jr. is a separate character from both Cranky Kong and Donkey Kong and is actually the father of the current Donkey Kong and the son of Cranky Kong (who is further explained to be the original Donkey Kong, "Donkey Kong Sr."). Another section, however, notes that the current Donkey Kong is in fact a grown-up Donkey Kong Jr. The Prima Games Twitter account clarified and elaborated upon the apparent contradiction, stating that the latter is meant to be taken as a metaphor for the original design process, whereas the former is the official interpretation of the characters' familial ties. This is the only published piece of media that has directly stated that Donkey Kong Jr. is the father of the current Donkey Kong.

He was a trophy in SSBM, complete with the backstory.

Mario Kart?

As the situation devolved, both DToast and another admin began handling the situation worse and worse.

Following the announcement, they made a feedback thread.

Feedback was overwhelmingly negative. Common criticisms were that the new rules were undefined, "politics" being so vague as to be impossible to ban, the politics ban adversely affecting LGBTQ+ posters, the breakup of extant social communities on other boards, and of course the slow-death-by-a-thousand-cuts for CE.

After 450 posts of everybody except STEROLIZER condemning the changes with no reply, the other admin ("Timmy" something) came back and said "we anticipated feedback to the change will be largely negative. However, we will not be revisiting the change."

They then opened a second feedback thread. When basically every post called them out for making a "feedback" thread that was confirmed by the admins to basically be a suggestion box connected to a paper shredder, DToast made a few flailing attempts to say he was taking notes to "reevaluate the situation in the future." He said that everyone accusing Fandom of not listening/caring were "bad faith posters."

Then Timmy-whoever came back and said they will absolutely not be reevaluating the situation in the future.

When accused of giving CE a death sentence, DToast said that CE will be fine because "68,000+ users can access it today." Everybody pointed and laughed at him.

When told CE was sentenced to a slow death just like LUE was, DToast said "no." No explanation, just "no."

When asked whether the site will ever see anything NEW added instead of just getting features cut and more ads thrown in, DToast said "it would be cool" (exact words) to get FAQ bounties of up to $300,000 (!!!). Everybody pointed and laughed at the absurdity of that non-promise.

400 posts into the second fake-feedback topic, after being HEAVILY pushed, both admins all-but-confirmed that CE was being punished for all the emails, doxxing, death threats, and nonsense that Tails and friends have been sending Fandom from the subreddit.

Seeing the writing on the walls, they apparently decided to NOT make a 3rd fake-feedback topic.

A day or two later, a thread cropped up on CE accusing Fandom of doing nothing but cutting/restricting features and putting in ads. DToast came in and promised he would DM the TC a document that day detailing some future plans for new features for the site. He then disappeared for days before sending a PM about one of their experiments that Fandom do. He blamed the delay on a vacation and a fried GPU.
The PM basically said that they tried to crosslink some popular guides with Fandoms wikis.
Why he couldnt just say it instead of sending a PM is because the topic had multiple bad faith users, he did however have nothing against TC sharing it.
And then he closed two topics talking about the announcement.

Topics are being hit for hornyposting all over the site, some for posting Nirvana lyrics, others for posting pictures of Zuckerberg.

Cya next week.
