Yeah, it feels like CE doesn't understand tongue-in-cheek humor at all >_> This board was built on it years ago

There are no fun gimmick accounts. They are all annoying.

The only thing I remember about his is getting warned for calling him a complete idiot, and that "that's his username" was not sufficient grounds to reverse that moderation.

Calling someone an idiot being grounds for moderation has always been a bad rule.

I still stand by the belief that when you run your 'gimmick' as long and persistently as vegy did, it's no longer a gimmick and just a cry for help.

Too many people were like "Okay my gimmick is going to be being aggressively pro-Trump" from 2016-2020 and it kind of killed a lot of that because it was alongside people who actually believed it.

What made WWEProp funny is partially how the "gimmick" was unique and no regular poster would post that way.

As we all knew he would. Though I guess we were equally suspicious that he might just move the goalposts.

Pick one.

Also we should make a distinction between a user with a gimmick, and a gimmick account.

Theres at least one user here who says da instead of the, and another who replaces all Cs with Ks. Those are gimmicks, but outside of this theyre otherwise decent posters.

A gimmick account on the other hand is someone like Billyionaire, whose gimmick is having the worst possible take on any given topic. Their gimmick defines their every post.

It took CE to define what a gimmick was. I can explain kayfabe but it also is something you have to feel for yourself.

And easy enough to ignore if he wasn't your cup of tea.

He really did, at least on his endgame account. Hasn't logged in since feb 2021.

Of course, knowing the folks around here, he's could be back on an alt here trashing Biden for daring to have the same Israel stance the every president has had before him, including Trump.

I remember endgame telling everyone to calm down in 2020 when it looked like Trump was way up. He called it exactly that once mail-in started being counted Biden would bounce back.

Endgame wasn't a gimmick sadly, he was a lonely fool who seemed to have a psychological breakdown and became an obsessive troll and attention. He was also a self hating lolicon

The creepy misogynistic topics, the creepy baby talk, never answering questions, constantly bumping days-old topics with dumbass one word replies instead of actually contributing to the discussion, overall just being a jackass (like tearing people down when theyre trying to better themselves)

Such a mystery!

I got modded for calling him idiot, and it was in fact reversed when I pointed out that it was in his name.

Never touched this board any until Politics got nuked, but I had to endure the slew of gimmicks there that were annoying as all of hell, to say the least.

I really don't get the need to make an online "gimmick" outside of cheap attention grabs. The times I tried to get something straight out of said people, it got ignored or just had NPC-like behavior spewed back at me, so makes me think of em less as people since some of the worst-behaving ones don't bother to break out of that shit for just one moment.

tl;dr I'd rather people just be themselves. Jokes are fine, but there's is such thing as overusing it.

PS: glad duckbear vanished.

I always wonder what goes on in the minds of shitposters. Like, joking around once in a while is fine, but these people make it their whole identity. I just feel bad for them tbh. Must have a pretty crummy life if thats how they feel they need to escape.
