This is the slow death of online communities. The place is obviously flooded by bots and spooks.

OP, don't anger the cc mods for creating too many lc related threads. I don't want these threads to get banned altogether

Now is the time to discuss this VPN shit and everything else related to LC, not a week from now when CC mods decide to unlock that thread and it doesn't matter what we have to say about the VPN ban and everything else.

Loss of speech is the loss of choice.

why would they even ban vpns? so weird

That comic is stupud and culture warriors deserve death.
Also yeah lolcow is stupid and such.

I really don't understand the obsession with lolcow on here. Lolcow is so horrible…that's why I found an alternative platform and never go on lolcow anymore yet lolcow is all people talk about here. It's the same as all the Reddit alternatives complaining about Reddit all the time. No, I don't care that you were banned on such an awful platform. That's why I don't go on Reddit or Lolcow anymore, and I seek out better communities.

you don't get schadenfreude, you are objectively morally above every person who does, good for you

Myself and some other farmers were still able to use VPNs during the VPN ban so most likely they were just banning known VPN ip's. So it's possible that if you have a VPN, you have one or two ip's still able to post if not more. The known VPN ip's are most likely the free ones since anyone can access them, and it's more likely that someone will cause problems on them if it means they don't have to pay. I do think it was really suspicious that the lolcor hate thread went from pretty reasonable discussion while LC was up to a huge shitshow once it went down. But if the ban functionally does nothing to good faith VPN users with paid services then I really don't care. Mullvad's $5 a month.

Since when did Lolcow Farm start tracking your browser so that they can do this to you when they ban you?

It goes away once you clear your cookies, btw.

It's not a recent thing

Seeing anons saying they want the ban back over some other anon saying she ate soap was bizarre to witness. Whether or not it was a joke or serious, regardless if it seemed unfunny or cringe it's such a strange reason. As if a vpn ban would stop benign cringe posts from being made? They were still there during the ban. It's not like it's against the rules.

How did you figure out which ones got through? Even with the rarer countries/cities it'd be a pain having to post through each and every single one to test out (already takes ages to get one post through on there kek)

>other anon saying she ate soap
Caps? That sounds hilarious

It's in the mundane shit thread

Witnessing this infight unfold almost gave me brain cancer. Anons are so sensitive they had a full blown meltdown over fucking eating soap. No one was even saying it was funny, but they kept sperging out. It was so cringey.

That person sounded so bitter and unhappy in general. I really don't understand what's so wrong about having silly little posts, it's the same thing with dumbass shit. I hide or ignore threads I don't like and I ignore posts that don't jive with me. It's easy, fun, and it's free! So nice! I really don't understand the objection to other people having fun even if it's not your cup of tea. Isn't it way easier just to ignore it? Have we lost so much discomfort tolerance that we can't even stand other people goofing off on a non serious Anonymous image board? Is it really that important? I just had something I posted– just to be a little silly and hyperbolic as a treat for a joke– on the lolcows own caps thread calling it an unhinged rant. Is it really so unusual for people to just have fun and goof off? We really have to be so doom and gloom all the time? Doesn't it get tiresome? Lighten the fuck up.
