They quickly saturate the thread, turning it into an OT shitpile that no dev team member is going to want to pick through.

    I've been on UUNET/ArpaNet/Internet forums for over 40 years,
    and this is one aspect of them that has not changed.

    Who knows, maybe turning (or keeping) the EN forums a shitpile is the haters goal?
    Make it so that it's useless, so they'll always have an excuse to hate the devs for not listening to them. That kind of self-reinforcing death spiral is unfortunately not rare, possibly because some people can only feel good about themselves by belittling others.
    Not that they'd ever admit that, even to themselves.
    Silverbane don't act like a victim. You have a reputation for being unhinged because you are unhinged.

    Silver and Vel both are just so odd, to me. They both claim membership in the more geriatric side of the age divide, what with their "back in my day" and "I've been on internet forums for over 40 years" quotes. Why then, are they so hostile and hateful? Most people of a more advanced age I have the pleasure of being acquainted with are kind, wise and respectful. Whence then, did Silver and Vel seem to fail to heed this moral?

    Edit: Shite, what the krill?! Do you just make five second memes on the fly, Awesome?
