Boredom. Spam isn't generating as much drama as usual, and we all like eachother too much to actually be awful to one another most of the time these days, so we bitch about the new guys and make that a thing instead.

Because it's quite a few, and spam was already dying down so it's much more noticeable.

also because people actually used to call them on it (even worse than now), and until the past few days no one did.

I know you're loathe to accept this, but you actually make us laugh sometimes. And at the very least I never actually physically cringe over your posts, like I have been with some of the newbies.
I dunno, I think people are noticing that when we're all too nice there's room for absolute idiocy to slip through. All those who were the resident "magnificent bastards", or just dickheads, used to #rek morons. We criticised them for being that way, but didn't quite realise it was what protected us from too much 13-year-old stupidity, or that it actually helped create our community by way of the fact that those who 'survived' the 'hazing' were generally of a certain type and quality. People are just now realising that the payoff for tolerance and kindness to one another is inviting less-wanted folk in and having to tolerate them too, and the backlash against that is a combination of increased harshness to newcomers (Idle-senpai been so mad these past few days D:) and in general, as well as making a big shitstorm out of it. The fear is that this isn't just a summer swarm anymore, but, because of the changing dynamic of this community, will become a permanent fixture.

I'm not sure how new or old you are to spam, but this increased harshness isn't new. In all honesty, I'm shocked at the level of tolerance. A year ago, if half of these threads were made there would've been a swarm of vets posting to tear them a new ass.

Older to spam than you, for sure. And you haven't been around for quite some time; the way Spam is acting towards newcomers now is the harshest it's been in months, mainly because we haven't had this sort of influx between the, uh, "vets" leaving, and now.

Yeah, I figured you had been because your name was familiar but I couldn't place it. And dunno', vets was the wrong word, I almost called them oldies but that sounded even worse.

I've been sassy but not angry. I'm just tired of the bullshit and I'm not going to ignore it entirely. I've noticed improvements and/or the scarcity of some of the new folks I gave a hard time to last week. Thank you, Mole for easing up on the ellipses. That beaning said, I'm not here to haze people but I'm also not going to let a bunch of shit posting drag down Spam anymore than it is. Looks like Nat's gone and all his clones need to stay gone as well. Maybe we don't need to be assholes but we do have to maintain some semblance of standards here. Most of the vanguard that once kept shit posting in check are gone and you see what happened when it was allowed to go unchecked.
