    You can see all the hardcore tankies playing cheerleaders under each of the many posts accusing Rimu of stuff too. They really hate piefed and I have no doubts they were stirring shit up in the background to some extent. There may be something to their grievances, and I’m certainly not saying the accusers are all tankies themselves, but just looking at the comments together with some dishonest details in the posts themselves was enough for me to leave quokk.au yesterday.

    I just hope this blows over in time, unlikely as it is.

      For many of them this is as close as they will ever get to being able to point the finger at others for doing what they’re known for. They feel it justifies them instead of making them hypocrites.

      Not all people in the screenshot are tankies (or, at least, known to me), but some are. And those are probably the most vocal and annoying of them.

        I’m not talking about the screenshot, but the bunch of threads aimed at Rimu I saw in the past week or two. Mostly on PTB at db0
