The Ash-A2-Carbon circlejerk genuinely ruined /arg/. I miss PB.
PB might have been a weirdo and a bit of an attention whore (which tripfag/avatarfag isn???), but at least his threads were good.
Now /arg/ threads are nothing but awful blogposting, off-topic political bullshit, literal schizos raving about troons (some for, some against).
Even the blatant shills spamming irrelevant threads about the war in Ukraine, and chinoids glowies spamming about how STLONG and IMPLESSIVE their air force/navy is, produce better threads than Cabon and his gang of sycophant cocksuckers.
Even colossal faggots trying to die on their hill of choice, defending their chosen barrel length against the filthy heathens favoring barrels an inch longer/shorter post better and more informative replies.
Even the genuine retards that run 8" tall GBRS dogleg mounts, without even owning a set of NODs, because they've been told they'll be killt-in-da-streets™ if they don't, are more entertaining.
If Carbon and his gang wanted their own little circlejerk echochamber, they should have stayed contained to their own private [slur-of-your-choice]-cord groups rather than go an ruin /k/ for everyone else.
Even the legendarily awful tripfags like Squid and AlexC weren't faggy and egotistical enough to try to systematically bully people off the board due to envy of their popularity*.
*(possible exception for AlexC who regularly threw embarrassing fits whenever someone with more money or cooler guns than his (they weren't really his, he was a neppobaby who showed off his rich dad's guns) showed up to "steal" all the attention away.
