Well, that specific series of asshattery was in 2008 (I still know the guy, but we're not close). If SA's had a major crackdown on that stuff in the past four years, enough that that Does Not Happen Anymore—well, my main reason against the tenbux is pretty much gone. Considering the hosting fees for a huge forum, they make sense. So if it IS improved and you totally can't do without the content, sure, why not, pay away.

...however, I tend to be skeptical that problems that endemic can just be Fixed Quickly. So I, uh, am not rushing out to pay it myself. YMMV, especially if you're less cynical about the Internet.

I'm not saying it's perfect, but it's MUCH better than it was in 2008. The process by which it changed actually started around 2008 but it took a couple years for it to fully take effect. It's a combination of the forums getting much more liberal due to a number of things, and the mods cracking down on stuff.

Helldump doesn't exist anymore and Helldumping people is very much frowned upon now. You still have problems sometimes with people being dumb but you also have a lot of really cool people, along with very good, long-running megathreads for trans discussion among other things ( http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3447636 ) which have managed to survive. And you have mods who are very much able and willing to ban or probate people for saying bigoted things or for starting wank. There's still problems but it's definitely much better than it was in 2008 and the problems are not nearly as endemic.

The thing is that you had a lot of people who wanted things to change, and you also had the SA mods who are both mostly good at modding (especially since 2009 or so) and very, very active. So the fact that they were willing to just straight-up ban people for doing dumb shit helped things change a lot. A lot of the kind of people who posted in Helldump and did stuff like what happened to your friend got perma-banned.

yes :D
