Was anyone on Gaia Online "General Discussion" in the mid-2000's? That place seemed to attract a ton of attention-hungry cows; iirc one of them pretended to be a boy until her nudes were leaked or something.
>>500116Same. I got my start on ED too but unfortunately didn't get interested in LJ voyeurism until everyone had ditched the site.
I remember littlecloud; what a trainwreck. Apparently she's managed to move on from being a crazy internet person and has a job now, according to someone on KF.
Were you around during the spat between ED and Masochistic-Wolfie?

>Did you belong to any old school cow-tracking communities like fandom_wank or Encyclopedia Dramatica?
Maximum faggotry and StaminaRose before the "Pixyteri is a pedo!1!" scare that made the admin close it.
Used to lurk on early PULL and "truth blog" tumblrs at first
>Are there any cows that you used to follow before places like lolcow and KF existed/became huge?
UsagiKou but I lost interest,PT but she isn't active,Koots but she isn't interesting,Venus but she became just depressing to see, the list could go on but these are the main i followed
>Did a cow terrorize your local internet forum, livejournal group, IRC channel, etc.?
Lol no, but i will forever remember when Kiki Kannibollocks got caught posting on PULL,and got caught here again
>Which old cows do you miss the most/wish were still active?
Pixyteri and ChrisChan most of all.
That and the likes of Sepirothslave and other creepy weebs from LJ/Deviantart peak era. They were a riot,man.

>>500124>That and the likes of Sepirothslave and other creepy weebs from LJ/Deviantart peak era. They were a riot,man.It's a huge shame that they've pretty much all left the internet (though probably better for them). We're probably never going to get cows like them again because that shit is widely tolerated in fandom now and it has a different je ne sais quoi…once weird subcultures like otherkin and soulbonding got passed through tumblr and twitter, they became completely unremarkable, just labels that teens assign to themselves to feel special.

>>500136It's hard to tell whether people who get wrapped up in fantasy are boring now because it's been tumblrized and shallow or because it's so common. Back when Pixy et al were active, they were interesting because it was remarkable for someone to be so narcissistic, lazy, and delusional in a public setting.
Now not only are fantasy-prone men and women a dime a dozen, but they're protected by fellow adult children who call their nonsense "
valid" instead of telling them to grow the fuck up and lay off the internet/anime/video games. It's crazy how quickly this kind of behavior has transformed from sideshow freakishness into something that's normal and even celebrated. It'll be interesting to see how this affects mainstream culture and society.

>>500142I always wonder how Chris-chan would fare if he first surfaced in 2018 or so. In 2005 the Internet would relentlessly bully delusional autists but now he would probably be elevated to the status of a community leader and validated as a True and Honest tranny. Like you said being a narcissist, borderline sociopathic lunatic has become so mundane and mainstream that instead of being hilarious it's now just scary and threatening.
>>500153NanjoKoji? I think she's still active to some point. She was the heiress to some unbelievably rich family and exploited the fuck out of that privilege, getting expensive luxury photoshoot locations and literally gilding her Trinity Blood cosplay props. And yes, she was the one who crappily photoshopped a nippleless male chest on her.

This thread made me go way back in the efagz archive for old times sake. I just found the first post about pixyteri in efanz from 2011. It's really sad looking at this post and thinking about her life now. I'd link the posts but you need to be a member of the community to see them. Here's some photos from the post that have survived. I hope 2020 is kind to her.

My background: Been on the internet since 2000, born in the very late 80's
>Did you belong to any old school cow-tracking communities like fandom_wank or Encyclopedia Dramatica?I did read and contribute to ED from maybe 2005 to 2007 or so and browsed fandom_wank. I also followed a ton of other cow tracking places but I think those communities are long dead or faded into obscurity because I can't even remember their names anymore. Something Awful used to do spotlights for the cows found from their own forums before they turned all woke in the 2010s.
>Are there any cows that you used to follow before places like lolcow and KF existed/became huge?A lot of them. I always had people to "stalk" but they didn't have a dedicated term back then. A good share of the people I followed were from my local communities and fandoms, I mostly laughed at them with friends. One of them I witnessed growing up from a 12 year old to a 20 year old (I was only two years older than her) until she disappeared from my radar. I never interacted with her nor wished to, I simply observed her life she was sharing out in the open. It was like a reality TV show or a reoccurring story I was fascinated with. But definitely makes me think if someone has been tracking me for years which is why I'm paranoid about nuking all my traces. And not oversharing my personal life.
>Did a cow terrorize your local internet forum, livejournal group, IRC channel, etc.?Some of them did, and that's how I found them. I used to frequent a forum and an IRC channel which attracted a lot of spergs.
>Which old cows do you miss the most/wish were still active?Most of the cows that I miss are my personal cows I can't name. But like so many other people I miss PixyTeri. I miss the time of laughing at cows to begin with. A-logging has always been retarded and crossing the line but a bit of fucking around with them without causing any real harm is funny, like trolling Chris-chan with dickgirl Rosechus is hilarious but forcing him to stuck pieces of his Sonichu medallion up his rectum is sick and uncalled for. A lot of pearl-clutching people nowadays go straight to calling authorities and branding a cow as some sort of a criminal for just being an idiot or having a weird fetish. Vice versa they believe trolling is serious abuse when it's just teasing without any actual consequences besides someone throwing a temper tantrum.
>Are you wondering what happened to an old cow or know what happened to one?Sometimes yeah, usually I've already stopped caring and assume they graduated from their cowdom and quit the internet or grew up. Some of them kinda had their novelty worn out so I ceased following them, there's only so many times you can laugh at someone drawing unimaginative Sonic OCs until it becomes repetitive and boring. Being appalled by Usagi Kou in 2007 was still fresh but now she's pretty much a sad 30something woman trying to stay afloat with pointless, stale drama.
Some of them age like fine wine though, like I would've never imagined that Dave Kelly/shmorky would be outed as a babyfur tranny preying on mentally ill young girls and this was only a couple of years ago. I always wondered why he never entered the actual animating industry because he definitely had talent when it comes to cartoony movement, but apparently it was because he was offered a lot of deals but only wanted to draw his Smurf ripoff OCs pissing and shitting on each other. Other ones remain as cows but learn to hide it better, then out of the blue there's a truth bomb dropped on people when some estranged ex decides to speak out or someone discovers their alt account.

>>500291All of that shit is just a consequence of the stuff that is actually ruining the internet, largely including but not limited to the platforms that reward extremism and black-and-white thinking and allow extremists to organize and spread their beliefs. As soon as social media caught on with the mainstream, it was inevitable that popular ideological and cultural movements would be taken to their extremes by virtue of the fact that social media is designed to broadcast the loudest speakers and the most absolutist opinions, from leftists embracing vanguardism and authoritarianism to liberalism becoming narcissistic and fixated on identity to right-wingers embracing conspiracy theories/an alternate reality and celebrating terrorists to teens no longer being satisfied with asserting themselves by joining fashion- and music-based subcultures and seeking out more extreme measures like transitioning or hopping aboard weird fetish trends.

The likes of gender-bending edgecows like SithLordAli being in this thread remind of Wolfie Blackheart/the Crimson Blood Wolf Pack from 2010-2011, if anyone even remembers the "teen werewolves" scene. The last I've seen of her online presence was in 2016 and I believe she's a TiF and taking testosterone now (she did identify as trans as early as 2010.) She was 16/17 when her "wolf pack" broke on local news, so she'd be 26/27 now.
This shit caused the formation of so many "wolf packs" by kids at my middle school during that time and they'd invent fake beef with the "vampire" kids even to the point of creating groups on Facebook where they'd all argue and threaten to kill each other. Good times, I guess?
No. 500585
>>500581I believe most of the members identified as otherkin and therian. I recall Wolfie calling herself so in an interview.
She was involved in a scandal like that, yeah, which is how the entire "wolf pack" got on the news - basically, she did taxidermy and preserved animal parts as a hobby, and after a friend of hers' dog died they consented to her cutting the dog's head off for it to be preserved. She uploaded the picture of the dog's severed head to Facebook in her "wolf pack" group, but it got into the hands of the wrong people who then reported her to local authorities thinking she murdered her friend's dog. A different friend of hers who was in that "pack" and was mentioned on the news for it (despite having nothing to do with the situation) ended up committing suicide because people at school recognized him and bullied him terribly. Crazy shit.

It's weird, I don't enjoy remembering the 'good ol' days'. It's almost like a negative nostalgia. I digress…
I was one of those born and raised on 4chan types, /CGL/ introduced me to cows, though I was unknowingly familiar with a few before that. I never got too into Chris-chan, but I used to lurk ED and loved going through random articles to read the fuckery (pre-the first shut down).
I can feel for the Gaiafags in here too, used to talk to SLA on AOL here n' there even. Never believed she was a he, but I sometimes wonder if many people 'really' did.
From CGL I remember mainly zerod0min or whatever her handle was, Pixy, some of the old trips, Charms (I knew 'of' her on Gaia but never really interacted)… I'm sure there's so many more I've forgotten. I remember for a time I'd only go to cgl to check out the drama… now I don't touch foot there, and lolcow feeds my drama-gossip magazine thrills just fine

Kailyn hasn't produced milk in years either, it seems.

She's really a munchie and attention whore more than a lolcow (she had real-life influence while most cows just wish they did, lol) but who remembers Belle Gibson and all the hundreds-of-thousands-of-dollars worth of shit that went down?
I've always wondered what motivated her to lie on such a grand scale, about her age, upbringing, conditions, all of it, especially if just to make the "natural medicine" and "whole food" lifestyles look healthier and more credible than they actually were. Nobody, not even her family, knows why she did. She's got a kid, too, and I can't imagine the hell that that poor kid has to go through having her as a mother. The last I heard of her situation was that she owes somewhere around $410,000 to Australian courts and hasn't paid it, despite going on a nearly $15,000 vacation to Africa and constantly being seen shopping at outlet stores.
