>>10911500The midwest cgl scene is actually closer to what you'd see pre-2016 cgl be in terms of cat fights, petty drama, rumor mills, and so on. However there are two big differences.
1) Instead of them spawning their own discords to get away from problems they all stuck around eachother for who can only assume is drama fuel.
2) Decided that 4chan cgl somehow hasn't changed ever in what people view it as and assume people still care about gossip like this
There is a reason almost every other community took their issues to the thunderdome of discord out of anons sights. I only assume they keep this up because they've cultivated such a community of weirdos that any fresh blood are scared away before they even look into any of the claims they have. The last few cons I've gone to it's been down right depressing unless they can talk about how 'dumb and gay' things are or get told a story about a member who would scare off anyone with 2 brain cells. Last years midwest was the final straw for me. They fail to realize that by constantly non stop talking about these things they only implicate themselves as hanging around these weirdos.
