    If they’re legitimate users, I expected them to continue to exist, occasionally commenting on memes and cat pictures and whatnot like the rest of us.

    But they’re entirely gone instead, almost as if they stopped working once they stopped getting paid.

      I’ve been around, commenting on stuff! Which specific users are you talking about disappearing? I’d love to see actual evidence for this conspiracy theory!

                Were they not permabanned or something? My comment is based on a thread comment, but you’re apparently in-the-know or doing research on this.

                I do like how the other user who commented on mine got banned in the middle of this. How quaint.

                  They were permabanned, but not because of their politics. It was because they were an antagonistic troll.

                  What commentor got banned?

                    A very selective bar, that.

      Do you have all these usernames memorized or something? How can you be so certain they are “entirely gone”
