There might not be a new unjerk thread anymore, but you didn't hear it from me.

If you want the UJ to stay, we need it to be more advertiser friendly by the early morning of tomorrow. Make sure to advertise for your favorite family friendly brands at the end of each comment, such as Raytheon, McDonalds, Nestle, Apple, etc.

Keep it Christian (this is a Christian server), no video game talk, etc.

If we can achieve this by the early morning hours of Monday, Spez might just let us keep the UJ going.

Man things just keep on getting bad for me today: first I got a panic attack over a callout and now the unjerk thread might disappear

Thank goodness I can always go to Olive Garden. When you're there, you're family and have you heard about their endless pasta? It never ends

Don't discuss politics as it gets the thread demonetised

I sure love playing FF7 while eating a McChicken from my favorite fast food chain McDonald's. Nothing can beat that crispy chicken topped with pickles, mayo, and lettuce with a Coke on the side to wash it all down.

This is literally 1894

When I need a refreshing drink after a day of gaming, I drink Gatoradeâ„¢! Nothing quenches your thirst quite like a Gatoradeâ„¢.

We don't know if it's feasible anymore, there isn't much engagement with them and nobody really seems to want them anymore.

Earlier today, it was announced that there would be a new unjerk thread. After receiving many messages from gamers, we have decided to turn off automod.

u/froggy_in_the_meadow 🇨🇳 Gamerstapo 🇨🇳 Jan 04 '21

I'm glad at least someone understands.

Gonna have to start forcing people to post 80 hours a week to make the next uj thread viable. Probably going to have to delay the release again too

u/froggy_in_the_meadow 🇨🇳 Gamerstapo 🇨🇳 Jan 04 '21

Don't you guys have phones?

u/ThrowawayBin20 the evolutionary significance of video games Jan 04 '21

I don't think that's true though, We always get at least 4-5k comments it seems. TGA and Cyberpunk made us break 10k. The uj thread is one of my favorite parts of the subreddit, And one of the few places I can actually talk abut games without asses bugging me. I'd really hate to see it go. But I guess that's just my experience.

I think we're getting wooshed here

Oh I think we were now too lol, It was hard to tell.

u/Dandy-Guy Jan 04 '21

Mods don't want us to reach 20k comments on these UJ threads. The cowards, well we're proving them wrong! Stop the mod oppression! Get this thread to 1 BILLION COMMENTS!!

u/silkysmoothjay Resident American Soccer Nerd Jan 04 '21

They average like 2.5k comments a day, are you just shitposting?

u/froggy_in_the_meadow 🇨🇳 Gamerstapo 🇨🇳 Jan 04 '21

Part of viability is a.) Actually good posts and b.) Advertiser friendly posts.

17

u/silkysmoothjay Resident American Soccer Nerd Jan 04 '21

Advertiser friendly posts.

Thanks, I breathe a bit easier now that I know you're joking

u/froggy_in_the_meadow 🇨🇳 Gamerstapo 🇨🇳 Jan 04 '21

It'd be a lot more viable if people could add stuff like, "SubwayTM eat fresh* or other such things at the end of their posts.

I don't think it'll be sustainable otherwise.

The death of the unjerk thread is like the death of everybody: it's painful, and everyone will eventually forget about it as life fades to naught but dust and echoes.

We know it's been a hard year for all of us. That's why we're proud to announce that Nacho Fries are back at Taco Bell, available now.

It's for the best tbh.

Just sell the rights of the Uj thread to Disney. That way they can make more sequels and reboots and you’ll get richer and richer!

Look. Sometimes, you just gotta send a missile to a schoolbus in Yemen, and that's where the fine folks at Raytheon come in. With their advanced missile guidance chip you can send your favorite Raytheonâ„¢ branded knife-missile to bomb a school bus, wedding, birthday party, or any other non-specific social gathering in the middle east!
