this is like trying to drama the furry megathread or the brony megathread (when it was relevant) imo
they're just a group of people goofin' and gaffin', keeping it in their own thread, and not letting the memes spill out into the other threads. though I'm not a regular there and can agree that the people there should really tone down the erp and other weird stuff to make it more open for casual discussion, the thread itself isn't inherently harmful and people can peacefully ignore it if they dislike the content (instead of, you know, barging in and causing a fuss in the topic itself)
we have garbage cans not because we like garbage, but because we need to keep it in one place.
