Did OTD get less awful?

I wondered into OTD a few years ago and the threads were all people calling each other shitbirds and the n word 
I accidentally just clicked on OTD and read a thread and legit thought I was in the pub.
What happened?
Maybe the pub just became like OTD

I haven't checked in there in a while. At some point in the past there was no Pub and OTD was pretty similar to what the Pub is now, except that goatse and tubgirl kind of shit was allowed. When I got active on the site again a few years ago, it seemed like mostly a clique of grumpy old-timers trying to drive away people on Pub bans, and those newer posters trying to be "edgy" to fit in.

I checked it the last few days and it's absolutely abysmal...I'd say it's even worse than it used to be 10 years ago. I used to quite enjoy posting in there back in the day 
The post you saw must just be a one off.

It wasnt great before but i wish it was a little more like it used to be where the stupid and annoying were unrelentingly berated til they either left or attempted to argue further (the melt) and look even more like a jackass than when they first entered.
Now you have posters like that JFT character in there calling people "faggots" constantly. Something very wrong about that.

It's probably cuz peeps are finally realizing that theres really no place to hide around these parts. Sure, u can go into otd and call peeps "faggots", or post anynomous and stuff, but it doesnt change the fact that u just called someone a faghot, u cant just expect to waltz back into the pub and pretend like ure not a two faced pipsqueak.

Otd has always been a dumpster fire... Ime. There just used to be more vagrants huddled around it is all.
Itll make a revival of some sorts one day... Its all relative.

Your posts stats reveal; that is a lie.
Unless those 16 posts we're insanely enjoyable and memorable.

I don't know about all that man. The pub itself is pretty fucked.
