    It's up to @Rodman23 who has been quiet for a long time! He's the myth & the legend.

    The Increasing Urbanization of the Clutchfans Meme Experience.

    Okay, so, this isn't related to the posts in the GARM, but to the actual meme experience at Clutchfans.

    We are contributing members and have been for several years. We've observed a noticeable shift in the focus of the dank aspects of the meme experience. Whereas you used to see little snippets of meta as a popular thread would rise, that's almost entirely gone.

    Regarding the power gifs, I don't know who is doing their splicing or choosing their fonts now vs. years past, but there's been a huge drop off. It seems that nearly every gif now has text strutting around to some motion tracking and trying to look flashy and bold. I don't particularly find it entertaining to see memes still come out in Impact font, or doing the deep fried thing that's so prevalent in the dank culture. I'm sure somebody involved with them thinks its a good idea but it looks pretty ridiculous to see these memes trying to emulate a repost on reddit.

    I'm a supporter of diversity, but please let's be fair to all. Particularly, let's not marginalize those of us that make up the bulk of shitposters here. My family and I are meme novices, and we really feel like, in trying to appeal to those enamored with dank culture, Clutchfans has really stopped trying to resonate and identify with us.

    Please don't label me normie for pointing these facts out, for it's not a normal issue. Even my successful Chad friends have mentioned that its a bit ridiculous and overboard at times. Successful, mature Chads that I know are into that type of garbage. It's kind of disappointing that at a time when Clutchfans is on an upswing, the meme experience has suffered.

    Clearly this thread needs bumping, updating, and a new title for 2018-19

    "I have considered for a long time opening up a private site for insiders to exchange information on an anonymous basis. Only proven insiders could post and all outsiders would have to pay a subscription fee to simply view the anonymous insider posts. If any of you like the idea, contact me through email. I may even contact Clutch and see if we can do it in conjunction with this site if he's interested." - basketballtrollic

    Couldn't someone then just take the "insider post" and post it on Clutchfans for others to see free?

    Copy and paste will be prohibited. Paraphrasing will lead to execution.

    Did he get banned already? I was going to tag him in @Darrell 's new thread and tell him 'this is how it's done' but I can't tag him. That didn't take very long!
