WOW some people are so lame, nothing better to do with their time than to get their hands on a botnet just to spam a forum #lowlifescum

Apparently Kim Jong-un is unimpressed with his Switch. Maybe his screen got scratched or was having problems with Splatoon testfire.

[Mr. Wizard]

Chinese?

Korean, or at least that's what they want us to believe...

 

[Arck]

Just 1 click to ban the author and delete all of his thread in the same time
