Vote switching is by far the gayest thing I have ever seen tbh.
I might switch my vote if I'm properly incentivized.
It would probably annoy rusty
I do that just by breathing.

If you were sorry you would have picked the correct game.

The vote has been completely hijacked by asshurt oldfags who never even post let alone actually play guild games. Like brown migrants fleeing from their shitholes they've decided to ruin the place they've relocated to.

What's funny is that video was definitely made by like a 22 year old dude. The idea that 80s stuff isn't popular among zoomers is really funny.

Never was a fan of how establishment approved, sanitised, bland, and boring pop music was but it seems particularly dire right now.
