Wow this got so out of hands. Damn. Like I get adding the memes and stuff. I find those very funny and it made me giggle despite not knowing what half of the references are about, but I don’t need to, so I never really cared. There was this one Vietnamese team that did this kind of styles and I loved it as well, but I think they were pressured into doing a serious translation and the memed stuff go where dedicated fans would look. They uploaded to the largest Vietnamese site and the rules there weren't particularly enforced.
I do kinda remember what went down in that timeframe but I wasn’t particularly interested in it back then, and my English isn’t that good to be reading academic papers and understanding the jargons used in this threads.
One question, why don’t mods just delete all those comments and just keep all the “normal” comments (for lack of a better word)
