(A naked female orc shock-image meme posted at dawn)
(A collection of post titles rife with profanity)
I feel like I'm being rude for no reason ㅠㅜ
I didn't want to say this since it would be meddling in other people's business ㅠㅠㅠ
But the posts are so filthy? Like sewers? I feel like I might start cursing too..ㅠㅠ
Would you consider equipping yourselves with just a little manners when writing posts?ㅠ

ㄴ Did the elf shills' ears go into reverse attack? Suspect brain damage.

ㄴ It's not about the elves, but maybe you should refrain from saying things that imply someone has no mother...? ㅠㅠ

“We're fucked.”
After the introduction of the People of the Market ranking system.
The gallery went completely off the rails.
It wasn't just one particular post, either.
Posts filled with indirect digs and attempts to provoke people had become standard.

These proxy-buying services began springing up everywhere much faster than I had expected.

From ranking-up guides and question posts to bizarre upvote counts on completely empty posts.

- What the fuck, why does this have so many upvotes?
“The premise was wrong from the very beginning.”
I had created the ranking system after countless people fell victim to naked female orc shock images, hoping it would encourage them to calm down.
But what business did a gallery have with a ranking system?
The ranking system was a troll-making machine.
I had only hoped to provide some moderate motivation, but modern food was like a drug to people in the Middle Ages.
In the end, I had no choice but to surrender with both hands, both feet, and every last strand of hair raised in defeat.

- Ah lol, you can't argue with “Stop”
- Using “Stop” like a coward
- Yeah, so what did you call us for?
- Head Mod*) I'm abolishing the ranking system ㅇㅇ This doesn't seem like something we should be doing.
ㄴ Nice!
ㄴ As expected, the Super Head Mod restores the gallery to normal.
ㄴ Wow, the Super Head Mod fixed it in less than half a day lol
ㄴ But why put the main point in the comments instead of the main post?
ㄴ Because... it's fun...
“Not the gallery café...”
At least while I was Head Mod, the gallery had to remain a gallery.
Indirectly insulting each other and reporting one another was something they could do in that distant canyon, and nowhere else!
- Then how are you going to change it?
ㄴ lol, so everything can be purchased, right?
ㄴ I've been thinking about chicken all day. This is awesome.
ㄴ sax
The gallery instantly turned festive at my defeat announcement.
They thought this meant they could eat as much chicken as they wanted, just like yesterday.
- Head Mod*) That's not what I said?
ㄴ ?
ㄴ ??
But abolishing the ranking system didn't mean I planned to make chicken available without limit.
“I made an absurd amount of gyeongdan from the chicken I sold in a single day...”
To me, gyeongdan were merely one of several good sources of experience.
They must not become the main thing.
Chicken isn't handed down from heaven.
I purchased it from the shop with points, so ultimately, my points were what decreased.
“Points are always right.”
The most important currency to me was, without question, points.
Besides, the gallery users' indiscriminate spending wasn't particularly good for the gallery, either.
[‘People of the Market’ is temporarily closed.]
- ?
- Huh?
- No, fuck, this can't be happening!!1!!
In the end, I decided to temporarily shut down the People of the Market system.
[Notice: Announcement Regarding People of the Market]
Posted by: Head Mod*
I meant to use this to stop naked female orc shock images and tactical nukes in moderation, but I failed.
From upvote-manipulation squads to proxy buying, if this went any further, all sorts of crimes would probably appear ㅇㅇ
So I closed it.
Q. What am I supposed to do if there's no chicken?
A. It's not that. It's due to the temporary closure...
x
- It takes too long.
- It sounds like you're showing off your intellectual vanity.
- There's a 100% chance of an argument breaking out.
Q. What am I supposed to do if there's no chicken?
A. Then die.

- Fuck, this isn't right.
- Ah, fuck, ah... Head Mod bro!
- No, this is tyranny!!!!!
ㄴ Head Mod*) (Frog emote with a mustache)
Modern people had become accustomed to delivery food.
There was no way medieval gallery users could endure it any better.
Naturally, protests flooded in, but...
But where was this?
The Otherworld Destruction Gallery.
“Then die.”
Once I left a notice containing that perfect logic, the notifications began exploding.
[Moderator Chat]
VampireTillDeath: H-Head Mod?
Full-HP Elf: W... we're people who even exchanged tokens with each other...
DragonDragonWillDie: ㅇuㅇ I think Head Mod is an excellent leader who cares about their subordinates.
Naturally, my slaves—no, my blue mods—were also flustered and hurriedly sent me messages.
But they had no reason to be so surprised.
Head Mod*: Yeah, you guys get whatever you ask for.
VampireTillDeath: Love you.
Full-HP Elf: I... I... y-y-y-yahoooo!!!
DragonDragonWillDie: //ㅇuㅇ//
There were only a few of them, after all, so giving them whatever they wanted wouldn't cause any significant loss of points.
The blue mods were people who worked without even receiving the hourly wages paid to the gallery's part-timers.
[Notice: Announcement Regarding People of the Market (Revised)]
Posted by: Head Mod*
Ah, our blue mods, as well as the gallery doctors and part-timers who work hard managing our gallery, are excluded haha.
[Upvotes 3921] [Downvotes 7795]
- Th-this is tyranny!
- Head Mod, how could you do this to us?
ㄴ Head Mod*) (Frog emote: Want a blue badge?)
ㄴ Eeeelf aaaagh!
ㄴ Hweeeek
Fortunately, after the gallery users agreed, this one part was permitted.
“Is this solved?”
I had successfully put the ranking system, which had been the source of the problem, to rest without much complaint.
*
Of course it wasn't.
“No, isn't one chicken a week okay?”
Even after changing it to one chicken per person per week, if only to conserve points, the gallery remained the same.
[Title: How to Make Chicken Seasoning Sauce]
(GIF of a frog grinning smugly)
Actually, this is bait.
There's no such thing.
But what are you going to do about it?
What can you do, you worthless little shit? lol
What can you do besides getting really angry or swearing in the comments, you little shit?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

- Phew...
[Title: Did the Chicken Drop?!]
(6 days, 23 hours, 10 minutes until the chicken purchase limit is lifted)
Nope, it hasn't.
Go buy and eat a meal kit from the Market lol.
[Upvotes 12] [Downvotes 12]
- I wait 6 days, 23 hours, and 10 minutes for 50 minutes...
ㄴ This is basically life.
ㄴ But why does an entity as powerful as Head Mod have to give you chicken?
ㄴ Don't hit me with facts, you son of a bitch.
- This is the hundredth time I've wondered whether I should just eat the chickens at home.
ㄴ You have chickens at home...?
ㄴ What a rich bastard.
There was a major problem with eating chicken.
The absence of oil, and the absence of meat.
Even if they somehow managed to fry meat, making the seasoning sauce in the Middle Ages was nearly impossible.
Of course, the gallery hadn't stopped functioning entirely just because chicken was unavailable.
“This is unexpected.”
No particular public opinion blaming me had formed, either.
Rather than blaming me for the purchase limit, they merely posted about their disappointment and regret.
[Title: The Way People Are So Fucking Fickle lol]
(GIF of a can of tuna worth 1 gyeongdan)
People who wouldn't even have known tuna existed were now eating their fill and sleeping without hunger thanks to Head Mod.
But the moment chicken appeared, they lost their minds and started whining about wanting chickenㅋㅋ
If I were Head Mod, I probably would've just thrown everything away lol
[Upvotes 420] [Downvotes 21]
- But that's a fact.
- If you blame Head Mod for not giving you chicken, what kind of human does that make you? lol
- Humans really are fickle, aren't they? haha
ㄴ You're included, you bastard.
[Title: Aren't Blue Mods Fucking Lucky?]
Even if I have to look at disgusting images, I want to browse the gallery like that, get chicken, and whine about how hard it is.
[Upvotes 0] [Downvotes 201]
- Do ittttt!
- You do it too!!!
- A blue mod? How dare you...
- You fucking gay bastard.
In the Middle Ages, chickens were gods.
They were animals that provided the precious protein of eggs and weren't especially difficult to raise.
Every single one was a valuable asset, so they couldn't be killed.
Even if they remembered the original taste and tried to make the sauce, there was no way they could reproduce it.
“Man, now I kind of feel sorry for them.”
If they had looked at my notice and cursed me out to their hearts' content, I could have adopted the “then die” mentality.
But everyone merely accepted the situation and became depressed, which made me feel sorry for them.
The gallery's mood naturally grew colder as well.
“Isn't there any way?”
Actually, yangnyeom chicken sauce itself was cheap.
But if I released it commercially, they would naturally end up killing the chickens they cherished, so it would be better not to release anything than to release the chicken sauce alone.
The problem was still the shortage of chicken meat...
