1,000+ Pages of NeoGAF: The Story of Wasted Lives and Hardcore Salt

Sometimes you just want to inflict maximum damage, brehs.

I did this once in childhood (and consigned it to my litanies of Zeno's Conscience shitposts here) and once as a tween and I still think about those times years later, especially the latter one.

It's really not worth it unless you're completely devoid of remorse.

[Phoenix Dark]

sounds like yall are jealous of Awesom-O's IQ and master's degree.

[Squiddy]

You can either be like me and respect people, or you can be like r/neofeg and hope to eventually evolve into... something.
The choice is yours, Walrus-boy.
Who would you rather be?

[Phoenix Dark]

Thoughts on deliberately misgendering trans posters who have become insufferable? I can see how it's a bit fucked up,  but also a pretty funny and effective weapon to keep in the arsenal.

Be a white liberal, brehs.

To be fair, what else can they do on his board though? You either defend him or don't post at all and keep your actual thoughts to yourself. Their hands are tied.

I know bringing directly personal shit to this thread is kind of looked down on, so I apologize.

I don't expect people to be as hard up on social justice as I am, but I do at least expect legitimate questions regarding Evilore's stances on women to be allowed on GAF. For a forum that I, personally, find to be a very open and progressive space in general his views and actions added up over time are pretty out of whack. Questioning those views shouldn't be a problem. So I posted this thread which was summarily deleted without note.

Evilore posts some really, really questionable shit about women. It turns out he also posted revenge porn. If he can't answer for that in a way that makes his users comfortable that is a personal problem, but there are a LOT of people on GAF that wouldn't look very kindly on his actions over time and they should know who exactly they are contributing money to.

It is absolute bullshit that the thread would be deleted. If the answer is "People who feel this way should leave" have the balls to say that upfront. I might be the ONLY PERSON who feels uncomfortable giving him money if those views haven't changed, but FFS at least let people discuss it. It isn't an attack on his character. It isn't an attack on GAF. And it isn't a ploy to feign outrage. Dude said some really fucked up things and DID some really fucked up things. I, for one, would like to know if he's changed at all or is at all remorseful.

[Phoenix Dark]

I'm all for treating e-assholes equally: like shit. Everyone gets Ls, I get my fair share. But there are plenty of ways to give dax an L without disrespecting her as a person.

She's an attention seeking, self righteous dumbass...focus on that instead of being a piece of shit about her trans identity.

[king of the internet]

I feel like the deletion was your answer. If it escalates I'm sure he'll toss out some sort of forced apology to protect his image, but I've learned that Evilore is not the type of ever admit to being wrong.

Answer, not error. Fucking autocorrect.

Pickles

[Satch]

oh dear sweet lovely well-meaning foolish pickles...

[Himu]

That ass grab is going to follow Evilore around for the rest of his internet days. During his funeral, r/neofag and the rest of the opaborough baptist church will protest with printouts glued to signs that screencap his misdeeds

[king of the internet]

I hope they spare Pickles.  We need the likes of him over there.

[Shaka Khan]

The thing about "that was 8 years ago; he's matured" type of argument is that it's extending an age-based immunity that's not available to everyone he's been condemning. Those people are for all we know pimple-faced kids, who're posting terrible tweets in-between respawns.

At the same time, I don't think the right way of going about this is to excuse vile behaviors cause "kids are gonna be kids, and boys will be boys" but at least having some awareness of his audience and adjusting his tone, rather than sticking to the condescending, sanctimonious one he's been exhibiting. I don't think he's gonna win anyone over with his recent tweets and posts on the subject, and I suspect he never intended to be constructive. It's almost pointless to expect anything more from him.

So where does that leave us? Well, it leaves up patiently waiting for him taking huge L an apologizing. I personally hope this gets WAY more traction until he's forced to do something other than handing out bans, and deleting posts/threads. Some humility might do him some good...

[G The Resurrected]

Saw that thread title and knew it would be account suicide. Sorry pickles

[Rman]

It's funny that people saying he was young, let if go, don't show any mercy to others who did dumb stuff in their youth.  Go to any discussion about someone with a checkered past and you'll have people constantly bring those ''sins'' up ad naseam. 

The place is unforgiving.

To be honest, I doesn't matter what he did.  The issue is his holier than thou persona.  We're all assholes.  But there's not need to act like the paragon of virtue and social justice and let your site become an outrage machine.

A few years ago he even was concerned about the social justice warriors ganging up on others and threads and wanted to return to fun times.  I guess that's long gone.

[Joe Molotov]

I think it needs to be reiterated that amir0x printed out those pictures, jerked off onto them, then took a picture of the jizzed-on pics and reposted them on OA, as described in this post:

Damn that's a long ass ban.  What a coward.

[Your Stalker]

it's only 6 months

[Shaka Khan]

6 month ban? I expected a perma for sure.

[Rman]

Sorry Pickles, I understand want to bring that shit to light. But it was most definitely an account suicide even if you didn't realize it.

Nothings going to happen here, by the way. GamerGate is extremely irrelevant to the point where most game sites who might give enough of a shit to write something about this will ignore it due to GamerGate being involved. He'll probably apologize if it snowballs, even if he doesn't too many people will keep posting there anyway. So really, y'all should stop caring. Lore's been a piece of shit for a good minute though, learn to ignore it

By the way, what is GamerGate even doing? Are they trying to go after GAF for what they're known for going after all the time? While doing much worse than EviLore did? That's strange as hell.

The Gamergate folks are just mad salty at anyone not giving them airtime.  EL originally scoffed at the coverage, posted emails with their full names about people asking about Zoey Quinn threads being locked, and later dissed the movement on Twitter.  They're just using these current revelation to reveal any perceived hypocrisy.

[Kara]

lol, etiolate and bluemax got perm'd by Lore for far less than that Pickles.

I guess fighting the good fight pays off.

[zepblackstar]

the fuck is a signal boost

I have seen Wil WHeaton use it as a tag as sort of a herd call to retweet something. so it can't be good

best part is someone will do a screenshot of that thread and call out neogaf as a hivemind.

At this point gamergate  has gone from overall journo ethics and calling out the "SJW" as the foundation to singling out individuals for being assholes see Leigh Alexander.

Ah OK, makes sense.

I gotta say, it is funny the EviLore can do that and still have those dudes posting there. Rustling them to shits. That's pretty hilarious. Man has made dude's salty for damn near a fucking decade now with no downfall in sight. That's some magnificent bastard cliche from some shitty power up shonen anime type shit.

I don't mind EL.  He's just a dude like any other just with an online hustle.  NeoGAF is basically his guest house, so I behave and the dude, while being an asshole at times, is tolerable for someone raised on IRC and the Internet. 

The faux outrage is annoying, though . Calling out Boogie for using ''cigarillo'' on fucking 4chan and having the whole forum just gang up was a bit low class.  We're all pieces of shite.  Stop acting like you're not. 

[Pickles the Firecat]

Six months isn't really that long.

tbh if Evilore has no interest in clarifying his current beliefs and expressing contrition for the reprehensible shit he did I don't know if I want to be a part of the site either way. I know that's a weird position to take but I have weird hangups about things. OTOH the communities are too dope to deny. I guess I have six month to weigh that.

I have to imagine that back and forth is a lot more tumultuous for certain mods. Not calling anyone out, but there are several people on staff who I would consider incredibly thoughtful, intelligent, sincere, caring, and helpful individuals. People I go out of my way to read because of their insight. Knowing that they actively generate money for someone with that baggage is probably tough.

And then there's what fistful got perm'd for...

[fey]

bitch bye 6 months??? and i get a perm for calling out that fat bitch rosalinda?

[Oblivion]

Pickles, did you get banned for that thread?

edit: okay just saw the message.

Thought that would have been a perm for sure.

[Himu]

[Oblivion]

Wow, that message is very reminiscent of Romney's comments about how things like inequality should only be discussed in quiet rooms. 

[Shaka Khan]

[Eel O'Brian]

Those people are for all we know pimple-faced kids, who're posting terrible tweets in-between respawns.

My mind transposed "respawns" with the word "perm" further down this thread and I read it as this:

Those people are for all we know pimple-faced kids, who're posting terrible tweets in-between resperms.

I busted out laughing for real, and then thought "still applicable."

[team filler]

I got perm for quoting someone else's post and that guy only got a couple months or some shit.

[Rahxephon91]

I got banned for talking bad about moe games.

You could probably blame Duckroll for that ban.

think he makes himself out to be the drudgereport of video gaming. some of the journos don't care for him.

[I'm a Puppy!]

It seems people forget about the appropriate level of reciprocation.

Yeah I get it, Dax is always being "me me me!" and being as ass to others. I therefore think it's ok to not be ok with that and call her out on that.
That however doesn't mean that it's ok to post her pics everywhere or taunt her for her identity or any number of things that have happened out there.
It's like someone is always stepping on your foot and in response you proceed to make them gargle your piss and then saying "Well, they stepped on my foot!"

At least it isn't a perm.

Yet...?

[close]

Yeah, lore usually perms people for a combination of metagaf posting and 'hmmm, this guy might be a little bit of a dick sometimes' posting. so really 6 months isn't as bad as i'd have thought. Oh well, plenty of extra time to get a new hobby or something

Can't lose Pickles, bb. One of the better posters on that board.
