Yes.

He was also hardcore simping over the user Fiction and estalked her on social sites, he contacted her and said he was going to off himself. He posted more than one suicide thread on Gaf I think.

I was coming just to post that. (Edited with a "view single post" link, meanwhile. People should start using that for Post Per Page differences) Frankie is good people, despite how badly handled Halo's IP/games have been under him/343's direction. It'd be a shame if he left the board, but he's like the only "notable game dev" still on the board that isn't random PR person there to fluffer NeoGAF. He's there to discuss with people. I've ran across him in Microsoft hardware threads in the past. Good guy, and I like him. But I wouldn't blame him for leaving the board if he's tired of it.

If I had to guess, Evilore checked out and let mods have more freedom to do what they want. I doubt Evilore has favoritism towards as many users as some mods do, same thing with petty vendettas or grievances (Evilore can be petty, but its usually more private and retardedly nuanced).

Evilore is to blame for not keeping the mods on an actual leash, the mods are to blame for enforcing their own rules which are actually complete garbage and have hurt the site tremendously.

It's really annoying buying clothes when you're built like that. You can tell that he had to buy pants a few sizes larger in the waist in order to get his thighs to fit, but that makes the crotch too long and he loses the taper in his pants. Same problem with the arms on the jacket. It just takes a lot of tailoring to get it to fit perfectly. Not only that but it can really limit your options in trendier stores. It's even worse if you're on the shorter side but really built. You have to get everything tailored, even your shirts to not look sloppy.

fully understand any dev/person of visible status to wanting sever themselves entirely from GAF, especially any with microsoft affiliation, but to swear it off just after releasing your first turkey feels a little get ball-take ball-go home.

the bore is all about personality accounts. a lot of anonymity around but it's still just people brushing up against each other. GAF used to be like that, but now the decent personality accounts have either fled or been reborn as anonymous snark posters who steer clear divulging anything remotely personal, while self promoting aspirational nerd jobs who are desperate for an outlet put themselves about like a pedo in a ball pool.

Olivia Wilde Homo · « **Reply #33171 on:** May 31, 2015, 08:25:47 AM »

GAF had a lot of game developers and industry types around a decade ago. They've been getting scared off since 2007-2008 when Evilore realized he could make more money catering to 4chan/GameFAQs runoff than maintaining an environment where developers and journalists could thrive in. To be fair, that was the right financial decision. He may want NeoGAF to be respected and lucrative but in the end, he picks what is lucrative 9 times out of 10. Which is why dipshits like Liu Kang Baking a Pie runs around unchecked; catering to shitheads brings in the money.

On the one hand, you have outragers doing their outraging thing and blowing up 100 page threads, because the shadows in a game might be a bit off from the CGI announce trailer two years prior

On the other, you have defenders on call 24/7 to do their defending thing at the slightest criticism of game-breaking bugs or piss-poor performance, because you can't let your ~~sole reason for living~~ treasured console manufacturer go unshielded

I'd imagine a lot of devs have a love/hate thing with gaf

Eh... 343's first "turkey" was with Halo 4 for a lot of people. Though the people that worked on the engine (Yu and a few others) made it competent. 343's insistence on "Call of Duty"-fying the game harmed it. 343's oversight on Master Chief Collection completely breaking the entire collection was just the visible gash and that bled.

I'd say I wouldn't put half the attacks on Frankie strictly on GAF. Even Bungie.net (or whatever the replacement for that is)/Halo community in general is extremely toxic and has been getting bad since the second title. It's just now that people know the director posts on GAF, they started to sign up for GAF and start to be really bitter/cynical toward the series.

Couldn't have put it better. I also think that Evilore is now like a drunk king who kicks the door in and changes random laws and banishes some peasants for the color of their clothes. The other peasants cheer his greatness and wish only to be mentioned by him. But then Evilore only talks to site celebrities, and then drives off in his Porsche.

When Evilore changes the rules, goes against the current built-up narrative, or bans for feelings, the other mods have to realize that the rules they have been running with are pretty silly. The whole "cunt is a mean word" episode is evidence of that.

It's his site, it's not a public service after all.
