I caught 3 bans on GAF for "meta posting" which there isn't even a rule against in the TOS. And I meta posted constantly. The only times it actually got me banned was because some petty mod wanted to ban me, and I had happened to "meta post" in said thread.

NeoGAF is basically "Whose Line is it Anyways?"

Welcome to "NeoGAF" the site where the rules are made up and the points don't matter.

Meta-posting and being mean is only a thing when it triggers whatever mod is reading it at the time. Which means things they perceive as outside their ideas on liberalism.

You can harass the shit out of someone like the OP in the Liberalism thread, make all the alt-right meta-commentary you want, claim other posters are part of hate forums, but don't dare poke the liberal hive.

The moment someone on GAF breaks formation that hive will descend on them with the poise and temperament of an ICP concert thats handing out free bath salts. When that happens you need to "get back on topic" or "face a ban"....All while some self-proclaimed liberal is likely talking about alt-right accounts infesting GAF and for you to go back to Storm-front because you clearly hate minorities because you said a Polynesian Disney costume isn't comparable blackface.

Maybe they never devved on more than just PC before, but these guys would do good to show console fans some love here, because their W3 port was not stellar and now they have a chance to make it so.

All I heard from PC fans about this dev team was excellent support, but after consoles made their title really successful they're trying to say they can't get two guys to work on a .Pro patch...This is really absurd, hell, even greedy EA is patching games like crazy....

Are you black? Trump considers you sub-human and there's a very real chance you could be swept up in his internment camps.

Trump's not going to stop at deporting illegal immigrants. He believes racial profiling works and that white police officers could stop the "thug" gun problem within twenty-four hours after he takes office. The people he can't outright kill or deport are going to be rounded up and sent to internment camps.

If Republicans maintain their majorities in Congress, in state legislatures, and governorships, you can kiss the Voting Rights Act, the Civil Rights Act, same-sex marriage, rights for women, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, and freedom of assembly goodbye.

Is Hillary the best candidate for which we could hope? No.
Is the alternative a significant threat to roughly forty percent of the country? Yes.

If Trump isn't defeated, if the Democrats can't make inroads in Congress and across the country, Republicans will control the courts and elected offices for decades.

And George W. Bush's:

spoiler (click to show/hide)

Not that George W. Bush needs much encouragement, but Sen. Lindsey Graham suggested to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales a new target for the administration's domestic operations -- Fifth Columnists, supposedly disloyal Americans who sympathize and collaborate with the enemy.

"The administration has not only the right, but the duty, in my opinion, to pursue Fifth Column movements," Graham, R-S.C., told Gonzales during Senate Judiciary Committee hearings on Feb. 6.

"I stand by this president's ability, inherent to being commander in chief, to find out about Fifth Column movements, and I don't think you need a warrant to do that," Graham added, volunteering to work with the administration to draft guidelines for how best to neutralize this alleged threat.

"Senator," a smiling Gonzales responded, "the president already said we'd be happy to listen to your ideas."

In less paranoid times, Graham's comments might be viewed by many Americans as a Republican trying to have it both ways -- ingratiating himself to an administration of his own party while seeking some credit from Washington centrists for suggesting Congress should have at least a tiny say in how Bush runs the War on Terror.

Plus, there was that curious development in January when the Army Corps of Engineers awarded Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg Brown & Root a $385 million contract to construct detention centers somewhere in the United States, to deal with "an emergency influx of immigrants into the U.S., or to support the rapid development of new programs," KBR said.

Later, the New York Times reported that "KBR would build the centers for the Homeland Security Department for an unexpected influx of immigrants, to house people in the event of a natural disaster or for new programs that require additional detention space."

Like most news stories on the KBR contract, the Times focused on concerns about Halliburton's reputation for bilking U.S. taxpayers by overcharging for sub-par services. "It's hard to believe that the administration has decided to entrust Halliburton with even more taxpayer dollars," remarked Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif.

Less attention centered on the phrase "rapid development of new programs" and what kind of programs would require a major expansion of detention centers, each capable of holding 5,000 people. Jamie Zuieback, a spokeswoman for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, declined to elaborate on what these "new programs" might be.

Only a few independent journalists, such as Peter Dale Scott and Maureen Farrell, have pursued what the Bush administration might actually be thinking.

Scott speculated that the "detention centers could be used to detain American citizens if the Bush administration were to declare martial law." He recalled that during the Reagan administration, National Security Council aide Oliver North organized Rex-84 "readiness exercise," which contemplated the Federal Emergency Management Agency rounding up and detaining 400,000 "refugees," in the event of "uncontrolled population movements" over the Mexican border into the United States.

Farrell pointed out that because "another terror attack is all but certain, it seems far more likely that the centers would be used for post-911-type detentions of immigrants rather than a sudden deluge" of immigrants flooding across the border.

Vietnam-era whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg said, "Almost certainly this is preparation for a roundup after the next 9/11 for Mid-Easterners, Muslims and possibly dissenters. They've already done this on a smaller scale, with the 'special registration' detentions of immigrant men from Muslim countries, and with Guantanamo."

“The greater question is, what is the government planning to do with mass roundups of people?” said Ruth Conniff, editor of The Progressive magazine. “The involvement of private military contracts in what ought to be public law enforcement matters, that raises all sorts of questions. This should be discussed with Americans out in the open.”

You can bet that there is an "Internment Camp" for LGBTs if Trump is elected.

Question: Is building "Internment Camps, Holding Camps, Deportation Camps, Work Camps and Concentration Camps" part of "Infastructure Re-Building? Wow, what a smart President Businessman he will be. Wallls, Camps, executions in Times Square.....what a genious President this guy will be. I hear that now there will be enough jobs that every "White American" can work three jobs a day! We will all be rich! What a nice guy this new President wil be! And I love the idea of tearing down the Statue of Liberty and melting it down to make bullets for our "Newly Formed Personal Body Guard" for President Trump. His idea to close our borders to all but "White People" was a stroke of genious but the best idea ever was putting all of the Native American Indian Population down in the state of Texas.

It has two FOV options, just like the original. Low and super low.

“Bioshock is asking you…to make these choices…it’s much more important that you make a decision to pull the trigger and then you are the one who has to answer for it later.”-Leigh Alexander

Jason Moyer says:

I am not a great fool, so I can clearly not choose BioShock Infinite or Burial At Sea Part 1. But you must have known I was not a great fool, you would have counted on it, so I can clearly not choose BioShock 2.

Because BioShock 1 was co-developed by 2K Australia, as everyone knows, and Australia is entirely peopled with criminals, and criminals are used to having people not trust them, as you are not trusted by me, so I can clearly not choose BioShock 1.

Clearly the answer is Minerva’s Den + Burial At Sea part 2.
