I feel bad for any buffet owners who have to serve Besada in this stressful time in his life

I just realized, kotaku can't post their article until Tyler posts a statement.

[sinxtanx]

ok so now that GAF seems to be down for the forseeable future (at least all of today) this place will very much do

live ammo discussions was missing from my life

Out, scum!

If you can't love The Bore at it's worst, you don't deserve us at our best 

see this is the kind of shit GAF was missing
you've convinced me to stay
I'll be your resident EZA shill for the duration

[VomKriege]

Apparently there's a GAF Discord channel that has hundreds of members, which is currently in the process of dividing everyone by Junior/Member status

You can get the poster out of GAF but you can't take GAF out of the poster etc...

Obviously, I don't want to defend EviLore without any facts, but does no one care that his accuser claimed to be sexually harassed 4 times walking two blocks on the day that she made her post?

Watching GAF curl up and die is something to see, for sure, and EviLore has done shitty stuff in the past, no doubt, but at the root of this incident lay a ton of unanswered questions.

No one answered seriously, so here goes. It's not different than any other similar case. Is it real ? We don't know though Evilore past antics certainly don't do him any favors. We simply happened to participate in disseminating this allegation that she was perfectly entitled to do. Not her fault that instead of doing the expected thing of issuing a first statement ("Some allegations have been made against me, I deny yadda yadda" ... "took contact with this person" ... "matter is now legal" ... "please do not discuss an ongoing case / tread carefully" or whatever) that would enable this story to advance to its next level (hearing different sides and trying to make an informed opinion, see if this escalates or stops there... After all that woman wasn't too hot of having this made really public), Lore instead had a Napoleonic complex meltdown. The Statement probably wouldn't have put on lid on the outrage but there's a reason why it's customary even if non committal legalese.

The problem at this point is not really a close examination of the allegation but that Evilore is not even able to formulate a cogent response and a kernel of his side of the story out all while some massive red flags are raised (I mean it's hard to imagine there's a reason why his staff would be leaving en masse without even putting an explanation or a customary good word for him).

I think my biggest surprise (and disappointment) was that in the end Rinsfury might actually NOT be an elaborate long con troll.

[Nabbis]

I just hope that some of the new Gaffers won't shit up this forum with their excessive crap. Guys, have some self awareness to understand that despite constantly shitting on Trump and getting giddy with ham fisting social issues into everything, you guys essentially lived under creepy papa smurf at the same time without a single complaint.

[seagrams hotsauce]

also lmao @ yall "woah he's actually a dirtbag" gaf-import goofballs. Cmon now

[Let's Cyber]

(Image removed from quote.)

lol this is real. I confirmed with Google cache.

Yes? EviLore has always been shitty.

I can understand the new generation of GAFers not knowing any better (especially since Lore was mostly absent anyway) but man, this implosion really should have happened after the his bullshit statement on amir0x.

Remember that dude who put together the dossier on NeoGAF and all the mods?

oh there were complaints about evilore's (and amir0x's) behavior:

"why are you posting this?"
"nice account suicide"
"warning: this comes from an evil site, probably bullshit"
"please don't post this shit here, we just want to talk about _____"

etc.

let him have this one. on the course hes on he'll probably be outta here as soon as gaf is.

[VomKriege]

Also moderation on GAF has been terrible for years and it became readily apparent when mods fancied themselves rock stars (or truth cowboyz) like Amirox or bish, not unlike the behavior of Evilore (though he was less omnipresent than them). And I get it, even I thought Amirox could be entertaining at one point, it's a good show.

I know, I was a shitty mod enjoying epeen at one point somewhere. If it's any excuse, at least I was still somewhat young and dumber.

Remember that time a Nintendo fan from Australia hacked GAF and tried to purge it of its anti-nintendo bias?

Fuck that, fat fuck wouldnt stand against racism, now he wants to be heard about Neogaf.

Lol I dislike gaf af much as anyone but shit this fat bastard wouldnt even call out a racist when he saw one.

So FUCK BOOGIE

[etiolate]

There was no racism for him stand against.

He was being honest to dishonest people. GTFO

[VomKriege]

Stolen from NZfarms...

[MMaRsu]

There was no racism for him stand against.

What? Even when Pewdiepie said N***** a bunch on stream and that fat bastard was like

Uhh you know maybe we should meet in the middle blabla.

I never saw him speak out against that sort of racism, or take any kind of stand.

Boogie is.one of the fakest fucks on the web.

[etiolate]

Everyone who enjoys hip hop says nicca and not even when they're singing along.

If you want the word to vanish then stop using it.

I dont want the word to vanish. But if a blatant racist asshole is using that shit, then I have no qualms about speaking out about it.

So now you are defending racists as well as that cunt Boogie?

Jesus christ etiolate 

[etiolate]

You don't even believe that statement about yourself.

PDP isn't racist. Boogie isn't racist. He doesn't need to stand against white supremacy. I imagine that if I looked into it, he admonished PDP for doing it but didn't call him a racist because he's not a fucktard.

Let me explain this: People mistype my name because they can't pronounce my alias for my alias is an an actual English word of French origin that has fallen out of usage. This isn't a made up word. It's real. It means to bleach. To make pale. It's real. You don't know it, so you fuck it up and rearrange it to words you do know. That's what happens to words you make vanish.

Apparently there's a GAF Discord channel that has hundreds of members, which is currently in the process of dividing everyone by Junior/Member status

So I'm in their secret room for logistics of bringing the spinoff site online. Here's some domain names they're considering:

pxnpc
pixorum
vidgm
supervgf (super video game forum)
lefttrigger (suggested with zero irony - "gamepads have left triggers")

Blatant racist asshole, PDP? Well, if you make up facts in correlation of a few questionable conducts and one single use of a derogatory term not even directed to a black person, then yes, I guess he's the chairman of Stormfront and runs the KKK. Do people even know what racism means anymore?

Who has a link to this beUtiful Neogaf discord channel

[VomKriege]

Also since it's memory lane time, another recent moment was the controversy with that fired PR person from Nintendo. GAF moderation, IIRC, flat out clamped down on any discussion in light of the new elements uncovered that she was in fact having a second undisclosed job as an escort. I understand there was some unease with who & how did the information surface, concerns that the discussion could become unsavory... But to the point of committing to an obviously partial and untrue narrative ? Shit was weird.

One single use? He has said N***** multiple times on stream. He likes to joke about the jews too.

That falls on eXXy/Klepek

He sported the white knight gear on that so hard that Nintendo had to release a statement that she was let go for Moonlighting. Once that info got out, the internet figured out that that the moonlighting was hooking. If Klepeck hadn't pushed a non-story so hard for virtue signal points that private life doesn't get out.

Honestly I don’t really care... however gaf’s weird policy re information control just made it blow up way more than it needed to.... never understood why that approach was put in place, seemed like a policy from an era that didn’t have social media 24/7. And of course it leads to stuff like... uh..

so how do i get into this Discord group thing?

or do we have one?! *GASP*

It's the belief that gaf was the only place that mattered. If they censored it then no one would ever find out. I think the mods actually believed that which is why they initially tried the same ban/lock/erase method with the allegations against Tyler. Previously the method had worked with his butt grabbing and getting scammed in Istanbul. They didn't realise that people still discussed Tyler's indiscretions (and other banned topics), just not on gaf, not that people didn't know about them and their censorship was successful in erasing history

Just aware of one, except the other one where he was about to say "nibba"

Anyways this is reaching in my honest opinion. If people started a trend to make a new N-word, like idk, "didi", would it be okay to say it because it's not the word? What matters is context and meaning first and foremost. But yeah his humor has been over the top, but he gave an explanation. He stopped going for that humor because he thought all that white supremacy was a load of bs, then the charlottesville incident happened and he made a statement. This doesn't turn him into a moral apex  or anything, just a regular guy with a big audience and lots of money.

[howDidIGetHere?]

Hey all,

I was nick_b on GAF. Only recently started posting more. I was only there for videogame talk and had been increasingly put off by the amount of politics on gaming side. People getting banned left and right for disagreeing with someone. Fuck that shit. Didn't even know about this site until the fallout. Anyway, y'all seem like a fabulous buncha bitches so I think I'll stick around here. Probably mostly on gaming side but I might venture out from time to time. Nice to meet you.

Fear is what kept people from stepping "out of line" on gaf and once that fear was gone, posters were free to speak their minds. The last 3 hours of the site before it was taken down were a thing of beauty. Much like Bane bringing freedom to the people of Gotham, polyh3dron has liberated the people of Gaf: at a terrible cost.

[Dennis]

All these mods should have bailed out earlier when iapetus was treated like a junior shitposter, humiliated and demodded for saying he doesn't like violence.

They should have bailed when Besada systematically started to give unjustified bans to popular gaffers because he was jealous of them and wanted a forum where he could be fawned over by sycophantic newer members.

There was a systematic purge, Besada was caught admitting it, but hey, it is not like the other moderators had to give a fuck about it, right?

[SmokyDave]

GAF still dead then? I reckon Evilore should just cut and run. Start a new life in Luxembourg under a pseudonym.

I don’t know if pewdiepie is a racist or not, but I’m certain he’s a fucking idiot. He’s definitely not worth travelling the old ‘racism with malice vs racial insensitivity through ignorance’ path for.
