he got into a shower naked with someone who didn't want him to be there

you fucking distinguished mentally-challenged fellow
But he didn't know she didn't want him there. They were on a road trip, she was staying in a hotel with him and they both just got back from a night of binge drinking. She was in an open relationship (apparently only with girls though). The elf thought he had it in the bag, he didn't and got out. So??

None of those things give him the right to act that way.

Have you been in a relationship before? These are kind of accepted normal human courtesies we're supposed to offer to others. You don't get to do stupid shit and get away with it just because you "didn't know."


Have you? I used to be like some of you until I realized women would call you a fucking pussy behind your back if you're not assertive enough. Now, what Evilore did was pathetic and too forward but even kissing a woman makes you a sexual predator now with SJ Ws. It basically boils down to this: Did it work? How romantic! It didn't? SEXUAL PREDATOR! RAPIST! SCUM!

Evilore is a special fellow who doesn't understand women there's no doubt about that, but does it deserve that kind of response? Fuck no. Like I said the other incident he described about grabbing a woman's ass is far, FAR worse than this one.

Unless you are completely emotionally distinguished mentally-challenged and socially oblivious(and on this I often am with woman that show interest, which says something), most woman do in fact lead things in courting, just not overtly. Flirtations, insinuations, signaling, or the ones on the shy side with gossiping with friends that know will blab. You can be both assertive and confident in the flow and still just ride the waves of what a woman is comfortable with, using well-timed dialogue to feel out what they are open to escalating with emotionally or physically.

Yes, occasionally you might press further than a signal was evident, but its pretty fucking easy to not end up in a situation where you are following some drunk girl that just threw up, into the shower you weren't signaled into. Even if she is a bit crazy and clearly feeling out cheating on her man to satisfy her possible wannabe Zuckerberg elf fetish.

“Hey let’s go to Mardi Gras together and share a room” would mean  “go time” for most men.

Frankly, I wouldn’t go on a road trip alone with a woman unless I knew I was getting laid out of it unless they were family or I knew them for like 10+ years.

I’m not exactly excusing what he did as “fine”. It wasn’t fine, but it also wasn’t particularly outside of the ordinary for normal boy-girl interactions, especially among hard partiers.

Or, more reasonably, "she invited me to Mardi Gras, probably is open to wanting some evilore dick if I play my cards right, but lets see how the night plays out before I count my chickens and assume I am guaranteed drunk throw-up shower sex at my convenience."

At least that is how I would take it and I think most reasonable people.

And listen, I am not one of the people trying to crucify evilore here. A lot of this story is patchy, he said-she said from two sketchy narrators, and lacks enough context to make a definitive conclusion, but at the same time, drunk throw-up shower invasion is a pretty difficult barrier to get past and rationalize, even in the face of their continued friendship. If pushed I see it more as Evilore stepping over a clear line, one non-emotional idiots wouldn't step over, but not one so big they weren't able to continue escalating the relationship. One that has blown up because evilore is an emotional midget with an inflated ego and can't do the obvious thing and admit wrong-doing and move on.

I.... agree with this.

Leaving the bathroom door deliberately ajar while you shower in the hotel room of a man you have been drinking with all night might have perhaps given some mixed signals though.

She was vomiting, thought.

but you gotta understand neckbeard desperation. you can’t afford to NOT shoot that trey when you finally get off the bench amirite


I'm of the mind most reasonable people can pick up on social cues, but when the thirst is real af and you have the social skills of a rock then a passing glance is an invitation to fuck and things go sideways.

Much like the election, there will be no reflection done.
reflection was done, the problem was found to be other people

this allegory this truly makes me feel like i am among my people

saying “bernie would have won, the general is not the primary” or any variant thereof on gaf post-election got me dogpiled by hillary stans even in the Chapo OT
Bernie wouldn't have won. Trump would've buried him even more so than he did Clinton. New York would've been red.  :lol

And all the communists would've been rounded up before the vote.  :usacry

NY seems to really hate Donald Trump guts, thought.
Rudy Giuliani and some other crooks would've fixed it for him.

Clinton might've thrown her hat into the ring for Trump as well. She would've hated Bernies guts and sabotaged him just as she did in the primaries.
Bernie would've ran against Trump, the RNC and the DNC and every other communist fearing American. Trump would've been hailed a hero who stopped the communist revolution of 'Murica.

Giuliani seems to haven been dropped from the face of the earth since a while ago.

Why I want to "protect" Bish is because I don't really think that is a fair assessment of how he moderated.

If the word of his coworkers counted so much before I said anything, it should count the same. Bish detailed everything he did to his coworkers. GAF's actual moderation policy was to never discuss bans on the forums (tbf the times mods did try to explain it got a bit overwhelming)

I do admit Bish had a cult following that he seemed to pandered to at times. But him unlocking threads was more about "this thread was good until some people stepped out of pocket."

Just putting into perspective for you.. Don't know which coworkers you talked to tho

I'll second this. There were differences between the way that bish moderated and the way that the rest of us moderated; in particular he had more latitude than we did, didn't really participate much in formulating consensus (he more or less followed his own path), and was more given to spectacle (hence people believing that he was responsible for more many more bans than he actually was). But this was intentional; when I became a moderator I was explicitly told that I shouldn't try to moderate in the same way that bish did. I don't know if you got the same advisory, since you were a mod for a very long time before I was.

Too rich was right earlier when he noted that a change started happening around 2012. But it had nothing to do with Romney and Obama or bish suddenly having an axe to grind and going rogue. For a long time before that, there were not enough moderators covering OT. It was the addition of new moderators (who are more proactive about reading threads they know are going to be stressful, since they haven't gotten burned out yet) like myself or other non-Australians (Australians are softies, apparently), junior batches were often timed with new moderators, and places that had been getting no moderation for a long time were being moderated.

I guess we will never know exactly who it was (my bets on Evilore) but when the news broke, threads where being deleted on the subject left right and centre, I saw it with my own eyes. Anyone who spoke about Amir0x was either banned, post deleted or outright purged from the forum entirely. "Mod's" is a blanket term I suppose, but with tools like modbot, you honestly shouldn't be surprised.

I was not a moderator at the time, but I would suspect that Evilore was the one driving policy there. I at least know that most everyone I've talked to about it would have favored having a topic in which to dump on him, and certainly no one thought denying that he knows his name... when he clearly did... was a particularly bright idea.

And I agree that people probably should have left (and I know at least one mod who was unaware of how the Amir0x news was handled and said that they would have then had they known) , but it was always a collective action problem with the moderation team.

He was just in it for a bit of cash and exposure for his books. Trump offered him some top level positions like Rex's job or AG and he was like: "Dude... I'm old af, rich and retired I'm not going to fly halfway around the world"

She was asking for it defense in 3...2...1...

No, there is clearly a case of horrifically poor sexual etiquette on Evilore's part - knowing the little about him that I know doesn't surprise me he would misidentify this as advances.

But, showering naked in front of people is clearly naive. Puke doesn't repel sexual predators.

And I agree that people probably should have left (and I know at least one mod who was unaware of how the Amir0x news was handled and said that they would have then had they known) , but it was always a collective action problem with the moderation team.

"We were not like Bish but some bans were from us and Bish was a cover".

"People should have left after  the Amirox stunt but  :trumps "

Das ist korrekt. Vee ver only followink our owders!

GAF update: he's deleted the link to the staff page, and the tab links at the top to the off-topic and off-topic community section

But the ads are working

Be inclusive in your language, beliefs, and expectations. For this forum to become a massive multinational destination, no human being can feel unwelcome in its environment. Respect their culture, respect their gender, and respect the identity of every member at all times. Nobody should ever feel defensive of their humanity. This kind of hostility cannot be tolerated here. This kind of standard is non-negotiable and should be upheld by every member.

What the fuck does this even mean? God it's up there with "lived experience" as some of the most mealy mouthed bullshit I have ever heard of. No one should ever feel defensive of their own humanity? Why would you? Why is what someone says an attack on your feeling of humanity?

Sounds like a more on the nose attempt at the sort of gobbledygook nonsense GAF used to ban users that didn't align with their feels.  Your loosely shared opinion on this one specific issues that some alt-righters also loosely share implies to me you are likely a full blown alt-right cretin in hiding that must be moderated away while allowing those I perceive to be your target victims dog-pile and harass you without consequence.

I wonder if that will get extended to conservatives. Because fuck anything else , OT is full of people calling them non-humans, calling white guys the fucking devil, wishing for horrible things to happen to anyone to the right of Che Guevara seems to be the norm. I mean you could have a 10 volume set of books  called "Conservatives are Monsters" filled with nothing but quotes from Lime.

And no I don't wonder. I know for a fact that conservatives will still be treated like actual fucking Nazis.

Most of it is in the Waypoint article. Tyler went full "girl is crazy" as his defense.

He said GAF would be back up by tonight. I am not sure if he understand that requires work or not.

And the new gaf forum is already devouring each other over purity wars

I seriously don't see how he thinks going back online now is the right way to go. Especially without a mod team it seems. Shit will be non-stop posts about this incident and him banning everyone.

Leaving the bathroom door deliberately ajar while you shower in the hotel room of a man you have been drinking with all night might have perhaps given some mixed signals though.
Not if you're Zephyr. He would have waited and gotten a written consent form signed.
No, my tight ass is good enough to get sex sober. Maybe you should get gud, hard charger.

//so can anyone catch me up to speed? @BenjiPWNS from this morning/today? Seems like there's a lot of juice.

Tyler is bringign NeoGAF back without an OT? When does RESETERA launch? I see opencritic is up, is there going to be more? Please elucidate me on the current status of GAF diaspora.

thanks

Seems so and it the smartest decision his made since this has kicked off.

His probably betting most users who don't care about his behavior or the political arguments and will come back to gaf at least to see how it feels now all the mods are removed, fired or left / Reset ERA or whatever it's calling itself will be going through teething problems and shaky alliances. Vs a forum that people already posted on and have multiple posts on.

It's going to be hilarious in anycase.

The moderators at neogaf were paid. In e-cred. It spends about as well as exposure or experience.

I can understand being mortified at having worked for Thug1 for zero dollars, but I'd imagine at least one of the recently deposed cool kids would have the sack to be honest.
