Everyone is going to get their potshots in, and the "mods" will just nuke the account. All the shitposters will go away and GAF will become a forum version of Digg for me to F5 at work.

Thank you for the statement Tyler. I agree with you and what mod-bot says. The site does indeed need a restructure and rules need to be put in place with exactly what you and Mod-bot outlined. Many users take things way to seriously and forget that we are all here to celebrate videogames. Best of luck and I look forward to seeing these changes in the future.

Chin up dude.

Need any mods? I can help if needed.

Cheers.

As a journalist, i know very well how stories can be twisted and things manipulated to be something.

At the end of the day, most of us don´t know you guys personally, and have no idea what´s going on with the personal lives of everyone.

Best to just stick to gaming and let real life be handed in real life.

Quote from: Mammoth Jones;252751627

The problem wasn't the political threads.

It was the sheer amount of them. Constantly.

Have ONE politics thread. Have ONE social discussion thread. People want to have a discussion in OT they should be able to. As long as they're following the rules of the site it shouldn't be an issue.

But don't pin this situation on OT. Let's be frank for a moment: GAF is a heavy left leaning forum that has decried sexism, sexual assaults and such have behavior. So how do we as a community reconcile that with reading about such allegations? You're 100% correct that your statement took too long and things spiraled out of control but that's on you. Don't punish OT and all the great discussions we've had there because of it...

I agree we don't need 372728 anti-Trump threads an hour.

I agree the way in which folks disagreed got downright nasty.

But that's not why mods quit. I think one thread for politics and another for social issues is fair. One place.

I agree with the moderators being anon. Good call.

What a fucking idiot.

Your personal business is your personal business, and I'm happy to focus on gaming again and leave your personal life out of the spotlight. However, if you don't plan on making a strong, concerted effort to admit to and quash the left-leaning group think that absolutely ruined Gaf, then I'll be happy to give up my account and move on.
No more hurt feelings and agenda pushing. No politics in OT is fine, but if there is a legitimate gaming related discussion we should absolutely be free to espouse conservative views and opinions without fear of the banhammer. Your move.

The modbot post makes a lot of sense.

I was hoping that by not locking this thread that any grievences or shitposting would have been provided as direct responses. Unfortunately it seems as though that won't happen and people are already mucking up the reast of the forum.

Quote from: Cheebo

Evilore needs to come out and admit he committed sexual harrasment. Full stop. What he did was assyalt and his comments trashing and demaining the woman to Waypoint sounded like Weinstien or Trump.

This forum can't move forward with an owner unwilling to attone for sexual assualt and trashing victims to the press.

There needs to be a change up top. The forum will not survive with a CEO acussed my multiple women of assault.

It's 2017. That doesn't work anymore.

Remember this women is just the LATEST. There have been multiple.

He claims there is evidence she is so liar but never shares Proof.

There were multiple witnesses a few years back when he grabbed a woman's ass against her will.

These are the type of people GAF used to stand against. GAF can't be ran be one of them.

I think the site should be handed off to someone less of a sleaze and then we can then start over. Until then this forum will continue to flatline.

NeoGAF is a nexus of hardcore gamers, enthusiast press, and video game industry developers and publishers. This is a neutral ground where facts and evidence, presented within the confines of civil, inclusive discourse, prevail through careful moderation. Enjoy reading existing discussions as a guest, or sign up for a free account and be patient through the waiting period.

Evilore just shot himself in the foot #1

I don't know how much the rest of you know about hookup culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in pickup artists communities where you can become successful by being a sexist pervert. If you sexually assault someone the shower, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the neogaf community, after hearing about this, is not going to want to post on a forum run by a creepy asshole, nor will they browse without adblock enabled. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Evilore has alienated an entire community with this move.

Evilore, publicly apologize and retire bitch or you can kiss your community goodbye.

as is, anyone with the slightest taste for condemnation is flaming out in the first 24 hours. 15,000 bans later, he has a rump core of pacified tit licking rubes who will barely need moderation.
