Maybe the real NeoGAF was the friends we made along the way...

[Valhelm]

why try that "reset era" shit when this place already exists?

Because, well - I don't want those weirdos here either. Sorry

understood

Reset era will probably be an altright/neo-gamergate site in 6 months tops

[Let's Cyber]

I mean at this rate Tyler is gonna have to open up the registrations just out of sheer necessity.

Probably. I don't see how the site has a future either way.

Tons of trolls will flood in with open registration. This is just prolonging the death throes.

[Swollen Bowels]

without social and political discourse, in which sane and rational dialogue was given a safe space from the lunatic denizens of the alt right, there's no longer any draw to GAF. its appeal was the strict moderation that refused right wingers a platform. the reason it was so popular is precisely because of the mods not tolerating 4chan levels of idiocy.

[Lothar]

Yep seems like neogaf is now reaching out to gamergaters sad.

The only reason why the thin skinned fuck is putting himself through this humiliation is because he knows he can no longer get a job anywhere

[benjipwns]

So neither person is credible, or they both contradict each other without witnesses, great. Good luck Evilore.

Taking it to the courts is the only solution at this point. It won't go away dude.

I'm divorced, somewhat from my own faults and somewhat from hers. It happens.

I have a few kids out there. One I know for sure to be mine, but I ain't paying for any of them. That makes me a deadbeat father I guess.

I work a dead end job, making dead end money, which is a situation that will never improve due to my lack of education and the motivation to further it.

I'll never be internet famous (infamous?) like you. But thats probably for the better.

In the end I will die alone, unloved, and forgotten. Buried in a paupers grave with nobody to mourn my loss.

BUt you know what you slimey piece of shit? None of that matters, because at least I can say this: I NEVER SEXUALLY ASSAULTED A WOMAN AND BLAMED HER. Seriously, you fucking pathetic spec of a man, that alone makes you far worse than me. And here's why...

1: I will die forgotten, you will live on forever on the internet as the rapist who ran a gaming forum.

2: Same as number one. (I'm working back here, did your elf intelligence pick that up yet?)

3: You life was this forum, which will now forever be tainted by the RAPIST that runs it. It is your legacy.

4: My kids will never know me, and never know my sins. Any child unfortunate to have you as a father will eventually google their daddies name, and then have to ask you sexually assaulted women. Have fun with that.

5: Any woman that knows you will know your game. Good luck finding true love now, you don't deserve it.

6: If you aren't a raging booze hound yet, you will be soon. As your world crumbles around you, and everything you have worked so hard for vanishes, that bottle will just look better and better. You'll give in, it's only a matter of time.

All in all, you're a fuckstain upon the gaming community at large and quite frankly an amazingly ugly human being. Enjoy watching your empire burn, because lord knows the rest of us are.

P.S: With an apology like that, GAF isn't the place to post. If you want to play the victim in all of this and be held like a baby, go to 4chan. I hear they love people that victim blame and treat women as objects. You'll fit right in."

It's like the fireworks finale over at GAF, every person that's being waiting to account suicide doing it all at once.  There's so many that it's not even fun, it's just a big blur of bans.

I always knew that GAF would implode when it started going its current path. But I never thought it would be this beautiful.

Unwanted?  It's sexual harassment.  When you do that in life and it backfires, you fucking own up to it and apologize and try to make amends.  You don't brag about it.

[benjipwns]

To be honest I'm just glad it's back. The only issue I have is supporting Evilore financially by visiting as long the allegations haven't been cleared up. If it turns out to be true, I'm out or would want Evilore to give up the forum to someone else, if it turns out to be bogus then all is fine.
I don't get people who believe the allegations 100% without any proof. I know it's hard for women to come out when it comes to these issues, but just assuming someone is guilty because someone else said so isn't something reasonable people do.

The mass banning of threads is somewhat fishy though and I believe that at least some of the mods also left because they don't believe Evilore.

Closing OT for now is a good decision though. Over the years and especially since Trump has been elected and racism is on the rise people started to jump down each others throats as soon they didn't share the exact same position. I realise it's only natural for a progressive place to react to the radicalization outside that affects PoC and in general minorities inan equal radical manner, but it had gone too far at some points.

I just hope this place can strive with or without Evilore. I don't see why it has to be shut down completely even if the allegations are true if Evilore takes the proper steps.

Also can someone tell me what all those alternate forums are? First GeoNaf which doesn't exist anymore, now i read something about ERA. I'm on Waypoint and Gaf for now, if someone has a place where a lot of people are migrating because they don't want to spend time here can someone PM me to what places that are? I'd appreciate it.

I can understand people who just say fuck it and won't come back, but I'd advocate for staying calm and see how things turn out while we can still share the passion for our hobby.

[ZephyrFate]

the guy's verbiage may have been strong, but what Evilore did is most definitely sexual harassment if not molestation.

[pilonv1]

I feel like I missed the source of "she's bi", someone link me up

[benjipwns]

Believing in victims/accusations enough to investigate their claims makes sense. It's the reasonable thing to do. Harassing someone and trying to destroy their livelihood without any actual investigation taking place is just witch hunting mob mentality. IMO, the more miscreants who account suicide here, the better. We'll be a better community for it.

yup.

theyre likely all the special ones who made this place shit anyhow.

And the new GAF is a dumpster fire

[Kartik]

[Nola]

no way the forum continues long-term (or maybe even short-term) without turning into an alt-right haven

Heres the rub though, if he does open up registrations now to just embrace this shit, he might be just as likely to invite in the recently created army of left-wing trolls that want to get a few more 15 seconds of fame and lols for the new community(and some Borean's know they would have a bit of fun for a minute).

But that still might be his best bet, just blow the doors open and grab all you can until the place is destroyed. You certainly aren't going to be able to sell this butchered asset anymore.

[Averon]

To be honest, I am surprised by the number of people sticking by Tyler in that sticky. It seems that the amount of GAFers that hated how GAF was moderated pre-apocalypse was sizable.

Tyler might be able to skate by after all, especially if ResetERA becomes the insular dumpster fire it is looking to be.

This exactly. It's none of my business what goes on in others personal lives, I'm here to talk about games first and foremost and other forms of entertainment such as movies and sports. Like you, NeoGAF is my #1 source for gaming news and reviews and would like it to continue to be.

I feel like some of you guys are being overly aggressive over something that's not confirmed and that's the only thing i'm going to comment on this subject.

So glad gaf is back just in time for MARIO ODYSSEY!!!

I don't know what to believe, but I believe the forum is bigger then one person. Still think Evilore has a right to defend himself as does woman making the aligation to make their case. Genuinely hope it's not true what came out. I Wont leave but will be taking a quiet approach for the time being until more becomes clear.

Hell yea dude free amirox

[border]

Jontron argued against immigration on the basis that immigrants "dilute the gene pool", and aside from a week or two of snarky response videos, dude has even more subscribers than ever.

Same thing will happen with EL.

I'm kinda curious how many members are going to be lost in this current  purge.  There's no way to track the forum's user count is there?  I mean the front page says "194,882 members," but that includes all the banned accounts as well right?  There's no way to measure how many of those are capable of posting?

[Valhelm]

tyler's weasley statement is basically a declaration of solidarity with antifeminists, so he's going to attract those guys while still trying to maintain the kayfabe that Neogaf is a progressive gaming forum

I think I'm going to keep my account on ice for stage 2 of this shit, there's enough people doing the right thing currently.

Did he really throw his entire mod team under the bus

His ego is fucking G I G A N T I C.

(Image removed from quote.)

He has hated his mod team for years. It was open secret he hated Social Studies Warriors politics.

TBH, and hot-taking my ass off on this one, but possibly the most economically viable thing he could do is try and re-position himself as a woke red-piller and just embrace the dark side with a fucking fury for as long as he can. Or at a minimum fling the doors open and let the trolls free flow back in and create a populated nexus of message board chaos.

He really doesn't even need to go that far. Having back a "hot chix in gaming" thread and allowing consolewar to rise to 2k6 Next-Gen levels will suffice. The overwhelming majority of GAF never cared at all about either "side" on the hot issues like:

-Gloopergrape!!!!! vs Progressivism
-Trans bathroom rights
-Islamic Terror vs Mass Shootings, which is worse?!?!?!

and they will be glad to never read such nonsense again
