Is that resetti spaghetti thing gonna be run by the same mods as before?

If so, then it's weird to see people stanning for it since those same mods were silencing people for committing the heinous crime of shitting on a pedo

Where was their big fucking pushback then

The Recettear people just think Evilore was the sole problem and ditching him will fix everything. I doubt many can make the connection that the mods were fine covering up the Amir0x scandal, easier to just blame Evilore.

Recettear?

What challenges her views? What are the opposite? The criticisms were pretty obvious attempts to not actually engage her points. It's a lot of "high school essay", "she didn't even play those games", etc. What would a debate look like? "You don't know how many damsels there are!"

Like, the argument against isn't a good one. We all know this.

Like, if you can PM 10 solid arguments against Anita's arguments then maybe I'll listen but she gives you plenty and there's almost none against that aren't about just tearing her down.

You go into a thread about specific issues in the industry regarding women and you post something like, "Does she debate? Has she ever been challenged?" -- it's shit posting. Those threads even had mod edits in red text telling you not to do what he posted. He didn't read. He got banned.

-------

When was someone accused of being literally Hitler or a NAZI? I'm sure people were called out because they said some pretty dubious or offensive shit. However, I doubt many people will accept that they said those things because, well, stupid Social Studies Warriors and all.

Eh, Reddit, 4chan, and pretty much any other big or well known gaming forum is a hive of racism, misogyny, and gamergaters.

Heck, you can't even go to /v/ without being called the N or F word.

Go to Twitch and whenever a black person appears you see the black emote. You see the Arab emote when a brown person or anything resembling a bomb is shown.

But hey, those places don't count.

Discussion was being had. People who were articulating why her arguments weren't sound didn't get banned. You are not banned for disagreeing with someone. You get banned for dismissing arguments and putting down people in threads centered around that person's arguments.

You see it more black and white than I do.

Yeah. I'll echo this.

Mod team needs to clamp down on it or else the silent GamerGaters will slowly normalize their views here causing what made this community good to disappear.

gaf is dead, reset will get the biggest slice but will very quickly die after some drama between the 800 batshit insane mods they have now

other splinters like the waypoint people and shit will become incredibly small insular groups who run off anyone who would ever even consider becoming part of their tiny community because they're filthy outsiders tainted by unsafe world thought

[Tasty]

Brehs, reading gaf right now with every community thread demanding discord links I'm gonna double down.

I bet you an avatar that gaf is dead, they have pissed off most of their potential userbase, and they'll go to either discord, here, Reset, Slaent, whatever else. Considering the fact that Reset currently is communicating with each community discord staff and they have each of these discords listed on their own server, Reset has prime opportunity to take a nice slice of Neogaf's pie. It won't ever be as big as neogaf, but every gaf discord I've been on besides the FGHQ discord says they're moving to Reset.

File me under #TeamReset if we're taking bets on who wins this. I don't think Gaf will have the userbase to sustain the threads it once did and a large part of its appeal is half, if not completely dead.

(Image removed from quote.)

Uh firmly on #TeamBore here.

Mr. Resetti Era or whatever sounds fucking terrible, literally the worst of GAF this past year with heavy-handed moderation and likely less than 100 active members a month from now. Wasting Your Life was far less of a terrible idea and that's saying something.

But yeah, GAF as we know it is definitely dead. Evilore ball-slurpers will stay by but I can't imagine it being the nexus of anything anymore (if it ever was in the first place.) Devs and journos will complete their move to Reddit and all you'll have is Gamefaqs with a slightly better theme and a far less active userbase.

I think Reset Era will have its own set of challenges in dealing with the hordes of GG'ers and alt-righters looking to carpet bomb the place, and a staff not experienced with moderating a large population.  If they open up the floodgates a ton of trolls will arrive, but if they lock down the place people will get bored due to lack of activity.

25% of NeoGAF could quit tomorrow and they'd still have like 150K users, and a backlog of applications they can approve if they want to boost activity.

I have been reading and watching some youtube videos regarding the recent development regarding NeoGAF.

To be quite honest, it just feels wrong.

I am talking about people trying to take advantage of this weak moment of this forum trying to promote their own forums (whether it is existing forum, not entirely new forum just made over the weekend). Sure, I can see that it could be a good business to try to get some of the members from GAF but it does show that these people who criticize GAF is really just kicking it while it is down and more over, trying to benefit from it.

I mean, even people here do it/did it, like the mods making new forums to replace this one.

I think there's an anti gaf. I went there once. A cesspool of banned people from GAF. There's a reason people were banned let's just say that.

80% of the hate I've seen on Twitter since Saturday about GAF is from NeverGAFers and Xbox Fanboys like Jez, Tim Dog and BGST.

Man, y'all with the "he fostered this toxic culture" need to reflect hard. The people who jumped ship weren't asking you anything any decent person wouldn't do: listen, have respect, and try not to be indecent. They asked that you don't disregard women's views in video games, politics, or any other part of society. They asked you don't upset when LGBT people asked you to use their preferred pronouns. They asked you to not shit on minorities brutalized or murdered by police officers because they may have smoked weed in college. They asked you to be reasonable and have empathy for everyone. They asked you to not listen to hate and / or spread it. They asked you to care a little bit about more than just yourselves. A lot of y'all couldn't do that. You hated being decent because you felt entitled to your status. You didn't want to be challenged or be told you were doing things wrong or bad.

Y'all didn't care. They weren't toxic, y'all were. But even now you won't care. Why would you? You never cared to begin with.
