How can the new forum acknowledge that the previous mods were trigger happy yet think it’s a good idea to keep old bans in place?

A sizzling hot take, but naaa.  Evilore will continue to get some passive income from the gamefaqs tier posters who are too dumb to notice the site has lost all relevance, but no one related to the industry will be showing their face there ever again.

I think NeoGAF as we knew it is over. No developer in their right mind would go there now. Same for resetERA, obviously.

NeoGAF was an incredible fluke in the first place, and EL (and his mods) didn't understand what made it attractive. Lightning doesn't strike twice.

I get the impression that he thinks this is just a phase and people will run right back to the forum. He basically did fuck all at this point aside from tantrum-deleting OT.

Hillary Clinton collapsed and was carried off dead on 9/11 and the NeoGAF bubble still voted for her.

Mods would have access to individual users, not a total database export I think. Giving access to anyone outside of the super administrator account would be a big security flaw.

Not that anyone's looking for confirmation from me on this, but this is right. I mean, I haven't been in contact with any other forum projects about a theoretical userbase migration, but I'm just saying if I had dreams of starting "Steve Youngblood presents Neoneogaf.com" and pitch that everything would transfer over, three things would immediately jump out at me.

1.) This is a really dumb idea and nobody would be interested.
2.) The chances of being litigated would be somewhere close to 100%
3.) Most importantly, I couldn't pull this off even if I was dumb enough to try. None of the volunteer staff (at least to my knowledge) had direct database access.

Yeah, the database thing always seemed unrealistic to me.

you can scrape all the public data (posts, threads etc) if you were really a jerk, but would have to rely on faith that people wouldn't claim each other's accounts (assuming you dont just attribute all posts to 'historic poster A')

I was speaking to a few future members of resetera last night. Absolutely no self awareness. They truly believe that because there is no off topic forum to discuss politics, the gaming forum will be over run by GamerGaters and the alt right. They were telling a grown man he's part of the problem/the enemy because he doesn't yell at his family to not be racists(his gf is white and maybe bi). If you don't convert your Trump loving parents you're the problem. Paranoid as fuck. Enjoy resetera

[Daffy Duck]

Resetera will certainly be an interesting experiment that's for sure.

I saw them yesterday already discussing how they will pretty much shout down any mention of gender in posts and it should all be neutral.

Prime example of BCT members using the "not arguing in good faith" tool they learned a few months back.

IMO BCT actually dialed it back a bit after Bish left. There was still some dumb shit when someone had the racist audacity to suggest that Colin Kaepernick kneeling was not equivalent to the march on Birmingham or some other cac-ass cac position. But they didn’t pile on nearly as much.

I’m still shocked that Commedieu was an agent. I basically put him right next to Slayven and Angelus Errare as top-tier BCT members to avoid discussion with about anything other than video games or comics. That’s why his statement confused me, I didn’t get who he was talking about.

Honestly, I thought all of PT got better after Bish left. It still had massive problems, but it was moderated somewhat less ideologically.

Edit: also saw lots of posts asking about why Bish left, didn’t he have some kind of bet about leaving as a mod if Hillary didn’t win?

You're not missing anything. I've eaten Taco Bell in three European countries and the menus are so severely gimped and overpriced it's hardly even worth the effort. You ask for a Steak Gourdita Supreme and they give you the same blank look a GAFfer gives you if you ask them how to have sex with an actual real life woman.

Your best bet is to buy one of the import Taco Bell kits they sell on Amazon. Stupid amount of effort, but at least it tastes somewhat similar to Best Taco Bell.

If suggestions from GAFfers in the past are anything to go by, I'd bet people in Mental Health GAF have probably become worse. 

There was this dude from Colorado who posted a few times that they were so poor that they didn’t eat everyday. The guy was in his late 20’s and too disabled to work and still lived at home. His mother couldnt work and his father was a huge Trump supporter and bigot and often threatened to leave. The last topic I read from him was that his dad finally left and took their one nearly broken down car they had and split.

I hope they made it out ok but it also seemed like he was trying to get handouts from those that fell for it. He an active XBL and Steam account, so lol

Man, I’m so glad that women and minorities are so much more capable than the dregs left at GAF believe them to be. Must be so frustrating when your most vocal allies are a band of intolerable arseholes that don’t think you could get out of bed without them.

ResetERA will continue to inflict the small but numerous wounds to left wing discourse that GAF started. It’ll be VOAT for yoghurt-weavers and both groups will feed off the mere existence of the other. I’m so glad I bowed out of internet chatter.
