The timed activation codes to join Resetera are only good for 10-15 minutes after they are sent

Looks like ResetEra is going to have to.......Re......set those timers. Maybe they will have to Re.......send them.

On the plus side, it'll be easy to know if Slayven banned you when your ban message is no longer than eight words and has at least one grammatical or spelling error.
This makes me wonder purely out of curosity, can/could NeoGAF.com mods put images in the ban message? Or use italics or bold like Bobby Roberts?

Bulleta doesn't have to answer just because she's in here as I truly direct all my NeoGAF.com moderation questions at you know who.

I don't remember. You probably could do bold and stuff, but not pictures. Who knows if they changed it.

They're going with an offbrand forum backend. Damn Cerium is footing the bill with the LLC, domains, and this license.

I expect them to disable PM's on GAF soon; looks like they maybe instutuded a once per 10 minute limute based on what I readin Hip-Hop GAF.
They used to do this for E3 and stuff too, and juniors had a different limit too.

I'm sure Lore's doing it to try and slow down the discord invites though rather than trying to ease up the servers.

Want to thank EviLore and neogaf staff for the gift of destroying fighting game gaf.

We've decided to not head on to Atelier Resetera.

My fighting game teaching thread, dead. I was willing to go to Reset and when I'm confident enough with my fighting game skills to revive my thread and teach people personally how to play fighting games in a lesson like program for free.

But then many of us realized that we are considered "toxic", "problematic". We are too real and frankly absolutely none of us have a filter, as is fighting game player tradition, and we'll be kicked out of that site instantly just for being ourselves. Now our community is scattered into the wind and I got try to e-stalk old friends so they'll join our private discord.

To make matters worse our discord, which we have had for TWO YEARS was swamped by hundreds of users we barely know over the weekend, ruining our environment and community, forcing us to desert our own fucking server.

Thanks for nothing.

(Image removed from quote.)


Wait they are not allowing your community in ?

They are but it's pretty clear from the staff involved, the track record in their discord, and the new Reset users from our (old) discord that we are not wanted. That's fair. There's definitely some fighting game people signing up Reset, but a really large of us aren't on board.

To be fair, FGC and esports players in general don't know what filters are even used for.

I love the shit said but it will rub people the wrong way.

You don’t know the half of it. Then again, things with the people in these forums have been a bit of a game of a fifth dimensional flavor. Hell, 3 of the supposed new Reseta moderators have been posting here stealthily. It’s almost too much, like, you can’t make any of this up.

I'm really surprised no mods/admins took the ban record with them from GAF before leaving. But I guess that could lead to legal troubles?

Honestly the discussion about GAF sort of tired me out to the point of indifference.
The irony isn't lost on me that this is literally a thread about GAF, but frankly I wasn't here to stress about another site in the first place so w/e

Trying to follow up on where people are on this shit seems like a hassle.

Nah, I could've, but I knew it wouldn't have been a good idea. It was just a spreadsheet-like page with who was banned, by whom, when, how long the ban was, and the ban message.

Now I want someone to infiltrate Evilore's inner circle, pull the database of that and leak it. Just for the fuckery of knowing which mods banned who.

It's going far worse for GAF than I ever expected;  anyone who isn't account suiciding is clogging the board up with asking for invites to othe boards.  There is almost zero discussion of anything happening.

Yeah, anyone who thought gaf would be the same is stupid.

I see this getting posted a lot on places but Lore didn't delete every PoliGAF thread like people are saying, it takes like two seconds to see all our shitposts back to 2012 (when the new format of putting that stuff in community came in) are still there, he locked the latest one then deleted like the last page full of discord talk so it dropped way down past all the other threads that are getting bumped back up now that OT-Community is open again. As petty as the dude is I don't think he actually wants to start wiping out stuff from the forum he doesn't have to.

Because she told Constanza his ban reason, IIRC. Or someone elses. And then that lead to like the first "schism" of people leaving in droves to go to like other offshoots.

(Un?)fortunately, those boards (Wasting Your Life) died on the vine.

The ban reason being hidden was something 'Lore wanted hidden no matter what. Why do you think he's going with anonymous mods now? It's not the "cult of personality." It's so people don't ask why mods that lock threads under modbot aren't the ones doing it under their name.

I don't know what that is. It was some blue page with white text that said all the stuff. Then there was a topic in the moderator forum that you were supposed to post who you banned, how long, and usually would supply a link to the bad posts and stuff.

IF you get into Resetera. From what is being said and leaked, at this point I would not be surprised if they made it invite only or paid email/credentials verified only registration. I dunno what’s gonna end up happening, but I am curious to see.
