I don't think you can even sign-up right now.. all I see is log in... nothing else.

I don't even really want an account, but then everyone else is getting one.. and I feel like the last one picked for kickball.  (I was never last, that was the kid who walked funny and picked his nose)

Looks like I missed the free registration fuck-up window. Do they want me to beg?  :fbm

You can still register, can't you?

Might have to wait for someone to manually confirm you.

I am surprised how peaceful the launch have been.

With all the drama I expected ResetERA would be flooded with trolls but I guess not.

To be fair alot of the people who left were communities, not just the knight templars on a mission.

Only a few made the transition; the admin team and idea people are all new.

Some of the mods returned and a few regular posters became mods.

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.)

I'm not backing down on this bet. #teamreset is winning already

so far it does feel like that.  i think its mostly because theyre swiping neogaf's monikers and applying it with "ERA" instead of just making their own identity

In EL's statement his first paragraph ends in..
Quote
there's plenty of evidence and witnesses to corroborate that. It'll be a process.

So, I am guessing their is plans to combat the story of the assualt right?
Ok, Ok, I know the downfall of GAF goes muuuuuch deeper then the straw that broke GAFs back...

But, if the other woman shows this story to be false, if evidence arises that proves this all to be a lie...then what?

He has basically lost his income, his lively hood..
Does he have any legal procedures he can use? Against the woman? Against the new forum? Against media sites and such?


No matter what we do know, that he's pretty much a big twat and the site was ripe for a downfall due to it being so toxic....
What happens and what are the reactions if we witness a man seriously crushed by "False accusations" in the era of #MeToo ?


I think aside from watching the outcomes of the new forum and the old forum over the next few weeks we also have another spectacle to keep us on the edge of our seats.

EviLore can stop the bleeding a bit by activating a bunch of new accounts (which it looks like he already has)

We'll probably stay in this weird gray area where Rectalera has more active members and new threads but GAF is still getting more views.

Well everyone is still eying the drama on gaf. But when all the champion posters are on Resetera and it's nothing but goober nerds scrambling to fill the gap on gaf, I think people might switch where they lurk. Maybe...

I am puzzled at EviLores strategy here.

His only play was to say "OK, we are back to the old gaf. Every banned member is getting a second chance, lets be positive and try to recreate what was lost in recent years"

Instead he wants nothing of the old GAF back, doesn't want the hyper woke, or any politics at all. But with all the people that made up the old GAF gone, along with the people who like the newer more woke GAF, what is left?

methinks the enthusiasm could die down on Resetera by the end of next week.

but the biggest hurdle will be the first controversial ban/locked thread.  might see a reverse exodus of sorts

ResetEra's forum is too stylish. Not, here's a bunch of pictures and whatnot like Wasting Your Life or that Slant crap. It's web 2.0 simple and I just like the super basic format of the bore and GAF.

I honestly hate forums where the threaded posts blend together more than they seem boxed apart.

There will be no split. ResetEra is the new GAF. Even Nirolak is posting in the gaming side.
