Okay so....

Also, it's weird you get prickly about people using the word "cheeseburger" as a noun but throw around the word distinguished mentally-challenged as a pejorative.

[fistfulofmetal]

Someone in the Mario Odyssey review thread got a 7-day ban for accusing a reviewer of getting paid for his score. I don't really care about the ban itself, just noting they actually listed the length and reason on his post.

which forum are we talking about here cuz it could be either i guess?

[joeboy101]

Has 'Lore posted a single thing since the site reopened (other than the State of NeoGAF OP)?

I'd check myself, but, you know...

Not that I’ve seen. He’s clearly making decisions, but haven’t seen any replies. It’s been the dank mods making admin posts since.

Nope. Do people lurk on #ga still?

Does "gamergate" even (still) exist? Or is it more like an imaginary enemy akin to the "rootless cosmopolitans" during the Stalinist era? Of course there are still white supremacists / neo-nazis and misogynists, but gamergate in specific? Are there people who identify as members of a group?

depends on who you ask

Evilore: "gamergate is an obsolte rag-tag group of some 30-odd neckbeards living in their mom's basement."

also Evilore: "the character assassination of myself and the take down of NeoGAF was a massive internet hate campaign orchestrated by gamergate"

No way a forum these days is worth that much. Certainly not after all what happened now and parts of the userbase leaving. They could use the domain for pagerank and turn it into something else for gaming I guess, but few hundred thousand dollars tops.

Why didn't Evilore invest in himself and use his money as a one way ticket to higher education as a fall back plan or at best to further make neogaf better with his own coding prowress? You can literally teach yourself how to code on the internet for free rn and this dude instead galvanized around the world. I'm not saying traveling isn't good (because it is), but with the kind of money EviLore had most of us would have spent it far more productive ways. I hope he's invested his money into savings. He's gonna need it.

With that kind of money you can literally buy your way into an Ivy League.

Ad companies, corporates, gambling sites etc. Evilore's scandals mean nothing when it comes to business. GAF is still valuable (Google PR). I doubt he'll be able to negotiate a good price now but he will still get a decent amount of money.

GG exists in the form of KiA subreddit, which has 86k subs and heavy activity. It mostly focuses on fuckery in nerd hobbies (video games, movies, comics, etc), fake news, censorship and campus craziness. Decidedly anti-sjw.

[tummyfat]

Evilore made hundreds of thousands of dollars and used it for fuck all. He could have turned Neogaf into a business but instead he left it an outdated vb forum with malicious ads because it was easy money.

The site was going to die soon even without the shower escapades because mobile/adblock was killing it and his work ethic is awful and GAF Gold was never going to happen. He should have monetized years ago like SA.

Because he's a self-centered, narcissistic moron.

I've posted at length about how NeoGAF could have become a true empire, had he played his cards right and actually did some real work.

NeoGAF was a hobby forum until Google AdSense came along. That allowed him to profit greatly with ZERO effort. He rested on his laurels.

Lore was a chubby gamer NEET that stumbled onto success and developed a god complex. Expecting someone like that to plan for the future is a bit... optimistic. He couldn't even adequately plan the future of his one success in life.

Dude was making at least, bare minimum 100k per year. That's what he said. Mary Tyler/TXP would know the details better but let's give him some leeway and assume he made 200k per year. That is easily buy your way into school territory.

Thinking that an internet forum is ever going to be a "life long" meal ticket is itself distinguished mentally-challenged.

Even if he hadn't fucked up, it's an older technology, younger folks won't go for them compared to the newer options, or hell even newer better coded forums with more features.

He had the money from ad revenue to be secure - he spent like a drunken sailor and it shows and he's gonna be destitute and it's beautiful.  Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

Yeah but it's EviLore, a guy I cant imagine has ever worked in his life. His experience of living is getting monthly cheques for fuckall and that's happened all his life, what incentive did he ever have to not be a spoiled turd?

Well at the very least, it's not too late for Tyler. I'm sure he hasn't spent all of his money and invested. If he has, he can get a name change and then head on to a known school. What passion did he have before he bought gaf?
