First ban I’ve seen on Rosetta Stone

What did he do?

Might just be they don’t want conspiracy posts, which I think is pretty lame.

Isn't there a public ban log? I thought they were going to explain mod actions and be somewhat transparent.

First ban I’ve seen on Rosetta Stone

Not even permanent 24h. For being a new gaf they are doing a bad job with such leniency and mercy.

[Kartik]

Look, what happened to GAF was unprecedented. It was set on fire and came crashing down in a day. Nobody could have seen this coming. He was planning to upgrade the forum, monetize with GAF gold so he was acting smug and banning everyone who slighted him. His entire mod team left, people calling him a piece of shit left and right, account suicides, new successful alternate forum, mass exodus etc. If anyone Googles his name it will show the sexual harassment allegation. We saw a guy get completely annihilated and he deserves every bit of it.

I bet he wants a fucking break from all this but he can't do that either because people are posting shit and there's no one to ban them. Dude must be shocked and paralysed right now. The karmic justice inflicted on this arrogant man was merciless.

[Himu]

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 He could have turned Neogaf into a business but instead he left it an outdated vb forum with malicious ads because it was easy money.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.

I seriously don't get it!

His ad block cashcow was running dry. He could have made Gaf Gold a real thing and members would have gladly forked it over because they had that kind of loyalty. It would have made gaf and even more exclusive place for them and Tyler could have taken it to the bank. Charge 10 dollars to change an avatar and just say,"sorry guys but servers costs are expensive and in order to maintain such a big forum with so many active users we need to charge money for this" which isn't really that much of a lie given they no longer allowed animated avatars for the same reason.

It's somewhat amazing that evilore's strategy is to remain quiet (post-"STATEMENT"), with mods that are invisible and do not address any concerns raised by even the few loyalists.

You actually have to really care about doing the right thing to do the right thing. If its convenient enough to do the wrong thing then many people will simply do the wrong thing. They'll look at it in a self-interested risk/rewarrd sort of way. Make a stink about covering up amirox or keep my account? If I make a stink, I gain nothing. If I just shutup then I don't lose anything. Eh apathy to the rescue.

The other part of this is having no self-respect, so you don't worry about retaining that.
