Amirox didn’t make it long enough to get Gaf Gold so he’ll have to settle for Prison Gold.

If you asked me five years ago I would have voted Amir0x as Gaffer most likely to have a person pee in a cup and throw it at him.

Someone should send screen caps of all of this to amirox in prison.

You'd think that with Ami's experience in pissing contests at NeoGAF, he'd be able to hold his own in that scenario but nope.

You suck, Ami.

It's become a 2k franchise, not that it's contractually llmited as is the NFL case.  EA helps this by fucking up Live, but 2k running out the same faulty approach every year without any real competition is just as lame as the Madden scenario.

That's what 2K's always done with it. It's what they did with NFL too.

VC's NBA 2K engine truly dates back to NBA Action 98 for the Sega Saturn/PC. It's like Call of Duty in that you can play the games in order and see how they've dabbled with it over time. I'm sure there's nothing left of it but even if you went 98->2K->2K3->2K6->etc. you'd notice the similarities and evolution in basic mechanics especially the animation handling.

EA's had the opposite problem in that they've scrapped and started new engines over and over, even when they didn't need to. Rather than doing anything incremental for more than a year or two. The best considered Live games historically were always second or third iterations of the engine.

Madden's had a bit of both as its issue over the years.

FLASH FACT: VC worked on the cancelled PS1/Saturn Madden 96 and were one of EA's sports developers before EA brought that all in house. After the cancellation, they did NHL 97 and split off, before landing in the warm bosom of Sega.

Theirs positives and negatives with keeping old engines. The issue is the new stuff that added to the consoles. You can make new engines to call up the new libraries in the architecture, or you can use the old engines to run the data better and add new links to the old codes backbone.

The problem is new hitches appear on older backbones because either the library in the old code doesnt need be called in the new architecture. One of the ways ID handle it was to build a new engine based on old code for DOOM's secret levels. Dont know why more folks do it that way (and if they do then its kinda sad it isnt done well due to crunch etc)

IIRC, Amir0x's plea agreement will result in minimal prison time (especially since he's been in jail since the arrest), it'll be the probation violation within two months of getting out that puts him in for longer.

My reading of the law didn't entirely agree with the guy on VOAT but he's actually talked to court officials and works there (and I assume is more familiar with PA process) and he suggested Amir0x might even be able to avoid registering as a sex offender depending on whether the judge wishes to sentence beyond the plea agreement.

After re-reading the section and the next part that I didn't know was related I agreed with the post he made suggesting the lack of extra jail time.

So this happened as he's almost on his way out potentially.

I was wondering this, too. I figured shit like this happened in jails all the time to the degree that it wasn’t newsworthy.

I’m wagering the sites reporting on this saw how their hit counts soared on the initial reports and are fishing for more Ami gold. No doubt this article got more traffic than gaf today.

Yeah it is honestly bizarre. You'd figure lots of weird shits goes down in prison every day without ending up on the news.

"I swiped right on him, and we 'matched,'  which means he had already swiped right on me first.  I felt so violated, coerced, I was only 35 at the time and suffering from a prolapsed rectum which made me hyper analy sensual and he was 36 and should have known better."  - Twitter post in the future.

I can't believe we have Gamergate doxxers on this forum, I thought this was a safe space for the community.

[benjipwns]

It really makes you take stock of the degraded state of our criminal justice system under Trump though. If something like that could happen to a former NeoGAF.com moderator and leader of a cell of #TheResistance of all people what's stopping it from happening to me?

From the author of the #ResetEra manifesto: https://www.resetera.com/posts/587896/

This was an argument I would often articulate during the hashing out about how trigger warnings should be handled circa 2013.

My personal context is that I used to have an aunt who tormented me with a ventriloquist dummy named Willie Talk. Willie Talk lived in my grandparents house. Every time I went over, she would bring him out and terrify me with him. It's the kind of thing that could only ever be scary to an especially young child, and it is difficult to convey how frightening it was, but the terror I felt at that age was extreme and debilitating. I believed that doll was evil, I believed it wanted to hurt me, and my aunt played my fear of the doll to her advantage every opportunity she got.

My fear made her jubilant. She loved when I came to the house because she thought it was hilarious how scared I got. When I was a blathering snotty mess, she would put the doll away and promise me she'd gotten rid of it. She said it was in the trash, or in the fireplace, and that she would protect me from now on. She'd make me tell her I loved her and promised the doll was gone forever and then bring it back out at the next opportunity and send me into a tailspin of horror and broken trust. She'd lock me in the closet with it, she'd tuck it in next to me when I was asleep, she would call me to dinner and have it sitting at the dinner table. She made me afraid to go anywhere or do anything because I thought the doll would be there.

My aunt was institutionalized a few years ago. I don't know where she is now.

Up until my twenties I had a paralyzing fear of ventriloquist dolls. Seeing one, especially unexpectedly, would force me into a physical lockdown. My eyes would squeeze shut, I would involuntarily crouch on the ground, and breaking from this position required an immense effort. Even if I only locked down for a few seconds, coming out of it was exhausting. It would suddenly feel like I hadn't slept in days and I would collapse in fatigue at the earliest opportunity.

Every time I would stumble across one in an antique store or see on on television, I physically revolted to the stimulus because I would illogically believe I was about to be murdered. My body would brace itself for it and there was nothing I could do to stop it. I avoided dummies, I warned people I knew, and I just tried to go as much of my life as possible without ever seeing or interacting with these dolls. This was thankfully fairly easy. You don't see ventriloquist dolls every day.

As I got older, I slowly overcame my fear by forcing exposure to the stimulus. The first many times were difficult. I needed somebody else there. I needed to psyche myself up and know it was going to happen. There were a few times where I felt like my heart was going to explode out of my chest and the dummy would actually succeed in killing me that way. But it got better with time. I was able to repress and resist my involuntary convulsions until they stopped happening. I was able to actually laugh a bit about it. It took years of controlled exposure but finally I wasn't afraid of the dolls. I finally considered myself "over it" when I found one in an antique store and was able to pick the doll up.

I still have an involuntary reaction. Seeing a doll unexpectedly still shocks me a bit. I can feel my heart rate go up and sometimes it gives me a sudden sweat response. My eyes always quickly shift away from it as if I'm walking in on somebody naked. But it only lasts about a second and the response is really minor. I can look the doll in the face and keep walking. I am fine.

I would not be a functioning adult who is not afraid of puppets if I continued to shield myself from the stimulus. There are realities and traumas far more damaging than something like this. What I went through is only a fraction of what rape victims or war veterans must process -- I would never equate fear of dolls to that kind of anguish. But my experience did teach me the value of facing your fear until you can resume ordinary function. Even if it never goes all the way away, and even if it still upsets you, you will be stronger if you can overcome it. Hiding from reality gives your trauma infinite power over you. It suppresses and poisons and crushes you and that's why some people found seemingly arbitrary trigger warnings so appealing.

Nobody wants to face their demons. But you must.

Medicine and mental health care do not focus on helping you hide from your pain. They help you process it. They help you challenge it and overcome it. Shelter and censorship will not help you do that. Triumphing over trauma is very hard and everyone works through it in different ways and at a different pace. When denizens on Tumblr wanted me to help them self-censor their exposure to Mass Effect GIFs, I knew I was off the trigger warning train. That is not something I support.

And because this is a sensitive subject, I want to clarify again that I absolutely do not make light of the things that haunt people. I do not think everyone seeking content warnings for their own benefit is hiding from something, or avoiding the truth, or rejecting reality. It's also not my decision when or how people with trauma attempt to overcome it. That's on them. I would not punish or rebuff somebody who isn't ready to do that and I don't intend to shame anyone who seeks the comfort of content warnings in spaces where they are just not looking to stare their demons down. I hope I have articulated that I support anyone with heavy hearts and minds. My issues with trigger warnings are not in their concept, but in their execution and legacy.

Probably made her feel like shit.

I was thinking of just saying I know him from the internet, but just realized how that might sound misleading. Don't want to be confused with one of his "other" friends.

I'm pretty sure I know how to contact him. Still, the more I think about it, the more sad I get. I know many of you probably won't have sympathy for him or anyone who's committed crimes of that nature, and I don't blame you, but looking at his mugshot almost breaks my heart for some reason. He's just so soft looking. Not trying to go full Opiate here, but I hope, at least for his sake, he straightens the fuck up. Don't want to say anything mean to him because I'm not sure how mentally stable he is right now.

Any ideas on what to write?

I'm enjoying the place so far, although it's irritating to see a bunch of the worst posters from the other place who got banned for racism, sexism, homophobia, etc.

RecherchEra isn't just some "message board", it's the preeminent video game industry discussion community.

I’d like it to be GAF with transparent moderation. That was the biggest problem in OT. Now, bad bans can be called out for what they are

Sorry not too familiar with the prison system

These kind of posts are really making me feel like this isn't a safe space anymore.

I always felt this was the kind of place where enough people had watched those six hour Lockup marathons on MSNBC weekend nights that it was like we all had a shared bond like those on the inside.

Now I really don't feel like you guys are going to leave here understanding power dynamics. And you won't have etoliate to protect you out in the real world. You'll have to perform as a gay stereotype for anyone who demands it.

I chose not to buy this for Windows even after being impressed by the art direction and attention to detail knowing deep inside that the intention of most of the original work was to deceive people into believing and even accepting racism/casual racism was ok and no one was actually getting hurt in the process when that couldn't be further from the actual truth. By not addressing it at all this new work continues to perform the original function whether the developers/publishers/players are consciously aware of it or not.

You misread it (as did I the first time), the original cartoons was the deceptive art doing this, and Cuphead uses the same style, so they should put a warning about the potentially offensive content that is the different art done in the same style. Much like all films with close-ups put this warning due to it being first done in The Birth of a Nation.

Probably made her feel like shit.

That’s just what kids do.  When I was a kid there was an elderly woman I’d see in church who was missing both eyes and she didn’t wear dark glasses.  I thought her empty eye sockets were creepy as hell and that she was scary but she was just a blind lady in church.

There was also a dude that walked around our building that didn't have a nose. Like Tales of the Crypt style. He just had a gaping hole, like a skeleton, and all the kids thought he was a demon. There was also a degenerate drunkard that lived on the first floor and used to stick his dick out the window and jack off while yelling at the children. I grew up in a weird neighborhood.
