And the moose knuckle thread is closed.

My God the moderation has such thin skin. There is definitely a vibe of No Fun Allowed over there and simply cracking a dumb joke has you looking over your shoulder.

Now it seems as they are going to go through this locked thread with a fine tooth comb and hand out warnings to anyone who made a sexist comment about camel toes.

since nothing productive has come of it

How often does anything productive ever come of any forum post?  What do they expect to happen?  A dev stops by and says "given the response in this thread, we're removing the cameltoe?"

They say how a thread is not being productive all the time but what they really mean is "too many posts aren't toeing the official forum line."  And yet there are few things less productive than simply repeating what's expected of you.

You don't see threads closed for being unproductive when all that's posted in them is "shameful," "how problematic," "disgusting."

The left lost their minds when Bush Jr. got elected too, although at least it was somewhat justified between the stolen election and launching an illegal war... and even then, not as far off the deep end as the right went when Clinton was elected.

Trump, by comparison, hasn’t really done anything worth losing ones mind over yet. His administration hasn’t accomplished anything beyond a few executive orders. Although he probably just threw napalm on the Middle East with the Jerusalem thing.

The GOTY awards we were all waiting for are here! :hyper

Quote
The other way she chooses to deal with it is through her aforementioned sex drive. She is the most up-front and honest about her sexual preferences and desires out of all the cast, and it’s no coincidence that her route in The Fruit of Grisaia is the most front-loaded with explicit H-scenes in the 18+ version, nor that she has the most of them out of any character. Despite the fact she often self-deprecatingly refers to herself as a “slut”, however, this is not to say that her routes are nothing but shallow pornography. On the contrary, her story threads are perhaps the most potent example of how the Grisaia series successfully integrates its sexual content into its unfolding narrative.

Amane’s route is a solid exploration of how sex is one of the most intimate ways two people can interact with one another, and it reflects this by these scenes involving both her and protagonist Yuuji being at their most honest with one another — both in terms of how they behave and what they say. One of Amane’s most interesting scenes is an H-scene, in fact; after deciding that she wants to try some light S&M play with Yuuji, we then get to experience the situation from her perspective rather than Yuuji’s, including being “blindfolded” and thus having to assume what is happening based on the sensations she is experiencing. It’s a unique insight into the character quite unlike anything I’ve experienced in any other visual novel — not to mention an intriguing subversion of how H-scenes are typically presented in this kind of game.

For sure, a lot of my reason for picking Amane as my Best Waifu of 2017 is to do with what an interesting character she is, but I can’t neglect the fact that I also simply find her enormously attractive. Her Amazonian stature, formidable bustline, long luxurious red-pink hair and array of facial expressions that make me weak at the knees were what immediately attracted me to the character, but then she well and truly reeled me in with everything else.

I raise my glass to you, Amane Suou. You are one of the finest waifus in all of gaming, and a huge part of why the Grisaia series is something I will extoll the virtues of to anyone at great length.

"Despite the fact she often self-deprecatingly refers to herself as a “slut”, however, this is not to say that her routes are nothing but shallow pornography. On the contrary, her story threads are perhaps the most potent example of how the Grisaia series successfully integrates its sexual content into its unfolding narrative."

Last 9 days:

1,000 new members
400,000 posts

Post wise it's been fairly consistent from the start;  which is ~1,500-2,000 posts per day depending on the day averaging out to somewhere in between that number.    It's busy, and 1,000 new people in a week isn't really slow per say.  Obviously the largest mass was gonig to join during the exodus.
Those are all the banned people trying to get back in.

The biggest reaction the camel toe should have received is an eye roll. Nerds out here making 11 page threads about how sexist and misogynist it is or and trying to snitch on people who aren't offended. Come on, y'all. Priorities.

When you waste your time on videogame boards while a growing chunk of people in modern states wants to embrace nationalism and the obstruction of social welfare, you either:
a) have the decency to admit that you're a nerd, but at least games are a good form of escapism.
b) desperately make yourself feel important by trying to turn videogame panties into a hot button political issue like a stupid fucking clown.

In that conspiracy theory thread on resetera, the amount of posters that are 911 truthers/false flag believers is staggering. And this is supposed to be on an intelligent educated forum. Makes me wonder what % of the USA is a 911 truther. Always thought it was just some small Alex Jones fringe group.

I guess also you just always wear those skirt bathing suits?

Unless, your nu-Trans and you have a beard and shit, but just claim you’re a woman and get upset that straight dudes don’t want to date you.

Thankfully gafreeera has lots of experts on the social issues and history of Eastern Europe to make sure that the game's thread is heading in the right direction.

I wish I had an account there: someone needs to double down in the cameltoe thread and explain that since characters are dressed by the players, some female players may want to wear cameltoe pants.

And why would the dev not enable them to make their choice? Anything else would be disenfranchisement of that particular minority female voice that needs to be heard.

Hello,
Really wish I didn’t have to make a thread like this again when I made one on Gaf a year ago, but here goes.
I am being bullied. I am constantly called different names everyday by people because of how I walk or how I talk. I have a lot of friends don’t get me wrong, but some just constantly make fun of me. For example, one day I walked through the hallway and this person called me distinguished mentally-challenged. I don’t even know who the person is but they have done that everyday. Honestly Resetera I am struggling in how to cope with this. I mean I could try to fight them but I don’t believe violence is the answer.
Advice?

So, how many of you were okay with the Vegas shooting because it was at a country music concert and "they were conservative so they probably deserved it"?

Trump winning is a travesty for this country, an absolute embarssment. An asshole reality TV star con man who can barely finish a sentence without sounding like a moron.. and you guys are "both sides"-ing as if that's comparable to any other Presidential win.  Huge difference here being plenty on the right are also incredibly embaressed and concerned, for one.

"Both sidesing" has become as much a reductive catch-all statement as "whataboutism" or "bad faith."

The quintessential bit of "both sides" has historically been "both sides are equally as bad as the other," trying to point out hypocrisy on either side, and make it seem like politics is really just a coin flip.

The post you were referring to, dude just said the left is losing its mind.  And it is, observably so.  Pointing that out doesn't take away from the fact that Trump has none of the qualifications for being a capable president by any metric.  Both statements can be true.

You can say the left should be losing their minds, as should everybody else at this point, but the kind of insanity being bandied about in this thread isn't usually directed at Trump.  Gaf/Reset Era discovered it has no control over the presidency, so instead its members are flailing around trying to exert control anywhere they can, taking out their frustrations on each other, virtue signaling like mad, and casting suspicion on anyone who isn't doing the same.

In that conspiracy theory thread on resetera, the amount of posters that are 911 truthers/false flag believers is staggering. And this is supposed to be on an intelligent educated forum. Makes me wonder what % of the USA is a 911 truther. Always thought it was just some small Alex Jones fringe group.

Anecdotally, based on the amount of 911 truthers/false flag believers I've encountered IRL, I would say a very large percentage.
I see the confusion here.

The general apolitical mass don't know what the real story is, they just have questions about the 'official' story that doesn't add up. And they may have seen a YouTube video that was very convincing. But aren't willing to commit to anything either way, it just seems fishy.

Truthers know and have exposed the actual truth, in detail and have all kinds of proof, which is why the government has silenced them and you can't meet them often in real life. It's too dangerous for them to work publicly to help expose the truth and also too dangerous for the actual powers that run the world for them to gain mass acceptance.

Inbetween are the people who sent you links to that Zeitgeist film a hundred times a decade ago and without looking are I assume what the ERA thread is full of.
