Watching Rick Scott dodge questions tonight was unfucking real. You gotta be cold blooded to still hold your political stance while kids in your state just got massacred.

I know that this is going to be off topic here but I do think it's important to try and give some context here.

For the people enquiring about other member's bans, this is something that's being discussed right now as to best way to get the balance right about keeping other members up to date but also respecting the privacy of the members who may have incurred a ban of some sort.

I'm not referring to any particular ban now but it does seem sometimes that when a ban is issued that other members can attribute it to the most recent post of the member who is banned, when that isn't necessarily the case. Whenever we issue disciplinary action there can be a history behind that rather than it just being due to a single incident and I know that it can be very difficult to establish justification for a ban without being able to see the larger picture.

One of the things that is true and I think this is worth remembering is that anybody who is banned does have the ability to get in touch and appeal their ban as we don't want people to feel they have just had the door locked behind them and that they are expected to put up with action that they genuinely feel is incorrect.

Lets be honest, people may well be unhappy about their ban but that can be a very different thing to feeling that it was a justifiable ban. I do think it's positive that other members can be concerned but I also thing that it's very positive that members haven't been getting in touch when they've been banned as that hopefully illustrates that although they may not like that it's happened that there's a certain level of understanding, of acceptance that it's been done for the correct reasons.

One of the things that's been discussed is a way to give other members a general idea of the length of the ban because they can and do happen for anywhere between a single day and a permanent ban. Maybe there would be a countdown or a return date showing their username, something along those lines. At the moment it simply says "banned" which could literally mean anything and we are hoping to clarifying that in some way even though the best way of doing it hasn't yet been decided.

I mentioned earlier that there can be bans for a single day, although I've not issued one of those I have personally given people what may be best to think of as "a couple of days break" if they've possibly been too involved, too heated in a particular discussion and it's looking like it's probably going to benefit them/and us for them to not be able to take part for a weekend or so. I think it's better than to just let things carry on and risk that they could well end up doing something a lot worse, maybe get other people involved and even end up with a longer ban.

Permanent bans are pretty rare although they do become more common when there's an large group of new members being admitted. It may seem silly but there are people who sign up who really don't want to be members. They'll just post links to porn, shops that sell PSN accounts or just come here to disrupt the site. Luckily we do catch the vast majority of those posts with the post approval system. Some do get through but it is fortunately quite rare.

As many people will be aware there has been issues with bans in the past where they had seemingly been done solely to damage NeoGAF but none of the team want anything like that to happen now. In reality if we were to ban ten people today then that's ten people who aren't able to contribute while they are banned. For the most basic of reason that we want people to be happy posting here and also to feel safe while doing so, a ban will only be issued if we see it as being for the benefit to the forum and/or the member who is actually being banned.

Nothing has been set in stone yet about how we're going to proceed with that but that's because we want to ensure that we do it the best way we can, for everybody. I am sorry that I've taken this off topic somewhat but I did think it was important to add some context here.

Of course, if people do have constructive feedback then please do post that feedback in the NeoGAF 2.0 Error Reporting & Feedback Thread.

I try so hard. Every time I think I'm getting through to someone, another dude comes along reinforcing the shitty beliefs I'm trying to chip away at. Got one dude I know who I was having a decent talk to about GamerGate and why it was fucked up, another dude rolls up and starts shit-talking nonbinary folk. Got one dude talking about sexism, got another dude rolling up saying our workplace doesn't have sexism. HA. I've had conversations with women at work about precisely that. Told another white dude that calling Asian people "oriental" is racist, had an ACTUAL ASIAN WOMAN agree with me, right there, and then had two dudes go like "I don't think it's actually racist, that's just what they're called". ???ASRLIKGNaewrineg

Pointed out that Ugandan Knuckles is some racist ass shit the other day and a white dude literally said "white people shouldn't tell black people what's racist" and I was like heyyyyyyyyyyyyyy okay?? At least in this specific case I had one other white dude backing me up. And then after that ANOTHER white dude was like "maybe someone who's not a white dude should chime in" and I just i just what what WHAT are you kidding meeeeeeeeeeeeee

It's so fucking exhausting.

I know this comes off like me whining like I have it hard somehow, but I promise I don't mean it that way.

He forgot to add "so you can get banned for it."  And that's not a joke...as examples of anyone posting constructive criticism and getting banned for it, cited in this very thread, have shown.   

On the subject of NeoGAF, Thug 1 doesn't have his older moderation staff to blame for this shit anymore, either.  And what was that about him literally threatening to dox account suiciders and contact their employers/family about it?  He's learned absolutely nothing and is just as immature now as he was when he started doing all this forum shit almost two decades ago.  Fucking unbelievable.

You misread that. He said the people that threatened suicide (VASTLY different from account suicides on the internet. Like, actual in-real-life self-death suicide, dude) were the ones he had to "doxx" to find to contact the police.

Having a talk about GamerGate?


You know GamerGate is behind that?

"What?  What is GamerGate?"

You know, the oppressive force of GamerGate that thrives in 2018 and led to Donald Trump?

"What is GamerGate in the first place?"

It's the den of massive male-cis toxicity that dictates how games are create and marketed.

Your positive experiences and interactions with resetera are valid no matter what, but individual anecdotes are NOT an adequate counterpoint to a systemic issue

Are you saying that Hillary would have ordered lobster, steak AND a monthly salary's worth of beluga caviar?

My personal preference are girls who feel that access to my dick is reward enough for putting out, so i would probably have bailed on that girl after asking for a split check.

Wtf with you kids acting like $50 isn’t a lot, I know you ain’t millionaires in real life so stop being fake.

$50 is more than the most expensive entree at a 5 star restaurant in a major city (I’m thinking Boston). Don’t be ridiculous.

$50 is a hell of a lot to order on a first date, period. It’s rude and exploitative.

Ah so you're just an inconsiderate edgelord. Nothing to see here.

Warned for being "inflammatory"

I don't see what that's got to do with it? Maybe OP just likes halibut? Lobstergirl likes lobster

Edit:

The "triple his order" thing is a red herring (lol). If they were in McDs and OP got nuggets and lobstergirl ordered the Grand Mac noone would be bagging on her. Y'all are just poor is what I'm getting here.

Banned for calling others poor.

Maybe its just me but anyone coming out of nowhere and judging someone else or putting blame on someone else based upon what they personally consider expensive is a douchebag in my book.

Not everyone has the same level of "fancy" or "expensive" and they should be entitled to their own levels of sticker shock without being judged so harshly.

Warned for "personal attack".

oh no 50 dollars, who does she think you are, a millionaire?! now how can you buy the latest horse amour.
