User Banned 1 Day:Advocating for kids being slapped based on personal history

Based on personal history as if the distinction should really matter??  Like it's ok to advocate for slappings based on non-personal history, or based on a fully hypothetical situation?

someone explain to me why any thread has to be locked temporarily

[Bravotyler]

They mean checking the number of posts you've made in bad faith.

The fun part is pointing out that "if he gets banned then all these people should get banned."  And then some poor shmuck mod has to do it.

[clothedmacuser]

The funny thing is the banning started with someone "generalising" and using SJW unironically.

https://www.resetera.com/posts/5451884/
User Banned (3 Days): Generalisations about the community. Using 'SJW' as an insult.



And then someone realized that generalizing and saying SJW may not be as bad as saying, "I like child abuse."  Well not as bad.  Child abuse is a 1 day ban and generalizing is 3.

[clothedmacuser]

It’s clear this conversation has run its course. We are still reviewing posts herein but it will remain permanently closed to further replies.


Ahahaha.  I love this place!

Someone translate what "run it's course" means in ERA speak.

We're immature control freaks and are closing the discussion before we have to contend with our lack of emotional regulation.

User Warned: Trolling

Slayven on the scene.


I'm beginning to wonder if there is an actual list of who gets banned and who is ignored or only gets a "no infraction" warning.

[Transhuman]

Sarcasm isn't trolling, fucktard.

If you're a Restera mod and you're reading this, make sure whoever made that ban helps themselves to a fucking dictionary.

So, it’s been like 2-3 months and I’ve yet to get any official word on moderation handling death threats made against me that I’ve reported. I don’t know what to think. I shan’t speculate, but it is depressing.

Apparently you tweet about it, get someone to post the tweet, and then the mods back down like spine-less, unprincipled, vittle bitches.

[Hot Slice]

I don’t think I’ve tweeted about the threats yet. Some of them were by Era members through Twitter DM, but also from Era's PM system. Nothing new of course since I haven’t posted in ages.

[zomgee]

Post them here as screencaps, then.

Nah. Lid’s off now and as you can see from some of the posts in this thread, rationality is out the window.

Does Labor ever not say "some posters" or "some of the posts?"  I would love to see how often he uses the word "some."  Maybe one day he will grow a set of balls like Jpop and stop being such a timid, passive aggressive poster.

That's what I liked about you as a mod White Man.  You demanded names.

[clothedmacuser]

I'm thinking of that thread where some Gaffer repeatedly, drunkenly, sexually assaulted/yelled come-on's to Jane Pinckard at E3.  Some timid shit made a thread about it saying "some people on GAF,"  need to stop assaulting his staff.

It was only because of White Man cutting through the bullshit that we learned the name.  Since "Passive-Aggressive Timidness," is on the crest of arms of Era I doubt they do anything.

User banned 1 Day: Justified Child slapping

Is that a rule in the ToS or are opinions worthy of bans now

[Raist]

someone explain to me why any thread has to be locked temporarily

50 mods isn't enough to deal with one report per second.

[shosta]

Just to give more context, though, reports for the same post stack, so they don't clog up the report queue. lol

[TVC15]

Do you know if reports are anonymous, or can the mods choose to disregard reports from those they dislike?

[Raist]

What, you think they only report one post per thread or something?

You sweet summer child.

[shosta]

Do you know if reports are anonymous, or can the mods choose to disregard reports from those they dislike?

None of them are anonymous, although it's easy to think they are when you report. I PM'd a few people to follow up on some things and they were surprised (and embarrassed) that their names were visible.

[Hot Slice]

I can’t believe people thought the reports were anonymous. I bet mods or at least admins can see all the IPs.

Speaking of which, I wonder if that freaks anyone out. I tend to use proxies when posting on forums. I probably have posts here tied to no fewer than 5 different IPs. I’m posting from a Canadian one right now. Pretty cool, eh?

Why would you expect the reports to be anonymous ? And who would want that anyway if only to make sure some dude is not abusing it ? Though I'm not too surprised that ERA would have some groveling dudes not even able to stand by to such a minor action.

[clothedmacuser]

If only reports were anonymous.  If such, Beseda reporting my every post and saying it was "in bad-faith" wouldn't have mattered.

This is a pretty weird thread since you'd expect them to be like "OH WOW THIS IS A GREAT IDEA I THINK I'LL DO IT TOO" and are instead mad at the guy for having white privilege and living in a fantasy land for being able to not consume hours and hours of political news every day. To them, he's the sad and unhealthy one because he's not torturing himself over reading about Donald Trump all day.

As it turns out, you don't have to be rich at all to avoid Trump news. It's actually super, duper easy to not watch the news or read papers. Most people don't want to hear to talk about any of this shit either. I don't know where these people are going where they're constantly getting into political discussions.

[Averon]

Even back in old GAF, they were always eager to cut out friends and family from their lives if they felt they had the 'wrong' politics. It was not uncommon to have threads on old GAF of them discussing how they cut off friendships that lasted for years because their friend, in their view, was a shitlord.

That honestly does not sound healthy at all. And it really explains a lot about why they are so miserable when you think about it.
