I do though, 4chan doesn't dox people. Also 4chan isn't even a singular site.   :lol it has a bunch if boards with different cultures.

That's my point dingus.

Twitter is a service anyone can use, whereas resetera is a forum with an enforced ideology. You get that right?
Given how many alt right bitch about being banned from Twitter... You are wrong.  :doge

But can you point me the doxxing threads on Era up right now?

When a member of a site doxxes someone, and members of the site endorse that, and contribute to the atmosphere that encourages that harassment, the sentence "era doxxes people" is appropriate.

Problem here is people get banned from era for "doxing", and in this case.. any doxxing was deleted from the thread, a guy got banned.. and the general discussion was that it was bad anyone got doxxed.

Like I read that thread as it happened.. nobody was celebrating doxxing.

But Hecht is still Admin and I bet you any mention of it will get you banned.

Of course a mod may have been involved.. which is shady.. and good luck bringing that up at era... however, the forum in general did not dox anyone.

Way to undermine your own point.

At least I can tell the difference from a forum people sign in to talk about videogames and one people sign in to stalk and dox people because is the whole point of the forum.

This has nothing to do with your kindergarten "A forum isn't a person" logic

I read that thread as it happened as well... nobody was celebrating doxxing because multiple people were arguing that outting the dude wasn't doxxing. That's part of the cognitive dissonance that is expressed throughout ERA threads. We did it so it's not doxxing it's good.

Do you know what a false equivalency is?

Yes.

But you and the resetea mods that use that as a ban reason don't.
https://www.resetera.com/forums/video-games.7/

Tell me the many non gaming threads on the first page and the OT. I see one.

 :umad

was the phrase you were looking for something like "unfounded generalisation" or "unfair mischaracterisation", not "false equivalency"?

Did hecht get banned? Demodded? Face any repercussions whatsoever? Was discussion concerning hecht doxxing someone allowed to exist on the forum? Sweeping it under the rug is encouragement. Not to mention the hundreds of "fuck that guy" comments.

But you can't just "but" away what I said.. what Transhuman said is fucking ridiculous.  You even hint you are doxxing someone on era and you'll generally get banned and dog piled... like come on..ya'll are some disengenuous fucking hypocrites sometimes.

RE has numerous members constantly advocating for "naming and shaming" and mob justice, with RedMercury even advocating for mob justice explicitly using the term "mob justice" as a positive thing. They as a community have encouraged and fostered a culture that's a tip-toe away from what most people consider doxxing. So when an admin goes and doxxes someone without repercussion and the community celebrates the outcome of said doxxing (see the latest thread), it's safe to say it's a doxxing community, even if they don't allow normal users to regularly step over that line they're constantly kissing.

I read that thread as it happened as well... nobody was celebrating doxxing because multiple people were arguing that outting the dude wasn't doxxing.

Trying to figure out who runs a company's twitter account is grey area to me.

The fact the dude's father got a phone call is another story; that's doxxing for sure.

I thought that at first too, but standing back from it all, the guy was the focal point in a controversy that was covered by gaming media. Outing him had no journalistic value, it only served to make it easier for people to harass him in his private life.

If you want to talk about the hect thing.. talk about it.

That's not what you were talking about in the post I quoted.

I mean, clearly ERA doesn't fully endorse doxxing people. They ban people who shared information considered "doxxed" or any person actively "doxxing".

Also clearly, a lot of people who stomp their feet and say "ERA doxxes people!" are doing it not because they're so concerned about doxxing but because they want to catch ERA (as a whole) in some trap of hypocrisy and poison the well and invalidate anything that comes from the site. Also some want to be entertained and calling ERA a hate site is entertaining to them.

Buuut... the people who post on ERA do have a duality when it comes to this kind of thing. They gleefully celebrate getting "nazis" fired via doxxed information but quickly furrow their brows when a comic book movie director is fired for bad joke tweets, they maintain a thin veneer of civility while playing whack-a-mole with couch bound violent revolutionaries. The ideology of ERA encourages ever increasing expressions of disgust and hatred toward their chosen outgroup (REPUBLICANS!) and stops JUST SHORT of open advocations of mass extermination of that group... there is never any attempt to change the dynamic that's maintaining this bubbling brew. In a lot of ways it reminds me of other radicalization vectors across the internet.

So when people say "ERA doxxes people!" you know, as a person who uses the english language on a regular basis, that they aren't claiming ERA is a person who doxxes. They're claiming that ERA encourages doxxing through celebration of cause and affect, and only bans people who're stupid enough to break through the thin veneer of civility and stop winking at each other. When you start making excuses like "well they run a twitter PR account" or "the information was easily accessible!" or "they're a nazi" you're endorsing doxxing as a weapon that only you can wield.

yeah, there are like 39k most likely sane people on era, but they don't really matter. we are obvio talking about the handful of bat shit crazy people that post there, you know, the ones that get quoted here all the time. they set the tone* of the entire forum, made the staff their bitches and it's clearly them people mean when they say "Era is.."

And those crazy people were absolutely cheering on the doxing.

I don't disagree with any of this really. 

People still exagerate like crazy here; they do the same shit that some people from era do about Twitter or Reddit or any site w/ a mix of people.

Twitter and Reddit are big enough and diverse enough that you can't pin down a single culture.

RE has a culture, enforced by the mods. Of course there are individual variances within that culture, and other individuals that are merely among that culture without participating in it, but there is definitely a predominant culture there that is as marrec described.

I've said it a billion times, but I literally never exaggerate

Era actively fosters a community spirit of paranoid witch hunting, and they have done pretty much since their stupid fucking secret discord 'rescue groups' founding where you had to get your PM invites on the down low, because otherwise who knows WHAT kind of people might sign up to a videogame discussion forum.

Thats why all their purity tests and slickness checks, secret histories of histories, and side eyes about saying what you REALLY mean inevitably leads here, and a with us or against us, gobblegoobers under the bed everywhere, fuck everyone that aint us, they deserve what they get, because we're making omelettes and fuck all them egg motherfuckers mentality.

For a fucking videogame forum.

edit:
and honestly, it really feels like a lot of them really fucking want another #gamergate so that they can have a nice cassus belli to act like complete shitbags to people but excuse their own behaviours under a blanket of zealous justice

35 pages? I'm not going to read through that, but I take it he's a confirmed super nazi now. Because that's how it works for the reeee. Harass people by calling them nazis until they snap, so you can prove to yourself that they really are.

I don't disagree with any of this really. 

People still exagerate like crazy here; they do the same shit that some people from era do about Twitter or Reddit or any site w/ a mix of people.

Twitter and Reddit are big enough and diverse enough that you can't pin down a single culture.

RE has a culture, enforced by the mods. Of course there are individual variances within that culture (and the majority of the people posting there), and other individuals that are merely among that culture without participating in it, but there is definitely a predominant culture there that is as marrec described.

Vast majority of conversations are not a part of the culture you guys describe though.  I have 3k posts there in a year and never come across ANY of the people discussed in this thread.  Like I don't know who Red Mercury is for instance, not sure I've even read one of their posts outside of it being quoted here. 

Yes every single thread touching remotely on politics instantly is taken over by the "culture" you guys are describing.    It's worthy of a thread making fun of it.. a thread I participate in because there's some funny stuff in there.

Undermine your own point again.

'my' lolcow friends in as much as 'your' lolcow friends, given the extent of my interactions with anyone from there is resetbanbot posts here and so do I.

Maybe milo should post here, he's a professional troll and would hold a more coherent argument than you

I actually like that about riotous. He's willing to highlight the weaknesses in his position, showing nuance. Even if I think he comes to the wrong conclusion on quite a few things, I appreciate his willingness to weaken his point and even to be wrong for the sake of accuracy and completeness.

The alternative is bananas.

EDIT: That's not fair. The dumbest, most stubborn version of riotous wouldn't even approach the stupidity of that dullard.

Apparently you don't look down enough to understand why Era users were paranoid.

Okay, let's pretend that it was a totally valid matter of operational security and not a clever ruse to get some FOMO fermenting by making it seem like resetera was the hot new invite only secret members club.

Why is that attitude still encouraged today?
If someone wants to sign up to troll, they can.
Why is the default response to saying things like "we should wait on the facts" when a twitter J'Accuse occurs met with "hmm, seems suspicious someone wouldn't want to dogpile with the rest of us, whys your account set to private? How long have you been posting? What other threads have you not immediately jumped to conclusions in?"

gasp they gathered a bunch of discord info
ultimately (assuming they actually were going to doxx people) it would only be people who would give the best reaction, hence anyone who was irrelevant (most users that are normal people) would be passed over bc whats the fun in stirring shit w/randoms when u get nothing out of it

& i didnt see anything on that page except the same shit i see here, mocking stupid posts & threads, so ??

Anyone can fucking register there.

So why play stupid "say what you REALLY mean" games with posters that have been there since day one, like they're some unactivated sleeper cell just waiting to, what, offer a measured and reasonable reaction as a hate trains getting warmed up?
