So James Gunn has basically started a civil war of sorts those who are #teamgunn and those who are #TeamDisney it really shows what people are valuing as a priority that the absolute punishment should happen to everyone no matter the crime or when it happen. That an actual Rape, a dark comedy tweet, a tweet taken out of context, and lets say Murder all have the same weight and deserve the same punishment This is why Social Justice Warrior term has been villanized to such an extreme

What, suddenly PC gamers don't love the open platform philosophy of PC and not being tied to a single walled garden like those pesky consoles? Steam has been around for well over a decade and had time to work out the issues. New launchers will have issues and won't work flawlessly from the get go.

I find it strange that ERA have yet to fully dive in and condemn Geoff Keighley as a full blown alt-right Nazi. They certainly condemned other people for doing far less serious "sins." They mostly just expressing disappointment in Keighly. Maybe they realized going around calling Geoff Keighly an alt-right Nazi is a step too far even for them.

He must have a deadline on Operation: Infiltrate And Pwn The Libtards and was hoping to make moderator before it hits.

That or he really is that transparently and brazenly thirsty for power over other users.

Come on Era Mods! How can giving someone that thirsty for power what they lust for be a mistake?

Being a furry is not a fetish. Wearing a fursuit is not a fetish.

Some people get off on fucking in tuxedos. Does that mean everyone wearing a tuxedo is putting their tuxedo fucking fetish on display? Of course not. That's ridiculous.

What the fuck did Sonic Fox do that could be in anyway comparable to somebody smelling toes? What did he do that was in any way fetishy?

there was a point where i earnestly believed they were going to cast off the culture of insularity they had built at gaf, and actually be open to reasonable discussion and open to varying opinions, or atleast be able to handle themselves like adults without the bait banning/shit slinging/etc. that was so prominent before

instead they decided to just give it a week then pick up where they left off on gaf, which was headed towards the forum cannibalizing itself anyways, which will be spectacular to watch

It was pretty illuminating to me in the gaf-crash discords how many people really fucking hated what gaf had become and how it was being moderated.

era really seems one staff scandal away from seeing the same thing happen.

edit:
it was also pretty illuminating how when gaf crashed so many other gaming communities weren;t going "cool, fresh blood incoming".
they were going "christ, I hope they don't come here"

How in the hell did they hire this guy in the first place? How could they not look at a potential hire's social media history when you are hiring them to run your social media?

Permanent unemployment for posting "PC Gaming #Won'tBeErased."  Seems reasonable.

I don't know anything about the guy besides that tweet -- which seems innocuous to me.  The poster asked "Why would they hire him?  Haven't they seen his social media?"    I wasn't talking about the place he is employed at now.  I don't know anything about that.   That's not the point.

He was also responsible for the postal 2 "games journalism" tweet and the "assume their gender" tweet. I think 3 times like that is probably past the point of credibility for "i didn't know what i was doing"

the eurogamer article talks about how he was talked to by management numerous times about his tweets before they finally let him go. he's a fucking dunce. after getting shit from your boss several times for misusing memes or hashtags on the corporate social media account you'd learn to do 30 seconds of work to check to make sure you're not crossing a line.

I mean of course I don't think he shouldn't be allowed to have (other) jobs or a normal life but you also won't find me feeling bad for him either

Dox a dude and ruin his life so that the only place that will employ him is a shitty youtuber

Use the fact that he is employed by shitty youtuber to justify the above.

I was laughing at the idea that resetera is a hotbed of gamergaters, because it clearly fucking isn't.

And yeah, I can give the benefit of the doubt on not knowing the exact date gamergate as a movement began - because who the fuck remembers that except those balls to the wall in kulturkampf? - when posting a screenshot of a videogame on sale for a storefront that sells videogames, but credibility stretches on using a hashtag as a social media manager without at least seeing what that hashtag is about.
You're not gonna see Burger King advertise their Big King price cut at the same time as a Big Mac price cut with #metoo.

But if you've been outed as the face behind an account, and your real name is now assocated with gamergate, who the fuck is going to hire you except people who are probably okay with that?

the funny thing is that eurogamer puff piece that everybody is complaining about still just ends up making him look worse, even if they were trying to be sympathetic. he sounds like a grade schooler trying to explain how his sister's dolls got broken

99.9% of the planet doesn't even know what GamerGate is.
Also the number of people that still know what Watergate stands for is dwindling.

I doubt 99.9% of US knows, much less the rest of the world.

He was also responsible for the postal 2 "games journalism" tweet and the "assume their gender" tweet. I think 3 times like that is probably past the point of credibility for "i didn't know what i was doing"

the eurogamer article talks about how he was talked to by management numerous times about his tweets before they finally let him go. he's a fucking dunce. after getting shit from your boss several times for misusing memes or hashtags on the corporate social media account you'd learn to do 30 seconds of work to check to make sure you're not crossing a line.

I mean of course I don't think he shouldn't be allowed to have (other) jobs or a normal life but you also won't find me feeling bad for him either

That one wasn't on him.

Kind of weird to describe it as a puff piece when its pretty heavily editorialising against him, solely on the basis it gave the accused an opportunity to describe events in their own words.
Which is sort of like, the baseline for what I expect from a functional society.

Oh, well fair enough.
Of course certain restarea posters are gonna call it a puff piece. Even if it had just been his photo and "fuck this piece of shit, he got what he deserved, I hope he dies homeless on the streets" 100 times, there'd still probably be people going "I dunno, seems kind of gamer gaterish to not attack him more, whats your post count?"

are you knuckleheads really defending a dude with a transphobic bent who is working with a pro-incel, right wing, sexual harrasser just so you can disagree with resetera?

Is this still about Geoff Keighley?

Is Marrec one of those idiots that posts on REEE, gets banned, starts posting here to complain about it and then returns to prison once he's allowed back in.

Gamergate is over 4 years old. Who the fuck would know exactly when GG kicked off down to the exact day? I bet even people who, to this day, still obsess over GG, most of them can't say the exact date GG kicked off at at the top of their heads. It is a ridiculous standard to judge someone by, especially when most of them would fail that standard themselves..

it's still a weirdly specific gif to post when trying to sell Postal 2. "buy our game, it pisses on game journalism!"
