I'll save my extremely limited cares for somebody who actually tries to better themselves instead of always wallowing in self-pity

That is way different to start to actually bullying him.

THREADMARK : Detailed oppo research on one of the alleged victims, Wade Robson

I'd thought threadmarks would be used purely for moderation purposes. I guess at least one mod is really invested on promoting one side in this particular story...


Also at putting the Rotten Tomatoes score in the thread title.

CANCEL HUMANITY.

"detailed oppo research" 

One thing Era brought over Neogaf is the annoying, awful insider jargon. Coupled with what seem to be mandatory emphasis (everything is to be qualified as "literally", "criminally", "detailed") it's just so painful to read. There's something to say for plain language and it's clarity, especially for things related to the forum administration.

That thread is fascinating given how many of the usual “believe the victims” are now saying “this dudes are sketchy”.

I’m not a Michael Jackson stan, so whatever about if he was a creep or just very weird celebrity (or both).

[PogiJones]

Threadmarks can be made by the OP. Or at least it shows the option; I've never used it myself.

Often they'll use threadmarks to show news updates or what have you. A separate tab called "staff posts" is where the mods usually put their messages, at least when they're feeling competent that day.

I don't really have a stake in the MJ thing but yeah it's an interesting case because if you believe he was clear of wrongdoing you seemingly accept that people can be innocent despite the most damning apparences you could imagine.

Correct. And just because criminals use it, that doesn't mean it should be made insecure for everyone else.
Anyone who cares about privacy isn't using Whatsapp anyway, because while the content of messages is now encypted (at last), information about you, your location, your contact list and the person receiving your message is not, and Facebook gets (and stores) all of it.
That's why morons use Facebook's software and smart people use Signal.

Last I checked the biggest knock I'd read against it is the unencrypted message history backup, enabled by default, that additionally can only be saved to iCloud or Google Drive. A person in a conversation may have this enabled without other parties' knowledge. Law enforcement can request such data with a warrant from these services as outlined in their documentation.

If you arent sending illegal messages in typed font, printed 100 miles away, coded by enigma and via carrier pigeons, you're a loser anyway.

That's terrible, and yet another reason not to use Whatsapp. Signal only allows for encrypted local backups.

Oh, and don't even start with the "Why is violence okay but sexualized children isn't!!!!" bullshit. You know who you fucking are, and you fucking know you're a pedophile for finding that shit arousing.

Striking while the iron is hot I see. They should produce some 'to catch a predator' type series where RE members go hunting for "paedo content" in games. The quoted line could be their catch phrase when they corner the deviant Japanese developers.

I'm fucking tired. Don't be surprised if i just completely duck out of the internet for a few weeks.

Ok.

The THQ Nordic incident (Who has a company i previously highly respected before that thanks to their game preservation work.) was bad enough, but this makes that whole incident look like a joke!

Until the next incident in 3 hours that will be literally worse than the previous one who was worse than genocide dogwhistling !

[VomKriege]

Once again, sexy time is totally a-ok AS LONG AS IT DOESN'T INVOLVE CHILDREN IN ANY WAY.

I'm not sure Era agrees to that.

If only. Less than half the people who take these stances do it out of principle. Most have way different reactions when it isn't something sexual getting removed.

I've talked about my really rough history with Dangan Ronpa on here, how AE completely fucked me up when it first launched after getting initially hyped for it, how i gained a genuine romantic attachment to Kiibo, Miu, and Ouma. (Which is exactly the same thing that happened with AE and Komaru!)

This gave me aids 

Komaru is a teenager around high school age,

 

[VomKriege]

For the record, I totally agree that it should be up to console manufacturers, and ratings boards, to decide what is and isn't appropriate to have in a game. I also personally wish publishers had taken a similar stance with books in the past, so that we could have cleaned up stuff like Nabokov's Lolita, and Stephen King's It. As soon as a story involves characters under the age of 15(18? 20? Depends on the country I guess), they should never be shown in a way that could be seen as sexualizing, no matter how "integral" to the story and themes it may or may not be. Nude children should not be allowed in the public space. The integrity of the story should always be secondary to moral concerns, at least when it comes to children. Problematic storeis just shouldn't be published, IMO.

Reset the Era to middle ages.

I do find it a bit unfortunate that there can be no actual debate about this kind of censorship here, as disagreeing with the removal would violate ResetEra rules, but it is kind of nice to not have to deal with those kinds of people on here. Most of them are probably pedos, lol.

"Censorship a bit unfortunate" says man arguing in favour of censorship.

Guerrilla Games missed a real opportunity to have Aloy on crutches

This is such an obnoxious example of performative wokeness.
People don't want to play an escapist videogame where you are prevented from doing things NPCs take for granted and basic actions are a burdensome struggle.
No, not even disabled people want to play that as escapism. Because they fucking live that.

If you give a kid in a wheelchair a choice of a videogame to play, they're gonna pick something where they can run around unrestricted, not something where they get hardblocked from going somewhere because theres stairs not a ramp.

No because most states and countries don't have laws against jacking it to drawn kids.

Not excusing it before someone jumps down my throat. I'm categorically against it but sadly Japanese culture allows for it/ignores it so we get a lot of that crap from there.

Most countries don’t have a law against because is a waste of resources to get people in jail because of that.

It's a real shame that pushes for banning this content in Japan fell through because manga artists cried about freedom of expression. I hope the topic gets brought up again and this stuff is actually made illegal.
Cultivation theory is a thing. A lot of this stuff is inseparable from anime and considering a lot of people get into anime from a young age so it's normalized for them as they grow up. This leads to people getting outraged over "muh censorship" because to them this content really isn't a big deal.
But that's the problem. It is a big deal and a lot of people don't realise it.

Is to bad that the push that banning this content only made owning actual CP ilegal in Japan. 

Maybe that push should have been directed to actual CP and child exploitation?

Really enjoyed Horizon and liked Alloy as a lead a lot.

But maybe it's just me, but there seems to be plenty of female games this gen and last. And multiplayer games seem to give equal attention and representation to the female characters. Sure there's plenty to progress and improve on, but I don't think it's actually that bad.

It's this strange thing where they have to erase past successes in order to prop up the new one. So many talking about how amazing it is to have a female led AAA franchise, completely forgetting about Lara Croft.

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

I believe the adage "No smoke without fire" to not only be false, but also ultimately harmful.

But holy fuck there's a lot of smoke about MJ. Can't see or breathe from all that fucking smoke. Its everywhere. And its not helped by a bunch of sycophants whose livelihood depends on there not being any fire telling you for a fact theres no fucking smoke at all, you're just imagining it, the airs completely normal.

Ok, so a post like this gets a user banned for a week:

It means that GAF 'before imploding mod team' would surely took more drastic measures over this incident regarding THQ.

But using slurs like "distinguished mentally-challenged fellow", using dog whistle tactics to defend anti-LGBTQ beliefs, and excusing sexism in games is either a "warning" or a 1-day ban?

This isn't the best look mods, and I expect better from a site that wants to be progressive.

This isn't very accurate, Waddle Dee. Most of what you've described here isn't how we moderate content, especially when it comes to excusing sexism and anything anti-LGBTQ. There may have been a small amount of actions like that when we launched the site, but our moderation practices and policy quickly evolved and will continue to as needed. Please remember that most bans take into account a users infraction history, and if you have further concerns with moderation actions to contact a moderator captain instead of derailing a thread (check the active staff roster for who to contact). Thank you.

TFW you really want to link to resetbanbot analytics to show how over zealous your moderation actually is, and how long and for what bullshit reasons people get banned on a daily fucking basis, but you can't because transparency

The crazy thing is the reasoning they use is just exacerbating their problems.

"My family treated me poorly and it really messed me up, so who cares about family."

Family not caring for or about each other causes people to be messed up, so family shouldn't care for or about each other...

Like, dudes, the fact that having a crappy family messed you up so hard is evidence of how important treating family well is, not the opposite.
