If they are over turning permas maybe, just maybe, there is something wrong with the person issuing said bans? lol

What’s this about now? Whose perm got overturned?

https://www.neogaf.com/threads/revisiting-when-the-left-turns-on-its-own-from-back-in-june-2017-and-healing-neogaf-off-topic-in-2018.1460712/page-17#post-253218529

He tried to contact multiple people and Zhuge reversed Sweet Nicole's perma ban.

https://www.resetera.com/posts/5901215/

the post he got banned for is fucking ridiculous. being called transphobic and banned for suggesting people not intentionally expose themselves to the worst humanity has to offer for their own peace of mind. there's not a shred of malice in any of his posts, maybe naivety at worst.

then again I guess saying "maybe don't search out things to be outraged at" kind of flies in the face of era's unofficial purpose, so fuck it, ban the dude, "thread has run its course"

edit: I'm sure I'm repeating what people have already said but I bailed out of that last thread when it turned into whatever dogshit that was

bronsonlee's post (#3) is actually great

but seriously if there's once place where you should believe any horror story no matter what it's within the management of the Atlanta Hawks franchise, if it wasn't for the Nets, they'd be the Clippers East

Era wants to have their cake and eat it too and we’re all getting sick of it. Bunch of people flipping out over the site being too heavily moderated, meanwhile just as many of us pissed and shitting on the mods for just giving pointless bans of a couple days of a week to people saying blatantly bigoted bullshit.

We keep telling them if we’re gonna have the reputation of being a crazy SJW echo chamber the least we could do is fucking act like it, not half-ass it, and make the forum comfortable for the people who have to deal with this.

Or if Era refuses to get rid of these people, then let us freely shit on them! The report system is failing due to mod incompetence and regardless of which side you are on, everyone is pissed.

The trouble with conspiracy theories is that at least a couple are probably true but the evidence is lost to time. I always found that very sad.

Anyone else get the feeling Ben and Abby were random CBS interns hired for nepotistic reasons by Jews at CBS, and they got dumped on Giant Bomb?

I mean, GB seems like it would be an extremely easy job for a lot of seasoned gamers. They probably get inundated with resumes from people all the fucking time. I just think it's weird that a couple of kikes would get hired simultaneously. And for it to be Ben and Abby, what are the odds those two would get the gig over other all those other more personable and qualified applicants?

Something tells me that they were already hired by some hooknosed HR person at CBS, and then someone at CBS was like, "You know, that weird video game thingy we bought isn't Jewish enough for my liking" and forced Giant Bomb to take them in. Ben seems like he's borderline distinguished mentally-challenged and Abby probably never touched a controller in her life, but that wouldn't matter to the suits, and they just come off as being exactly the type of people that got shoehorned into somewhere they don't belong because reasons.

In fact I bet Giant Bomb agreed to offload its staffing onto CBS's HR department as part of being bought, and knowing the ridiculous over-representation of heebs in the mainstream media, those two really activate the ol' almonds.

Obviously will race be some factor, but isn't it also pretty obvious that the protest that goes directly after the police will have a harder time with the public?

it's true, and just about every hire on the west side has been white dudes Jeff knows and Dan was like the only hire that turned out good

abby is good if just for the generational gap and different perspective, although when she tries to say anything clever the rest of the crew halts the momentum of the conversation to point it out and it sucks every time.

Abby is legitimately funny, she just doesn't know shit about vidya which matters if you take games seriously I guess. Austin was also okay he just wouldn't stfu about his college shit for like 3 months after he got hired.

How many bans has this been for Duckroll now? The guy always acted like a stuck up asshole.

I remember a few years back Atra and someone else were investigating Duckroll as the possible pedophile GAF mod. Of course it turns out now they had identified the wrong person and should have been going after Amir0x. I do wonder if he has any skeletons in his closet though.

Glenn/Green Shenobi. He had this SEETHING conviction that Duckroll was a pedo.

It's because they're playing it wrong.

Nintendo added more content to these games so they'd last a bit longer in shorter game sessions on the go.
Play the main story and then boot up the game from time to time to get some moons.

It was never designed to sink a 100 hours on end in it.

When you play the same game day in day out sure, you get bored.  :doge

Nah, Ben and Abby can be funny when they dial down the obnoxious, is cute with Dan because seems genuine even when is not. They are better when they just act like themselves than having some word quirk (Abby is a fangirl and Ben always say the wrong information: Funny!). Thank god they buried that Dating Sim troll bait feature, they really wanted to push a bad joke to its limits.

Austin was okay, and he could be great if he just forgets the college activism stuff and trying to have his niche of woke followers. But Waypoint happened so he only doubling it down, what a waste.

Moderation def lacks the teeth of the old forum though that seems to be by design at this point. Which is admittedly a tad confusing, given some of the current mods were the ones fighting for various marginalized groups at the old forum, but I assume they don't actually get to dictate policy here.

As for trans issue themselves it's the usual mix of fear/hate, and ppl not knowing about sex/gender differences in general. People also tend to only empathize with groups of people they know well, or are a member of.

This forum also has a tendency to be contrarian or for ppl to feel the need to play devil's advocate for some reason, no matter the topic.
I've had a couple of threads shut down by mods simply because a particular mod didn't the post. These threads contained no arguing but just to kill the thread. That's poor moderation.

If the thread makes people sad or possibly angry, they want to shut down discourse.

Threads such as:
Gun violence
Racism
Police Treatment.
Etc.

They don't want cages rattled to keep whoever happy.
