Just why, oh why would someone feel the need to lie instead of owning up? Could it be that 99% of the time people respond with "fuck your apology"?

And about that post Huelen was replying to...

Quote from: TuturuJones, post: 7211779, member: 28059
I have to disagree really hard. I was daily in 4chan for more than 10 years and all the negativity, constant insults and just plain hate will really screw with your head. It made me insecure about my height, my skin color, my nationality, my intelligence, my education and pretty much everything related to my existence. I was depressed all throught high school and college and went through a ton of phases where I hated whatever was popular to hate on the site at the time.

It wasn't until therapy when I realized how toxic it was and stopped cold turkey going to the site, having to block it from all my browsers because I would subconsciously just open the site. It's been two years now since I stopped going there and my life has improved dramatically and I really couldn't be happier with life right now.

The site is poison for young minds, which sadly is the main audience it for it.

4chan is solely to blame for his depression?  :doge

proud gay hispanic pretending to be black? didn't know tekashi69 posts on reset.

but that reminds me of the dude many years ago who posted a few times in one of the black culture threads as a black dude, fairly innocuously, and had elsewhere on gaf talked about being an irish guy (no this is not a subliminal at irishninja)... was hilarious when he was caught.

Is this really a big deal?

https://www.resetera.com/threads/joy-reid-homophobic-blog-posts-potentially-hacked.38485/

Basically the blog post says that to a lot of straight people gay sex is gross. Not that homosexuality is wrong, just that some people are uncomfortable watching gay sex.

In my mind, so fucking what? There are a lot of people out there, gay or straight, that find watching fat people have sex is gross. So what.

There's really no hope if you've been targeted. It is best to own up, but you better plan to say fuck off, too. I am not sure she wanted to go that far.

I thought she insinuated that gay men "recruit" young boys into homosexuality.

That's probably worthy of excoriating her.

This reminds me of Jonathan Haidt actually. He was investigated for homophobia after one of his students complained about video shown in his classroom. He was doing a lecture about disgust I think. In the video one of the people talked about finding gay sex disgusting. Again not that the person thought homosexuality was wrong, just that he couldn't watch gay sex.

I had a short debate with someone on GAF about this. For hetero people, a gay couple kissing can trigger a revolt response. Their parents kissing might trigger a revolt response. It's partially their sexuality and their exposure level to homosexuality. Honestly, seeing anyone passionately kiss in real life feels like an invasion of privacy on my part.

It’s definitely a bigger deal that she lied than the actual statement.

Now she can’t really even own up to it. She’s got to see it through and hope it goes ok, because she can’t really go back now and be like “oh, ok, I actually did write that, and then hired a white supremacist fake security expert to bolster my case, and filed a fake case with the fbi (or pretended to file a case with the fbi), so sorrry, I have changed now!”

I think this is probably the end for her off of AM radio (or as a Fox News resident democrat). That’s fine with me because I really don’t like Joy reid. She basically practices the worst kind of identity politics.

How is there nothing about old people saliva in this site's TOS? Honestly, this site needs a TOS, specifically so restrictions on depicting the sexuality of old people can be added.

Erm... Posted because I knew it would gross people out, and I found that amusing.

In terms of the whole false equivalence thing...Doesn't it all boil down to sexual taste and preference at the end of the day? What one person finds attractive another person might not? The difference here is just the extremity. It is just an example that most will obviously agree upon.

Right. And someone else stated she said things worse than that. My initial comment was the specific thing posted in that thread. Whether feeling uncomfortable watching gay sex makes you homophobic. I personally think that a large part of it is down to sexual taste and preference. Ultimately what really counts is whether or not you treat gay people as human beings.

User Warned: Don't peddle conspiracy theories on the forum.

Thats... debatable, we have no idea how much the first Xenoblade sold, as in the region it sold the most in, gamestop fudged the shipment numbers after the first shipment so they could sell 'used' games at 90 dollars a pop instead of new games at 60. The game was so hard to find, and thought for so long to not even be coming stateside, it's piracy rate of well over a million puts it in the category of one of the most pirated games of all time, at a quarter of modern warfare 2 at the top of the list, which sits at 4 million. Anyone want to compare popularity levels behind one of the biggest call of dutys and a Japanese rpg on 'The fucking two gamecube duct taped together' system?

As for the sales, Whether or not that is actually impressive depends on what the numbers are.

A game that sells 10 copies sold 10x more than it's predecessor that only sold one, but that' not really worth much.

Of course there isn't a single person at Nintendo who has any idea what Xonoblade could be selling.

There wasnt a single person working at Nintendo who had any idea what xenoblade was, what they had, or who expected Xenoblade to ever sell period with the first game.

It's almost like we had to have an entire campaign calling Nintendo out on their clueless out of touch shit to even get the game, And Nintendo being complete fuckups left money all over the table.

It's hilarious that the whole reason anyone, ANYONE in na can even be a fan of xenoblade in the first place is because of people not being corporate worshippers, and pointing out Nintendo dropped the ball....

And then you look at this.

Nintendo just xenobladed again.

The first sentence?  Gamestop fudging shipment numbers to sell used games.

But that's completely true. Only takes a quick Google search to verify.

User Warned: Don't peddle conspiracy theories on the forum.

Thats... debatable, we have no idea how much the first Xenoblade sold, as in the region it sold the most in, gamestop fudged the shipment numbers after the first shipment so they could sell 'used' games at 90 dollars a pop instead of new games at 60. The game was so hard to find, and thought for so long to not even be coming stateside, it's piracy rate of well over a million puts it in the category of one of the most pirated games of all time, at a quarter of modern warfare 2 at the top of the list, which sits at 4 million. Anyone want to compare popularity levels behind one of the biggest call of dutys and a Japanese rpg on 'The fucking two gamecube duct taped together' system?

As for the sales, Whether or not that is actually impressive depends on what the numbers are.

A game that sells 10 copies sold 10x more than it's predecessor that only sold one, but that' not really worth much.

Of course there isn't a single person at Nintendo who has any idea what Xonoblade could be selling.

There wasnt a single person working at Nintendo who had any idea what xenoblade was, what they had, or who expected Xenoblade to ever sell period with the first game.

It's almost like we had to have an entire campaign calling Nintendo out on their clueless out of touch shit to even get the game, And Nintendo being complete fuckups left money all over the table.

It's hilarious that the whole reason anyone, ANYONE in na can even be a fan of xenoblade in the first place is because of people not being corporate worshippers, and pointing out Nintendo dropped the ball....

And then you look at this.

Nintendo just xenobladed again.

I don't get what the moderators think was conspiratorial about this post?

Resetera has Nintendrone roots, and people started to forget Nintendo flaws during the Wii when the WiiU dropped the ball.

The first sentence?  Gamestop fudging shipment numbers to sell used games.

But that's completely true. Only takes a quick Google search to verify.

One GameStop source tells us the retailer printed a few thousand copies of the game with no shrink wrap in order to restock their inventory, then labeled them as pre-owned.

Yes, GameStop had Wii game printing machines, and printed it's own pirated copies to sell as used!

Nice detective work Jason Schreirer, your source is immaculate.

It was a Gamestop exclusive in NA, I'm pretty sure they just ordered another shipment.

Xenoblade 1 was a GameStop exclusive in the US.

That's not what he meant, Gamestop was buying copies at the retailer price and then was opening them to make them 'pre-owned' and allow them to charge more per copy. They've done this before with niche games.

Gamestop was also the only retailer you could buy this game at, which was another problem.
