Dude banned one week for posting a fail vid where everyone thinks the person died

https://www.resetera.com/threads/guy-jumps-from-balcony-into-pool-and-misses.53352/

Absolutely do not make threads meant to shock and disgust others or mock people for injuries or death.

No more Nazi punching vids

[cosmicblizzard]

awww the restera ban site is gone

hope it's only temporarily

From a certain site:

ResetEra filed a trademark notice against GitHub, who gave it to me. I didn't see it until I saw the site go down. New site, with a non-trademark infringing username:

https://resetbanbot.github.io/

I do not believe the contents of the website itself creates any sort of market place confusion, and is clearly labeled a ban bot aggregator with direct links to the original content. Perhaps I will add "unofficial" or "fan-made" to the page.

Direct from ResetEra Inc.

The reported account is infringing on our trademark by posing as an official aggregator of content from our website. Their repos contain anti-semitic content (as seen in the upper left) which is highly damaging to our trademark and brand. Additionally, their repos and account were expressly created for the purpose of tarnishing the image of ResetEra, LLC.

(The "anti-semitic content" was a star of David the creator put there because he is Jewish and it's in protest of actual Nazis)

I've established a backup, non-GitHub host: https://reeera.neocities.org/
Neocities will be regularly updated, but the updates will be delayed behind the GitHub primary site due to the nature of how they accept automatic uploads.

The bot will self-archive the posts page after updates:
https://archive.fo/https://resetbanbot.github.io/*
https://archive.fo/https://reeera.neocities.org/*
https://web.archive.org/web/*/https://resetbanbot.github.io/posts/
https://web.archive.org/web/*/https://reeera.neocities.org/posts/

Neocities supposedly will automatically pin the site in IPFS, but it hasn't generated me a hash, yet.

Finally, I created a PGP key and a Pastebin for ULTIMATE DAMAGE CONTROL.

Other info:

Thanks to some graphs, we know the following:

* While they've maintained some pretty steady userbasing and traffic, this is a mere shred of the traffic they had when ResetERA got started. At current, the site's traffic and income is about one quarter what it was in October 2017. The actual consistent traffic fluctuates, but generally is about 20-40% of that number. As of July 4th, 2018, they have fewer hits per page than they ever have.

* Alexa shows some surprisingly positive results for them, but solely because they've only really been audited once, about three months ago, long after the free-fall plummet from October of 2017, and as such it looks like a straight line with the usual minor fluctuations until recently.

* Critically, Alexa's data shows that they bleed about 1500 users a month, presumably divided between banhammer recipients, dead accounts getting removed from the calculations, and so on. The account fluctuation seems to be coming from how well they're able to offset the bleed or not at the end of a given month.

* Fittingly, the site's reach is in a free-fall plummet and is currently in the midst of an all-time low.

* This is despite a significant increase in ranking in search results due to them being piped by friendly sites (Siliconera, Destructoid, Kotaku, etc). Over 70% of the traffic to ResetEra is via such piping (direct links on other sites), with Social Media accounting for less than 7% of its traffic and affiliate links barely over 2%. Somehow this has resulted in there being substantially more pageviews, but less pageviews per user. Predictably the time range for users on the site is also fucking awful.

Conclusions: ResetEra isn't doing so well. It's been having increasingly shrinking reach despite considerably improved traffic to the site, and that has a lot to do with its insane moderator staff chasing off anyone who dares show critical thought or an understanding of causality. Basically every other gaming site is doing better, with even NeoGAF doing better despite dramatically slashed numbers.

How the hell is Gaf doing better?  In terms of growth?  I mean unless something catastrophic happens, I imagine Gaf's ceiling is still lower than Era's floor.  But hey, I'd be all for being proven wrong.

Banning people like SmokyDave and Amazon Tony just showed that Evilore was a cunt who hated when a poster was more well liked than him

Eh, my ban was deserved. I should’ve articulated my frustrations better or just walked away.

apparently not deserved?

What does "he's been visiting recently" mean?  Has EL been keeping track of the IP addresses of every single guest and then cross-referencing them with old records of member IP addresses? 0_o

For real. When I see my psychiatrist tomorrow I’m telling him that I want to love something, anything, as much as people love Star Wars. And then I’ll show him that twitter thread.

[nudemacusers]

Lmao this amber heard thread

If she really wants to make amends, she should get her ass out there and protest this checkpoint.

Over this past weekend, Heard had joined other celebrities like Connie Britton, Joshua Jackson, Lena Dunham, Bella Thorne, Sia, Mira Sorvino, Rob Reiner, and Constance Wu to protest family separations at the border. As BuzzFeed reported, they stood outside the Tornillo detention center in Texas, where children are housed in tents. The protest was organized by Voto Latino.

This was not a joke, this is the only way that many many out of touch rich people in LA ever come into contact with immigrants. Further proof that celebrities are not the best people to spearhead social change.

You have no idea what you are talking about. I'm a Peruvian immigrant and live in Los Angeles and the reality of LA is the majority of jobs described are filled by brown folk like me and that is across the class board. Also none of the jobs described are anything to denigrate or be ashamed of. I worked landscaping for two years to help put myself through college. I worked for 7 years as a Director of Architectural firm in West Hollywood so all I did was interact with these people like this on the day to day. Great people, hardworking, many undocumented who are providing for their families. Because of their status these are the jobs they can get. You really shouldn't talk about thibgs wihtout familiarity.

And they say performative wokeness isn’t a thing.

idk why he thinks posting those DMs is a good idea. i have no idea of the context of who any of these other people are, but it's odd that someone who considers themselves super-progressive is trumpeting how proud they are of themselves for trying to gaslight a star wars podcaster into retirement. what normal person is going to look at that an think 'oh, this is a mature and even tempered person i want to be around and interact with'

[D3RANG3D]

Because I hate myself I dug through the rebel force twitter, saw nothing but lame online nerd drama crossing over into reality and now I feel much less cooler than I did 10 minutes ago.

close enough. i honestly don't remember shit from rogue one so i don't know where i'd rank it without a rewatch and that's not gonna happen.

Rogue One's got a really messy first act, a decent enough but mostly unremarkable second act, and a pretty good final act. Better than any of the PT, but wouldn't put it above any of the other Star Wars movies.

[paprikastaude]

Rogue One is like a 15 yo edgelord's fanfic take on a series that's supposed to be a fairy tale adventure. I.e. the Shadow the Hedgehog of the franchise.

I disagree, mod. Ep1 and Ep3 are better simply by virtue of being competently made movies. That first act of Rogue One is a disaster, and there’s no way Disney didn’t know it when they shoved it out the door. It is poorly made. It is nearly narratively incoherent. If the whole movie was as bad as the first act, it would be way way way below Ep2 in quality.

The second act is also bad, but mainly because it’s boring and feels pointless because there was no build-up because the first act made as much sense as trying to read a word search puzzle as a paragraph.

The third act, though, is really good. Good enough to fool rubes into thinking they didn’t just witness a near-complete disaster.

Rogue One is terrible. The first act is (significantly) worse than anything in Ep2. I laugh when I see morons say it’s the best of the Disney films (which seems to happen pretty frequently). You can tell where there’s still lead paint by pinpointing their location on a map.

Star Wars 1977:Rogue One::Transformers 1986:Transformers The Last Knight aka both shit but one lacks nostalgia goggles

Transformers 86 has Orson Welles, this making it immediately better than all the other shitty movies in either of those franchises.

The third act was good until everyone started dying in a way that felt more comical than poignant.

Sure everyone is just joking around, none of us would like post 50 posts per day or something to bring activity back to GAF, it's not like we're desperate to go back.


maybe like 34 posts

Evilore unban me and I’ll get at least three people to sign up for gaf gold

Btw I wonder how reset gold is doing

[BlueTsunami]

Former GAF was all about its communities. Being able to jump in various threads and have well versed people already interacting. GAF now feels like a sausage fest and not even a new sausage fest where the glimmer of a circle jerk is enticing. Its an old sausage fest, the type of sausage fest where the group has been farting for five hours after eating too many slices of dominos and you just eant to go home already.

They were so quick to tone police and virtue signal how problematic the word 'bitch' is that they completely missed that the OP is a women. 
Or maybe that doesn't matter and they see the OP as having 'internalized misogyny'.
