Reee more influential than Reddit? What? Show me the thread on Reee where President Obama signed up to do an AMA. What threads on Reee get turned into anything of cultural significance like they do on Reddit or even 4chan. GAF at least made it into a few video games and was the highest referrer to the Clinton website, Reee has NONE of that. What a bunch of losers.

I think they mean in regard to gaming? Which even then is debatable. Reddit has some massive gaming communities. I’d say most subreddits for games outlive/are more popular than their RE OTs.

Ratatata thinking that they have more "influence" than Reddit or 4chan is a bit like the folks on GAF who thought the place was actively targeted by russian agents.

It was, I'm willing to share the evidence with the ResetEra mod-team because most of those Russian agents actually migrated to the new place and left NeoGAF.

Russian agents...

The hot kind?

[stufte]

I actually feel like they're doxxing US.

[Nintex]

I actually feel like they're doxxing US.

Don't worry they only target developers.

[BisMarckie]

I'm just surprised that people who would do this kind of thing have active accounts over here and it's known? Why would mods allow for that? There can be no discussion had with these people if they are actively trying to harass and dox folks over here and generally sew discord.

Why?
The Bore's user base has been proven to be extremly open for marketing. YUM! Brands probably paid a fortune for our user data on ResetEra.

ACTIONING incoming: Legitimizing "reverse racism/sexism" history of similar behavior.

[Averon]

I just don't understand what these people want. They want a liberal echo chamber? GAF were and ERA is exactly that. Want to make their own forum away from shower elf? They have that. Ban people for wrong think? That happens on the regular.

They got exactly what they want and are still unhappy. Is the mere presence of a contrasting opinion bothers them THAT much? It is not like that people with those contrasting opinions won't get banned soon anyway. So what is the problem?

[benjipwns]

I've seen women posters every other week tell me they're done being here because misogyny is flying around like pancakes at a fundraiser, but since it's coded or wrapped in a thinly woven veneer of 'D E C O R U M' their only option is to just leave because their PMs get ignored or they get infracted for callling out obvious JAQers.

Incoming ban

The whole point of a forum is to get different perspectives in one place. I welcome voicing these sorts of opinions, but I also don't think it's fair to expect compliance.

For example, I understood what you were saying about the term "females," but I also think it's incorrect and petty. That isn't because I don't share a concern for the influence that language has on the way we think, nor is it because I actually call women "females" (because I'm not a fuckboy who time traveled here from 2003), so this is about neither about defensiveness nor progressive values, it's because I heard you and found your argument unconvincing.

There's an odd thing people do where they describe people disagreeing with them as "silencing" them. I'm not sure where that comes from. I haven't seen any evidence that anyone wants to silence you, but you can't just show up with a weakly defended position, refuse to hear another side, and then get upset that people don't fall in line. This isn't how life works.

The sneaky fucking russians kind.

It was pretty interesting to talk with some kid from St. Petersburg over PM and have him open up about what they were doing.
The pay was pretty lousy though but he could use his PC to play games at work while he was waiting for people to respond to his bait.
He actually wanted to get into the graphics department though, much better pay there he said and he was more of a creative type.

The Facebook side of things was the worst because there wasn't any 'interaction' after posting.
You just had to spam shitty memes and images on Clinton/Trump all day. He said they had a tough time recruiting enough people to do that for more than a week.

[BisMarckie]

What the hell is a JAQer?

[BisMarckie]

I'm fairly sure I was banned by Evilore for complaining about a Sarkeesian thread title change that mocked her opinion of Fury Road.

OP, you've got this idea of what the word progressive means, but guess what? Not everyone is required to hold the exact same world view as you.

wow, this dude is totally silencing the OP, hope its a perm ban

Look out guys, you ain't slick!

[benjipwns]

I guess I'm trying to understand the goal here. Is the general consensus that this forum isn't progressive enough, so we should prune it's membership until it is, or that the general population isn't progressive enough so we should take action until it is?

If the later, what should we do about it?

SHUT. UP. AND. LISTEN.

do better men

Use the term "obnoxious samey sounding bad faith posts" unironically.

Pigeon stanning for NEOGAF moderators

I see no evidence of this. Maybe you’re just biased because you got banned or something.

Kristoffer, thoughts?

[benjipwns]

Why the fuck are people literally just quoting a drive-by post without adding literally a single character to the conversation? Thanks for further populating my ignore list I suppose. Jesus.

[agrajag]

They really need a purge of the bad faith disingenuous gross russian trolls who obnoxiously use samey alt-right dogwhistles like female, and other such problematic things, I mean this is the hill they wanted to die on, maybe there can be some sort of auto-action for dissident opinions. Get on the right side of history, mods.

[benjipwns]

Yep. TONS of women have just straight-up left because they're sick and tired of the bullshit. Me, personally, I tend to avoid a vast majority of the forum at this point and stick only to a handful of threads I follow.

Especially when it comes to anything handling politics or minority issues, I already know that I'm not going to enjoy my time in those threads. That's not a good look.

[james]

My thought is that you're really salty about your ban but you probably deserved it.

Was this post worth a perm?

They really need to start working on the safe-space sub-forum ASAP.

[benjipwns]

I'd argue it's worse for being misogynistic. Transmisogynistic? idk if that's a term that's been used, i'm just trying to combine the two. My point is there was a LOT more empathy in the thread about trans men then we'll ever see in a thread about trans women.

i think i really hate myself right now

[agrajag]

transmisogynistic is a good one

[agrajag]

transmisogynistic is a good one

wait, if you're transmisogynistic, wouldn't that mean that you accept them as women? Marrec, as the resident transphobe, please explain.

[james]

It's not, which is why the poster isn't permed. You ain't slick, son.

WRONG

Based Evilore corrected this horrible wrong

[BisMarckie]

You're the exact picture of the problem. You, specifically, and anyone who thinks like you.

Your lack of empathy is astounding. I am at a loss for words.

aha! we found him! mods, action him and we can lock this thread and call it another successful day

[BisMarckie]

If the allegations of people doxxing and harrassing women on this forum are concrete, then that makes the disgenous 'people are trying to silence me for trying to have a reasonable debate' crowd look even more tone-deaf, which I didn't even know was possible.

Woah, if true.

[benjipwns]

Thanks for voicing out your concerns. As a male, there are obvious privileges I get to enjoy and that means I don't get to experience the same problems that women do. Thus, I didn't notice these problems before on ERA (and probably on other communities in the internet as well). I will try to watch out more for the problems you voiced and try not to repeat the same mistakes.

these dudes breh

[agrajag]

So, about this safe-space forum. Do they want an on-duty mod monitoring it 24/7? I hope they know the mods aren't getting paid for this.

[benjipwns]

Quoting all of this because we have TO BEAR THIS SHIT CONSTANTLY.

The Pryce/ArenaNet firing thread
Trans threads like the Rub and Tug one
The Trump/Putin homophobia thread
The James Gunn thread
The COD guy dumping his girlfriend
The DQ Sugiyama thread
Any black crime thread

And those are just a few examples. It’s always the same goddamn thing, where it’s usually straight men literally stomping out conversation by minorities to throt their talking points!

This is something that needs to be discussed. Pinpointed and stomped out.

wow, place sounds terrible, glad i don't have an account there

I was originally going to post something a little more risque, but I don't want to face TVC or nudemac type scorn from Borkbork

[BisMarckie]

Gaslighting is not really conducive to good faith conversations and is pretty reflective of the entire premise of this thread

https://www.resetera.com/posts/10746083/

[agrajag]

We need a safe-space subforum ASAP, I am literally shaking from all the milkshake ducks gaslighting me with russian dogwhistles

 

[benjipwns]

i like how the mods are actioning people in this thread but not one of them has posted anything in response

[benjipwns]

Like, I dont care about the wart in your ass or the STD from your ex, and frankly you probably shouldn't post detailed accounts of your threesome with a thousand strangers.

wow, i literally can't even, and ERA claims to be progressive

[benjipwns]

Actually?

From my observation, this community is very much in favour of universal health care and free education.

THAT

Problem with "Leftists" is that it's basically everything that stands against right wingers, these days. Since moderates are mostly complicit with their both sides bullshit.

Real Socialism is all about safe-spaces on gaming splinter forums.

[benjipwns]

they should make a safe space subforum for every member where they and only they can post, that way others are forced to SHUT UP AND LISTEN

[EightBitNate]

[benjipwns]

... do we actually need primers on what goddamn socialism is and means... ?

I can't even.. :/

[benjipwns]

I also tend to avoid certains topics because I know I'll be disappointed and disgusted by some replies. I'm just wondering why is it allowed to continue without harsher consequences.

yes, why aren't the mods stopping bad things permanently

[benjipwns]

women are not a problem, go fuck yourself shostakovich until you learn to shut up and listen you transmisogynist piece of shit

now i'm starting to question whether this thread is actually going to solve Era's Woman Problem (Read OP)

I love that one of the things that triggered them is that men had the gall to disagree that they lack empathy. HOW CAN THE MODS NOT SEE THIS BLATANT MISOGYNY?? WHY DID THOSE MEN MAKE THAT THREAD ABOUT THEMSELVES???
