Do we know if these new mods are actually different people and not Evilore's multiple alts?

It'll be immediately locked because of where the information came from. Also, ERA is not in the mood to throw a "good ally" under the bus for past internet activity post-Gunn. Can't let the cyber-Nazis get another win!

That thread is amazing. Especially the mods being like

(Image removed from quote.)
Someone needs to up the violence

"Yeah beat that bitch woooo"

"Hit her with sticks"

"They should've thrown her in front of the bus and put it in reverse a couple of times  :smug"

Or did you mean the other thread

So many good threads  :delicious

The good people in Resetera tend to think moderation is mostly fine, there is no favoritism between users and Alison Rapp wasn’t moonlighting as a prostitute and that’s a big lie by gators.

It is against the rules to vilify (or embarrass) journalists (who ResetEra likes). Patrick is also a user on the site, making the thread also against the rules on those grounds. ResetEra mods would be totally consistent with locking that thread and banning the OP.

It should be clear that ResetEra is not a forum where serious industry discussion can take place, by their own rules.

Idk how deaf this website is when it comes out the various tones of each thread. I supported the White Woman defending her dignity. Why is the Black Woman not offered the same ability to defend her dignity?

We really have a bunch of trolls purposefully stirring shit in this thread and this BOARD DOES NOTHING.

You keep telling us to report shit, and report that. You ban the trash for a few days and they come right back and post the same shit in the next thread.

The Modertation Style here is garbage. ResetERA is 100% complicit in allowing racists and sexists to thrive on the board as long as they aren't explicit.

You're entirely too focused on usercounts. Willing to excuse the behavior to keep any mass amount posters from leaving, no matter how shitty they are.

Did Inferno teach them nothing?

Lol the mods are gonna give him a pass aren't they?

Thread locked. No warning or ban even when almost every other user that shits on moderation like this gets curbed :heh

You can be against racism and understand the pain of intolerance, know the full history behind the word 'distinguished black fellow,' and also feel that violent problem solving is not the answer. To treat these feelings as mutually exclusive is needlessly divisive and is creating a thread environment where no productive discussion can happen. Be receptive to others and respect the full spectrum of feeling people may have towards this incident.

They will pull an Amirox and pretend nothing is happening unless it blows up. And if it blows up they will pretend that people were not fawning for him and his dead website.

And it is not going to blow up because what he did is just hilariously hypocritical at worst (like a ex-junkie new born Christian getting mad at drug addicts being irremediable scumbags corrupting the world). Unless there is something worse that cannot be obfuscated, the only thing we can say is “Patrick Klepeck is a disingenuous prick.

Given it was Royalan the one doing it, probably Cerium forced him to close the thread and in exchange of not banning everyone in BCT he should be the fall guy.

ResetERA is made up of users who for years played down any rumour/allegation about Tyler's past. What makes you think they're going to give a shit about what Patrick got up to when he was younger? Even so, the response from many of them is going to be "he was young and he has shown he is no longer that type of person.", which is their go-to when someone or something they like is under attack.

It will definitely take some team work to frame it “correctly” in a way that makes it obvious you aren’t posting the thread in bad faith. Definitely gonna require some name drops of former allies that turned out to be creeps like Nick Robinson and the Keebler elf. Who’s creating the google doc?

"He isn't being harassed enough!" This reminds of when Waypoint complained that the enemies in Far Cry 5 are too diverse. The OP also ignores that Filip has said that he and his family are being harassed.

There was an industry leak by one of Patrick's friends/associates, on NeoGAF, by the friend/associate. Being it happened on NeoGAF, obviously the press picked up on it, and after it became a major story and the person's job was in jeopardy for leaking the info, Patrick PMed me asking if all the evidence could be deleted.

I refused, since it was already disseminated everywhere and served no practical purpose anymore to delete it from NeoGAF specifically. Despite asking ahead of time, he hard deleted all the related posts he could find from the database, and I kicked him out for it.

Probably some kind of breach of """""ethics""""" on his part since afaik he was a games journalist at the time. I can probably produce the associated PMs from when I fired him if this is some kind of actual relevant story. I didn't really hold it against him personally since it was about loyalty to an alleged friend and I respected that but the conflict of interest was intense and highly inappropriate.

Since era seems mostly done kicking filip's dead corpse maybe Patrick will become the next public flogging

Noone is gonna make that thread because it will get locked instantly. One of 'them' getting attacked? Never
It will definitely take some team work to frame it “correctly” in a way that makes it obvious you aren’t posting the thread in bad faith. Definitely gonna require some name drops of former allies that turned out to be creeps like Nick Robinson and the Keebler elf. Who’s creating the google doc?
