That Serena thread is now slick on slick violence.

[stufte]

Era suddenly Tennis experts 😂

No.

But what would people have done if one white kid and one black kid are friends and their Halloween idea would be each other. Would I allow the white kid to have blackface if he asked me "paint black color on my face, I want to look like my friends so we can confuse people". I actually have no idea right no what I would have done.

Four thousand posts and you'd think they'd know where not to go

[nudemacusers]

Well you have a lot of time to get smart on tennis when you don’t vote. 

[stufte]

Oh sweet noted tennis expert excel sheet has joined the thread!

[Transhuman]

Is it okay to do blackface if your Halloween costume is Jesus?

I think Jesus would forgive me

[EightBitNate]

Oh sweet noted tennis expert excel sheet has joined the thread!

And she’s been called out by someone of being a sexist. RIP to that member.

[agrajag]

Isn't it great to be able to point and laugh at Era's insanity from a safe distance?

 

[clothedmacuser]

I see Diet Racism is still a popular refreshment. And the reason people are asking if those dismissing this are white males is fucking obvious.

We see you, y'all ain't slick.

Yikes the hyperbole is off the charts here.. "a disgrace" ... "sports villainy" nice dogwhistles, I guess..

What happened to “I’m done with Resetera”, Jack?

[team filler]

sometimes you are done with resetera, but resetera is not done with you.

[agrajag]

You can take Jack out of Reeee, but you can't take the Reeee out of Jack 

[nudemacusers]

How can you call Serena Williams’ behavior a meltdown worthy of a $17K fine when Aaron Hernandez killed someone and never got fined at all?

Stay tuned for other absurd hyperbolic comparisons that have no basis in reality 👌

[agrajag]

Some brave Reeetards are now posting counter examples of male tennis players being called out for melting down 

[nudemacusers]

Not sure why anyone is bothering you’re arguing with pretzels at this point.

[team filler]

that blasian tennis slut can suck my hog

[agrajag]

what about serena

[team filler]

she can make me suck her hog 

[nudemacusers]

What about McEnroe

[EmilioEstevez]

[Boredfrom]

I’m not saying Serena won’t be a legend, she already is, I’m saying I doubt events like this one will be used as part of what made her a legend, unlike with McEnroe

Excelsiorslef using the Leigh Alexander defense (“Why I’m not allowed to be a drunk idiot”)

[agrajag]

What about McEnroe

His hog is legendary for its outbursts.

Then blame the hypothetical people of the future then, who wouldn't do it.

lol at both Red Mercury and Excel getting crushed in that thread.  Double lol at Red Mercury closing out by saying "I may not be informed or understand anything but that doesn't mean I have any less right to post."

[kingv]

Serena acted super childish, of course resetera will defend her

[kingv]

Imagine Samus has just defeated Ridley in a harrowing battle. She turns to the camera and takes off her helmet, revealing she was in a wheelchair all along.

Interesting prefer the version where she turns around and faces a wall... suddenly a stream of urine appears confirming she is trans.

[Tiops]

People can't even discuss a tennis warning without a mod post on the OP. Incredible.

[BisMarckie]

https://resetera.com/posts/12411467/

Nope. With your 5k posts in one year I think it’s safe you assume you are definitely single.

In grade school I broke both of my legs and was in a wheelchair for a few months. I just wore some baggy clothes and the other kids couldn't even tell.

Blizzard releases some Total Biscuit cosmetics for Star Craft 2.  The proceeds entirely go to his widow and child.

Ree reacts accordingly with an unironic Hitler comparison.

McEnroe was like the most dominant tennis player in the world for much of the 1980s, dude almost never lost

Serena's penchant for shitfits should arguably be part of her "legend" as much as it is McEnroe's, alongside their personal dominance

THAT personality is what allowed McEnroe to become a prominent commentator after his playing career, he wasn't just a dominant player, he was also amusing and doesn't hold back...Charles Barkley is a fair comparison in another sport, although he doesn't have any rings I've heard, who also had a "colorful" career of spitting on fans, throwing fans through windows, gambling with Jordan, saying whatever he thought in interviews and getting fined, etc.

[benjipwns]

McEnroe:

Singles
Career record   881–198 (81.65%)
Career titles   77 (5th in the Open Era)

Serena:

Singles
Career record   801–136 (85.49%)
Career titles   72 WTA (5th in overall rankings)

yikes, stay safe out there

[benjipwns]

Doubles
Career record   530–103 (83.73%)
Career titles   78 (5th in the Open Era)

Doubles
Career record   187–33 (85%)
Career titles   23 WTA

wow at the racist tennis players who refuse to play alongside Serena as much as men thirty years ago would play with McEnroe, bet Trump has never even tweeted about this like he has NFL players kneeling

[benjipwns]

pretty much everything i know about tennis comes from the Virtua Tennis (and Mario Tennis) series, especially the original on Dreamcast (so I assumed Roger Federer was amazing, then I saw an ESPN story saying the metrics prove Federer is the player of his generation, another victory for SEGA)

in any case, despite that i knew McEnroe was a superstar of his era and not just famous for being an asshole but that was why he was famous BEYOND TENNIS, yet like they can't even check Wikipedia and see the dude was legit and constantly fined/ejected/punished before dropping their ERA-Takes

Unsurprising. These are the same morons who wanted TB to spend the last days of his life going on an apology tour instead of, you know, spending time with family and friends. They are completely unhinged.

edit: The more I read the thread, the clearer it gets that they truly think their outrage on ERA means something to the public at large. They need to come to terms with the fact that ERA is really, really small potatoes, so ERA getting mad about someone or something means fuck all to the larger public.

[BisMarckie]

It's telling that a bunch of posters latched on to the Hitler comparison rather than engage with any of his troubling actions.

https://www.resetera.com/posts/12450445/

But I find it interesting seeing the people latch onto the poor comparison.

you dont like" ? ? ?
So you like women being harrassed?

Those secret gators can't fool them

[BisMarckie]

What about the family of the harrassed people? ofc nobody cares cause they didnt support a fucking game.

The widows and orphans of the great gamergate war were forgotten, shameful

Wait, were they killed or something? Why the "family" and not the harassed on twitter person?

[BisMarckie]

Are you downplaying the death toll of gamergate? Wow, even after we know that it ruined more lives than pedophilia?

Yikes.

[benjipwns]

Well, with The Last Night there’s also that his entire stated premise for the game at that time was based on bizarre anti-feminist/mysognistic logic.

No, it wasn't. It never was. It was always a dystopian tale about dying in a world without financial want or gain.

At least stick to the fact that he once made #GamerGate tweets in his list of crimes, since that, you know, actually happened.

[thetylerrob]

Thats a yikes from me dog

[BisMarckie]

Branduil is probably one of my top 5 favorite posters over there.

[benjipwns]

It's such an Americanism that when a FRENCH developer says his game is about the downsides of equality, they assume he's talking about anti-women, instead of using the term purely in economic/financial/etc. ways.

[zepblackstar]

Are you downplaying the death toll of gamergate? Wow, even after we know that it ruined more lives than pedophilia?

Yikes.

the death toll of gamergate would have made Mao sad.

[thetylerrob]

ERA is also the only gaming place where you can be a minority without being discriminated so 2+2...

[benjipwns]

Etc. ways.

resources, capital, actually, social class would be the huge one for France probably

What I meant is, you can read a single interview and tell that Soret is like super-massively-French, "gender issues" would be like the hundredth thing he'd ever think of, especially to make part of his dystopian fantasy world.

[BisMarckie]

Read OP in red text when?

Or outright lock?

[benjipwns]

Remember when he called someone a f****t, and didn't apologize

That proves nothing except that blizzard doesn't care about women and minorities at all.

Wow Blizzard is basically the Nazi version of Israel, with TotalBiscuit as their Golda Meir.

[BisMarckie]

I will always find it funny that gaf/era treats gamergate as this huge impactful moment in history whereas 99% of people don't know anything about it.

[clothedmacuser]

this thread and the 2016 election certainly proves that false. 4chan is extremely relevant and is probably more relevant today than ever

https://www.resetera.com/posts/12450532

[benjipwns]

It wasn't even really a thing within gaming that I can tell. It was like a twitter/forum spat that caused some dumb thinkpieces and panels nobody attended at conferences.

[thetylerrob]

Not much is known about the gamer gate wars because it left so few survivors.

[benjipwns]

One of Lucas' biggest mistakes was showing the Clone Wars. It was way more interesting in the Thrawn Trilogy as this still mysterious horrible past event with no survivors around to explain it.

Similarly STD showing the Federation-Klingon War.

[Averon]

They really do consider Gamergate to be their 9/11, with people like TB hi-jacking the planes and flying them into the WTC. It sounds crazy because it is. But they are completely convinced that is the level of severity and damage GG caused.

Whining Serena Williams is tennis’s Hillary Clinton

...

‘It’s not fair,’ wailed Hillary Williams, after the umpire issued a warning when her coach was caught signalling her from the stand. Under questioning after the game, the coach admitted that he had done so but said the penalty was hypocritical: ‘Everybody does it,’ he said.

After smashing her racket onto the court, another violation for which the umpire docked her a point, Serena Clinton accused the judges of stealing the match from her. ‘Apologise,’ she screamed at the umpire. ‘You are the liar. You owe me an apology.’ ‘You will never, ever, ever be on another court of mine as long as you live.’

...

Now, at the peak of her career, Serena Clinton is ‘a walking time capsule of all the big and little injustices that have pockmarked her life.’ It’s all so unfair.  No one ever proved that she did anything wrong when her directed investment in cattle futures turned $1,000 into $100,000 in a little over 10 months.  Maybe she was a little imprudent when she told a lineman in 2009 ‘I swear to God I’ll take the fucking ball and shove it down your fucking throat.’ But that lost her the match point. It was so unfair. Only someone insensitive to how the rules pretend to be objective but are really stacked against marginalised groups could think that otherwise.

The world now awaits Hillary Williams’s book What Happened. Sure to be a bestseller, it will expose all the unfair reasons she lost, blame everyone else, and justify the immature, divisive, and appalling treatment of her opponent in the court of public opinion.

this is so terrible it's great

[benjipwns]

They really do consider Gamergate to be their 9/11, with people like TB hi-jacking the planes and flying them into the WTC. It sounds crazy because it is. But they are completely convinced that is the level of severity and damage GG caused.

Even this:


Barely talks about GamerGate, despite the subtitle. It has like one chapter on when the weird ex-dude posted his rant about her and one chapter where she talks about people on SA and 4chan saying she needs to die. All the rest is about how she became an awesome game developer despite a life of hardships. Then it has a chapter at the end about how to deal with harassment, in which she basically says "ignore it" and other generic things the security experts tell you to do.
