You know, for having the power to steal anyone's basketball ability the Monstars sure made some questionable choices.

Can’t really blame them though. Who could’ve guessed Bill Murray was the real best basketball player of all time?

i accidentally came across this thread but i'm glad it's categorized this way. trans people ARE their own thing and grouping them in with everyone else would cause more problems than it would solve. sorry if this is.. like, drive-by posting or something, but i wanted to put my on opinion in

real talk: kinda glad to see people leaving ree even if it requires them getting banned in the process

ree now reminds me a lot of what gamergate was like on the inside, and it's highly disturbing how cult-like it is tbqh

some of the more casual posters and people on the fringe may not notice it, but a lot of people, especially a lot of posts that show up here, are definitely prime example of "wow this is fucking unsettling"

Isolate yourself from your friends and family if they don't agree with what ree tells you is right (which is ever increasingly extremist and delusional to the point most rational people will look at you funny): check
group reinforcement that *they* are your true friends and you need to just stick with *them*: check
positive reinforcement for "thinking the right thoughts" and extremely negative feedback for not thinking with the group, to the point of warnings/bans: check

there's a lot more at play there, but overall the site has taken such a turn that I don't think they've even realized what they've become, and I don't think they possess the self awareness to ever really grasp it. if it's point out, "oh you're just a troll" and the idea is instantly dismissed bc your support structure (ree) is there to tell you otherwise

& before banana saltdae comes along and yells "ur just mad bc u got banned" I haven't been banned yet, I just actively stopped posting there bc the site is so negative it became bad for my mental health, being around people that are so angry all the time was legitimately affecting me

the real internet hate machine was the internet forum we made fun of all along

I think era are racists.

Of course they are. Believing in the existence of separate human races (aka racial theory) makes you a racist.
I genuinely don't understand why you are so hung up on this line.

The rest of the modern world will continue to operate no matter how much you continue to yell "You're Proving Hitler Right!" whenever someone even mentions race in regards to racial identity/inequality/politics etc.

You need to take off your edge.

Drink, jack off, and/or eat at Taco Bell. Do something.

Sorry for the late reply. While the concept itself (believing in the existence of separate human races makes you racist) is simple enough, most (Americans) seem to have a hard time to grasp it. Keeping this idiocy alive doesn't prove Hitler right, it perpetuates his mental poison [edit: to clarify, I'm using Hitler as a generic term here; he didn't invent racism].
The reason I brought it up more than once in this thread is because of the constant race-nonsense at Resetera. Many of their "prominent" members/mods are indeed incredibly racist. A while ago they actually permed a French member who explained that black Frenchmen generally don't consider themselves African-French, but simply French, which is exactly how it should be.

This issue is the root cause of lots of nonsense that they seem to believe in at Resetera, like "cultural appropriation", "racial identity" and so on. That's why I think it bears repeating.

This is getting embarrassing

https://www.resetera.com/threads/pewdiepie-promotes-known-white-supremacist-again.92504/

Pewdiepie watched a compilation of tiktok videos that features an altright guy for five seconds. He doesn't promote him, he doesn't mention his name and the guy's face isn't recognizable to anyone who isn't deep into the right wing scene.

By that logic, people on resetera are promoting the white supremacist person because they made a thread and had to explain why this is 'such a big deal' and 'problematic'. Also, The Bore is now promoting white supremacy by linking to resetera.  :doge

Good post. The reason why most remaining members don't notice the insanity is because it developed gradually, while their bubble prevents them from objectively observing the outside world and noticing the discrepancy. For the first couple of months you could have rational discussions on Resetera. Then you were forced to conform (which seems to be an automatic and subconscious process for most) or leave.
And yes, Resetera drags you down and makes you feel bad. Deciding not to post there anymore was a very liberating experience. Anyone who would like to regain a more positive outlook and just feel better in general should just leave that mental prison.

He is clearly doing this to provoke a response from the Liberal Media.

He's constantly using memes from 4chan and saying that was from Reedit, using Ben Shapiro clips, including far-right memes, like memes about Obama...

What hole do people like you crawl out of? It's really strange how posts like these pop up every time there's a thread about something like this.
You probably won't be truthful, but I'm generally curious:
  • Who do you get your marching orders from?
  • Where do you get your marching orders from? GAF? KiwiFarms? KotakuInAction? 4chan? A Discord channel?
  • Are low-effort posts like this satisfying some sort of hazing ritual you need to fulfill to on some other site?
Unironically posting what amounts to a "lul safe space" meme in 2019 is just too much.

I was in Honolulu over the holidays, cutting through the mall from the beach back to my AirBnB. A teen girl at the top of the escalator was stopping everyone, showing them her handmade sign, which read "Subscribe to PewDiePie." As I got to the top someone was asking her why they should. She's like "Because he's awesome!" I looked the would-be subscribers in the eye and said "He's a white supremacist" and they turned and looked at the girl like she was an alien, while she looked pissssseddddd.

It was a good day.

Probably not the best place to discuss this, but I need to vehemently disagree. Even beyond the most notorious mods that are surely on everyone's minds, I can at least think of two other GAF mods I didn't care for in the least (one of them enjoying actively trolled the GW2 thread even after he stopped playing, and banned people who called him out on it). Whereas Era has a solid track record of making mods out of my favorite people (Morrigan, Finale Fireworker and now RedCrayon) and has been far more lenient with warnings and infractions.

You might be confused by the fact that Era stamps down harder on bigotry than GAF did. Sorry, but for me, that's a feature, not a bug.
I don't remember millions of women and minorities leaving NeoGAF.com in caravans due to the bigotry.

Unsleeved Media and TheQuartering are alternate channels of the same person and run the same editorial content. Was that supposed to be a serious recommendation of a better outlet to go to? I wouldn't want to assume you were being disingenuous.

The reason I linked your criticism of TheQuartering to criticism of this guy's decision to go to TheQuartering with his tale was because the topic of this thread is the man's story of his time at Blizzard. The merit of TheQuarterting as a journalist seems pretty wildly off-topic if it wasn't intended with any relation to this man or his story's credibility.

who is this redcrayon dude anyway?

never heard of him before and he tends to start his posts with things like "lovely", "interesting!" "thank you" and perhaps the most damning of all "i like this.."

how this guy was considered mod material is beyond me

If other girls were in the rain, they'd be running inside their homes screaming "my hair is messy, my hair is messy." But Samus doesn't care.

Also other girls wouldn’t want to wear a power suit either as it makes them feel less sexy or unapproachable but Samus wears it anyways and my god she makes it look both sexy on her and approachable 😀

Quote from: SamusIsTheBestWaifu
100% agree with you.

For me I don’t look at a woman as below me or above me but standing next to me and across from me looking at eye level with me as my eqaul and the one to watch my back as the two of us fight a dragon together as both allues in battle and lovers in the bed room and this is what Samus is for me......my warrior goddess.

I'd just like to say, good work everyone on our plan to make ResetERA.com look hysterical by calling PewDiePie an obvious Nazi for a three second clip (which he did in an obvious manner to throw off anyone looking up all the other secret Nazi's he included in the video), but remember to insert the secret code phrases we agreed upon when you post with your multiple alts. This is essential in making sure nobody catches on.

Also, a special thanks to new member Benita for the idea and the codename for the operation.

He's a regular in the RPG threads, not a bad dude but let's see if mod power gets to him.

The only good things to come out of R. Kelly’s wretched existence is the opening scene in Space Jam, and this music video:




Drip drip drip  :rkelly

And of course the episode of Trapped in the Closet with the midget  :lol

This is why I keep coming back. It's the cycle of abuse that keeps me going.

You're an Enzom that actually gets what he wants

It's like, the reason most of us moved here, no?

Some of these posts here echo that Congressman from the news this morning: "When did the term 'white supremacist' become a bad thing?"
Pretty much. People with low tolerance for sexism, bigotry and hypocrisy moved to Era; people who didn't mind that much stayed on GAF. I don't think why people are surprised that this selection filter resulted in Era the progressive forum and modern-GAF the average gamer hellhole.

In a more meta sense, it's like people want the intelligent discouse of a strongly moderated forum with zero tolerance for bigotry, but without said moderation being applicable to them. OK, it's not "like" that; it's exactly that.
Excellent work whichever of you this is. There will be a few extra rubles dinars in your paycheck for sure.
