I read a game review from like 2004 the other day and the reviewer said "However, this game has a number of problematic things..."

And then went on the talk about the poor framerate, bad controls, etc.

We were such a simple uninformed people then. The review never even got to the gender, race, sexual preference and political party distribution of the characters.

Was it a review for the teen college sex comedy Planescape: Torment?

Incels and trolls whining about shit they barely understand because they have finally found a community that rewards them for lowest common denominator bullshit as long as they stay on message. They don't have an ethos, or a point, or an argument. They are just getting small jolts to their reward system for agreeing with each other and they don't care what they're agreeing about. This year it'll be women, next month it'll be race, or sexuality or some other target to blame for their own emptiness. So even if you want to help them, ignore them. If their communities wither, the individual members will at least have a better shot at doing something meaningful or constructive or honest.

If my parents let me decide what gender I was when I was a little kid I would have been spiderman-gendered.

The kid doesn’t know therefore until they are old enough to understand themselves, they are either born a boy or a girl. Normal humans understand this but, well, REEEEE.

If you don't educate your kid about sexuality at age 2 (at latest), you're a nazi.

At age two it should already be halfway through the academic canon.

FACT CHECK: https://www.resetera.com/threads/general-guide-to-resetera.9777/

Since its founding in late 2017, ResetEra has been an inviting bonfire at the crossroads of the gaming industry. Our goal is to provide a modern platform where enthusiasts and industry professionals alike will want to talk about all kinds of video games -- and everything else under the sun. Safeguarded by technology, a vigilant staff, and some of the toughest registration screening of any public forum, ResetEra has been able to cultivate a highly active and passionate community while keeping most trolls and bad actors off of the site.

Today ResetEra is the most popular independent gaming forum on the internet as measured by traffic. It is also an inclusive space that proudly welcomes members of every gender, ethnicity, and sexual orientation. Respect and decency towards each other, regardless of background, is nonnegotiable. Posters are expected to enter discussions in good faith.

Thread Creation Guidelines

The power to make threads comes with important responsibility. Here's how you can get a great discussion started.

Show Some Effort

Being the Original Poster (OP) of a thread means that it's up to you to provide the foundation for good discussion. When you create a thread, you should include more than just one or two short sentences; make sure that there is enough substance to sustain an interesting conversation. Write as clearly and articulately as possible. Consider whether you're presenting the subject in a way that will generate good discussion. Make sure you are posting the thread in the correct section of the forum, and use the preview feature to double check your work before posting. After creating your thread, consider adding a Cover Image to spruce up its presentation. Do not make provocative threads only to bail on them after the first post. All of the rules outlined in other parts of this document also apply to thread creation.

The main problem with old gaf was that you were far removed and allowed the inmates to over-rule you. When you closed the BCT only to be overruled by bish really was telling about who controlled the forum at the time.

Less euro trips and more keeping an eye on your staff.

He didn’t overrule me. He asked politely if he could handle it instead, quietly, since he knew them, and said some nonsense about how it would be reminiscent of slavery if a white man banned them. Absurd, but it seemed to be a big deal to him so I let it go.

The snack bar joke for “Allahu Ackbar” is actually a fairly common xenophobic joke used on 4chan and hate sites.

I see you, Dennis.

[benjipwns]

People yell in US theaters often. It's part of why I don't go see films on opening night

In this case you don't even grasp the context. Beside being insensitive to the whole aspect of the terrorist attacks.

I don't think it's right to say that Allah Akbar is an inherently dangerous thing to say (or even yell) in a public place.

Why do you keep using "say" after being told several times that it's not about saying it? See, this is exactly arguing in bad faith. I'm done with your trolling.

what

[benjipwns]

That said, it’s not really that different from yelling “oh my god” is it? Which people definitely did during my screening of Joker

The man was present at the screening when he stood up, with another individual, and shouted "Allah Akbar" several times in this large cinema room with a capacity of 500 spectators. The two men then fled.

[benjipwns]

I can only read the Google translation but it doesn't reveal what ethnicity the man was, was he white or Muslim?

Its deeper than that. The owners pulling the articles from all their websites is censoring the staff and ALL OF US as consumers. The article was promoting and encouraging the use of free speech to opine on what we the consumers would like to see. By pulling these articles they are censoring us the readers of Video Game Journalism.

This is quite obviously a troll thread

I love how OP hasn't so much as acknowledge ANY of the links posted
10/10 trolling

You’re such an obvious antivaxxer. Get the fuck outta here with this bullshit.

Just your standard troll thread.

Troll thread?

This is a masterfully done troll thread.

OP your wife is a fool and so are you. Read the links, get educated, close this thread down and grow the fuck up.

I feel bad for the kids tbh.

Also, don’t @ me. Just read the information provided and protect your children from cancer.

Yeah go ask your other homophobic alt right anti-vaccine cult members

Admin, delete this motherfucker's account. Send a message.

Yep. Everyone report the OP. Anti-vax bullshit isn’t allowed here.

I suppose that's one form of answering the question and having good discussion.

Look, my post history shows where I stand overall, so instead of simple posts please explain why me and the wife are incorrect in our concerns.
