The quickness and ease in which these clowns slink back under Tyler's banner once they get perm'd on ERA is something else. Even the righteous "ally" Hobbes dragged his ass back to NeoGAF immediately after his perma ban. Goes to show how so many are performatively 'woke' on ERA and only do it due to peer pressure and fear of getting banned.

Most people on Reset are probably only really still there because they are some what addicted to it,  an addiction that started with neogaf. Once they get cut off reset they substitute gaf to keep the dopamine flowing

It was obvious Hobbes would go back to Gaf. He wasn't as prominent as he thought he was and way too unpopular to get a mod sanctioned alt account (hello Stinkles.) Now he's a Gaf chew toy and the Ree's will call him a dumb Nazi. A sad end for a sad character.

[BIONIC]

Indeed. How [USER=47794]SubvertedTrope[/USER] is avoiding bans is very much reminding me of how [USER=14439]Black Chamber[/USER] did the same. In both cases, minority communities sending all kinds of alarm bells. Only to be ignored.

And in [USER=14439]Black Chamber[/USER]'s case, it taking stuff BEING FOUND OFF SITE FOR HIM TO BE PERMED.

What will it take for the community to be actually listened to regarding SubvertedTrope? Does something need to be found?

What if nothing is?

Will we then find out what would have happened to [USER=14439]Black Chamber[/USER] had nothing been found from off-site?

Because yeah, I'm sorry to go there, but I can't help but be reminded of that, especially precisely because everything involving [USER=14439]Black Chamber[/USER] is so recent, to see minority concerns not only be brushed off AGAIN but have those same members banned for ADDRESSING THEIR CONCERNS IN A THREAD THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE FOR THAT, while the instigator gets off scott-free... It would almost be more dishonest NOT to make the comparison, ESPECIALLY SINCE even if others don't actually say it, they're no doubt thinking it and it's no doubt part of the reason why they're feeling the reason they are, why they're so scared and afraid of what's happening, and raising the alarm bells, so I'll speak for them in that case, because everything, EVERYTHING is wrong here, and as terrified as I am, I nonetheless can't remain silent in this situation, that absolutely would be the wrong thing to do, so here I am.

I'm sorry, but this has gone past the "innocent mistakes" phase.

There was time to discuss that.

Plenty of it.

Plenty of opportunities given.

They were swatted away.

Like, we gave them opportunities regarding [USER=1740]Sibylus[/USER]'s ban. That perhaps, maybe, they're telling the truth about that.

But now we're supposed to believe them with [USER=5396]Apa504[/USER] to?

After what happened with [USER=1740]Sibylus[/USER]?

After what SO VERY NEARLY HAPPENED WITH [USER=14439]Black Chamber[/USER]?

After all the other bans that have happened in the thread?

After all the members that have been banned, while those who gaslight or dismiss the concerns or otherwise troll or minimize the concerns of TransEra, MuslimEra, AsianEra, and other communities are allowed to do that for PAGES ON END?

That they DON'T GET BANNED.

But yet [USER=1740]Sibylus[/USER] was banned for "not wanting to be here."
But yet apparently with [USER=5396]Apa504[/USER] coming back from a self-requested ban is now a relevant reason to consider banning everyone.

And then there was how staff put [USER=14439]Black Chamber[/USER] being nice to them in private OVER EVERY LAST ALARM BELL TRANS-ERA AND OTHER COMMUNITIES WERE GIVING IN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE ALIKE AND HE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN AWAY WITH IT HAD STUFF NOT BEEN FOUND FROM OFF-SITE OF ALL PLACES?

And of course, that's also ignoring this ALL EXTENDS BEFORE [USER=14439]Black Chamber[/USER] as well.

There was everything that happened to AsianEra, and MuslimEra, the prior failed communications with various communities that LEAD TO THREADS LIKE THIS EXISTING IN THE FIRST PLACE.

There's only so much benefit of the doubt that can be given before one is forced, even if one doesn't want to consider it, even if it's the last thing you want to believe, nonetheless, there's only so much doubt that can be given before the act of malice must cross one's mind.

And I don't want to assume that myself yet. I'm not there yet, and I AM NOT SAYING THAT.

But consider what happened to AsianEra & MuslimEra, the reason this thread even exists in the first place, and their concerns apparently falling on deaf ears given not only were their particular concerns not addressed, but we find ourselves in such a similar situation to begin with.

Consider the case of [USER=14439]Black Chamber[/USER], who there were so many alarm bells being rung about, but which were being ignored and likely would have continued to have been, if something hadn't been found from off-site.

Consider how so many people are banned for just venting and addressing their concerns while Poodlestrike is still safe for telling someone to pound sand, and, just like how alarm bells were raised about [USER=14439]Black Chamber[/USER], they also are about SubvertedTrope, only to be ignored again.

There's only so much one can take before one begins to suspect malice.

I'm not sure I'm there myself, and I'm not saying I am, I don't want to say that, I don't want to think that or even imply it.

But what I will say is that the staff's continued choice of action and inaction are not helping themselves by any measure on that front, so if that's not the message they want to send, which indeed may possibly be the case, but in that case, they need to think long and hard about who they do and don't ban, what action they do or don't take, because it only becomes harder by the hour, nevermind the day, to not suspect malice at this point, and that is on the staff, and no one else because they are ultimately to blame for their choices so if people feel they're deliberately being targeted, it's on staff to address those concerns instead of simply banning anyone who voices them.

How long would it be reasonable until members CAN START SUGGESTING MALICE?

Especially considering what happened to AsianEra and MuslimEra, with many of their concerns not met and us being in this predicament in the first place?

How long would it take TransEra to suggest the same?

Because this thread has existed for MONTHS NOW, LITERAL MONTHS, WITH NO SIGN OF ACTUAL CHANGE FROM THE STAFF.

SO HOW LONG UNTIL MEMBERS CAN AT LEAST ADDRESS CONCERNS OF MALICE, HOW LONG CAN PEOPLE BRING THOSE PERFECTLY VALID FEELINGS GIVEN ALL THAT HAS HAPPENED, UP?

HOW MANY CHANCES DOES THE STAFF GET?

How long until we CAN suggest that?

Months? Years? Never?

Because I'm saying I believe that myself. I'm not there myself yet.

But like I said, I'm an INCREDIBLY EMPATHETIC PERSON, TO A FAULT.

So while I'm not there, I'm perfectly understanding of why others would be, and don't think people should be banned for addressing such concerns and having such grievances, given both all that has and what has not happened in these past months.

If that's not the case, staff has had months to convey that to members.

Clearly, some think they have failed in that regard.

And if that's the case, they should be able to address that in safety, AT THE VERY LEAST IN THIS OF ALL THREADS IF NOWHERE ELSE.

Or at least that's how I feel, for however little that is worth.

Again, to be perfectly clear, I myself am not saying that I think any staff member is acting with active malice here, intentional or otherwise.

But given everything that's happened these past six months and hell even earlier, and STILL SEEING THE SAME THINGS HAPPEN TO THESE DAYS, HAVING THE SAME EXACT CONCERNS, I understand if after a period of over half a year that some members would begin to question if staff is indeed acting in good faith whatsoever, and feel they should be able to voice those concerns, even if they come off as hurtful, because ultimately what's behind such barbed words is layers upon layers of hurt itself, of they themselves being hurt or ones they know or care about being hurt or wronged in the past, and that shouldn't be ignored, or be off-limits, as it's a sign that there's a clear problem, a huge one, and we can't begin to fix it if we don't let the whole picture, even all the ugliest bits, come out into the open, and let that hurt be fully addressed and grievances be heard.

Sorry, had to go take a much-needed shave. In any case, to be perfectly clear about the edits I've made about this post:

I, IN NO WAY, CONDONE CALLING MEMBERS OF THE STAFF RACIST, TRANSPHOBIC, SEXIST, ETC.

Of course that's naturally not cool.

However...

After months of inaction, and broken promises.
After months of the same mistakes being repeated again, and again, and again.
After community after community and member after member no longer feels welcome and leaves this site.

All this, as threads like this very thread itself, have now been going on for months itself, in theory to help address those exact issues.

Despite those months having passed by, many feel we're in the same if not a worse position than when this thread began.

Due to those same promises still being broken and promised action not taken.
Due to the same mistakes being repeated again and again and again.
Due to only more and more members and more and more communities leaving.

I, IN NO WAY, CONDONE CALLING THE STAFF RACIST/TRANSPHOBIC/SEXIST/ETC.

I DON'T CONDONE THAT IN ANY WAY.

...But I understand it. I don't condone it. But I understand those that would.

And indeed, even if you do not condone it yourself, when put into perspective like that, when we've been dealing with this since THE SUMMER IF NOT BEFORE, even while condemning it, it's very hard not to UNDERSTAND it at the same type, if you have the slightest thread of empathy, if you just take a moment to consider we've been dealing with this since the middle of the year, and now at the end of it, find ourselves at much the same place, in the same exact thread in fact (since that, as it was then, is one of the few places granted to us to express such feelings).

So I believe that's an accurate summary of where I'm personally at:

I, IN NO UNCERTAIN WORDS, DO NOT CONDONE CALLING THE STAFF TRANSPHOBIC/SEXIST/RACIST/ETC. I CONDONE THAT IN NO WAY WHATSOEVER.

...But I understand that.

And I think that's the important part here. That we could deal with less defensiveness, even if that's the hardest thing in the world to do sometimes, hell, I know that firsthand and know I'm hardly one to speak on that subject, but precisely because of that, I've both experienced and learned that it's indeed true, that while it can be so INCREDIBLY hard to overcome those instincts to be defensive and the need the retaliate and fire back when we feel that someone has wronged or hurt us in some way, nonetheless, some times the best thing to do is to listen and see why others feel those ways and are using such charged language to begin with, that what makes them speak with such poisoned tongues and sharp words, and, even when it hurts us ourselves, try to be more understanding.

So one final time:
I in no no way condone calling the staff racist/transphobic/sexist, or any such thing. I do not.

But I understand where those who would levy such accusations are coming from, and I wish there was more of that understanding from the staff, even if the bans are themselves justified, I nonetheless wish there was some transparent, statement of understanding of the pain behind those words from the staff, and, yeah, just understanding of where people are coming from in general, more understanding of why they're hurt, why they're saying the things they are, and some clear demonstration that staff gets that, and why we should believe them, especially as this thread's mere existence for half-a-year makes that very, incredibly difficult for some, to see the same mistakes and issues play out time and time again, to have a clear statement that address not just the CURRENT situation but also the PAST as well and how all this will be rectified, something like that, that's what I wish for and, in absence of such a thing for months on end, while I cannot condone people calling the staff transphobic/racist/sexist/etc, I understand it. I understand it.

That's all.

It's just one thing after another with GOG. I'm ashamed to say I promoted them in the past. I'm sick of supporting these trash major companies with my money. I'll download installers for all my games and switch to using Playnite.

What are my alternatives? I don't care if I miss out on major games. I can be perfectly happy only playing indies and my backlog.

Steam and Epic are also run by trash companies. Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo are all horrible.

So far itch.io hasn't done anything bad yet right? What about Playism?

Why is it that a thread about Cyberpunk 2077 content being added to Death Stranding is allowed? I thought that only the OT, the CDPR is Transphobic, and threads critical or about important issues(Seizure warning, Refund issue) were allowed?

You realize how bad it looks that an admin posted in there too right? like, some members are terrified of posting in here because they don't want to be banned for a non-reason by an administration that visibly appears to not want them here, and yet the one concession that was made from the BC ban, the CP2077 thread limiting, is seemingly out the window now after you all banned enough trans users?

[VomKriege]

I'm a bit surprised about this tbh. Surely since Sony owns the Death Stranding IP, they'd have to approve any collaboration, even if it's only on PC. Given CDPR have a marketing deal with MS and they are annoyed with CDPR over the refund situation, I'm surprised they didn't block this association of their IP with CP77.

Kojipro must be bummed about the massive negative backlash CDPR/CP2077 is currently getting though, lol.

I think what got peoples' attention on hobbes was the fact that era likes to pretend it has the ear of the industry and is full of insiders and journalists, hobbes was always "verafied" but people discovered his journalism chops were writing some really narrow scope articles for some no-name site, which he then quit, so he was just some guy pretending he had clout

he posted somewhat aggressively at era but was always just slightly "off" in his takes, enough that he ate regular bans for hostility and backseat moderation

I dunno he was just some guy

The users then often say "I don't agree with this ban, I thought this place was for open conversations?" and EviLore just says some brainy shit about not wanting to "import the intelligentsia here."  Can't have smart people mucking up the forum I Gues slol.

yeah it was pretty dumb to ban him

it's like people were saying in this thread earlier...set rules, ban when people break them, if he was having a polite post-mortem just let it play out, ban him when he breaks your actual rules
