It's funny how 'Lore is perming anyone who flies too close to the radicalized sun, straight up. No warning, no temp ban, just PERM! *headshot* PERM! *headshot*

And then you go look at the NeoGAF Unfair Ban Justice thread and people are sheepishly asking about / accusing him of ridiculous insta-perms, the very ones he was overturning from the Bish days. 

You can't make this shit up 

Case in point:

Why has Geki D been banned?

Strange bedfellows for an Angel, Yoshi...

And you look up that Geki D account and it's been nuked. Actually not nuked, you just can't view the profile.

Edit: From what I can tell, this is probably what got him banned -- which makes complete sense if you know anything about Tyler.

I would rather just point towards some of the long time users getting banned now for white nationalist shit. This stuff doesn't exist in a vacuum, it was always there, just tolerated (when it never should have been).

One recent example that comes to mind was when Nobody_Important made a thread about the Proud Boys breaking up because some of them wanted to be even more openly racist, the thread quickly devolved into a defence of the "Proud Goys". And whilst some people were banned for being way too obvious with their racism, a good number who were on board the "Great Replacement" train weren't and still aren't.

And yes, the Great Replacement is an openly white nationalist theory:

Shit like this cropped up all the time. It has no place a forum that isn't Stormfront, let alone on a gaming forum and I'm glad things are changing.

As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a headless suit. To me, being a suit was better than being President of the United States. Even before I first wandered into the chatroom for an after-school troll, I knew what I wanted for my avatar.

I have always taken this form. Back in the bad old days I used imagery specifically from Elite Beat Agents. I made this in Paint based on a few different sprite rips and cleaned it up one pixel at a time.

(Image removed from quote.)

But over time I moved away from my EBA origins. I have no artistic talent to speak of — I struggle very much with pen and pencil, digital or otherwise. But wanting something truly original, I made something all myself. It looked terrible, but it was my own work and I was proud of that.

(Image removed from quote.)

But I knew it could be better. Over the next few months I saved to properly pay an artist to redraw the art from scratch with some actual talent. I started with an artist here I really admired who produced a sketch for me to use as a basis going forward.

(Image removed from quote.)

Then I found an artist on Twitter who I asked to redraw it however they wanted and I would pay them regardless of the result. She returned me this, which I wore briefly as my first professionally drawn avatar.

(Image removed from quote.)

But I didn’t love the posture and wanted something a little more tradmasc, so I found a fledgling artist who I was impressed with specifically because of how they drew men’s fashion. I approached them with my concept and they brought back the first “perfect” version of the avatar, which I wore from then on. To a lot of people on the internet, this is what I look like. This is Finale Fireworker.

(Image removed from quote.)
(Image removed from quote.)

But mid-2019 to mid-2020 was a rough time for me. I went through a lot of things that really pushed me to the brink of my personal fortitude. Without paying too much mind to the diversion, I wasn’t sure if I was going to make it. But I did. And as I worked through this stuff, I felt like it was time for a change. It was time to switch out of the suit — at least for a while — and in to business casual. A very talented friend of mine redrew my avatar yet again as a gift into the shirt and suspenders I wear to today.

My avatar, my consistent face online, has followed me through many formative years of my life. It is how I’ve presented and how I’ve been perceived for close to 10 years. At no point in this continuum have I ever looked any different online and I never doubted what I looked like. This was me.

Enter @SuccessfulStra3, a random account that showed up on my timeline as a promoted tweet: https://twitter.com/successfulstra3?s=21

They are a mundane account. They have 7,000 followers and mostly tweet vague affirmations and aspirations about “business” and “doing business.” But their avatar is... me.

(Image removed from quote.)

I know logically that this is not really me. I am not a creative genius. It is very normal and natural that someone else would have come up with this idea at some point. The imagery probably occurred to them just as easily as it occurred to me. I do not believe they stole it from me or that my insignificant existence had any influence on this equally insignificant Twitter account.

And yet I feel... compromised. To look on my own image and see not myself has thrust me coldly in to the reflecting pool. What do I do now? Who am I? If someone else can be me, who was I ever? Can I still be me knowing that someone else is too?

I have seen my doppelgänger. I rehearsed this moment so many times in my head. I knew that if I faced them with imperfect courage I would end up trapped in the Black Lodge — maybe forever. And now that they are here I know I have failed this test of character. By virtue of their existence, my own existence has ceased.

Really makes you think. Maybe I should reinvent myself.

That's exactly what it is. "The Globalists"  didn't tell me to change the Politics forum guidelines. I've been pushing back and removing people from Politics like Compsiox to prevent the forum from completely going off the rails prior to this. The plan was to make hard rules changes about the stolen election conspiracies from January 20th onward, but the Capitol Attack pushed the timetable forward and made it clear that significant changes would be necessary.

https://www.neogaf.com/threads/video-showing-officer-brian-sicknick-being-beaten-to-death.1586118/page-5#post-261950308

Personally, I could care less about storming the capitol in itself. I'm not condoning it. You won't see me there, or at any protest. However, after the years of protesting for leftist causes, destroying cities, looting, and hurting/killing far more people, who's to say this one was the worst? What is bad is the violence. Beating that officer to death is beyond reprehensible. The angry mob mentality is a cancer. As are any of the other acts of violence.

There's little consistency anymore. Cops are bad unless they are enforcing your cause. Riots are wrong unless they are for your cause. The big difference though is that the media and narratives heavily favor anything left. Trump never said to kill and pillage. I can find a lot more Democratic leadership who has inspired much worse. I can find a lot more leftist riot violence. You can judge everyone on the right by a handful. You are never allowed to judge anyone on the left by their handfuls. Don't follow that load of shit that Trump is the one causing division.

Who does REE SIDE WITH!?

[Switters]

Fireworker wakes up. He sleeps prone, face down on his bed, no pillow, no sheets. He is naked except for black dress socks held tight on his pale thighs by thick leather garters.

He goes to the bathroom and showers in the dark. He doesn't move. There is no soap. There is no shampoo. There is only moisture and time.

He thinks about things. Dogs, coffee, when was the last time he farted. He can't remember. His thoughts are black and purple.

He exits the shower without turning it off and makes his way to an adjoining room. Water pools on the cool linoleum floor as he slushes into his Office Max backless ergonomic chair and boots up his 4gb of ram Dell small business PC.

Maybe I should reinvent myself, he thinks while sucking on his exes toothbrush.

He cracks his knuckles and logs into the forum, his socks dripping.



 

[Rahxephon91]

So since they banned NX Gamer does that mean you can't post his stuff there?

At what point do they realize they are creating an increasingly insular community?

And the response is never "let's talk about why we think you are wrong", it's always "fuck you, you must be a pos". Which you know doesn't really allow for the person to respond without being against the wall, not that it matters since they are banned pretty quickly.

And as Nintendo fans, we keep letting our image down. Nintendo is no doubt looking at this closely, and having probably worked with Gamexplain in the past, will most likely yet again evaluate their position on how they handle their relationship with Youtubers etc.

Have I miswrote what I meant? I am explaining my disappointment in Andre as he, like many people in the past, has once again let down Nintendo fans and proven why Nintendo is careful with their image.

With things like the Smash sexual allegations, this, and countless other things, Nintendo once again have been proven right to be doing their own thing, at least in their eyes. And who can really blame them?

I think it wouldn't even violate human rights if all Nintenyearolds were deported to the south pole.

Cancel culture has finally made it’s way to Andre. Can’t help but see the irony. I’ve found that cancel culture typically comes back to haunt those that inflict it on others.

JordanN looks out his window where a Biden Harris sign stands proudly on his lawn as he deletes the now banned YMCA and Gloria songs from his Spotify playlist and rolls up a Pepe banner so it neatly fits into his trashcan.
Our reporter notices the Swastika decals plastered on his chair. "Ironic isn't it" he quips, as he takes sip from his 100% organic smoothie.
Although it is easy to get rid of the stuff it isn't easy to get rid of the memories. "We had some good times playing Minecraft, our server obviously attracted only the most skilled and disciplined German builders."

Tyler agrees as he comforts his new friend who sheds a small tear: "I can't say that it wasn't fun to essentially create the most free-thinking space on the internet all by myself but desperate times call for desperate measures and I had to put the 'moderate' into our 'moderation' to safeguard democracy and future generations. So that one day I might be able to look my grandchildren in the eye and say this was our finest moment and I was always on the right side of history no matter from which angle you look at it and I earned my fortune as a giant in tech and community building fair and square. Helping people like JordanN get back on their feet is just one of the many great things I will do to keep the fabric of society and our democracy together. When you are as popular, wealthy and succesful as me you need to take responsibility."

Ex-Partner Had A Miscarriage at 20 Weeks, Told Me Over Email, Then Blocked Me

t's all in the title. I'm just really hurt and confused right now. We broke up back in December because she couldn't deal with the stress of having me around (since my finances fluctuate a lot). And we committed to being co-parents so we were sending things back and forth, going to classes, reading books, etc.

But then on 12/27 she contacted me saying she had cancelled her second ultrasound (no explanation). I tried to contact her because I was concerned since she stays on top of her schedule. She ignored me for 9 days (I only sent two messages). A few days ago she told me she'd have an update this week. And this morning I got the news.

Now, I feel like it happened during the time she stopped talking to me, and that she was too devastated to talk, which I understand. But I hate that I had to hear about it over email, then for her to just block me on everything so we couldn't have a conversation about it. I don't even know the date it happened, and I've read that it's more of a stillbirth at 20 weeks and they cremate the babies.

Anyway, I won't be reaching out to her, but I'm really sad. I've never felt this low in my life, and it sucks because I'll never know exactly what happened.

Still, I know she's having a worse time. I just wish she would've provided me with some more information because the baby was my daughter too

Hopefully, I don't come across like a selfish fool. I know she doesn't have the emotional bandwidth right now. I'm just venting.

What a charmer..

Now, I feel like it happened during the time she stopped talking to me, and that she was too devastated to talk, which I understand. But I hate that I had to hear about it over email, then for her to just block me on everything so we couldn't have a conversation about it. I don't even know the date it happened, and I've read that it's more of a stillbirth at 20 weeks and they cremate the babies.

Anyway, I won't be reaching out to her, but I'm really sad. I've never felt this low in my life, and it sucks because I'll never know exactly what happened.

Still, I know she's having a worse time. I just wish she would've provided me with some more information because the baby was my daughter too

Hopefully, I don't come across like a selfish fool. I know she doesn't have the emotional bandwidth right now. I'm just venting.

What a charmer..

I read that as "my fiancés fluctuate around a lot" and was like

Setting aside anything else, assuming the sexuality of someone like Ben who goes out of his way to be non-committal on that front is pretty fucked-up.

Meanwhile Lore's toys are attempting to write stirring resignation speeches -

With regret I will no longer be posting on GAF (and no I won't be requesting a ban like a drama queen - I will simply log out and not come back). Unfortunately, after two years of quite correctly undoing bish's mistakes and increasing transparency, the new direction of travel is to repeat those same mistakes. There's an Einstein quote on that one. Whatever the cause of EL's change of attitude (and there has been a notable uptick in rudeness), be it fear or just deciding he doesn't need us any more after we got the site to critical mass, or maybe a genuine change of heart, it leaves us all walking on eggshells (just look at the reboot of clown world - a shadow of its former self). It's your ball pit, you get to run it how you want, and nothing any of us says will make the slightest difference, just as it didn't when people spoke up last time. It is what it is, I will miss GAF because it was truly awesome, but I fear it soon won't be. Good luck.
