Perfect timing to lock down the JK thread with ZOGwarts Legacy unlocking early for those who bought the deluxe edition(everyone claiming they won't be purchasing it).

Polygon hasn’t reviewed it or mentioned it on their homepage, but Google Hogwarts Legacy and they’ve got a growing list of SEO bait how to articles:

If Era actually sticks to their guns and bans ALL HL content, they'll weather the storm pretty well.  There will be some awkward stuff here and there like sales threads and end of year accolades, but nothing that will cause a full forum meltdown.  I'm skeptical of people being able to keep their mouths shut, but we'll see.

This weird culture war is more being fought on Twitter, Reddit and Twitch.  People playing the game are getting harassed like crazy like Girlfriend Reviews.  I don't really see the anti-JKR side winning this, especially when you got a literal streamer tracker site used to name and shame people daring to stream the funny wizard game.  It's going to culminate in someone having an actual public mental breakdown and Rowling will ironically come out looking morally superior.

If you watch the full video in context, he starts complaining about “alt-left gamers” and how Harvey Weinstein produced the LOTR movies so you better not watch them. Definitely cancelled now.

I dunno man, I sure as shit aint anti trans, so these idiots actively hurting the cause of trans people with their stupid fucking hyperbole is as depressing as it is hilarious.
Not to mention the whole concept of this particular boycott (refusing coverage of the biggest game of the year so far) is just asinine.

"What if, at a time tons people are looking for Hogwarts content, we don't give them any from our perspective, and instead funnel all the eyeballs, money and power to our opposition?"

I think theyd rather stand firm and let people who disagree migrate to Neogaf, then do a 180 on their stance and let people discuss the game there. They dont mind losing those users im sure.

OFFICIAL STAFF COMMUNICATION
We're locking this thread one more time for another cooldown period overnight.

To reiterate once more, discussion of Hogwarts Legacy is fully banned on ResetEra, regardless of whether or not you bought it, and regardless of how you feel about about the property in question. This decision was made to A.) provide a safe space to the trans community so as not to deal with trolling and harassment over a video game based upon an IP created by a bigot, and B.) to rebuke said bigot's continuous spearheading of transphobic oppression in real life. Skirting around this rule by posting reviews, thinkpieces, and reactions about the game, even when done in good faith, is non-negotiable.

When this topic is reopened, any and every member will be subjected to an immediate month's-long ban on sight for any mention of the game. No exceptions.


And I really have to ask. What will happen if the game is discussed. Will the trans member start committing suicide enmasse ? are they so fragile that a name mention will trigger them into depression? maybe this is the mental illness aspect they are ignoring by enabling them and not treating them?

the fucking jews were gassed and lit on fire by the Nazi did they start to commit suicide at the name of the word nazism or hitler? The Uyghurs are harassed and brainwashed everyday do they say dont talk take china's name with us? The cambodians were beheaded and there were walls of human skulls for miles by his men and do the cambodians line up and kill themselves when someone mentions pol pot?

and these were people who dealt with evil people

what has JKR done? said biological women should not be lumped in with trans women in order to erase their sole womanhood amongst the female group?

thats it? she had an opinion on what consitute a woman and that is considered a genocide? no i think that shows mental illness is so rampant that these words which SHOULD HAVE NO FUCKING BEARING ON YOUR LIFE AS AN INDIVIDUAL is making you twitch like a nut.

They also went subscriber-only chat and had their mods deleting any critical chats so that they can just enjoy supporting JK TERF in an echo chamber.

yeah I popped in very briefly when I saw that they were streaming it, and saw that it was sub only, and I didn't see any critical messages or supportive messages about being trans or anything of the sort, which felt pretty suss. Very disappointed.

Glad to see you’re just a lib that only cares about the asthetics. A true ally.

Donating to the Trevor Foundation is an excuse to hopefully let them get away with streaming the game they know benefits the transphobic movement.
Stabbing someone in the back and paying for the medical bills doesn't make it okay when they could just not stab them in the back.

@BetterThanToday
real disappointed. I loved Girlfriend Reviews, have done for ages, and whether they paid for the game or not, it’s a real shitty move

The themes in the game are antisemitic, there’s transphobic representation, and the promotion for the game is the opposite of allyship. Bad move.

Allies: listen to the LGBTQ+ fans and peers. Don’t play Hogwarts Legacy. Don’t promote it.

You’re raising money for the Trevor Project? Great. I’ve done the same. I’ve done it without also promoting this bigoted BS.

 all due respect as content creators, truly. Please don’t promote this game.

@BetterThanToday
people in replies keep sending me the clip of Shelby crying (on Twitch, and I wasn’t even there) - I’m sorry, I really am, but I’m not giving them abuse, I’m calling out performative allyship. It’s a discussion, not an assault.

fwiw I don't condone anyone bullying anyone else over playing the TERF game. But if you're playing it or defending it or trying to reason why it's not bad actually, you're getting a heavy dose of side-eye from me. You're signaling to marginalized people that you can't be trusted.

I like Girlfriend Reviews, I think they make good content and I think they're good people. I understand this is basically their job to play and review games. I think it's shit that people have been awful to them.

But man, y'all could have picked a different battle.

Remember, if you're ever unsure if you're hurting a minority group, your best bet is to actually ask the people in that community. 90% of the LGBTQ+ community will tell you that you should boycott this game, and that should be all the convincing you need.

I mean, cry-to-win is a stupid concept, no matter which side is doing it. These people aren't dickhead harassers because she cried, they're dickhead harassers because they were acting like dickheads. The fact that she cried is a sad result knowing that they were, in fact, harassing her, but all the "Look, she cried so you're in the wrong" comments on Twitter are just feeding into the same victimhood mentality that has caused this whole mess.

Out of curiousity, what is stopping you from signing up several of the many people who are ready, willing, and capable to help with modding duties?

It's been years now of the;
"Mods are busy, please understand"
"Then hire more mods?",
".....no."
..back-and-forth.

If there is something I'm missing then please fill me in but like....I, and many others, would like to help lighten the load.

Quote from: Jebusman, post: 100779802, member: 13379
I thought they mentioned before that little/no moderation decisions are done individually, so "hiring" more people may not necessarily make a difference if it's still being held up by waiting on input from certain mods.

Quote from: Mr. Snuffleupagus, post: 100781668, member: 27214
Even if that is the case then it’s a bottleneck that should/will eventually need to be addressed.

God forbid anything ever happened to any of the mods, however if life really got in the way for some of them, what contingencies are in place to deal with that?

Quote from: Royalan, post: 100785352, member: 41
Ehh...has it been this? Because I distinctly remember multiple instances of this being discussed, in this thread even, and its never been this.

The subject of new mods comes up (and is acted on) multiple times a year. Several new mods have been brought on within the last few months. Now, I won't say that the number of mods around at any given time has never been an issue, but that wasn't what I was speaking to here.

We're still in the Holiday/New Year period. This is a hectic time for most people. And, well, mods are people. So what often needs to be considered is not the number of mods, but the reality that we're all a bunch of people with numerous personal obligations, spread across timezones/countries, and we still prefer to handle most decisions as a collective. Modding is a collaborative effort, and the issues that arise from that aren't always solved by adding more of us to coral. That's really it.

And also -- and this isn't to single you out because I wasn't upset by your question and you were polite about it -- something to keep in mind is that a big part of the reason you don't see more mods actively participate in this thread is because we've noticed that even casual comments we make often get held up as emblematic of policy, when in reality I really meant nothing more by that line than, "Hey y'all, shit's busy rn." I think a casual back-and-forth is something a lot of people want to see in this thread, but sometimes that requires people taking what we say at face value.

It’s already February you fat fuck :dead :rofl

The rest of the post is some absolute tripe as well ::)

Legitimately insane
I mean, this might make sense if Joanne named the character but Laura's argument here seems to be that because it's the same franchise everyone is required to name people in the same way Joanne allegedly did?

WB Peon: "Your highness, here are the new character names for the video game."
Joanne: "No, redo them, I can't tell by their names what minority they are. Now, get out of my sight."

You're victim blaming. People are literally playing a Harry Potter video game in 2023 and you're victim blaming.

the harry potter shit really does make you wonder how anyone can still post on ree without feeling a bit dirty. first you weren't allowed to have the wrong opinion on the subject, then you weren't allowed to reference the wrongthink even if you were a right minded citizen yourself, now you're not even allowed acknowledge that the subject even exists. it's like a mad authoritarian banana republic that constantly has to edit reality to fit its own extremist dogma. there are plenty of shut ins who've been posting on there since the great schism and have no doubt had a good chunk of their world view shaped by how it operates and see titanium handed moral inquisitions, purges and pain-of-death conversation boundaries as part of a healthy society.

As expected a bunch of JP holos are playing the wizard game. I don't think there's much knowledge in the Japanese community about what JK has done and the franchise is huge over there, it can't be helped unfortunately.

I can't believe the Japanese are ignorant of the phobic crimes of Joanne
Also Twitter successfully bullied Pikamee into not streaming the game  :fbm

The trans don't seem to have gotten the memo that Turkish cities have been destroyed by earthquakes so charity drives for TRANS RIGHTS really aren't it right now.  :lol

They probably harassed her at Twitter, she is half foreigner and can speak English.

Fun fact: You know that cliche in anime where blonde foreigners characters get bullied at school because how they look? It happened to her IRL. Makes you think.

Weirdly, I didn't see many people giving Moona a hard time for playing it last night, although she did have her chat set to members-only.
