Oh wow.

I dated this girl.

It's really a small world. She's not a grifter and was an activist for years, especially in the Baltimore area.
Agreed. It's a bit surreal reading the thread, sure. But I wanted to offer that, at least from my perspective, she has sufficient bona fides to not be a grifter.
Grifter confirmed.

It’s literally what a journalist does.

This is why I referenced NYT/WP.

We have reached the point of the obvious being SO obvious that we actually do lambast journalists who do this. There are multiple threads where we shit on journalists for still thinking there's worth in mining the middle class white MAGA diner goer for their opinions on anything. There's isn't. We know.

She gets no points. This is not a fresh idea. She's not brave. This is not useful.

And for some reason, we continue to look for reasons to give boring white racists and those who sympathize with them all the attention they crave.

It's tired. Tired and useless.

We have several 🧵-marks about this. I’d say there’s no privilege for anyone to just ignore those. If you had read those, you would know that by now - actually by one week ago - the mods are tired of explaining again and again that payment was not in any way an issue, not wanted and shouldn’t be further raised as a concern in regards to this topic..

Not true, but the threadmark was never updated with this clarification.

Summary 1?
Like, as if it’s threadmarked for fun. You would‘ve found it immediately if you tried.

You seem to be confused. I asked the author of the Summary 1 threadmark to clarify that it was not a unanimous decison by the staff. It still hasn't been updated.

I’d go with what is available and there clearly is something available. By now we probably would’ve heard something different I guess. The summaries alone are definitely well written enough to read the room.
Wow, BIPOC staff erasure.

And this is the kind of thing Royalan supports smh

Add that incel filled thread to the list of “wow does Era fucking hate women” list

Also note the number of white people in that thread going “fucking white people AM I RIGHT”. These people have no dignity to speak of, embarrassing. I guess thats what happens when you spend 24/7 letting the BCT tell you are a cracker who is racist just because you are white and have no backbone to challenge their bullshit.

Weird thread. All these things can interfere with -ANY- game. Does not mean they do, just they can. They're pointing it out to give people first steps when they're trying to troubleshoot some issues.

God damn "bitch eating crackers" syndrome on this forum sometimes.
Quote from: elenarie, Verified
Yea, not sure what this thread is going after. The post and the information makes sense.

* 4 categories in there try to interfere with and inject into the renderer and are known to cause crashes that devs sometimes have to work around.
* virtualisation can obviously install not great drivers and interfere with networking as it can create very weird NAT setups if set up badly.
* VPN and similar apps completely change the underlying networking infrastructure on the machine.
* p2p apps can congest traffic on the PC, breaking matchmaking rules and similar gates that have been set to provide a better experience.
* voip apps can also inject into the renderer by doing picture in picture.

The info makes sense.

This place could really use less shit posting like this thread.
Quote
Yes, all those programs are likely to interfere with games.

And what on earth is that thread title and shitty interpretation by OP?
Quote
probably a bunch of people who aren't primarily pc gamers, probably a bunch of people who aren't used to debugging pc games, and probably some people want to air grievances with ubisoft. because again, this is absolutely not new or unique.
Quote
Most of these things make perfect sense as to possibly interfering with a game.
All this is just a basic ass article on troubleshooting game issues. I’d do the same thing if it’s some weird stuff going on. Esp when you have stuff that may take resources randomly or get prioritized in you OS.

tweet says:
If you are experiencing performance issues or crashing while playing on PC, third-party software may be the underlying cause.

yall:
ubisoft says this is the reason why their game isn’t performing well!!!

It’s like some of you just look for random as shit to be upset about from the most banal stuff lol. Even the title of this thread is greatly exaggerating what is even being conveyed.

Those people -- the ones acting as if this is a disaster or referring to it as a "bust" -- know what they're doing. They see a chance to take shots at the MCU because the streak of consistently well-reviewed movies has finally been broken... by a movie that is getting mixed/divisive reviews at worst.

Based on the text of many of these reviews, my guess is that this film ends up having a number of people even here on Era who think it is one of the best MCU films and a lot of people who truly despise it.

It clearly isn't going to be a near-universally beloved film like Endgame but it's not going to some weird meme as The Dark World became. I feel like Eternals is going to be a truly divisive film. Some will, unfortunately and predictably, spin that into the film being a failure.

I guess they'll push the site in other ways to try and increase legitimate sign ups?
Interestingly enough going by user numbers there have been over 100,000 accounts made so far. The first half of July this year that number hit 100k. As of this month there’s roughly 104k/105k-ish accounts.

 105 000(total accounts) - 54 000(accounts active) = 51 000(bans)?

sigh.... day eleven
I get it, capitalism, mods choose to do this voluntarily etc, but on the presumption Cerium has/will net the bulk if not all of that $4.5m, that sure is shitty, especially for a site that routinely espouses support for work ethics, equality, fairness, other liberal virtues etc.

The decent thing for Cerium to do would be to offer some sort of payment/bonus to each mod that helped during the 4 years. Having variable pay outs as per the time they've been a mod etc is fair too.

I would certainly also be interested to learn the details or circumstances around how the shares from the previous Era shareholders/co-owners were purchased or acquired by Cerium, and also for how much.
Quote
Pretty much where I stand on this. The site was founded as a community effort (albeit only 0.1% actually “done” something to contribute to the creation and migration). So for one individual to hold the keys and just make off with $4.5m with no community input is absurd.

I, and imagine most of the community, thank Cerium for his efforts of taking us this far and the work he and others have put in - but this sale makes him look opportunistic who seized an opportunity for a pay day. He used the Gaf drama and community for his own benefit.

Whatever the mods public opinion on receiving payment has been covered and there’s no point reiterating that. However their attitude to this entire thing has been very poor; I understand they’re frustrated of going in circles explaining things over and over but they’re basically just laughing at the community now. It’s a complete and utter disregard and it isn’t even holding a professional party line.

We as a community aren’t owed anything, we’re just a commodity and have zero say or importance to the team is how this comes across in this thread.

I’m not doom and gloom, they aren’t suddenly going turn it into a far-right forum, have 20 pop ups, or whatever ludicrous thing other people have suggested - but the sheer fact it isn’t “one of us” owning and operating the site is a kick in the teeth of the community.

Quote from: Cerium
To clarify: When we first started the site, a couple other people had ownership shares. As the other founders retired, those who had shares sold them to me, until I ended up as the last one standing.

Gotta love the way he describes his plan to buy everyone out.  He just found himself, all alone, da last wittle boy with the whole stake after all my fwends retired within 1 year :( .  I bet numbnuts Royalan was the first one to buy that story.  Cerium is my best friend, after he made that four and a half million, he offered to take me to Jamba Juice if he ever visited me.  He said he'd come visit.

I would guess some of those (inactive) accounts may be unapproved users, spam bots, non-premium email so never apporved, etc?

The posts per day/hour stats were funny. Every year, posts per hour have dropped. Even during corona (year 4), when online shit was booming:

Quote
From these threads, you can see these posts I made checking in on the post/member count each year:

Year 1:

14,152,257 posts in one year, or 1,179,354 a month, or 38,773 a day, or 1,615 an hour

With 41,336 members that means the average member has posted just 342 posts, which is under 1 a day on average

Year 2:

25,733,261 posts in two years, which is an average of 1,072,219 a month, or 35,270 a day, or 1,469 an hour

With 48,264 members that means the average member has posted 533 posts

Year 3:

We're currently on 36,738,116 posts in 3 years, which is an average of 1,020,503 a month, or 33,550 posts a day, or 1,397 posts an hour

We're on 52,004 members, which means the average member has posted 706 times

Year 4:

Posts: 45,570,770. Users: 54,500.

This means we're on an average of 949,391 posts a month, 31,212 posts a day, or 1,300 posts an hour

The average poster has therefore made 836 posts

Edit: Wait, he just averaged cumulative posts. Thought he was averaging yearly posts. Disregard Brb leasing a Nissan Versa because I can't read.

In just over two minutes, she displays false pride, arrogance, denial and plea of ignorance. Instead of actually giving her fans some real and honest answers.


She hasn't learned a thing or at least refuses to listen to anyone through her lack of humility.

Her true Naïveté comes through her lack of self-awareness. It's no excuse though. She planned this for two years she says. She's not that stupid to not realize there is NO science to back up this product, she had two years to figure that much out for Pete's sake! lol!!

This woman is just stupid enough to let her pride and greed to continue to dictate her position in all this mess, and that's plenty stupid.


You'd also think, when one's venturing into a business deal as a "co partner/founder" or whatever... that involves hundreds and thousands of dollars, they may be wise enough to have a business lawyer and get proper counsel instead of digging themselves deeper into this silly mess.

Okay this post is legitimately concerning and definitely borders on misogynist but since we're here to have fun:

This creep says they've learned everything they need to know about someone after watching a video for two minutes because "It's a good body language and character study video."

And then goes on to insinuate that she's stupid for not realizing there's no science to back the product.

After claiming to study her body language in order to learn everything they need to know about them.

Any then has the audacity to claim she lacks self-awareness.

I've learned everything I need to know about Johnny Cage itS from reading their post for two minutes.

Honestly at this point, I think the Congesssional committee should end and recommend that those involved with the insurrection be given criminal charges and the military should take over the investigation.

Every Republican in Congress and protestor who attacked the Capitol that participated should be considered enemy combatants and no different than a foreign country attacking the US. Their citizenship should be stripped as well as their title and rank in Congress. If they don’t like that, well they need to stop breaking the law and give up their sources. The Republicans are more scared of their base than any consequences from DOJ or Congress.

Otherwise, the next time there’s an election and Republicans lose, they won’t recognize the result and will continue to presume office or worse and there’s another attack to prevent certification.

I'm not a troll, just have a different view than you. But you do seem to have trouble understanding the difference between your own opinion and what a fact is. You seem extremely emotionally invested into the Marvel brand and dont see much beyond protecting said brand in conversation. So I am fine with ending the conversation here.

Some of y'all legitimately create an alternate reality in your mind.

Hardcore Disney/MCU shills like ZeoVGM literally cant take when people criticise Disney properties. Even lightly.

And always fun when RT scores which Reee mods and protected posters weaponise on non Disney movies give us delicious meltdowns like this.

Whats the likelihood that unlike on say, DC movies we won't get constant RT score updates in the thread title

Also, those 'enemy combatants' should be force-fed castor oil as punishment.  I think i read that in a book somewhere.

I dunno, Generations was pretty goddamn bad.  Man I was hyped for that movie, too.  Had the battle damaged Enterprise toy, fat Kirk action figure and all that shit.

Insurrection is fine, it’s dumb but so are all the TNG movies.  Generations was terrible and Nemesis was fucking pants.  First contact is the only decent TNG movie, and it still is lesser than most of the TOS movies.

Not giving that shit opinion piece any clicks.

I'm a big hard rock fan and with its blues roots it was never even that "aggro", especially compared to much of the stuff that came out since 2000.

This is just another insecure guy looking for answers in all the wrong places.

Also, isn't conservative, right-wing, corporate-bootlicking publisher Springer about to buy Politico? Or maybe it already happened recently.

Edit: Just looked it up... they completed the acquisition 6 days ago. And now we see Breitbart-quotes in their articles. Go figure.
