has anyone even asked where nanashrew got those screenshots from? was nanashrew in a private mod discord somehow? morrigan wouldn't be talking like that in a general era discord like poliera etc.


Quote from: SubvertedTripe
The funny thing is individual mods dealing with years long trolling and harrassment campaigns from all over

re: this

I don't know that anyone is actually trolling/harassing any mods directly, they ban anyone who does it to their face, and it's not like anyone is out there TPing their actual house

I don't count poking fun at them from afar as harassment any more than it's harassment for anyone to laugh at anything, trump, nicki minaj, jj abrams, bean dad, whatever you got


but I would note that era has like 50 mods and the majority of them have never been mentioned in this thread or anywhere else because they don't do or say anything embarrassing

So this might be a stupid question, but who "owns" Era (technically or otherwise)? Now that I think about I actually have no clue. It's not Nepenthe, is it?

If not, can this be escalated further up the ladder somehow?

Does nepnep even technically own her Nissan Versa let alone a website? :lol

It's super hilarious to me that they're using 'off site harassment campaign', since literally Morrigan was off-site trying to use her mod powers to encourage posters to post in a specific way on-site. Like literally doing what you'd expect to be the definition of off-site harassment campaign, but nah, the actual problem is just acknowledging it on-site.

has anyone even asked where nanashrew got those screenshots from? was nanashrew in a private mod discord somehow? morrigan wouldn't be talking like that in a general era discord like poliera etc.

I ended up checking and he uses the same name on Twitter as he did on Era. Not a ton of additional information on there, but he is or was apparently a mod on whatever Discord:
https://twitter.com/Nanashrew/status/1440762872171155471

Also apparently was just legit mad at Morrigan encouraging brigading the thread:

i'm not really bothered. i felt that needed to be shared because there is no additional context that makes what morrigan did good, and enabled drive by posted in the MC thread.

Like I said, Nanashrew is a scumbag. Not surprised he was in the mod discord. More surprised that he was mad about Morrigan shitting on that thread (because I’m sure the guy was in many communities were people shit on other people and engineer attacks against them).

who has access to the era discords????

POST SCREENSHOTS

Not posting screenshots, but I can give the general vibe of them.  Certain already active server got 50 new members in under 10 minutes.  People shit talking the staff, new sales site in the works, assumptions about this being the end of Era, permabanned members shrugging over getting permabanned, stuff like that.

Fun times.

Bro, don't give away all our VTuberERA secrets. :shh

You joke, but I actually like how detached it is from all this, lol.  People there rightfully don't care about Era in general for the most part.

has anyone even asked where nanashrew got those screenshots from? was nanashrew in a private mod discord somehow? morrigan wouldn't be talking like that in a general era discord like poliera etc.
:idont

Playstation Era discord, where she's a mod.  I'm not in there nor do I know if Nanashrew was in there or if he got it from someone else, but that's where it's from. 

And she would absolutely talk like that.  I was in the PCera discord at one point and she would regularly say that and worse stuff about regular users.

with this attitude of mobhunting anyone who isn't pro whatever is going on? good luck. go make your own forum or something.

I get that there are a lot of wannabe mods with their lips permanently attached to mod assholes, but Jesus Christ.

The ones always doing the mob hunting, finally on the receiving end. What a shame.

by the way nintendoera discord has gained 242 new members today and counting, it seems like the primary lifeboat at this time

they renamed themselves to nintendo pipeline in the past hour and are formally distancing from era

everyone is shitting on era mods there but I think it's a "get it out of your system" thing because as per the rules they really just want to focus on the games and not drama

These Discord receipts might not be happening if B-Dubs hadn't sanctioned off-site sleuthing during the CDPR disaster. All it did was give users the green light to hunt of shit off-site to get others banned. B-Dubs probably didn't think it would be used against him and his mod pals.

Funny how so many of their problems--to this day--stem from that CP 2077 debacle :lol

How in the fuck do you not clean house of the current mod team after this? Not that the next batch will be any better but still, this is an absolutely (hilarious) massive shit show. Then you have Morrigan saying “hey we talk shit when we are off duty!” Right as they come back and ban members for talking shit every single day. People really are, finally, seeing that you have the protected gang on there and then everyone else.

The extra added funny, at this point, is that from what I remember Nepenthe was elevated to admin from mod in large part because of her response when the Asian Era summit stuff flared up. After everyone was pissed at staff, she stepped in with a less harsh and more conciliatory tone, and seemed to at least temporarily calm people down. I mostly just remember a lot of users being super grateful to her specifically in the early stages, before the constructive thread got going and people gradually realized fuck-all was actually changing.

Reusing her in this particularly community flare up might have seemed smart because of that, but this one has way more whites involved soooo

Once again, I’m amazed at the stories of RE mods spending long hours and losing sleep modding the forum. Why? You’re a grown-ass adult, nobody is holding you against your will, just leave. Just log out and never come back. Don’t even tell anyone you’re leaving, just fucking ghost them. If it was a close-knit community with a lot of close friends, I’d understand putting in some effort, but all the sniping and pettiness and narcing that goes on, who has the time for all that shit? “Umm yeah, we’re gonna need you to come in this Saturday and review 20,000 reports of bad faith arguments and possible alts in the Media Creates thread.” Fuck that shit, I’m just gonna play some Tales of Arise instead, I heard it’s selling pretty well.

Way to take everything out of context, but nothing is new.

People wanted to post in support of the staff post, but literally said they were afraid to get dogpiled. So I said it's cool, if you go in there in good faith to defend us, and you don't attack people, you're good

But nah gotta twist it all out of proportion like always.

Anyway, all of this is very funny because I never even had anything to do with any of this. But none of you care, you just want your pound of flesh. Well congrats, you got it.

The "She should be let slide because she's a KF target!" thing just baffles me; it'd make sense if she'd been a target for more of the issue, but the seemingly bannable shit she did is why she's a target.

But also it's Dmax so like I'm not expecting logic.
Quote from: Dmax3901
Here's what I think, as someone who was initially critical of the response to Chris being banned for a day:

- mods have fucked up in multiple, easily avoidable ways since this all kicked off.
- a lot of the shit people got banned for after the initial Chris banning was justified, it's irrelevant to me what came out later, at that point we were all operating on the same information.
- the timezone defense was bizarre.
- CVX should no longer be a mod.
- Bruno saying "someone like Nepenthe being a mod tells you all you need to know" on twitter has discriminatory connotations and I imagine that is why they were perm'd.
- I'll also note that I personally feel there is a difference between a public twitter account easily found via searching vs screencaps of a discord requiring an invite when it comes to venting about forum drama.
- I agree with what hupla posted above regarding Morrigan, she's stepped down as a mod, is only human, and has had full-blown kiwi farm harassment campaigns levied at her (not criticism, harassment). Cut her some slack.

Despite all of this I totally understand why people would just want to be done with this place after such a cluster fuck of a situation. I still think this place at its core is worth sticking with, working with the mods to improve it rather than bailing entirely. But again, I don't blame anyone for doing so.

Also cites the "someone like" as being obviously a racist jab at Nepenthe, so that does seem to be the official explanation for why it's ok to ban for off-site harassment despite racism not being in the ban message.

I can only assume Quasi's death is coming:
Quote from: Quasi
Quote from: Dmax3901
I was just explaining why I think he was perm'd, because a lot of people seem oblivious to the optics of what he said. What would you say he meant by that tweet?
I think he just meant that he didn't think that Nepenthe had the right qualities/personality to be a mod. As a person. And if the last post in the MC thread is anything to go by he might have been on to something...

You started making things up so you are ok with it! See we can all do it, funny how it only bothers you when it's pointed at you.

The "She should be let slide because she's a KF target!" thing just baffles me; it'd make sense if she'd been a target for more of the issue, but the seemingly bannable shit she did is why she's a target.

But also it's Dmax so like I'm not expecting logic.

Here's what I think, as someone who was initially critical of the response to Chris being banned for a day:

- mods have fucked up in multiple, easily avoidable ways since this all kicked off.
- a lot of the shit people got banned for after the initial Chris banning was justified, it's irrelevant to me what came out later, at that point we were all operating on the same information.
- the timezone defense was bizarre.
- CVX should no longer be a mod.
- Bruno saying "someone like Nepenthe being a mod tells you all you need to know" on twitter has discriminatory connotations and I imagine that is why they were perm'd.
- I'll also note that I personally feel there is a difference between a public twitter account easily found via searching vs screencaps of a discord requiring an invite when it comes to venting about forum drama.
- I agree with what hupla posted above regarding Morrigan, she's stepped down as a mod, is only human, and has had full-blown kiwi farm harassment campaigns levied at her (not criticism, harassment). Cut her some slack.

Despite all of this I totally understand why people would just want to be done with this place after such a cluster fuck of a situation. I still think this place at its core is worth sticking with, working with the mods to improve it rather than bailing entirely. But again, I don't blame anyone for doing so.

Also cites the "someone like" as being obviously a racist jab at Nepenthe, so that does seem to be the official explanation for why it's ok to ban for off-site harassment despite racism not being in the ban message.

I can only assume Quasi's death is coming:

I was just explaining why I think he was perm'd, because a lot of people seem oblivious to the optics of what he said. What would you say he meant by that tweet?
I think he just meant that he didn't think that Nepenthe had the right qualities/personality to be a mod. As a person. And if the last post in the MC thread is anything to go by he might have been on to something...



Well, that's a big fucking lie cuntlips!

I gotta be honest I read the sales thread and it just seemed like a bunch of toxic children getting mad they couldn't continue to be toxic children. The ban that kicked it all off was for a single day, lol. Also, the comparisons to Asian era and trans era were laughable, it's a fucking sales data thread.


Quote from: Dmax3901, post: 73755961, member: 4989

The ban might've been misguided, but again, it wasn't a permanent ban or even a long one. The mods came in with guidelines moving forward which suggests that, regardless of how things were before, there are now more strict rules that will need to be followed.

The mass bans you mention were largely people being openly hostile towards the mods, continuing to post things directly in violation of the rules that had just been laid out and making inappropriate comparisons to the situations with minority groups on Era. I even saw someone insinuate a mod was somehow tied to an industry executive and thats why people were being banned, lol.


Dmax being a total bitch and angling for that mod position :lol

Yeah, people don't like Nepenthe because she's black.  It's not because she's a psychotic hot head larping as a civil rights era leader while spending all her time behind a keyboard and spending tens of thousands of dollars on fursuits as she excises other marginalized communities like the Trans and Asian ones on the forum she moderates.  Can't be that all.

Oh well there goes Morrigan. Lurching back to her sordid grief hole underneath Westboro Baptist Church.

Morrigan will continue to be an insufferable user with protected status to boot. Not much has changed just because they can't ban people. Scratch that, a new account that will be modded is being whipped up as we speak.

SubvertedTrope is either a brown-noser angling for a mod spot or is a joint mod account they use to shit-talk the users. At this point either option is equally likely.

I mean, given the tone of Nepenthe's lock message, they could definitely be planning to give Morrigan the Royalan treatment--she stepped down of her own volition because of not-on-forum stuff, and their act of banning the guy who posted the screenshots immediately after another mod lamented people not ratting out off-site misbehavior more makes it super clear where their sympathies lie. Once she's had some time to recover they can just add her back in. If the Sales/Nintendo exodus actually sticks, there won't be that many people around who know/care to complain if they do.

Given that they hit the dogwhistle talking point right around the same time Dmax brought it up, and the influx of defense posts in the thread happening in a cluster, I just assumed both are in a discord somewhere with some mods and have been encouraged to help out by defending the team.

Once again, I’m amazed at the stories of RE mods spending long hours and losing sleep modding the forum. Why? You’re a grown-ass adult, nobody is holding you against your will, just leave. Just log out and never come back. Don’t even tell anyone you’re leaving, just fucking ghost them. If it was a close-knit community with a lot of close friends, I’d understand putting in some effort, but all the sniping and pettiness and narcing that goes on, who has the time for all that shit? “Umm yeah, we’re gonna need you to come in this Saturday and review 20,000 reports of bad faith arguments and possible alts in the Media Creates thread.” Fuck that shit, I’m just gonna play some Tales of Arise instead, I heard it’s selling pretty well.

COUNTERPOINT

At 732am this morning, a mod /admin on this very forum deleted a thread and actioned me via pm instead of walking away

Why is anyone reading the bore before noon

if it was an actual person unaffiliated with any mods, you have to wonder at what point do you think to yourself ok I appreciate the support but the fawning is creepy

when do you say, I get that you want to help dude but I'm a grown ass adult and don't need this patronizing shit in order to function

She's also the only minority on the mod team, so of course anyone who dislikes her must be racist
