Between this and the “Hunter Biden personally funded Ukrainian biolabs!!” shit, Russia sure does know how to speak to their dumbfuck right-wing admirers in the West.

They know how to talk to you dumbfucks, too, who like Putin, think Nazis are hiding under everyone's bed.  But of course you only noticed a missed opportunity for a moment of reflection for your opponents.

Honestly I'm starting to think it's the other way around. Putin admires the right-wing (western) pundits.
He went on unhinged rants like this about gender and family values earlier(although not this extreme).

Now their policies are all over the place as the government tries to match the grievances, desires and wishes of the man in the Kremlin.
Having countries pay for oil with Bitcoin, not being allowed to use the word 'war', sending the army to search for drug addicted Soros funded WEF Nazi bandits in the suburbs of Kharkiv.
It's like some sort of right-wing neocon pundit wet dream and if they can't "win", they'll just copy the Afghanistan playbook and stay there for decades.

Thread gets a decent number of responses, people seem to enjoy guessing, and somebody does eventually figure it out 60+ posts in.

Thread is locked shortly after, about twenty minutes after it was made, with:

I see some sentiments that it is kind of mild. While sort of true again, I don't agree with persistently letting these slide. Do we let it slide here again? And when another member follows do we let that slide? Does it matter if the other member is in a different thread or in the same thread about the same issue?
The point that it was something for mods to reflect on is entirely irrelevant to me on this. There are proper channels for this. What if the point ponzies wanted mods to reflect on is actually wrong and based on some misread? Do we let it slide that it he is currently misrepresenting moderation? Does it matter since most likely people saw it and will run with it because they aren't mods and can't see what is what and there is now some more garbage narrative being perpetuated, generally at staff's expense? Has he tried to give genuine constructive critique through appropriate channels? I think about these things.

And its funny, the people saying fuck people because humans are terrible/evil or whatever are literally talking about themselves.

If you truly believe that you can make that assessment, then I'd love to see your psychology degree that qualifies you to do so.

This thread has really brought out the armchair psychologists on Era, so it would be nice to start seeing some qualifications.

Nice job leaving out the last sentence in that quote. Pal, this is a video game enthusiast forum where we can have all the varied opinions we want, and discuss and argue about them freely. Opinions such as “all video games that let you kill animals in them suck” even. If you want to discuss things with accredited psychologists, you might want to find another forum.

Constructive thread got upset about the animal thread

I don't think there's any action to take here, but I guess I just need to vent about this, and how it relates to the general tone of the forum.

This thread, is one of the most childish and dismissive reactions against an opinion I've seen in a while. I can only assume the OP is genuine in their feelings about not wanting to kill animals in games, and a bunch of the replies are basically just people coming in and talking about how much they love to kill animals in games. That or people saying, without a hint of irony, "it's just a game" or "it's not real". A bunch of people are just being really shitty to the OP for feeling a certain way, and while there are absolutely people who critiqued their reasoning(myself included), so many of the responses come off as extremely unempathetic, in a way that genuinely shocked me. Like there's always going to be people who respond in dismissive or unempathetic ways, but the sheer density of replies either telling the OP to not feel this way, or taunting them by promising to kill even more animals, is beyond the normal level of shittiness I see on the forum. Maybe I haven't been paying that close attention but this thread in particular really struck me as particularly aggressive.

I don't know...the way people responded to this thread just reminded me of the shitty, dismissive way people used to talk about how games affected them emotionally. No one goes "it's not real" when people say they're afraid of spiders in games, and it just fucking sucks that the tone around this opinion is so rotten because it's way in the minority. It's like people can't conceive that everyone approaches media from a different place and life experience.

To bring something up I mentioned a few pages ago in regards to the oft-mentioned "Souls Difficulty Option" argument that crops up a whole bunch:

I think, as a rule, we'd be way, way better off on this site if we didn't allow thread responses that are, directly, going "your problem isn't real, how you feel is wrong." Like, sitewide, as a basic standard of forum etiquette.

That's obviously something that can be massaged, let alone doing so in lighthearted and comedic circumstance, but I dunno what kinda good we've got with someone going "this upsets me" followed by nine full pages of fnonsense vitriol.

eah I ain't gonna mince words, that thread is one of the most embarrassing indictments of this site we've ever had. We can care about each other or we can have threads like that, where a user is mocked at length for expressing an extremely simple and easily understood mindset to an audience of braying chucklefucks who question the OPs mental state and social functioning.

Like, bluntly, we need a hard ban on posts that question another user's mental health in any antagonistic capacity. Hate is not just slurs and the Fuck Word, it's the rampant condescension that, were I to tell the one engaging in it, would be outraged at the prospect that they would do so. Wow, OP, don't you know it's not real??? I'm just concerned that the OP doesn't have the cognitive function of a 4 year old. I'm hoping the OP will go outside and meet someone. It's compassion if I do it, because my brain's normal and this fucking weirdo needs my gentle guiding slap to the back of the head.

Can you imagine any other expression of diet prejudice (and I use that term loosely because the 'diet' in this case was a month long binge in a Wendy's dumpster) we'd allow here so blatantly? Oh, you're overreacting, McSwordLady is empowered by her bikini, and if you have a problem with that it's not real so shut up. Why do you need queer protagonists? I only want them if they're not forced.

It's dehumanizing. If it cannot be understood as dehumanizing then we need checks and balances in place that the staff can easily reference as a violation of what is an extremely basic standard of human decency that the majority is happy to fuck around with. Those above examples? We know how to moderate them, because they're constantly and repeatedly felt to the point that the dog whistles are a siren, and we need that same kind of perspective for mental health.

(Snormy. I'm holding a big ol' neon sign reading VOTE SNORMY because Snormy has proven to have a thorough and compassionate understanding that can be imparted to the whole staff for reference)

I've never felt like I'm on neolib gamefaqs more than I did last night, so if nothing else it's given me an appreciation for the kind of thing the staff sees and then wonders why the fuck they bother. I appreciate that some of the more blatantly hostile posts are getting actioned, and I'm not so outraged that I can't understand the difficulty of reading tone, which is why I think it'd healthier in the long term to lay out preventative rules for engaging in threads like this. Both for the specific issue of questioning the mental health of another user, and more broadly with approaching threads to outright dismiss an argument.

OK, I'm going to be real. This thread IS NOT a place for you guys to do meta-commentary over other threads on the site. Straight up, that is not the point of this thread.

Not even sure you realize this but your post both tries to rationalize the police actions as well as assume he must have done something wrong

Dude just wears a jacket and has Black skin. Why would he not have some attitude about the encounter?

You yourself admit your own confrontation did not go this way. I have seen White people like myself be disrespectful, billigerent, and even down right threatening to police over things like a traffic ticket and it never escalates.

He is expected to constantly keep his emotions in check even when confronted with an injustice, you should ask yourself why.

B-dubs awesome post about the animal thread managed to pivot discussion slightly in that people now don't understand what the fuck the constructive thread is for:

I probably did a bad job of arguing this/making it clear, but I do feel that that thread can viewed as a microcosm of a problem on the forum wherein people blatantly are making no attempts to understand perspectives they understand or agree with. And I don't know what sort of actionable steps can be taken to stop that, maybe there isn't any, but I do think that thread is relevant to the overall tone of the board which is why I brought it up in the first place.

Maybe it’s getting close to crossing that line unintentionally but I’m hopeful that it’s not the intention. To me, the connection lies in recognising a pattern of unwelcome behaviour that is toxic to the community. While the last page has been about different topics (doggos, mental health, anti-poverty), they all point to a specific behaviour that is being put to your attention in the hopes of doing something about it.

Just to be clear, is what I mentioned not okay? Or do you mean the part where different members are giving their opinion about the topics themselves too much? I’m sorry for being very specific, but I always need to make sure :x

And perhaps the staff is already aware of this behaviour and they’re having difficulties on deciding how to deal with it?

I'm talking about demonstrably repeated trends in how this forum treats users it's allowed to get away with bullying, and more constructively, what can be done to stop it from occurring in the future both in terms of something of major relevance like preventing  20 pages of yokels questioning the mental capacity of a stranger, and maybe just making this place less constantly argumentative if we disallow, in broad terms, going into someone's thread to say their thoughts are stupid and invalid.

How do we approach solving this if we can't point to direct examples of it occurring? The reason we have this thread is because shit kept getting bad enough that we needed a place to talk it out and where direct reference to other threads that prompted a user to come here has occurred as recently as this past week.

John Dunbar, at least, gets it:

Trashbandit has a problem with a recurring posting trend they have observed in this community, and then pointed to an example of a topic where this sort of toxicity happens. They specifically pointed to patterns of behaviours they took issue with. How is this not on topic?

Hell, I don't even know if I agree with trashbandit (I didn't read the example thread in question) per se, but I actually found myself nodding because I remember something like that happening before, where people trotted up "it's not real, it's just pixels" over and over as a way to "win" the argument.

This is a really, really stupid argument being made.

These are random enemies. Not characters. And even if they were characters, whatever emotional response you have shouldn't meaningfully upset you like they were real. That's an unhealthy lack of cognitive dissonance. It's not the game - it's you.

And look, I'm not trying to drag anyone here. I just think this is the result of poor mental health. Studies have shown that 4 year olds are capable of this kind of dissonance.

Of course. This is a problem I have seen on this forum. This bizarre and misguided idea that the EU is some liberal anti racist bastion.

European culture is deeply deeply racist at its core.

This whole war, its just tough to ignore how racist the media's coverage has been. When its white ppl getting killed they lose their shit. Completely shameless. Most of these guys are the same people who ignore or cheers white Israelis slaughtering indigenous Palestinians. TBH, it makes it very difficult for me to care as much about the situation while its rooted in so much racism.

"White people should stop trying to police the world and mind their own business"

*White people ignore conflicts in other parts of the world and only intervene when a conflict erupts in their own region*

"Why do white people only intervene when it's white people being killed?"

Still waiting for Nep to crawl out of her doughnut binge. Hoping for a full blown rant about YTs loving their pets

I think she will be aiming to disprove that  lashing out like a raging entitled maniac is a White man's luxury.

Are Royalan and B-Dubs in a race to the bottom to see who can be the pissiest?

Y'all wanted to see the human side of mods, here it is.

Good morning. Oh wait, it's 2PM where I am.

I went out last night, got trashed with my friends. Sang loud karaoke with my friends for the first time in years. KISSED A BOY for the first time in years. Felt good. Felt fucking good.

To wake up to this.

Goodbye.

John Dunbar is now banned, but currently no banner on that post and I didn't see any banners in his other recent posts. Assuming it's a perm, though.

something tells me they didn't have three mods (lol) go over this ban. didn't even bother with a ban message:

(Image removed from quote.)

So fucking pathetic.

Between you and blame space, they've now removed any semblance of levity and fun from the forum.

Fat4All and mimic are still there

Im not scared of killer robots or demons or zombies or aliens. None of that shit is real, why should I be scared? Even the most down-to-earth concept, serial killers w/ butcher knives, aren't scary. Killers are human and can be mollywhopped like anyone else, and im okay to go down swinging

You know whats scary to me? Being a visual artist and all of a sudden losing my eyesight permanently

Or maybe being forced to take care of a kid

What about your car breaking down and now you have to pay lots of money to get it fixed?

Im serious there should be a genre of non-jumpscare, relatable horror stuff

Perfectly reasonable thread, but locked and told to bury it in the OT. I think the nintendies are angry.

Is that not just a parody thread trying to tie in the most unlikely coincidences to the current "game du jour"?

IDK about you guys, but I'm starting to notice that the mods and members of that forum sometimes aren't all that consistent

[Transhuman]

They've shot themselves in the foot so many times that now the bullets just hit dirt.
