Bishop has lost his goddamn mind.  Wow.

he has always been a sensitive manchildren. People just made a cult out of it and it seemed more comical. But he's always been shutting down conversation. The problem is he has always been the highest authority, now the world politely told him to go and fuck off and he can't even

Sick of these Trump threads.

Quote from: Vince DiCola
Wow. Maybe keep this stuff to non gaming. If you wanna debate Trump and the election that's cool.
But this seems a bit of a stretch to have in the gaming forum.

Who said he is fascist?
Quote
People should be more careful with the use of the word 'fascism'. I don't think that most people even know what it means.
And showing a cartoon doesn't make it true.
Quote
But calling a whole movement fascist is apparently ok and if people say something about that they 'shouldn't click on the thread'.
What a discussion.

So is anyone who comments on the extremely inflammatory and exaggerated post of OP getting banned? I wonder what political views the mods hold...

Yes continued diversity is a great place to start. Diversity is good. It was before. It is now. It still will be tomorrow.

The OP is a sad reminder of how our education system is stacked with liberals bent on indoctrinating young Americans with Leftist bullshit.

Amazing as it sounds, OP, everything you think you know is a lie. So before you go off burning a flag or trying to wage war against your "oppressors," give it some time. I think you will find that all this "Trump voters are bigoted, racist, homophobic rubes!!!111" stuff is just a bunch of hooey propagated to create an entire generation of useful idiots.

Change your news sources; they are lying to you. Use your head and think critically for yourself.

Lol.  Lime's kill count has to be 200+ by now.  I like it, by the way.  The more that get banned the faster that place implodes on itself.  It's obviously a mod alt or some other protected member's alt but this strategy is going to backfire on them.

I'm telling you Lime is not Dragona. Dragona took a complete sabbatical from gaf and absolutely hates the site. It's like expecting Blackace or Red Scarlet to make an alt and go back to posting after being humiliated by staff. I cannot stress how much Dragona hates gaf and would groan any time it was mentioned.

NBA GAF imploded and he was blamed for not properly moderating the thread.  De-modded.

Moved on to slaent with a lot of the old NBA-GAFers.
didn't he and the original basketball group of users get purged from the site by tyler?
more or less.  After a few complaints from some users outside of the clique, I think Duckroll came in first trying to swing his dick around and the NBA regulars basically told him to fuck off.    :lol

Eventually Lore shut the whole thing down for not being inclusive.

As for lyre, he's not the writing type and wouldn't make a thread like that Trump gaming thread. He would laugh at that shit. Lyre is also a disgruntled gamer. As is Dragona. As far as I know, lime likes modern games. Any time I'd talk to draggy or lyre about modern games they'd make fun of how bad they look and how they feel passed by the industry. I do not know lime's taste in games but I know for a fact that Dragona and especially lyre would be laughing their asses off at such a weird desperate thread

I'd have to see Lime's Mega Man skills and love for competitive Pokemon to see if this Lyre.

Dragona loves Vallyrie Profile and so does Lime but...what other games does Like like?

With all the election shenanigans, and having to crush the smell of free thought and revolution in the air on off topic  The mods have obviously been neglecting gaming side.

Even for Gaf some of the PS4 Pro and PSVR astroturfing comments and threads from the last few days are hilariously blatant.

And...welcome to every video game generation cycle ever.  Prices fall and consoles can be had for cheaper prices.  What is the point here?  If you want a PC, it's for better performance/graphics, cheaper game prices, tons of games that are only on PC, and then stuff like mods and using it for things besides gaming.   You're paying $299 for what is now the "outdated" lower-end PS4 model and then have to pay an additional fee to play online and higher prices for new releases.

lol late but yes, when political and social issues are pushed to the forefront of our collective conscious, and there is real, pervasive concern about minority welfare and our future as a nation, I, a proud citizen-warrior of my people, turn not to my fellow countryman, my community, my political leaders for answers, hope, and a path forward, but nay, the disposable entertainment output multinational conglomerates. it is only there, the virtual land in which i stake my claim, that the the genesis of new, progressive, liberal, and robust ideas, the ideas that will shape the fortunes of future generations, can be allowed, established, communicated, and disseminated. i encourage every one of you to not turn your back on our nation even in this darkest of hour, but strike back. strike back and preorder. strike back and change your avatar on this forum to one of the many available within the latest AAA marketing campaign thread with a 20-post long opening salvo. and yes, strike back and buy the DLC. we'll need every tool at our disposal.

Man, I'm a goddamn idiot for thinking GAF would change just a little bit after their echo chamber shattered Tuesday night. It seems the staff and 'Lore will just double down on the path they are on.

As for that Lime thread, he/she is such a goddamn troll :lol
GAFers really need to to educate themselves about Lime's shtick.

They can't be all that bad. They've got a thread (multiple threads) in the OT right now straight shitting on Hillary and her crap campaign.

Do you have any examples of the staff doubling down? I mean, aside from that Lime thread?

If they are, I'd probably say it's because of the violence and awfulness thrown peoples way in the wake of the election results. So they probably feel obligated to protect their users but aren't going at it in the best manner. I have to think they have the sites best interest in mind. They probably don't want to validate the opinions of assholes, but the problem with that tactic is you censor potentially useful positions worth considering. I've seen a lot of liberal sites talk about echo chambers this week and being more open to opposing views. I'd say give them time. The wounds are still fresh and raw.

Like why go to a protest now, so fucking stupid should have been campaigning before instead of snapchatting you mongloids

You have to have an IQ deficiency to waste your time on that shit now

Having been to an anti-Trump protest and planning on going to more, among protesters there's two camps:

1. People who are protesting Trump. Not necessarily that he won, because he won fair and square after all. But his rhetoric, his policies, and protesting him from enacting them. This is political protest made up of informed voters for the most part. This is a legitimate form of protest because it creates pressure on Trump and his administration before he's even inaugurated. It will also lower his already low approval rating.

2. People who are protesting that Hillary won the popular vote. These people want the electoral college abolished and are complaining that Hillary "won" even though she ran a half assed lazy af campaign. These people only want this "change" to benefit themselves and don't really understand how the process works and apparently only CA, TX, NY, and FL votes to count for anything.

To be honest, I don't trust a lot of them because I don't know how many of them didn't bother to vote or voted third party.
