i just realized something
you know evilore bans people over petty stuff and that's been the gaf way for a long time
so people get banned for dumb shit they come crawling back right? it always happens
i dont think that's gonna change because lol evilore
but now you have resetera
so if people get banned for some bullshit, they might try signing up for resetera if they haven't already, and start posting there
then they might decide they like it better there
so in the past bullshit bans didn't necessarily mean losing a user but now it might
now if evilore was sensible, this would give him pause and he'd reflect upon this fact
draconian moderation will be the end of gaf, brehs
OK seriously now, if you think this will happen more than the opposite you're kidding yourself.
Evilore was always kind of an asshole and a PR nightmare but before Steve Youngblood, Cyan and Mumei joined the mod team the forum was functioning pretty smoothly, he sometimes had his meltdowns like the one today but it was nothing too disruptive. I bet it was them that proposed their buddy besada and the rest of the loons after btw. Evilore the last few years was practically begging his mod team to stop being assholes in those public posts every 3-6 months enumerating all their bullshit but not one of them gave a shit.
If you think this honeymoon will last for long you don't know anything about the internet the last 5 years, every single community SJ Ws have taken over they have turned into an authoritarian shithole. They just can't resist and especially fanatics like the ones gaf had, I'm certain that they will eventually find a way to ignore the forum's transparency settings and fuck people over more and more until we have a GAF v3. Bookmark my post and in a year if Resetera isn't the forum we're constantly making fun of because of their mod bullshit you can call me out

because I will definitely say I told you so if I'm right
