Benji, when can we expect to see you sporting a "vERAfied" tag?

I mean, if some barely literate moron who wrote a couple of unpaid reviews for a multiplayer-focused fansite can get it, why not the resident video games sales scion of ERA?

[Cauliflower Of Love]

sorry cheebos

I gotta stop backseatmod banning people. Stop taking my work era mods!

[benjipwns]

they all just ran back to PoliERA so I don't even see the point of locking it for half an hour plus:

I feel like half of Era is going to implode when Bernie loses the primary again. The 2020 thread is a good time.

That's why I avoid the 2020 thread and politics OT threads in general. Nice little bubble of Bernard-haters here (and some bros but they're mostly tolerable).

If he runs as a 3rd party candidate just to play spoiler (despite the fact that he didn't do it in 2016 and knows he wouldn't win), I hope you all properly respond in kind. Bringing on ilk like Sirota makes me think he wouldn't be above it... regardless of what he's gone on the record with in the past.

Yeah, at this point, I wouldn't be surprised.

OFFICIAL STAFF COMMUNICATION
I know this is a primary and it's going to get heated, but the level of animosity in this topic is unsustainable and unacceptable. Chill out, dial it back a few notches, and get back to your discussion. We won't last the remaining year and change if this keeps happening.

Could the Christchurch video being considered a snuff film?

[VomKriege]

Everyone on NeoGAF was 100% against any and all blocking of domains... I remember because I was dogpiled for not freaking out over SOPA/HIPA.

I may regret pointing this out on era, but I'll also probably just get ignored or told I'm wrong lol

The good old "nobody ever said that !"

No intellectually serious person would countenance voting for Sanders in the primary after this round of horrific hires.

I love that Cheebo doesn't even have a made up ban reason attached to any of his posts, he's just silently discarded.

Mod admiral, can you sort this?

User Banned (3 Days): Persistent hostility and volatility over a series of posts

Anyone else would have been permed.


They hid it 11 pages back.

[shosta]

His last ban was like two days ago and that was for a day! This new ban should at least be a week!

[benjipwns]

mmm fine work mods, there will be an extra fruit basket not sent to you

[VomKriege]

"Volatility", that's a great euphemism, I expect we'll see it used quite a bit in ban messages.

[shosta]

If you get someone else mad it's inflammatory, if you get mad it's volatile. There's a ban reason for every human condition and interaction. 

[benjipwns]

he sperged all over that thread like he was me and gets three days

a dude posts a single tweet and also gets three days: https://www.resetera.com/threads/2020-democratic-presidential-primary-ot-bernie-hires-sirota-after-he-had-writing-articles-attacking-rivals.91234/post-19011345

That thread's gotten 100 pages in two weeks, let's not pretend that any post in there is any less of a "drive-by" than that particular one

[benjipwns]

meanwhile political prisoner Kirblar still has another week before he can return to continue educating these slow readers

[who is ted danson?]

Considering Era is the same place that melts down over racists, but only gives them a 1 week time out when found slickin' up the PDP thread, Cheebo only getting 3 days makes complete sense.

[shosta]

There was no threadmark when I posted before the lock (thread title was already updated with the Sirota stuff), so after it unlocked I posted asking for it (was gonna edit my first post but that's when thread got locked), then checked and there was a threadmark (I obviously should have done the last two in the other order)

I'm starting to see more of these posts where some mod is like GRRRR I SAID READ THE THREADMARKS and someone else is like "uh, excuse me sir, but I didn't get an official notification, perhaps you could pity me this once?". imagine being that afraid of the staff

meanwhile here we all freely acknowledge that bork is a powertripping pissbaby, albeit at only half or a third of the level of Sweet Nicole

[benjipwns]

people can't read the first word in a thread title and they expect them to read threadmarks?

[shosta]

That's exactly why we need a Resetera Reading Rainbow hosted by Kirblar.

[benjipwns]

so SweetNicole has time to save GOTY voting from typos and remasters but she hasn't written a compendium of ban hierarchy?

how do i fire her

[benjipwns]

President Vladimir Putin has tightened his grip on the Russian Internet Monday, signing two censorship bills into law. One bans "fake news" while the other makes it illegal to insult public officials.

...

Under one bill, individuals can face fines and jail time if they publish material online that shows a "clear disrespect for society, the state, the official state symbols of the Russian Federation, the Constitution of the Russian Federation, and bodies exercising state power."

A second bill subjects sites publishing "unreliable socially significant information" to fines as high as 1.5 million rubles ($23,000).

"Russia has not historically had major constraints on Internet freedom," analyst Matthew Rojansky told the Post. "The Internet has thus been one realm in which full diversity of opinion and free expression, even on the most sensitive political topics, were generally permitted."

Now, however, the Russian government has "essentially unconstrained authority to determine that any speech is unacceptable. One consequence may be to make it nearly impossible for individuals or groups to call for public protest activity against any action taken by the state."

The Russian government has steadily tightened its grip over the Russian Internet, The Moscow Times notes. "Tougher Internet laws introduced over the past five years require search engines to delete some search results, messaging services to share encryption keys with security services, and social networks to store users' personal data on servers within the country."

ResetERA.com will probably lash out in jealousy again at a TRUE leader

Monetize your sales age videos (cheaper than Famitsu light subscription), buy Era shares, become the Obliterator.

I didn't see anything Cheebo did that deserved a ban

i love how this never came back and is just a super long redirect to the equally dead Twitter page

also, lol, ResetERA.com isn't as relevant as this

I remember when this first came out it was immediately co-opted by the right to quote/confirm things the left didn't want verritfied®

[Cauliflower Of Love]

time for itchysaurus to lose his over ten pages

[benjipwns]

i don't think anyone outside of the Jack Remingtons of the world took it seriously

there were some great comments on the site though, the best part is that every single comment had to be Peter approved first

[benjipwns]

i should have suggested the mods put Cheebs ban message on his posts here: https://www.resetera.com/threads/the-atlantic-bernie-sanders-just-hired-his-twitter-attack-dog.106342/

Haha. He got banned for just being angry while being correct. Sirota is a cunt.

[benjipwns]

BTW, who is Andrew Yang and why is he relevant?

Technolibertarian entrepreneur who established his name with his support for UBI of $1000 a month.

Rich technocrat who’s a minority (Chinese I think).

Greg Miller is a hack.
There I said it.
He doesn't even seem to really play games much. Just gets paid to shill.

He's a member and recently helped another member with their Vita charging cable woes.

[benjipwns]

so he doesn't play games confirmed?

[benjipwns]

from that thread, more vilifying journalism:

Hearing some interesting things about this. Even if only half of it pans out, tomorrow is going to be something you won't want to miss.

This aged well.

[zepblackstar]

Greg miller is a slimy snake. Left Colin Moriarty high and dry so he could continue to get atta boys from gaming bloggers.

I still don't really get why they call him Bernard. Is it a Westworld reference? Doesn't make much sense as that character has nothing in common with him. Is it perhaps an even lamer version of the Drumpf meme?

some people think it's funny to use people's full names, it's like when people always used to refer to her as Hilianora Rodsworth-Hamwell Clinton

[benjipwns]

so you think it's fine when people call Beto, Robert Francis? like there's nothing going on there for you?

I think is because “It doesn’t look like anything to me” plot point and Bernie not being a fan of identity politics.

[benjipwns]

Pwnz, can you tell them $200 is the limit for reporting to the FEC. Donations under $200 you don't have to report, merely record until they aggregate over $200. It's nothing OpenSecrets does.

How they argue for pages about things without anyone ever looking it up is amazing.

I guess the Bernard thing is also a way to distance from the affectionate familiarity of Bernie. Which doesn't make a lot of sense from people who spammed "queen" but heh

you're lucky I didn't doxx the FEC by linking to their rules page

I edited it in. Did you get banned on re too or just not sign up?

I mostly don't interact with the Bobby avatar kay* guy. I'm probably on his ignore list because that seems to be his response to facts.

"Bernard" is literally exactly the same thing as Republicans/right wing nerds saying Barack HUSSEIN Obama shit.

Yeah the Bernard thing is pretty and doesn't really work. Is it going for the angry parent using the full name thing? Dudes old.

[agrajag]

it's called owning the Bernard bros, shitlords.

It's low key antisemitism shit that started on 4chan and lefty Bernie haters don't even realize they're engaging in it. Except some of them probably do since they have an antisemitism problem.

[Pwnz]

Bernie bros takes too many syllables. Maybe Brahns sort for Bernie brahs?
