Another Reset thread discussing Trump dying.
https://www.resetera.com/threads/ho...uneral-go-down-where-will-he-be-buried.65878/

What's funny is that Trump will never truly die. By that, I mean he lives rent free in all their heads.

It really amazes me how one man can turn an entire forum insane. Every gasp of air he breathes, every single footstep he takes, ERA literally starts screeching from the top of the lungs how it's all evil.
It's this type of obsession that makes me worried the left might be breeding their own John Hinckley Jr. Especially when you consider the forum does have a lot of users with self admitted mental issues/depression.

It's because he's the personification of the devil to their social justice religion. They're behaving like evangelical Christians would if Satan came up from the underworld and started running the country.
 
Oh, wow, surprised to see no mention of the latest shit stirring, when ResetEra suddenly have decided to change their layout. Supposedly dropping the Hangout for an Entertainment subforum.

On the surface it would seem like not a big deal and a sensible way of experimenting, to better the user experience and allowing threads to become more visible and to deal with the community/hangout problem of insulation or little participation of the broader audience. But of course, you have a vocal minority on RE that will see things in the manner of being in an ideological war, taking part in an ideological Crusade.

There's so much gold in this thread and I'm surprised Redneckerz Redneckerz hasn't written about it.































God, there's just sooo much. Some of the members are really focused on one thing in regards to narratives. It's like they're on an ideological crusade and everything will be about taking part in Two Minutes Hate against Goldstein. It's so ridiculous that something as simple as site layout becomes part of the ideological war and that someone just wanting more diversity and visibility in topics, somehow becomes "problematic".

What a fascinating train wreck.

Mods over there getting questioned a lot lately 🤭
 
No, Yoshi is the Yoshi that also posts here and he has been permanently banned already.
If it makes you feel better I never tried to get an account there, even when it was open season because I knew I would be banned almost immediately. I like to argue for the sake of arguing whether I believe in the topic or not and they won't have that kind of discourse over there.

I might have made it a few days, but more likely a few hours. You won the game of survivor over there as far as I'm concerned. You posted lots and avoided the minefield, until that one subject....
 
Another thread on mass migration to Europe and you can expect how well it goes.
https://www.resetera.com/threads/im...st-party-admits-mistakes.65994/#post-12168736

Once again, the left has this crazy idea of making every European-centric country into open borders, which I find batshit insane. When people start pushing back, it's now called "fascism, nazis, white supremacy".

Edit: At least there's ONE voice of reason in the thread. But of course, how long will he/she last is the question.

There is so much nonsense in this thread from people who have no clue what's going on here.

There have been a big increase in gang activity the last 10 years. That's mainly the issue. People are fed up with the main parties not doing anything about it. Shootings, cars being set on fire, drug dealers openly selling drugs in parks, etc.

A large influx of immigrants and refugees isn't helping when we are terrible at integrating them. Many end up being recruited to the gangs.

Yes, there is obviously some racism and xenophobia related to this. But stop claiming that we are all massive racists all of a sudden.

I don't think the board should try to fundamentally alter its social and ideological makeup and this kind of change could really do that.

Era posters are shook about the upcoming changes. Some people are expressing how they don't want to read about politics and users are losing their minds over it.

"Oh no! Now people can't see our freak outs over every little thing. My job to challenge everyone's world view is finished!"

I can only find one other category where Reset Era is mentioned, and that has to do with every attempt to normalize and thaw relationships with Russia. Considering Jim Comey said not to go far left as it will alienate voters, and seeing how crazy they get over there and don't listen, is it possible that Reset is a tool of Russia, in plain sight, that will be amplified even further in the next two months? Just one last thought that's been bugging me.

They sure love the speak of the ideologies of a comrade.
 
No wonder he hangs out over there with his buddy Zhuge. Really? These are the real problems in gaming today?



Real problems in gaming today: children who don't have the opportunity to play games (can't afford due to high prices, not accessible), high and unrealistic expectations from the developers that they have to sacrifice spending time with their family, monopolization of the videogame industry, videogame addiction (to the point you neglect everything else)

Not real problems in gaming today: Creating mountains out of molehills
 
Seems like the new categories are not going down too well. Even at a glance, not being a user there I don't like having the OT cluttering the page.
 
A one time return as i came across this and i know for a fine fact that this is just purely hypocritical, but you only would know if you interacted in private with this user. (And as such i am not going to link to posts this time around because privacy reasons (I am being thorough here), but i can say its a member of The Names.)

Said user says this:
I know when I was younger i'd get a little hot headed in some discussions too and had to learn to distance myself. These days it's not a problem, but I did learn a long time ago to recognize the signs of becoming agitated or frustrated and to step away before it became an issue of where I would be emotionally bothered by it.
Also said user during Bethesda's E3 on Discord:
i mean, humour is subjective, but the Skyrim Very Special Edition sketch felt very forced, and like they are too in on the joke, it took away from the ability to have a laugh at it and Bethesda, not added to it. It came across very calculated, like a way to shut people up about having a giggle about Skyrim ports. If Todd Howard had just made the joke and left it at that, it would've been much better than doing a pretty average sketch, and Todd Howard is as awkward as anyone with his "I read it on the Internet, it must be true." bs.(gewijzigd)
Dude is slimey to the extreme, and has a history of lies and exaggerations, to me thats much worse than an awkward or "cringey" conference that is aimed at industry insiders.
and i don't need to compare it to the Ubisoft conference to judge it, on its own merits, it was a poor showing.
(User didn't watch the Ubisoft conf, for context.)

You are reading that right, where most people took the Skyrim joke (The Alexa version of Skyrim) for what it was (A joke making fun of the fact that Skyrim gets released on anything) this user assumes bad intent because Todd Howard.

When asked to provide evidence for these claims (To be clear: I am well aware of Todd's history. My point is that this user makes constant claims and does not back them up):
I don't need to provide evidence that Todd Howard is a liar, this is a well known and documented fact.
You're welcome to watch YouTube grading shows of the conferences, or read articles, or get a general vibe of from forums or discords. I don't need to provide evidence for this conversation, thats not how a conversation like this works
When i geniunely asked what Stan meant since i was made out for that (Like, i dont know all newspeak terminology these days) and said user still could not provide any evidence:
"stan
stan/
informal
noun
noun: stan; plural noun: stans
1.
an overzealous or obsessive fan of a particular celebrity.
"he has millions of stans who are obsessed with him and call him a rap god"
verb
verb: stan; 3rd person present: stans; past tense: stanned; past participle: stanned; gerund or present participle: stanning
1.
be an overzealous or obsessive fan of a particular celebrity.
"y'all know I stan for Katy Perry, so I was excited to see the artwork for her upcoming album""
Now you've learned two things today, Todd Howard is not to be trusted, and the fairly common colloquialism of stan, or stanning(gewijzigd)
The condescend and emotional aggression in this user's tone by the bolded is nearly dripping off the computer screen.

And yet outside Discord this user dares to say that dealing with his emotions ''its not a problem''? Surejan.gif. If you ever wanted definitive proof that members of The Names just lie to themselves to keep their emotions and feelings safe then this is striking evidence.

EDIT: Bonus:
oh, i'm done with the argument, you've insulted me several times and i'm past being "casually aggressive" and thought i'd take an even more direct approach.
Todd Howard does not do it like everyone else. I'm saying that many games directors sell their games or take on multiple roles, they do not however do it in such a disingenuous way(gewijzigd)
Redneckerz
I am called a stan (repeately) and something else and i am insultive when i am just explaining how you come across?
Oh i'm not saying what i said wasn't sharply toned, or even unoffensive.(gewijzigd)
but you were coming across fairly hilariously overly defensive of a known industry shill, and that stan insult was apt.
and if i was making some wild claim that wasn't common knowledge or well known, i would providence evidence, but this has been well known for years and years, i have no need to.
And you can make the argument that sure, maybe hes not always lying, but he is exaggerating and being purposely disingenuous in a unique way that other people in his position do not take, hence the reputation, hence being cautious of him during any press event.
Reminder:
I know when I was younger i'd get a little hot headed in some discussions too and had to learn to distance myself. These days it's not a problem, but I did learn a long time ago to recognize the signs of becoming agitated or frustrated and to step away before it became an issue of where I would be emotionally bothered by it.

Yeah thats deserved. You can't just make fun of transgender people like that and expect nobody to report you.
I'm not surprised you feel that way. You seem to agree with every moderation action they take. You are a complete sycophant. I'm sure they appreciate your tireless efforts behind enemy lines.

I have already voiced my disagreement many times before on choices they make when it comes to their moderation. Nice try though. The "gotcha" did sound great on paper not gonna lie. Pity it was off the mark.

Deserved? No. Expected? At that place, yes

You are certainly entitled to your opinion of course.

I posted for the first time in months on 'that place'. Took less than 20 minutes for me to get banned, apparantly with a "history of downplaying concerns over inclusivity and equality efforts; inflammatory false equivalencies, antagonizing other members".

I'm not sure I ever posted anything sketchy there. Ah well, it's not like it's a loss for me.

Haha, was it the Riot thread? "pie_tears_joy:

Can I get a link to the comment? I find it hard to believe they would ban you for those reasons without proper cause.

Resetera went back down. You think the masses were upset with the change? Boy they didn't keep it long. Spergs must of sperged out pretty hard.

Good to see they have competent management team over there who listen to mob mentality.

Forgive me, but it seems that REE is down, for now.

What was this person's tweet if you remember?
And was it something worst than what Ms. Sarah Jeong posted in her twitter, and you, of course defended in the GAF thread?

Both her tweets and the fact that NYT show fit to hire a person like her.

Its still up here, just very slowly.

I got a message:
ResetEra

ResetEra is currently undergoing maintenance. We'll be back as soon as possible. Please check our Twitter (@ResetEraForum) for updates. Thank you for your patience.
They were mentioning to do a reversal (Which makes sense to do now because else too many posts will be cross-scattered around) so it may very well be that they are doing that at the moment, seeing the amount of outrage.

Since that's the case then man, (Edit: Yolo) all that offsite planning in the Discord really is completely ineffective and they probably would need some better PR and coordination. Which, seeing The Names members list, is 100% pure irony.

PS:
Or i could just embed the tweet:


EDIT: You know what, this more observational role is one i could still push in this thread. Not that people care though. :)

I couldn't even get some sleep before they decide to revert back. Shame! Was hoping to read the backlash.
 
Why is it so hard to believe, if, as you say yourself, you regularly disagree with their moderation?
Once again you are putting words in my mouth. I never said that I "regularly" disagree with their moderation. I said that have stated on more than one occasion that have disagreed with their moderation. That's not the same thing.

The word "regularly" implies that I disagree more often than I agree and that's definitely not the case. I believe that for the most part they get it right more often than they get it wrong. I'm just not so biased as to say they never get it wrong. They do get it wrong and when they do it's occasionally in over the top and embarrassing ways.

I am sure we don't have to bring up the Skyrim example (Incidentially, this user had that same name) getting unverafied for saying things. Or other devvers getting banned just for being a dev.

Its always good to cast doubt but at this stage i find it hard to believe you would still be surprised by certain ''reeeesoning''.

I couldn't even get some sleep before they decide to revert back. Shame! Was hoping to read the backlash.
Playing Devil's Advocate:

What if their whole Entertainment sub idea was just a plot to do a mass culling in the inevitable feedback threads that would arise where people would (obviously) get upset for the lack of transparency on display and they were going to revert it back either way, but now they know which names they have to mark for a ban (duration pending) for ''Unwarranted hostility at the staff, criticizing staff policies, vilifying entertainment, and history of history of similar''? :goog_unsure::goog_unsure::goog_unsure:

It would be the biggest honeypot scheme related to gaming in recent memory. The (scary) thing is that this isn't even that big of a crazy idea.
