Support NeoGAF

[Ymir]

I only read the end:

"For the sake of the transgender community, and the site as a whole.

Please.

Please.

Don't let things go like this. Nothing good will come of it. The reactions from the thread being locked already demonstrate that.

Please don't repeat what's already failed.

Please, please listen, even though as a currently banned member, I know I have no right to ask that and especially to keep hounding you with messages like this.

But regardless, the point being, no matter how good the intentions of the staff may be here, this will not end well and will not help so I beg for some reconsideration on this matter.

Please.

Please.

Thank you for your time.

ShironRedshift"

My favorite part was in the beginning where he doxxed himself to the mods and then weirdly started name dropping old usernames from other sites he used to go to?

Thank you for your time, and have a wonderful day.

REAL NAME CENSORED

AKA ShironRedshift (and in the NarutoFan days aka Shiron and MeijinNoKori and IceMasterHitsugayaKun and Payaso Coronado along with a bunch of other names I've forgotten)

He also dropped some wise words to always live by:

As one of my favorite video game quotes go,

"Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere"

"Not even Jupiter can find a lost opportunity."

 

[graywolf323]

Yeah I'm honestly almost on my last leg over there. I like the insiders and gaming discussion from the quality posters that are there, but the mob rule has gotten really bad lately.

The fact that you can be banned for being a "Trumper" (basically 50% of the US population) is completely sad. If they want to promote an echo chamber, it'll be the end of that board eventually. You're already seeing a bit of an exodus at that place.

It's getting to the point where if you IGNORE the cries of their members to acknowledge that a company is somehow transphobic (with zero proof other than they don't like how certain characters are represented), then you are at risk of getting banned. That's insanity.

I'm seriously toying with requesting an account deletion as well, it seems like a quarter of the people I follow on there are banned at this point and probably half don't even post much anymore

That's the thing. I hate Trump with a passion. I think he's a despicable human being.
But if I were American I would have voted Republican because I think their party will do a better job for the country.

Era posters are ether unable or unwilling to look past their personal hatred (or agenda) and consider what is best for the country as a whole.

Era is just a concentrated form of the insanity that is Twitter while somehow being even more intolerant

 

[Silent Viper]

Yeah those fuckers are not gonna be happy till both Black Chamber and Vestan are perma banned. This is not about creating a "safe" place for them but about creating a dangerous place for everyone else. If BC and Vestan are banned then the group of trans bullies are gonna use that as a stick to beat anyone and everything they don't like. That forum is pretty much a case of "What the trans group bullies want the trans group bullies get"..

Think it is time I transitioned .............................. to another forum.

Black chamber n Vestan should join gaf

You get to enjoy the next four years of them realizing that voting in another old white guy changes nothing.

 

[BeforeU]

CDPR is a transphobic company. It's time we stop making excuses for them.

Indeed. Like, our lives fucking depend on smelling out this bullshit. Because unfortunately, there are people out there who want us dead or otherwise want to make us miserable, so we have to quickly learn to how to sniff out those kind of people, before they can tell their nonsense. Obviously...

www.resetera.com

do these people have no life? Seriously. Like hollyfucking shit.

 

[Deleted member 17706]

Sir. You've been here less than a week and now talking about transplants from a forum that ~80% of the userbase likely has/had membership here, lol.

Seriously! I clicked his name and saw "Joined: Tuesday"

Welcome and all that, but come on...

 

[Foamy]

You get to enjoy the next four years of them realizing that voting in another old white guy changes nothing.

I don't want that though. I honestly hope I'm very wrong and Biden and his people do an amazing job. I hope the economy thrives, crime drops and there's unity again amongst all Americans.
Because that's whats best for everyone.

 

[Deleted member 17706]

Giga transera cuck right here.

I'll never understand the people that go on about how "you gotta put in the work and keep at it!" while completing debasing themselves.

Like, what kind of work do you think you are actually putting in by fighting some culture war on a supposed video game forum about a highly anticipated game. Insanity.

 

[Moon Grape Donut]

Shiron is fucked in the head.
Apparently BC "won" the "war" and made Transera look and feel like shit or... something... maybe?

 

[xiskza]

Era has a gestapo now.

Imagine being so uneducated or have your head so far up your ass that you literally become what you say you hate.

How is banning peoples on a political vote even considered sane? And they are jumping in joy at the idea! They got their sacrifices.

Soon:

They all have TDS. And it's typical of how far leftists work really, they love to project. Look at MSM and that's where they get their talking points, they are just as bad. What they say Trump is, is exactly who they actually are. They are the tyrants, the fascists, the racists, the intolerant ones, the incompetent ones. Which is why Biden is a perfect fit for them anyway...

 

[DeadMansParty]

Can't wait for the meltdowns about how the game sells or if it reviews well.

 

[RoyalLaFlame]

So now Nintendo is being a bad guy because they're protecting their IPs?

I don't understand - Sony did the same thing for the PS5 faceplates. A company will always protect what is theirs, keep the brand valuable. If now everyone starts customizing joycons (modified joycons) and making a business out of it, why shouldn't Nintendo go after that? I agree they have some conservative views, but i don't think this is it.

Actual trans people watching TransEra in action:

For real. I'm pretty sure they don't wanna be associated with them.

I can't believe people would want to stay there after reading what the site admin said. If you suspect someone may like trump report them? What in the actual fuck?

Yeah, that fucking admin basically is stating what Reeeee is: a fucking dictatorship.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Who knew 2077 would be the posterchild of games for the trans community at Reeeee.

I guess when a game allows you to create a skinhead female with a dick, it becomes (by default) the game to represent every video gamer's sexual and gender bias on Earth.

All that crud over there over a video game, where it looks like the main objective is to run and drive to locations, and shoot your way to progress a story.

When someone summarizes the plot, it's going to be the usual start out as a level one character, rank up, find loot and kill the bad dude at the end. Game over. Same kind of plot with a different wrapper 1000s of games have done before.

But when the dev posts an image 2 years ago of a future female with a schlong under her pants holding a fictitious energy drink, it becomes the most important thing in gaming life.

 

[Ionian]

Cheebo is gone? holy shit!

That dude shamed everyone who didn't like The Last Jedi like they were a card carrying Nazi.

No went into witness protection. New username.

 

[xiskza]

Typical ERA poster...

 

[Ionian]

I woke up to have a piss at 4am and looked at this thread. So many pages to read.

BC perm'd and people still screeching. Being sleepy and with so many pages was hard to laugh.

But hahaha now though! What in the name of Christ are they doing? And B-Dubs called people idiots?

Brilliant stuff, keep it up ERA.

 

[Roland Castle]

They need to ban all discussion of Cyberpunk 2077 on resetera at this point. Its never going to be productive, the trans members will shitpost and derail the threads made about it and no fun will be had by the ones that care about just talking about it. CDPR is forever tainted there.

 

[Rentahamster]

*checks thread, sees posts from 'yesterday' and there's 20 more pages left to go*

I assume some shit went down? Anyone write a TLDR?

 

[LordCBH]

This year?! Its mental state has been fucked up since the word go lol.

Black chamber got permabanned, the ot for it is now being done by b-dubs and it will be text only and made in collaboration with era's trans community.

 

[Crash Station]

Also one thing to note, even though I'm not trans or anything like that, I'm speaking as someone who knows and respects trans people. That being said, I really hope you guys don't think ResetEra in any way, shape or form represent real trans people, be it online or otherwise. They're a completely different group on the Internet and should only be seen to gawk at. I've friends who are trans and they're just struggling like many of us are, albeit in different ways. We should recognize that struggle and uplift them too instead of making glib comments about their suicide rates or appearance. They're just like us and we should open our arms to them too.

I'll add to this. The trans people I know are NOTHING like the ones on Era. They have a sense of humor, they understand that their visibility as a group is very new to a lot of people and there's going to be missteps among those that didn't know they existed a decade ago, and most of all they don't whine about the most minor of perceived microagressions.

To reiterate, ResetEra's trans community is not a good representation of trans people, please do not hate the entire group because of some fringe always-online lunatics.

That's my experience with the one trans person I know as well. Couldn't be more of a genuine badass honestly.

 

[xiskza]

Exactly. But these idiots think they've only been acting like that "this year". Like I said before, they absolve themselves from any accountability - so of course let's blame the Corona for being a shithead all the time on Era. They love to deflect from the real problem, their awful personality. I blame the mods and admin, who are probably just as terrible as they are, for enabling this mess.

 

[xiskza]

I'd say it's the activists and the ones with visibility that give the community a bad name overall. But unfortunately, it does tamper the whole community as that is what is put out there for most of us to see. I say this as a gay person, who also knows that most of us aren't demanding and don't need gay rEpReSEnTAt1On!! all the time to feel like we are valid. But the ones that make a scene about everything are the ones that get the spotlight. They'd be surprised at the number of gay people who actually support Trump and are not hardcore leftists, but we get banned or expelled from our very own "tolerant" community for having a different opinion. That's the left for you, basically. 2020 may be a shitty year, but damn did it open my eyes to a lot of crap that I didn't truly see before.

I used to visit there just about every day to talk about games. Right around when the site opened it was alright, people didn't seem to be crazy.
Fast forward to early this year. I go into a speculation thread about the Harry Potter game (which wasn't announced at that point), talk about how excited I am, and somehow cop a week ban. That's about the point where I went "oh damn. These people really are Goddamn crazy."

first hand: those people need a metric ton of mental help. I don't know who failed them early in their lives, but hoo boy are they deranged.

It's what happens when years of identity politics indoctrination of "PUT YOUR IDENTITY FIRST" occurs, Harry Potter now = transphobia. Everything has to revolve around a certain characteristic all the time, you're not allowed to remove your own "privilege" from the conversation, so everything is viewed through that lense. Must be hard living in that mental state 24/7 of constantly needing safe spaces and trigger warnings. If you don't have any "privilege" aka you're a white straight male, then your opinion is invalidated, you just need to be an "ally", shut up, and "educate yourself". Although if you're a part of a minority group like me and you don't go to the church of woke? Damn are we the ones they hate the most... that's when their vitriol really comes out.
The ones that originally put these ideas out there are living a fabulous life doing activism on campus and companies, getting paid tonnes of money to spew their bullshit. Unfortunately for those of us who do fall for their lies and manipulation, it is hard to get out of that cult-like mind status. They need a serious intervention tbh.

 

[teezzy]

Can't wait for the meltdowns about how the game sells or if it reviews well.

The likelihood of Cyberpunk not reviewing or selling well at this point is mythical.

What's troubling are the Era members quoted ITT who say things like "See, the member who was most excited about CP2077 was problematic!! WE TOLD YOU!!! YOU DIDN'T LISTEN TO US!!"

These gremlins are dangerous due to their distorted worldview and their power in numbers.

When tCyberpunk sells gangbusters, and is rewarded the way it inevitably will be, they will be putting targets on everyone's heads by making accusations of transphobia with the intention of doxxing whoever they can.

Worst nerds ever.

I mean, great sentiment and all, so I don't want to shit on your statement, but that's obvious. The characters in play here specifically are off, trans or cis doesn't have anything to do with it, and generally, being trans doesn't make one / free one from being dubious.

 

[SaiyanRaoh]

Resetera has many, many , many problems. They are THICK with projection and that might be their biggest issue but TransERA has got to be the most deranged, damaged and toxic online community I've ever seen. After that CP2077 thread, I think I'm fuckin done. Shit, I think most of the blue checkmark having SJWs, simps and landwhales on there have me on ignore anyway. Does anyone have any ideas at all of how I can perform some sort of account suicide? I'm not above calling out some of the pedophiles on the site on the way out.

 

[EviLore]

On GAF you can talk about video games and admit to enjoying them without being problematized. You can even say you voted for Trump or Biden (even Jo Jorgensen!) without fear of getting banned.

 

[Hugare]

To make things worse, BC seems to be such a nice guy, man

Was talking to him over the discord, and he was worried about what they could be talking about him and etc., even after getting banned.

Dude imposed on himself 1 month of ban, talked extensively with the moderation over there to make everything according to their rules, and people are still talking about him over there as if he was Hitler or something

[Balducci30]

I just actually visited the site and read the thread. They honestly believe people on NeoGAF live to "own the libs" - as a very liberal person I found that funny. The narratives these people tell themselves man, it's actually kind of fascinating from a psychology standpoint.

They really believe what they're saying too I think - or at least some do. So much groupthink and mob mentality. I mean you got to be actively stupid and brainwashed to ignore the hypocrisy. Yeah Resetera there is a thread on this site solely dedicated to you. Just like there is a TV miniseries on NIXVM or Waco or Scientology or any other crazy ass community. I hope for you to continue the good fight.

And don't let all these suppressive two dimensional Trumper bigots on this site get you down. You're doing great keep it up.

Also btw I just debriefed Black Chamber - his mission to sow dissent and chaos among your ranks was sadly cut short. But we have more sleeper agents in there - we will prevail in our campaign to own all you libs through needlessly complicated scheming some day!

 

[Slurpy2k20]

Black Chamber sounds like a criminal mastermind playing 6D chess for years for some weird endgame of...tearing apart trans-era?

What a bunch of unhinged, paranoid fucks.

 

[Hecaton117]

ZeoVGM took to Black Chamber's twitter to antagonize him further and play dumb. During the exchange this gem came through.

I don't know how much of a moron you have to be to honestly think that it's okay to call people racial slurs because you sport an avatar of a black person.

The irony of someone who will tell you up and down how they're the most progressive person around being perfectly fine with using racial slurs against black people does not escape me.

Completely two faced.

I know where you are coming from but in the end, they are not worth spending energy on. Just leave that place and be done with it. I doubt anyone will read it but I think you can give a reason when you're writing a ticket for account closure. Back when I was leaving to come over here, I was simply stating that ERA has become exactly what they originally said to be against and that a forum where discussion is actively discouraged when you've got "unpopular" opinions is not only immature and anti-democratic but also not helping anyone. If you want to "solve" an issue, you first need to be able to talk about it openly and freely. You can't solve shit by prohibiting discussion about it and banning everyone who dares to mention it. This was even before ERA was starting to ban discussion about games on a goddamn gaming forum.

You know why I don't get? Why people like this shithead keep incessantly tweeting, when their tweets don't get a single comment or reaction. Like, nobody gives a fuck dude. Who are you posting this shit for? Out of the hundreds of millions of people on twitter, not a single person gives a fuck about your tweets. Just reeks of some kind of insanity. Also insane is how willing he is to put a face and name to his tag. How embarrassing.

He has been approached by several GAF Members and was asked to post his incredible OT on neogaf. He wants me to ask here if people would like that (he doesnt have an account though).

That wouldn't be fair to the user(s) who are already working on one, unless they're cool with it too.

I just want to take this moment to apologise to you.

Years ago when I was banned from here, I had just gone through a terrible breakup and my life was in absolute shambles. Around that time was when I was banned from here and it was just like the last straw, you know? I lashed out at you and this site and said some horrible things that I am embarrassed by now - and I want you to know that I am truly sorry.

That was thrown in my face today, along with a lot of other things - some from my past that were jokes/trolling and some that are not my fault whatsoever .

I just wanted to clear the air and start fresh with you, as well as this community
