Man. What the fuck.

I read this entire thing, which was insane, and I don't know how to reply. On one hand, I recognize your incredible earnestness, however misplaced it may seem. On the other hand, everything you said is completely off-the-charts bonkers.

If Holy changed your life and is the best person you ever met for the impact he has had I think you might be too impressionable to safely be part of a community like this. I can't imagine how your must be reacting to people's replies to this thread, considering you couldn't even write your post without apparently crying your eyes out.

This is extremely unhealthy, but I am sorry you are so upset.

I wanted to post something similar, just didnt know how to word it. I hope OP understands the internet can be a very blunt, brutal place, especially when doing something like this.

If it gets too emotional in here OP, do like I do. I just stop visiting a site or a thread I posted in...and keep it moving. NeoGAF is too great to stop visiting the site, so I just stop going in certain threads.

Maturity, bitches.
It's pretty impressive that after only a few games the OP understands waifu culture because I've been watching anime for years and I still don't get it.

I love the irony in this thread. Just love it, love it, love it.

OP posts a serious admission of how stereotypes can affect you and how once looking past them, you get a glimpse that others can be full human beings even if they have a *wildly* different taste and preference and even a fully different emotional spectrum.

And there we go, dozens of WWE gifs, people laughing about whether HolyBaikai was "just a troll" and whether op is "part of that loli-defense force".

Truly wonderful.
The irony.

HolyBankai drove me to ignore listing them, I dunno I've never felt the need to silence a poster as strongly before or since.

HolyBaikal got banned?

I enjoyed reading his/her posts. They were batshit crazy sometimes. but that's what made them charming.

OP really needs to take a long hard look at what he is doing. This is legitimately insane you have elevated a poster who you have exchanged a few PMs with to the most important person in your life.

It's sad and pathetic.

OP sounds legit in love with someone who in all likelihood doesn't even know who he fucking is.

This isn't like one of you animes OP.

This is totally wrong. We are the one who respect, honor, and recognize women the most.

Women are not commodities to be fought over. We help them to get the care, love, and attention they deserve. This is not off putting or weird.

Animated women or not, some of them are the most amazing, sweet, caring, loving, and adorable people in the world. They made our life that much more meaningful and completed. Without them we have no reason to live in this cold and selfish planet. So what's wrong that we do a little to glorify our women who saved us?

Just saying if we are all a bit more respectful or thoughtful or understanding our world would be a much better place. Waifu or not they are our guide and inspiration so we appreciate them, that's all.

I don't know what the hell is going on.

Persona 3's a great game though, I just finished replaying it yesterday. Knowing the ending ahead of time made seeing the conclusions to all of the social links kind of painful, to be honest.

I don't think I'd put HolyBaikal on the top tier of my waifu list though.

Ah, the tl;dr version was good enough for me.

I wish Holy came back cause we could use him in the K-On! community thread. Persona 3 is awesome (played it at the perfect age), waifus are awesome. I hope Persona 5 turns out to be GotY material.

I’d like to take this time to give a thank you to HolyBaikal. I needed to have a section of this thread dedicated to you and only you; I don’t want or mean to put pressure on you and I don’t want to force you to like me or anything. I’m doing this because I need to, because I can’t stop thinking about how to write this thread and how to thank you properly. HolyBaikal, you are the catalyst to all of this, it’s because of you that I felt the need to make a thread and continue with this all and the truth is you deserve much more than just a simple “Thank You”. Without ever having a conversation with one another, you touched me in ways that no one ever has. When I first stumbled upon your posts (When I was a shy Junior/lurker) I was surprised at many things, but the most important being the way you spoke/typed and the logic you used. I’ll be honest (the entire point of this thread) with you, the first time I read your posts I was confused and even slightly upset/agitated that someone could think the way you think, but fortunately for me, I no longer think this. It took a while for me to realize this, but after reading your past threads and posts I came to the conclusion that I was missing something vastly important in my own life. Well, saying I was missing it is wrong, I guess the best way to describe it would be is I never didn’t have it, but I believe I “locked” it up and “it” is kindness, cuteness and the moe of all life. A large “theme”/subject matter of your posts were about being nice, kind, cute and loving all that comes with it. I sit here drafting sentence after sentence as tears run down my face, what can I say to properly get my emotions across, how do I even say it? HolyBaikal, I want you to know that I appreciate you more than I have ever appreciated anyone in my life. So much so that I want you to know that I respect everything about you, I truly like your line/way of thinking (I’ve incorporated it into my thoughts), I love the way you speak on this forum, I love the stutters and dots (….) you use when you type, it’s unbelievably cute and I used to do something like that too; in the end though, I really…. …. …. l..-…l...-…like you and everything you are. It’s hard for me to say this because I get this feeling that NeoGAF will think I’m a mega-creep or a super loser for even confessing this, but I no longer care. You have changed me for the better and as I sit here thinking, I believe that every single person on NeoGAF, nay, the entire world would be better if they could have a little HolyBaikal in them. I feel so much better after accepting myself and realizing what I was missing. I know my thoughts are loose and incoherent and may not even make much sense, but in the end, HolyBaikal, you are the most amazing person I’ve ever come across and I want to see you continuing to make cute threads and heartfelt posts because everyone should read them. I hope you can live on for a thousand years, or more if you desire, I feel truly blessed to have “met” you. I envy you.

What the fuck is going on in here?

I have never seen someone so seemingly broken by the banning of an internet forum member. Extreme reaction seems understated. The dude / lady is not dead. They have not moved to Mars. They are just banned from the Gaf. There are many other means to communicate with them online should you wish. You don't owe anyone an apology for an opinion. I find that Waifu shit weird as fuck, but I don't judge for others, just myself. Whatever floats your boat is cool. You can survive without a HolyBaikal. I don't even know who that was and I've been here for years.

HolyBaikal always had something thoughtful and meaningful to say, her insights and criticism of the contemporary moé culture were always razor-sharp and on the point. This place just won't be the same without her

Empathy is a scarce commodity in the world and especially Internet, even on NeoGAF. It's easier to laugh at expressions of emotion, particularly when they're somewhat awkward and/or dramatic, than to empathize with them.

After reading the OP in its entirety, it's clear he's a quite sensitive person, much like HolyBaikal. I actually liked Baikal and am bummed that he got banned, especially knowing it must have hurt him deeply. I hope that they can at least get in touch with each other somehow because obviously a public thread on NeoGAF isn't be the optimal channel for communication for this even if one of them wasn't banned.

Is Baikal's ban a permanent one, anyway? From his latest post story I assumed a short temporary ban at most.

On topic: OP, do what you must to play P4, it's much better than P3 IMHO, especially regarding characterization. The gang really feels like a close-knit group of friends, rather than a bunch of people that have to grudgingly stick together for a secondary purpose. I simply can't imagine Yukari seeing Junpei of her own choice again after the game, or any of them seeing Akihiko or Mitsuru.

This is what I like about both games though. They have a different vibe and it's cool that the social dynamics are different between the two games. Yukari not wanting to hang around Stupei in the future is just the way it goes man.

I have to object this, Persona 4 is a great game but ultimately Persona 3 (Portable) was the better one.

ALso what makes you think that, they fooled around just as much as the group in P4 even more so they lived in the same dorm.

In P4 what made them stick together in the first place was the feeling of grandeur that encompassed the "investigation" not friendship

Persona 3 (Portable, specifically the Hamuko route) is much better than Persona 4. The fact P3P is essentially a VN outside of dungeons is also great.
