I love how we have a cuck comment in the first 5 replies. I also love how I get invasive ads the second I log in. But I love most how EL’s carefully selected mods are now the bad guys.
Haha it was more that i made the decision to give Fat4all (after his selfrequested ban) a proper explanation. Not just for him only, but for all ERA users checking in to see what the new fuzz is about. After that, its up to them to decide what to do with it.Oh I wasn't talking about your post when I said it was attempting to derail, I was talking about The Mule and Fat4All in this particular thread but various other posters in previous threads and the trend that I'm seeing. So apologies if it seemed like I was aiming that at you, definitely not my intention, I've had no issues at all with your posts in this thread
I don't know, i rather keep my bases sealed (as in, gave a proper explanation) and then seeing that those users won't address it anyways, than just plain ignoring it. Else there is that accusation that we dont welcome these users back. All that does not qualify for this poster though because there is no critique to be found that demands an explanation.Redneckerz for reference this is the kind of post/poster I was talking about. I'm going to take my own advice and ignore his antics. I would advise others to do the same.
I don't love it.
The aforementioned mod used to be on the level and I had known him online since I was 14. His old bans were not abusive that I've seen. I did put care into the mod selection process. When shit hit the fan, everyone acted irrationally and I shut down since I knew I was emotionally compromised and not able to mod in an unbiased way, but I would've been the best person to handle this stuff fairly and steer my team better (other than the heroic folks who stuck around and are still here). Ultimately it's my error in judgment and personal weakness that is responsible for all of it.
Re: the ads, that's the ad industry sucking and our bad ad countermeasures inevitably being circumvented over time. My ad team will get back to me shortly and we'll get things sorted out. Bad ads here are not acceptable.
Re: cucks, I mean, you a bigot or something? It seems like a common fetish. Insecurity about your own sex life? Dunno.
Regardless, try reading the rest of the stuff in the thread, not just things you've designed yourself to be triggered with. Cheerio~
I stopped replying to that because it was going nowhere. You were just repeating yourself despite what you were saying being completely irrelevant. I know exactly what point you were trying to make. I "get" it, it's just not relevant. That seems to be completely missed on you, so I didn't see the point continuing.“Everyone I disagree with is alt-right”
You dropped your ink and swam away on this one:

Then your next post was the quoted one complaining about about a vague alt-right boogeyman infestation. An inability to back up your arguments is not justification to claim everyone else is evil.
Mmm, yes, lets perpetuate this myth of mono-culture.In their shoes I'd go home, or somewhere nearer to home with people of my own race, culture & religion.
Yeah, cause only migrants do that, right?At worst these people enter Europe & commit crimes/live on welfare
Keep those icky foreigners out of our country with their bizarre and scary "religions"!Try to imagine your peoples homeland being flooded with people of a different religion
Come on man, do I really have to keep providing examples?and culture that have no respect for women.
This is how these types of people think. These migrants are coming to steal "our" women..."Oh, China looks like they're on the up, so come on chaps, let's all head to China & take their jobs, women & build our communities there. When they object, we'll call them bigots! Great idea!"
Do these sound like the words of a stable individual?Admit it, you simply hate Europe & whish to Africanise us. That's all. You're fuelled by hatred, i.e. hate which you project onto normal folk who reject a foreign invasion of their own ancestral land in order to mask your own contempt for us.

Back up my arguments? What? That there were hypocrites in the thread? The posts are right there. Did you want me to go back through and point out each individual hypocritical remark? Well I'll just paraphrase for you, "All feminists are generalising that all men are evil." As for specific examples in that thread, I'll leave that as homework for the reader.
As for the problem with extreme alt-right views on NeoGAF, the most obvious case that I was recently involved with was the thread on Italy and Malta refusing port entry for a ship of migrants. There's some blatantly racist opinions in that thread, particularly from ruvikx.
Here are the posts where I tried responding to his deranged opinions.

You'll be wanting specific examples of racism of course, so let me oblige (not just from ruvikx):

These are just the ones I bothered to respond to. And I should add that none of these posters are banned or warned for blatantly racist remarks and their posts are liked by several other posters. That thread was a huge red flag to me. If you can't see that too, I don't know what else to tell you. I don't think there's anything more I could say or show you to make a more convincing case. I'll admit that NeoGAF had an overzealous community and moderation before the "purge" (I even found myself on the pointy end of it a couple of times for slightly deviating from their view of how things should be; not banned, just berated), but at least it kept racist bullshit like that in check. Now, at best, it goes unnoticed, at worst it's implicitly tolerated.
NeoGAF definitely had problems before, I won't deny that. But it seems to have thrown the baby out with the bath water. This alternative-GAF has just replaced one problem with a new one. People are celebrating the dismantling of an echo chamber, but I'm worried that it's just creating a new one.
Why might this be happening? Why would Evilore allow this to happen? The pessimist in me would see it from purely selfish motivations. He lost a huge portion of his community (i.e. ad revenue) and is now looking to pivot to a new demographic and drive up numbers again. The more forgiving part of me would just put it down to the chaotic flux and mercurial nature of Internet, that's out of his control. It's probably a little from column A and a little column B.

ITT people who don't get that a forum is made up of a multitude of different voices with different opinions on subjects, some of which might offend you.
There was an awesome poster who was banned for using a rune factory Arab Loli as avatar, who was it?

He was certainly a celebrity and people were more than happy to feed his ego. The hero worshiping of Bish was one of the most bizarre things I have seen around here.I disagree on Bish. He was popular. Like, a GAF celebrity. He was celebrated.
PPL don't make .gifs of someone who is loathed.
When SweetNicole and her posse shows up, discussion ends, and unless you post one way, the bans begin.
But we already have a thread on Era. Let's keep it contained there.
because of this avatar? Really? I think I need to finally get an avatar...It was a Etrian Oddysey IV avatar.
Don't worry about him, he will never return here, as should be.
Good to see you back here AJ, need to get your yearly trolling of apple users back up and runningOne thing that frustrates me about forums are controversial bans that are then forced to the PMs. It absolutely frustrated me on GAF. Any attempt at discussion or different opinions on bans resulted in a ban for derailing a thread. I get that it's important to not get worked up over every ban. It's untenable for a forum. Every ban or mod action can't and shouldn't be run as a democracy. But there are a lot of things the GAF community was very unhappy about, over and over again, and being forced to never address it pissed people off. Evilore had his post history dug up and people left using that excuse, but it's disingenuous to believe suppression of forum moderation discussion had no effect on the implosion.
Same crap is happening at Reset: https://www.resetera.com/threads/ap...anias-visit-to-a-child-internment-camp.52537/
If this forum again welcomes community discussion and opinions, and Reset is oppression era GAF, I'm moving back here. And thank goodness the forum software is finally updated. It's superb now and not old or amateur hour. I know it cost money but you have to invest in your business.
Finally, can I have my tag back?
Ahhh yeah SmokeyDave was the first person I thought of, didn't always agree but great poster and really miss him around here.I don't know what got SmokyDave banned but that guy was awesome. I'm not sure if it happened during banfest though.

Are you suggesting that it is a good thing someone was banned because they had a harmless avatar that you disliked?
Having “celebrity” mods seems to be a problem on a number of sites I visit. Given just a tiny amount of power, people get lost in the sauce.

More like an incelebtrue, I'm totally not a celeb, aka hint hint

It's a joke pun.
incel + celebrity
An "incel" is short for "involuntary celibate", otherwise known as a human that can't get laid.incel?

Why would that poster call me an inceleb then? I don't understand.
It was an opportunity for a joke, and he took it. I would have added a smiley face to inject some more levity, but that's neither here nor there. I wouldn't think about it too hard.Why would that poster call me an inceleb then? I don't understand.

Well, if that's the case, then I will leave him to his prematurely ejaculating ways.I don't think you get that he is trolling you. He knew exactly what you meant. Just roll with it and troll back, let's bring some more fun back to this thread!
It's not premature, it's just not tardy.
Given your last activity i am heavily getting the impression you aren't here to openly discuss matters (As that one time that you were invited to, you weren't interested in that) but just to make witty remarks about GAF. I am all for criticizing both GAF, ERA, VOAT, KIWI and THE BORE, as long as it contains some kind of substance. So far, i haven't really seen that from you, so i'd like to invite you to that danceIt was a Etrian Oddysey IV avatar.

Elliot Rodger. That's all you need to know.incel?
Unless it is Dynamo (and a host of camera's recording it).A true magician never does.

Very well.I mean, I was saying my friend has higher standards than myself. He won't like to being remembered from those who are here.
Cauliflower of Love I have a question about your premature ejaculation if I may...are you by any chance circumcised? It's just I've heard that can increase how long it takes you to ejaculate so I was wondering if it's true or not. People say it is less sensitive and you can't get women pregnant if you are circumcised because it protects you from all the viruses like fatherhood. Thoughts?

I'm so thick, that most vaginas put too much pressure and cause me to ejaculate suddenly.
You're welI see, that makes sense then due to the G forces caused by the rotations of the Earth. Thank you for sharing that intimate detail to enhance the discussion, it is much appreciated.
