Support NeoGAF

[8BiTw0LF]

I'm out. I can't deal with the constant, high-level Wokism that has infected this board. You guys think you're "anti-woke," but you're actually the most easily triggered, identity-obsessed snowflakes I've ever seen. You've turned NeoGAF into a literal safespace for professional victims.

You claim to hate "identity politics," yet 90% of the posts here are you guys obsessing over the identity of digital characters. You're doing "Representation Matters" in reverse. You're so fragile that if a character doesn't look exactly like your specific "identity" (angry, 40-year-old dude), you have a collective mental breakdown. That is the definition of Woke.

Every day it's the same thing: "The industry is out to get us! The developers hate us! The haircuts are a conspiracy!" You've adopted the ultimate victimhood narrative. You're literally crying over the "systemic oppression" of gamers because a character has blue hair. It's performative outrage, and it's embarrassing.

You've turned GAF into an echo chamber where you can protect each other from the "scary" real world. You can't handle a different opinion, you can't handle a realistic face model, and you certainly can't handle a protagonist who isn't a generic action figure. You've created a "Woke Safespace" for people who are scared of the 21st century.

You guys are the ones walking around with a checklist of things to be offended by.

• Same-sex couple in a cutscene? TRIGGERED. * Woman has a jawline? TRIGGERED. * Non-white person in a fantasy game? LITERAL SHAKING.

You aren't "based." You're just a bunch of sensitive Karens who want to speak to the manager of Sony because a protagonist's pants are too baggy. You're more obsessed with "diversity" than the people you complain about.

Enjoy your woke little clubhouse of victimhood.

...Before this becomes a live thread. It only ends one way.

 

[Cakeboxer]

My first (live) meltdown thread. Nice!

 

[A.Romero]

Who cares? It's just opinions.

It doesn't impact my enjoyment of games one bit and often interesting information si shared.

 

[falconhoof]

Is this wokism?

 

[KimDongHwan]

Imagine being an adult and having a meltdown

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Gotta love a good account suicide.

 

[Reaseru]

Hey, hey, goodbye.

 

[Zarak]

Holy shit the modern audience does exist. We found it boys.

*wrong thread, please ignore*

 

[dDoc]

Mkay.

*wrong thread, please ignore*

To be fair that post was kind of subtle and funny, you should have kept it in.

I thought it was on purpose.

He's out of the line since all these threads and actitudes are called out by other forum members without making a fuss or suicide accounting, but he's right that there is a little too many of them.

 

[vaibhavpisal]

Kretis level suicude.

[Puscifer]

His ban note being "literally shaking" got a good laugh outta me.


Who was it? I bet it's you Mod of War !

 

[Lucie Goosey]

You're not wrong, but aren't you also doing the same thing right now?

Maybe being human is just a judgemental hyper critical ego fueld trigger mess. Come back once you're on the other side of this and shared what you've learned.

 

[Avid Reading Horse]

Huh, usually I already have these asshats on ignore at time of banning but somehow one slipped through. Oh well RIP bozo.

 

[duck_sauce]

He is not totally wrong….

… but that is a undignified way to go.
If you don't like it just never log in again.
Don't create a scene.

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

Each time I read a suicide post on this forum I'm thinking to myself

"Where are these moderators OP is talking about?"

"Where did that happen?"

"Who said that?"

Maybe I'm using this forum the wrong way.

Oh, makes sense now

Well, off to retardedfucksEra for you

 

[Soodanim]

There is some truth in there, but if you stick of a few of the eternally negative people on ignore you can cut a lot of it out. You aren't losing anything by missing out on yet another negative post.

 

[Merline]

Isn't a permanent ban a bit too harsh? The user had been a member of the site for 13 years, going all the way back to the PS4 and Xbox One era. It's kind of sad to see it end like that.

NeoGaf is literally one of the last online platforms where you can be honest and not be punished because of it.

So with all due respect, you're just 100% wrong. Reeeeee and their likes are the actual garbage-tier platforms where honesty is devalued in favor of complacency/company dick-sucking.

[laynelane]

Some of you guys are so simple minded, it's actually sad you think something is woke - just because you're so unenlightened.

It's not exactly enlightened to make a suicide post rife with sweeping generalizations and insults, you know. I enjoyed some of your posts, but it sounds like you haven't been happy here for a long while. Good luck.

 

[Reaseru]

"Why everything from you is about woke, woke, woke?!"

Coming from the people where everything is Trump, Trump, Trump....

Yea on a serious note it's 100% true, this place you can actually just bs and talk without stupid shit being enforced outside of something totally absurdidly off topic or what not perhaps, and not even that really shuts things down it's easily as some said the closest to classic forum days

All the things the dude whined about are locked and shut down elsewhere, here you can actually talk about all angles.... It's a solid place

 

[Doczu]

Man, it hurts when an old guard member decides to do public seppuku. Seems like wisdom doesn't always come with age

Oh, makes sense now once I noticed this

Well, guess he's off to retardedfucksEra

Damn, look at that basic ass white theme boy.

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

Well, as someone who has been here between both accounts since 2009 and a lurker prior to that.

That is a shame to go out that way. BUT I suspect whatever is going on with that person, GAF has very little to do with it.

He/She seemed to be crashing out about something. I would be surprised if it was truly about NEOGAF.

 

[KiteGr]

Is this a Meltdown, or a poor quality bait?

 

[duck_sauce]

You can always ignore the more paranoid "woke everywhere" usual suspects.
Let some time go by… most of them don't last long and get themself banned in the long run.

No need for account suicide.
(Temp ban is a bit harsh though)

 

[Soodanim]

Don't worry Gonzito you're never going on ignore

 

[RaZoR No1]

I always love the "live" tag on these kind of threads

It was about this thread:

[RayHell]

Why woke ? Isn't just zoomers entitlement ?

 

[SomeNorseGuy]

Some people take this all too personal. Saying something negative about their favourite title/dev/brand seems to be like busting into their house and kicking them in the balls.

 

[Odinnii]

Guys they hid the lesbian in a secret ending, what more do you want?
Next time Sony will have to patch the lesbians into their games post release because of you guys.

Here's the funny part. We'll rightfully clown on this idiotic post, but not a single soul here would advocate for it to be removed or for him to be punished.

On Reddit, posts that say the exact opposite (wokeness sucks rant) would have his post downvoted into oblivion to the point where it might be removed, or on RetardEra, he would have been straight up banned. On Gaf, we'll blow asses out with insults, counterpoints, memes, whatever, but at least here people can say whatever the fuck they want, woke or anti-woke. You can be progressive and be on Neogaf. You CANNOT be right leaning and exist on Reddit and damn sure not on ResetEra.

 

[Boss Mog]

Ah, the classic accuse the other side of that which you are guilty of.

These snowflakes get so triggered at the slightest pushback against "the message". I do think it's funny when these types try to say we're the snowflakes and triggered ones simply for pointing out blatant propaganda in games and refusing to buy them as a result. Nobody here is having a meltdown or crash-out like you right now when we point these things out. It's mostly informative, to let people know since devs try to hide this shit as much as possible (they never put it in the trailers), or to simply to mock it (as it should be), nobody is triggered or upset about it, if it solicits any emotion at all it would be sadness and pity for what the medium has become. Some people are surprised by the Neo-Geo AES sales, but I'm not, gamers know those games are fun, and won't shove wokism down their throats. It reminds them of a simpler time when games were just about having fun. Same goes for all the Japanese, Korean and Chinese games performing so well as of late.
