Support NeoGAF

ask the loonies, not me

Oh I didn't think you thought it, I was just wondering what in the ever loving fuck the rationale could be. I mean how many games have an actual trans character played by an actual transperson? I think the grand total is 2 and only one that isn't the hot garbage that was last of us 2. It's more me just being dumbfounded that they thought the game was transphobic enough to have to put a warning on the thread. I knew things had gotten bad over there, but I never would have thought it would be THAT bad...

Oh who am I kidding, of course it is that bad.

 

[BreakOut]

Yup.

By the looks of it they got all those dead forums, but also whatever those Magic Find YT sites are. Those sites are going to be worth more than the DOTAFire kinds of sites they have.

100% guaranteed the mods will directed to change people or attitude patrolling the boards.

But no doubt they are going to try funneling as many users to sign up on Reeee to grow it and with tons of ads too. Their corporate site even says ad sales are a key pillar. They might even try to merge all those Fire sites into Resetera where there's a giant MMO/competitive tab. Who knows.

I have a great idea. Let's grab all the users or GAF and ERA, and make a forum, a new community, where all posters get profit and there is no sole owner. The community will be the owners. Mod system will be more like Reddit where we can vote down user posts so that user gets reduced profits of the site. It's a great idea id just require 49 percent ownership of the site as it's my idea and I'd be going through the trouble of setting it up.

This has been such an amazing 2 days. Made my week.

If it helps, i think it was because of some tweet or shit cdpr made once with a "did you assume my gender?" joke. LITERALLY TRANS GENOCIDE.

She's into Capoeira, so like a Brazilian weeb or something.

Funny thing is that no one here gives a fuck about capoeira. Its just one of those things we might read about or pretend to do once in elementary school.

According to who? I live here too, and, yeah, people actually care about it. Maybe not in your social circle, but they do care.

I’m trying to save my last message on the Era site for a big fuck you. Any ideas on a post to make?

Good old days of "Primário". At least someone gives a fuck about Capoira.

Find the archive link of Cerium's court records proving he's a homophobe and make a screenshot of it your post.

Post it in gaming and OT with the topic "Court Records Prove Trump Was a Homophobe"

And then say in the post, "Oh, did I say Trump? I meant Cerium" with the screenshot of the archive proving he yelled gay slurs at that teacher.

Funny how there isn’t one ban in their meltdown thread.

People there saying how mods get abuse and have a thankless job. Like WTF, they’re all on a power trip and get validated by a bunch of idiot members with the same ridiculous ideologies.

I don’t have an ounce of pity for what’s going on there. It’s hubris.

 

[jufonuk]

Cerium has “the former member” on his tag.

Interesting fact, Capoeira was originally practiced as a martial art that, when slave owners discovered was being practiced, quickly turned into "just dancing", so that slaves could conceal what they were really doing.

If that's not appropriation

 

[FingerBang]

Man you must have a hell of a memory hole. Bish became one of the absolute worst mods in the year leadup to the GAF crash. He was doing all sorts of bans without following rules, dunking on the people he just banned for wrongthink, celebrating with the ciricle jerkers etc. In my mind, he was the perfect example of somebody with a little bit of power letting it get to his head. EL even had a post that I can't find at the moment that described that Bish specifically let him down with all the stuff he found after the exodus.

I have to ask: Era is now probably worse than what GAF was before the break, but GAF was still pretty much the same. You would get banned for nothing, especially if you complained about some of the crazy woke stuff that is now the norm on REra. Who's fault was that? What was the reason that happened even though the owner hasn't changed?

BTW, capoeira is not popular in Brazil. Jiu-Jitsu is far more offen here.

Not a viable martial art for modern times.

And by GAF you mean:

Straight men, gay men, straight women, gay women, black people, white people, brown people, trans men, trans women, left wingers, right wingers, religious people, atheists, Xbox fans, Sony fans, Nintendo fans, Americans, europeans, Australians, Asians, Bo Hazem’s favourite camel, wankers, reprobates, maniacs, dipshits, genuises and morons.

This place ain‘t perfect, but fuck anyone who likes purple who chooses to paint it with a bullshit brush it doesn’t deserve.

I've never met a single person who cared about it. At most you'll find a show about it somehwhere if you look around enough. Could vary from region to region tho.

You forgot people who identify as biscuits, but I'll allow it.

Well, that’s clearly a given.

Pretty much. It looks cool and has some interesting background (though i'm not 100% sure in its veracity) but thats about it.

Okay, so I’ve been away from the thread since about page fourteen, and I’m too tired/lazy to read through every page since. Can anyone provide a summary? I’m picking up vibes things have already gone downhill at Tower Era.

 

[bushwookie]

The hookers and coke have tired him out.

I hope you're happy.

I should've known better than to choose the shredded wheat cereal this morning.

 

[KAL2006]

If I had taken an acquisition offer back in the day I definitely would’ve spread the love around to the team.

Cerium needs all $4.55 million for his mental health, though.

I need to know how you are feeling about this news.

I'm sure back in the day when GAF was at its highs when you refused to sell it was worth more than 4.5 million. Obviously you were probably making nice money yearly anyways back then, probably still earn a bit with this forum how it is now but obviously not as much back it the heights of GAF. Hearing ResetEra selling for 4.5 million do you regret not selling NeoGAF for how much it was worth back then, and would you ever sell if you got an offer like that again.

I can't speak for the boss, but in my headcannon, it's like:

What if your one and only son became a furry. You'd want the best for him regardless, but what's the best way to handle something like that? Do you try to force your views on him and risk turning him away? Do you placate him and tell him that it's normal and fine? Or do you stay hands off and hope that his ship rights its own course?

That's how I view that dark period in GAF, anyway.

 

[SoggyBiscuit]

Only cards or Google Pay it seems.

He booked a session with Maria Mint as soon as the check cleared.
