For some reasons I couldn't post a thread on the recent tariffs potentially affecting the price of consoles,
There are several topics talking about tariffs affecting the price of games/parts/consoles, so I don't know what kind of crack you're on. Maybe try posting in one of those?
 
They are allowing talk on tariffs if they are on topic of other threads and you back it up. They are trying to stop political threads as politics as the main topic.

Just don't be a dick and you can talk about it.

But talking shit about woke and DEI is perfectly fine? Doesn't make any sense

GAF should ban all the talk about anti-woke politics cause its retarded and gay

I am glad your recent activity wasn't a ploy and you were just looking for ways to account suicide.

Poor attempt though.

This is what I did. I posted a link to a news outlet. It was just a report.

All the woke and DEI talk on this forum is generally stupid. But what is worse is the number of people who can't use a simple thread search to see if something's been posted or something similar has been posted. Just look at the number of Nintendo threads since the Switch was announced.

So yeah, we've talked tariffs to death here already. Yes, it will affect the price of things. No, we have no other insights as of yet because nothing has substantially changed in the last few weeks.

honestly fair... the no politics rule seems to be extremely unevenly applied if the thread was deleted for that reason.

Complaining about the moderation in a forum is like going to someone else's house and complaining about the color of the walls or their choice of furniture.
 
Lately, some threads have devolved pretty quickly into politics talk and they've remained open. Be it either in Gaming or Off-Topic, I'd wager even in Community - though I don't go there ever to know for a fact. Personally, I'd rather there be a place these discussions can live rather than having them creep up randomly. People want to talk politics and instead of duking it out in the proper place, they've just been skirting around the edges and finding random threads to do it in.

You could always use the ignore thread function instead of trying to police the stuff people can or can't talk about.

Imo, which shouldn't be taken into account at all, the woke stuff that's in games is related to gaming more so than to politics, since it affects the way games are designed and developed. It's quite far in the "politics spectrum" than let's say talking about Trump or Ukraine or whatever, which is 100% politics and not gaming at all.

I find the interpretation that lifting the ban on politics talk (and restoring the place to do it freely) to be "policing" amusing...

That's not what you said before the edit friendo. Plus the way you said it made me think you meant "another place" rather than restoring the old politics section.

If that's the case, apologies, but my point about woke shit in games being more gaming related that politics related still stands. Of course, it's a point nobody should give a shit about. At the end of the day this is Evilore's place and while I appreciate the rules of a place making sense, this is his place and we are just his guests.
