Also, I have to point out I did this after trying to engage in a productive discussion with a mod following my first ban, but got ignored. They don't want to debate anymore.

No reply after that.

Someone wrote that whining here is like overthinking your ex. Maybe so, but I whine because I was a lurker since 2010 (never bothered to get an ISP email), than registered recently, as it's now possible with plain Gmail account. I just miss the times when GAF was the place to go for news and leaks, by now didn't even care about OT section. You just browsed GAF, watched amazing GIFs from gameplay, was up to date with everything without digging through bullcrap on numerous gaming website. Now I'm just patiently waiting for all this to come back.

You can always say, just read Era for the news. Nope, not gonna happen after I dig through all the GAF schizm, what is Era, how it operates etc. But maybe it's for the best - the cancerous tissue was removed and will soon devauer itself and GAF will heal. Amen.

Let people poke fun at this thread. It's not different than the six billion threads out there poking fun at something or someone. How many do they have on that site alone?

Some people take things too far, but I think it's fine to laugh at some of the shit there. After my ban, I noticed the rest of the internet is laughing at restera too.

How is it any different than a number of threads complaining about Trump, some "gamergater" or any numerous amount of threads crying on Era itself?
 
Post was reported for doxxing when users identity was clearly established years ago ( https://www.neogaf.com/threads/interview-with-bungies-frank-oconnor-that-annoying-stinkles-guy.134865/) - no action taken.
Ok, Frank O'Connor from 343 Industries is Stinkles on Era and, oh boy, almost 5000 post since joining, mainly political bullshit. I love Halo, but the more I dig, the taste in my mouth gets more bitter. Un-fuckin-believabla. Like this man is bashing the March of Independence in my home country (Poland), saying like all the rest or morons, that it's display of power by Nazis/Facists. Honouring the day your country reclaimed it's Independence after years of oppression is a hate crime. WTF?

Why doesn't he write an oped on his very own employers that still support ICE?

Given the history of what happened to Poland, I think you get a free pass to celebrate your independence.
 
The problem is that people from outside view this march (the largest of this type in Europe) as a neo-nazi manifestation. When only a small percentage of attenders are in fact far right extremists. But they exist (as in every country) and use the occasion to show some transparents about white Europe with celtic crosses on them. And even this is an answer to EU pro mass immigration policy, not an act against a reasonable amount of foreign cultures. Predominantly, cause you'll always find fuckheads who read Mein Kampf as a bedtime story.

Zuckerburg said congrats to the president after he won the election. ERA runs to delete their Facebook accounts: https://www.resetera.com/threads/bu...-trumps-campaign-for-internal-strategy.56507/

Just the same way they were threatening to move out of the country if Trump won. It's also funny because they were wanting to move into countries that were more homogeneous than the US. And they were mostly white countries lol.

It's not the first time we saw the allegory of Julius Caesar used before on Trump.



Also, look through the thread. Many comments legitimately see him dying/wanting him to die. Such as:

I'm praying for a stroke.

This is wrong, you can actually delete a facebook account. I did so with mine month ago.
Click to expand...

Is this a new feature? I never saw anything in the account options other than 'deactivate'.

Twitter you can easily delete, but never seen one in Facebook. I will have to look it up.

Edit: I looked it up, while there is no 'delete' option like on Twitter, you need to submit a request to them (they said it can take up to 3 months, lol, goodness). Well that is good to know for the future, thanks for the heads up!

So, permanent bans for a little bit of light wrongthink, if you're a repeat offender or junior member.

And, 1 week bans for literally wishing TERMINAL cancer upon over 60 million people. Seems reasonable.

This person should not advocate such things. Not even in jest.

TotalBiscuit (may his soul rest in peace) did a same tweet like this one in 11' and look what happened.

God knows, God sees.

Hahaha. Remember in the beginning they said they were not going to do the "junior" elitist shit? Hence why everyone had the 'Member' tag?

That sure lasted long.

Yeah it may say "Member" under everyone's names, but they sure do like to trumpet that Junior aspect in ban messages.

(Sidenote, yeah I realize that post was from April, but just saw it now because the thread recently got bumped.)

I can see how some people would see it like that to be honest. But at the same time, it's more so a place to just laugh at some of the ridiculous moderation being done on the site. And to be fair, ResetEra isn't necessarily viewed in a positive light amongst many other message boards.
Click to expand...
Don't worry. GMUN is a far left extremist from GFAQs that joined ResetEra also. He sits there and complains all day about American politics and labels all conservatives racists, despite being Canadian.

He sits in a little liberal echo chamber on Board 8 of GFAQs where him and about 5-7 others, equally far left with praise of Antifa and African-Americans attacking innocent white people during anti-cop protests as valid and understandable, just continue to put all conservatives on ignore/just go ad hominem on others who do wish to discuss conservatives.

Yes, you got that right. They call others names and berate them if they even try to discuss with conservative posters. That is like the epitome of trying to enforce an echo chamber. GMUN's presence here is just to troll.

I would offer him a spot in debating with people outside of his echo chambers to see what real life is. However, be warned, he will simply just label everyone as a racist. That is just how he thinks debate works.

They always had junior status where you cant post new threads for like 90 days or whatever. It just isn't displayed like it was here.

Yes, but I remember they specifically mentioned that they would treat everyone the same in regards to moderation, not the 'cause you are a junior' rhetoric that was abused here heavily. That started to change after a couple of months I noticed in ban messages.

If it was someone they didn't like the tweets would be unacceptable and they would all be cheering him being fired.

But most of them will stick up for him since he directs super hero movies and hates Trump.

Patrick Klepek is fine. I first saw him on the 1UP show way back in the day and he was just a general games journalist with nothing controversial about him (he was no Shawn Elliott that's for sure!). Eventually he shifted over to GiantBomb, and I thought he fit in surprisingly well with the crew. I was pretty indifferent about his departure, but he didn't strike me as a bad guy.

In fact, Patrick was the only one that I know of who reported accurately on the situation that was transpiring here.

So I think your comment about him being a "rape charge waiting to happen" is pretty darn rude dude!

I don't think he deserves that, and i'd like to think we are above commenting on physical appearance. Perhaps it was just in jest though and I can't read tone.

Either way, I feel like ultimately he's just like most of the journalists in the games industry, all of these guys just get swept up in the rhetoric and play to the crowd.

It was mostly in jest and was a meta reference to the nu male smile that was mentioned here recently: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/nu-male-smile?full=1

Nothing to do with his looks but the face he's pulling.
