It helps immensely when there are not mods trying to shape the narrative and helicoptering threads like this Chipotle one. Discussions (and arguments) can reach their natural conclusions here.

I can't prove it, but I'm certain there are a certain type of posters that basically "gamify" their own discussion board experience and try to bait people into getting banned. They themselves aren't discussing anything in good faith, but they will use that phrase and others from a pretty obvious playbook of similar tactics.
You have not heard about the reee deathsquads...err I mean hitsquads...led by the fu....excelsorif and his discord warriors
 
This isn't meant to derail this thread but I found something that might finally explain why Resetera is so crazy.

Someone did the research and scientifically plotted just when exactly did the SJW menace take off.

Warning, the following images may disturb you.

As you can, the SJW virus emerged around 2010 ~ 2013, and went critical mass in 2015.

This perfectly lines up with GAF's own timeline.

Everything was normal.... until we started seeing game journalists no longer cover games, but attack developers for not being "inclusive" enough.

Now go look at Resetera.

They have not one, but TWO threads dedicated to bashing developers for their their lack of "inclusivity".

What's also funny is in some examples, they were actually going down.

"Discrimination" and "Police brutality" were on the decline, but then in 2010, all of a sudden those results skyrocketed.

The god damn Mayans were right
 
So the Rockstar exec story has not made much impact on Ree, I guess the victim is not high enough on the opression scale and they like thier Cowboy and cops and robbers games too much to call for a boycott.
 
At least they banned him
It's a "duration pending".

It's obvious they want to sweep it under the rug and then let him back on to the site later.

Edit: It even says "previous related infractions" meaning he made the same threats before yet they let him post anyway.

According to the ban tracker that user only had one previous ban. Proving the mods are liars with their "Previous infractionS" note.

Yes, that's the timetable for insanity on gaf, with everything coming to a head around 2015.

Sanity will prevail. Let's make NeoGAF great again.
 

4 hours later and he's not banned. He made a mistake posting a pic of Maisie & Sophie, it's like posting a pic of puppies and kittens.
 
I think we're reaching the tipping point for era now. Threads are more interesting on gaf now. It shifted quite recently I think, but just a few months back, I hardly bother to check the gaming side of gaf since it was the same handful of threads over and over from day to day. Now there's a lot more happening.

Era on the other hand, is turning into that old show Passions. You could stay away fro a week, come back, and find the same threads on top.

Not long now.
 
u Notice the funny thing about that suicide thread....the user saying they could of just pm a mod..........I didn't think the average reee poster could actually do something without trying to draw attention to themselves judging by the pages of gay porn people had to sift through some time ago
 

ZhugeEX was permed from GAF for being full of shit on numerous occasions. Afterwards he went on Twitter with a grudge and fabricated story after story about GAF. It's no surprise that he was given a position of power at REEEE.

You would never expect to see an obvious step change in natural progression of ideas - the sudden change indicates it being artificial.

As far as it being directed, I am unsure.
I've said before that a lot of this is being generated from "human relations" departments (HR/PR) in these companies getting filled with people with useless college degrees that make it sound like they understand people. Some idiot hiring manager hears that someone has a degree in Women's Studies and thinks that means the person understand women. HR never has bright people to begin with, but decades ago we did not have universities pumping out debt-loaded people with no knowledge beyond being triggered.

It probably is just the result of universities learning that they can widen their consumer base and improve their margins by hiring some cheap blue hair professors. Teach someone chemistry, and you need a lab. Teach someone oppression, and you just need a podium.

I didn't know that. Does he kinda make posts here in the similar fashion as people make threads there?

Today's reminder that saying you'll buy video games from THQ Nordic is an offense punished by a guaranteed perma there but advocating actual mass murder is only duration pending.

Yeah, something about how he carried himself here didn't really sit with me well.

There was also the mod who never used the 'quote' function, but would just copy and paste replies with quotation marks around it but you wouldn't know who he was responding to without backtracking, what was up with that?!

Teknopathetic, formerly Tre'Day. Old habits die hard I guess.
 
i like the porn gifs on 4chan. how far away from mass murder am I?

4chan is fine, you're only halfway to the depravity of 8chan. Go there once and you are suddenly a pedophile, and probably a nazi racist, so just be careful. I'd maybe just seek some help now just to avoid getting there.
 
The amount of fake insiders just posting bullshit, or obviously just getting spoonfed information that everyone was getting (*cough* that Final Fantasy loving mod that wanted money to visit the Titanic *cough*) but passing it off as insider info for e-cred was pretty fucking annoying for a number of years on here.

She was as reliable as Emily Rogers.

I thought Kagari was pretty cool.

Kagari was a hack. I did an interview together with her at E3 once. I asked almost every single question, all she asked was about platforms and how long will the game be.

Then she writes up the interview and takes credit for every single question.

Fuck her.

Same, I enjoyed her posts in the FF threads. Didn't find her annoying in the later years.

Also, she pretty much (correctly) hinted at a FFVII: Remake announcement in 2015, so she did have some insider knowledge. I remember everyone being hyped as hell at that time.

After the split, I've only seen her in Dragon Ball Super OTs, both here (for only a few months) and at era.

It's no coincidence that so many "insiders" popped up exactly when games companies started wanting to control exactly how they message their game, rather than it sporadically appearing in exclusive magazine reveals, podcasts and events etc.

There are people like Serkan Toto and Takashi Mochizuki who due to the nature of their business and position obviously have close links deep inside the industry. But others, if they aren't full of shit completely, are obviously just getting their inside scoop (lol) from some PR or community person giving them little nuggets of pre-approved information, or information that is already basically an open secret in the industry. That information isn't substantial at all but just enough for a bunch of needy forum nerds to jizz over each other and latch onto every word you post.

GAF was full of that shit and now they run amok in ResetERA and on Twitter too. Good riddance to those annoying twats on here but overall, the the quality of gaming news and discussion has fallen off a cliff in the last few years and is unlikely to ever recover.
