Hmmm can't wait for harsher moderation. Moderations team was clearly too lax until now.

Too funny. I cannot believe typing some words on a website for fucking video games generates this much drama. I also can't believe they are tripling down on this shit, I mean ......wow. Definitely seen an uptick on bans for those who are trying to ascend, but that's for pure visibility. Banning prolific posters who think they are prominent posters but it's all for optics. Until they ban the actual assholes and protected posters, it's transparent as fuck.
I also laughed at Jessie and some of those scenes in FFVII imagining the meltdowns as her crotch was frothing like a horses mouth at Cloud.
Fascinating. Good luck with all that.

Era members will now get banned for reporting posters who are part of minority groups. It's hilarious.
Ignorance is now a bannable offense too!

I know right. Imagine looking at this list and wanting to talk to any of them. They would ban you in a heartbeat.
So who is putting the white general manager bdubs racist comments into the black community moderation thread and asking for a response?

How can a normal person read that list and think "yes, this is OK" and not "LMAO, fuck off with that!"?
It seriously reads like parody.

Just skimmed through the whole thing and... LOL. Just... LOL.Era members will now get banned for reporting posters who are part of minority groups. It's hilarious.

Just where these people find "hate" on their thought-policing forum where no debate and no independent thinking is allowed is anyone's guess... yet they see a lot of it, apparently.
The part about missing dogwhistles is absolutely hilarious. As is the part about reverse racism.

It's a grand mystery, isn't it (well... not really... they're narcissists who feed on attention).How do you have race issues on a gaming forum where you use fake names. I don't know what race any of you are
I work for a large company that makes billions of dollars doing business around the world. I never seen meeting minutes as long as that.
The internet is the perfect match for anyone who does not wish to be judged by their immutable traits. Male or female. Skincolor and ethnic backgrounds. Education level. Wealth level. Personal beliefs. All of those melt away. You are merely the persona as communicated by a hand-picked avatar and the written text you type on your keyboard. That's it.
Yet the normies handed it all away with Facebook, Twitter, etc as well as voice chat on the gaming systems and made the internet their new dwelling place. And at the same time they are whining for being judged by all the traits they were broadcasting openly, voluntarily, without anyone asking them.

this is funny, you can cross reference users complaining about Star Wars fans here:
Editor Del Rey Books: “intensity” of Star Wars discourse makes it hard to find new writers
The writer of the TROS novelization; Rae Carson was/is currently being harassed on Twitter. I bet LF is also having a tough time finding new directors for the upcoming movies. I think the film world noticed how the fandom treated Rian Johnson after he took some creative risks. Isn’t it...

and see the same users shitting on Star Wars itself here:

Oh wow, oh wow, oh wow.
The impetus for even more banning is laid bare. And right in time for the height of election season.

WHAT THE FUCKuh.... what?
That they're attempting to listen is commendable, but I'm skeptical that the effort will bear a positive impact. That forum is home to a lot of "diet racists" (i.e. white liberals who are no less anti-black than their conservative counterparts). We'll see.

Well, on a forum that's home to not just gaming discussion but topics of an assorted nature, you're bound to walk into threads where some members insensitivity or outright hostility on matters of race will surface. Perform a search for the threads pertaining to an innocent black person gunned down by the police. Some members have been rightfully banned for siding with the police and treating the shootings as justified.

So much to unpack in those posts.
Damn, they take that shit so seriously. It's a discussion forum and they aren't even paid. Shit, they aren't even given small tokens of appreciation for their time. A "Community Relations" (capitalized, because they're important!) team? Updating policies with long-ass verbose dissertation-esque posts? Cringe.
Prepare for the return of hyper aggression from certain members. May as well give LionPride his account back.
When has anyone ever done that? What are they even talking about?
Sorry, you're part of a minority group. It's going to be routine that your concerns aren't going to be a concern for the majority. I am part of a minority group, I came to this realization at a young age and now deal with that reality like an adult. What the fuck do the mods want us to do, speak on shit like the concerns of the US black community when we don't know or care about it? When people try they get banned or warned for some dumbass reason anyway, that's why most people ignore those concerns in the first place.
These are actually a good ideas, and probably something they should have been offering as an option to certain community threads to begin with.
Approved harassment will be allowed to proceed as per usual, though. We know it, they know it, they know we know it.
"Reverse racism" is as made up as half of the ban reasons Reee mods supply.
I.E. a few of our likewise socially challenged internet friends recently signed up for the Reee so they'll all be mods soon.
Haha, I can't believe I just wasted so much time reading all of that and given my impressions, but it is funny.

It is honestly quite unnerving how much people on ERA view being a mod as come kind of interweb celebrity status, and how much the minions dote on them.
This whole thing is genuinely going to be something to watch and the body count is going to be staggering as well as the amount of people being bullied into silence.

Have some receipts? If you mean that "diet racism", like calling black people "marginalized" (aka you are too dumb to handle real life) or something like hyper focusing on race (that thread with Hillar Duff), then I agree, aside from that I am not so sure if I understand what do you mean.

The white wokiest-woke-woke members of Era are realizing in real time:
1. African Americans aren't voting for the most progressive/regressive candidate. (which they are lowkey shaming them for EVEN after the historic Black Summit 2020)
2. The Youth Vote/Twitter sector doesn't fucking vote OR isn't representative of the feelings of the plurality of Democratic leaning voters.
Question: How can you claim to be on the right side of history when you are always fucking wrong... on practically everything?
Might want to retire that saying, chief.

One of the people who replied to the thread has already been banned.
Seems reasonable.
Claiming racism isn't as prevalent in Europe. Dismissing concerns of black members over misrepresentation in media. Attributing black members' reactions over racist video game depictions to "outrage culture." Painting black victims of police brutality as the offender. Stinkles was just banned for a racist presumption steeped in a long established stereotype over "angry" black women, and he's regarded as one of the most "liberal" and "progressive" members on the forum.

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
So if I claim I'm black, I'll be protected and can get people I don't like banned? Like if I get into an argument with a fanboy, I can say that user is offending me and that user will be perma banned?
HmMmMmM...
That's a loophole that can be easily abused.

Black men are at the bottom of the totem pole right above white men at ERA. So many black guys got banned in the Kobe threads just asking that we just don’t throw people in jail and look objectively at all the facts.

I was cultivating my new troll account and saw they banned a black dude for racism by suggesting that the black voters he knows aren't well informed. So it depends. They're definitely given more leeway in how aggressive and trollish they can be. For example, BCC posters are infamous for their frequent drive by shit posting in serious threads, yet they are almost never actioned for it. It's really fucking rare. Try that as a white/asian/hispanic/whatever and see how far that gets ya.

Now everyone on Resetera is going to claim they're black or a minority in some way or another to take advantage of these new rules. It seems everytime I think Resetera can't get any crazier, they prove me wrong.
And this from a forum that is constantly railing against "privilege".

This has been a good 48 hours of secret meetings, which means hes been banned for two days.
I give it one more day, Stinkles will act like nothing happened, and mods won't bring it up. He'll be back by Thursday. If other users say what happened, a mod will say his punishment was enough and not worth talking about anymore.
