I think Nepenthe said it best in that post someone shared here. She admitted that Era is intended to be a safe space for minorities, women, and trans people who feel outnumbered by cis white males on other gaming sites. It doesnt matter what your opposing viewpoint may be, or how valid it is. They want a community where their vantage point matters more regardless of merit.
Let them have that, doesnt mean we cant poke fun.

Morrigan always says these things but honestly Resetera is majority straight white males, with a few really angry lgbt, its ALWAYS been the guys speaking about these issues, specially on the women threads, maybe she is not on the right forum

Is that the definition of a safe space? I thought being safe literally meant that, ie. from the fear that people will attack and denigrate you with no consequence. Nobody did that in that thread, or any other thread. Summary:
1- He/she/zey/ makes a post rambling about W3 mysogyny
2- A couple people (tiny minority) respectfully disagree with some of the points, and include well constructed and nuanced arguments
3- The OP claims to be a victim, puts all that disagrees on ignore, and states that this is why NB woman "go through" online (wtf?)
4- These people are permanently banned, and shamed by mod for being male (or assumed to be)
5- Now that any worthwhile discussion is nuked out of orbit, all is good, and the thread can continue on with 100% of posts validating, celebrating, and agreeing with the OP.
Most fucked up place I've ever seen. "Videogame forum".

Thats entirely ok if they came clean about that, but they pretend its an all inclusive/welcoming gaming site, when its a completely racist cult site that shits on gamers.

Haven't read the thread, but judging by your summary, it'd make me think the OP's argument wasn't very strong.
If people find holes in your position and rather than double down and correct them, you jump to "Hey you're mansplaining and I'm non-binary so I'm correct!!" then your argument is shit. Isn't that referred to as a strawman or whataboutism or whatever hippety hop millennial slang they use there?

I don't think they've presented as such since the original launch of the site.

Who ironically are just cross-dressing failures of CIS white men who are lesbians. Cross dressers rebranded as trans so they can go and cosplay in the real world and scream transphobia when they don't get their own way or are just plain wrong.

What a bunch of virtue signalling, lying fucks. Right, he hasn’t bothered to play the game more than 5 yrs after release, and now wants to pretend the OP convinced him not to? Horrifically Pathetic.

Apparently you've never heard of Cream the Rabbit.
BadBurger
Many “Whelps”! Handle It!
God she's such a miserable, narrow person. I honestly legit feel sorry for her because you know her life is absolute shit, and that King of Internet Cringe forum is her only form of social interaction (there is no way she has friends).
I bet half the other mods hate her and know she's only still around as a mod and not banned is because she's friends with Cerium. Morrigan is what happens when a woman can't find love - even from a big fat neckbeard.
The whole "mansplaining" thing was huge on Twitter a few years ago, and it's why I dropped many people on that platform. It became an excuse from too many women whenever someone corrected them, and they happened to be a man. Even in completely normal conversational, non confrontational ways.
Even my fiancé detests the term.

If you ever start a thread on why Futurama and King of the Hill were both better Fox cartoons than The Simpsons was, I'd imagine the two of us would gladly fight side by side.
Until then The Adventures of Cookie and Cream remains Ribbit King tier PS2 fodder.
bender
What time is it?
There is an argument for the first 10 or so seasons of the Simpsons but Futurama had the benefit of being fucked over by Fox on time slotting and never reaching the point o stagnation. Even if you include the Futurama movies, the body of work easily eclipses the Simpsons while the Simpsons had a ton of quality episodes, nothing it produced ever reached the height of Godfellas. And that's okay because it's the greatest piece of content that television has ever produced.
I don't like King of the Hill.
Ribbit King was just too fucking weird for me and I love Golf and Japanese quirk. Adventures of Cookie and Cream is just a great co-op game. It's a shame it came out before online co-op was a standard. Now go write an email and apologize to Atsushi Taniguchi .

Amazing....engage in a conversation and end up getting permanently banned because you don’t group think.
Wow, great discussion forum
Someone said something similar to me, as a straight white male you have to realise the forum isn’t for you, you are not welcome there.

This would be all well and good if it actually represented the userbase. Era is still majority white males.
And it's not like Era was even organically created with the intention of being a safespace. It was a wholesale community transfer, including people that were around before wokeness was in vogue. It's not "Progressive Gamer Forum" or whatever other fitting title, it's a spiritual successor to a big video game forum that for most of its life was nonpartisan.
It's very much a "have their cake and eat it too" kind of situation, where the staff know their ideal site would require the purge of 95% of their userbase, but they can't do that because the issues they care about would never get any traction and they'd have the activity levels of r/gamerghazi. That's why there's consistently issues with marginalized groups feeling like their voice isn't heard, or the hardcore leftists getting upset that it's still a site based around a facet of capitalism. Basically, the place doesn't know what it wants to be, which is entirely intentional.

If Trump wins what does that say about America?
Been thinking about this a lot lately. My friends and I are genuinely concerned- especially those of us who are Jewish and other minorities, what with the rise of fascism, white-supremacy and anti-semitism. After all that's going on, >230,000 Americans dead from COVID-19, soon 10mil (known)...

I don't know what does it say about America? That they voted for him again?
But nah.

If Trump wins, I think it will be unequivocal fuck you to the far left radicals personally. A flat out rejection of all the bullshit people have seen this last year. Conversely I don't see Biden winning as an endorsement of it, but a reaction to the media campaigns, and a vote against Trump rather than a vote for the democrats.

Please don't be offended by the following statement but...
Why didn't u do more to disassemble that sensitive ass echo chamber when they were all over here?
like challenging their ridiculous ideas in the public arena and unban those who were literally banned for no reason at all other than having an opinion that didn't fall in line with that sensitive ass echo chamber.
or did you feel that it was just a lost cause and there was no point in attempting to reason with the unreasonable?
BTW, I don't know the full history so if you did attempt to fix it then I apologize in advance for being ignorant of that.

Just read the TW3 thread, the absolute delusion of these people is off the charts.
The most celebrated, awarded and critically acclaimed video game ever is misogynist and if you do anything other than confirm that, you are too. Also, if you're male, you're banned.
Here's the proof, right from the horse's mouth
If you were born a male or female and remain a male or female, you are decidedly second class on Reee. Your opinion simply doesn't hold the weight of these fucking weirdos who have a hissy fit because some video game character wears skintight clothes.
The whole forum has descended into a collective madness where it can no longer be accurately described as a video game community. It's a bunch of ultra-left nutjobs who seek to root out, and cancel, anyone who doesn't share their incredibly marginalized and bizarre outlook on life.

I thik you'll have to go through both the reset threads, there was a few loooooong ass posts explaining it. But basically a lot of shit was hidden because of old software (shadowbans) and activity masked it. Things just appeared as a surface level load of hot takes from what I can gather, but in the background nefarious shit was happening.

That is the nicest asylum i ever saw in my life, it almost look like a big conference room, and people can dress as they want without ugly straitjackets?! Madness.

In this case she was born female. She is using this weird abbrevation and I looked it up and it meant born female.

That's an old topic bumped becuse OP realised he'd get more attention on Twitter by ignoring @'s and DMs. Turns out he was fine browsing the forum earlier today.

Actually, resetera's mods are at the top of the pyramid as their most oppressed class. Trans are only untouchable as long as they don't dare to criticize those poor volunteer mods too much.
