Every Discord server is like this. There's always a childless middle aged woman that wants to play house with the server and treat the users like her children. Doesn't matter if it's a small e-celeb server or a server for a massive game (like say, Helldivers) there are always childless middle aged women running things. And don't even get me started on the trannies.

Grummz kinda stepped on his own shite with that "report me all the community managers", as some people found out the Helldivers 2 CM is your typical internet leftist weirdo

I know people who got nuked from the server because trannies didn't like what was in their bios. This was back when it came out that there was some tranny Helldivers server that was started for the sole purpose of coordinating report brigades in the main server so there was a tranny on the server staff coordinating with them trying to purge the server.

Helldivers fans got so sick of this they started their own community server that had like 60k members before it got nuked, probably the same trannies hanging around reporting everything so everyone has to go back to their shitty server.

These are barely updated versions of chips from 2016.

I can largely play most games at 1080p medium / low settings and still have a comfortable experience.

What year did you put this together? It's supposed to be PC Master Race, not PC Clown College.

You used to be able to put together a good midrange PC with all new parts for around $500 USD. That shooting up to $1000 is exactly what I'm talking about.

Even worse if you consider the midrange cards are now $700 MSRP and the low end cards have been rebadged to look midrange.

I don't play modern games with mine, for a few reasons: they're shit,

This is accurate.

You seriously can't expect a game that is rubberstamped by the CCP to actually be good, let alone thrive, right? They have been cracking down on the gaming industry (only backing off because the government realizes that it's kind of vital for the economy)

Depends on your definition of good I guess. I've seen a lot of people both online and in real life who love Genshin Impact and the other games Hoyoverse worked on. I personally don't like those games but it has nothing to do with CCPs involvement.

Most of the crackdowns on the industry from the government relate to predatory practices in online games targeting addicts and children and limiting children's playtime in online games. Fortnite has to censor all depictions of skulls in the chinese version but they are a superstitious people.

Sure there's censorship, of course devs have to tip toe around sensitive topics but I don't think that alone would stop passionate people from making games they want to make. They'll have their edges sanded off by the CCP and we might even see pure propaganda storylines but nothing worse than what the western devs and film makers are already subjecting us to. You think Rockstar's ever gonna release something that might purposely upset the CCP? No business wants to mess with the CCP. Hell you can't even mention the tiananmen square massacre in online game chats without it getting insta deleted.

Art has always been a way for people to express things they otherwise wouldn't be able to. I'm still fucking pissed I didn't buy Devotion before China nuked it off of Steam and scared GOG from re-releasing it but the Taiwanese game Detention is one of my favorite horror games of all time. Maybe that's why I'm hopeful.

 

[Vyse Inglebard]

At some point sooner or later all the popular western Triple A franchise are gonna shoehorn tran characters or overblown politics to cater to LGBT crowds without any hint of subtlety as a result when the game tries to tell a good story, it will suffer. It's already happening to a few series like Assassin's Creed or new Vampire Bloodline creating a massive plothole. I'm thinking Rockstar Game will eventually follow through.

Why?! Why can't I have anything fun! Why is the price of knowing anything sheer misery!

Because Hell is no longer a place only accessible after death.

 

[Coolio55]

grummz isn't going to achieve any meaningful success here regardless of what he says or does (and he doesn't care, he's in it for the grift)

You just reminded me of why I stopped following him back in the day.
It was back in that era when all the grifters would post the epic anime tranny porn they masturbated to as a joke. What a knee slapper.
Commonfilth was a schizo but he was dead right about a lot of things.

What a blast from the past. I've completely forgotten about the Mighty Number 9 and their forum community manager fiasco.

So a "Gamer Girl" called Dina Abou Karam became the community manager (a jannie) for the failed game Mighty Number 9. Turns out later that Dina got the community manager job in the first place because she was the "BF" (gamers say he's her boyfriend, Dina says Best Friend) of Ben Judd, who is apparently friends with Keiji Inafune, head of Mighty No. 9.

Mighty Beckers! It’s a true pleasure to “meet” you -- thank you for embracing me as your new Community Overlord! Now, kneel before me, lesser Mighty Nos.! MUAHAHAHA!

...Just kidding. My name's Dina Abou Karam, and actually, it’s the other way around: I’m here to serve you! Think of me as a giant ear, ready to listen to all your suggestions, requests and anything else you feel like sharing!

...Except I'll also be managing and participating in the forums, so I guess think of me as a giant ear with a mouth… Also eyes for looking at fan art and... Er, you know what? Let's start over:

Hi, my name’s Dina! Like most of you, I've grown up on video games and have an undying passion for this magical medium. I am a Zelda fanatic, a Tim Schafer lover (figuratively speaking), and an unrepentant Final Fantasy 8 hardliner. (No, that’s not a troll!) Also, to clear up any forum confusion: Mega Man X is best Mega Man!

After hopping around the globe a little, I finally left the motherland behind (Lebanon, if you were wondering) and settled in Japan, where I now work at Comcept. I'm an artist by trade, which is all the more reason I’m so excited to be a part of this exceptionally creative community! So expect to start seeing a lot of me on the forums, official Facebook page, Twitter account, these updates, etc. -- basically, anywhere and everywhere Mighty No. 9! (｀_´)ゞ

So yes, think of Dina as one of you -- because she was / is! (Mighty No. 1046, to be exact!)

http://www.mightyno9.com/en/news20131210

Note how she "jokingly" describes herself as a community "overlord" and then demanding that the "lesser" forum users "kneel" before her. This is not a joke. This is just typical gloating over having Internet power to compensate over how she has no power over her own real life. She's a self described "globe hopper", leaving her home of Lebanon before ending up in Japan (of course) on a temporary visa. Apart from being an actual biological female, how is she different from any typical modern day power hungry tranny?

Not satisfied with that position by itself, she forces herself into the development team, demanding female representation (she has a history of pro-feminism tweets), and self-inserting herself via fan art. She had the ear of the game developer himself, Inafune: "I tell him I thought Zero was a girl because of the long hair and green boob orbs, I tell him how excited I was to see a girl badass. He laughs. He tells me I’ll be a great community manager, the fans love pretty girls."

The entire way, she has faced criticism from Mighty No. 9 backers, the MN9 forum, and gamers in general. Most of her time as community manager seemed to be spamming feminist fanart and deleting dissent. She also ran defense for Zoe Quinn and banned Pro-GamerGaters from the forum. Eventually, there was so much conflict between her and the forum she runs that donators started demanding and getting refunds. In 2015, she quit as community manager as well as quitting from the gaming industry. Apparently on Twitter, she was even telling people to not buy MN9.

I get the impression that she really wanted to make her mark on MN9 as an artist/designer, forgetting the fact that this is KEIJI INAFUNE'S (AKA the Mega Man guy) passion project, NOT HERS. Speaking of Mega Man, Dina has never played Mega Man games before despite claiming MMX as her favorite one. Her ultimate goal was to break into a North American game company but gives up citing the following reasons: her gender (AFAM eg assigned female at birth), her nationality, being born poor, and being brown. She resents what she perceives to be "mediocre men" who's "only true skill is speaks English and Japanese" who climb the corporate ladder which includes her former friend, an American English teacher with a bachelor in Asian Studies. In the end, the only game industry experience she gained was jannie work like deleting posts from male gamers. Also she changed her name to Alex, became non-binary and has made sexual harassment claims against some group.

She's worked in the German, Japanese and Middle Eastern games industry and is currently developing a VR game about being Arab in the aftermath of a bomb going off in your city. Ask her for a selfie together!

Note the Sweet Baby Inc-esque "narrative designer." Her events include things like "Your Story Doesn't Need Cis Straight White Dudes" and "Please Stop Making Me Kill Myself: On Arab Representation in Games"

This is what happens when you stop gatekeeping. If somebody has no useful role, they shouldn't be allowed in a gaming company. If a gaming company DOES accept worthless retards like these, then it is compromised and it will fall apart sooner or later, at that point you might as well quit, make your own company(or join a better one) and hope that the gatekeeping is better this time around.
If anything, the fact we gotten to a point where a company like SBI even exists shows that nothing short of absolutely zero tolerance policy will ever work.

I agree to a degree. Sure, to witch-hunt newbies is how you kill a game, but then again if you keep kneeling at every fucking newbie's retarded complain that does nothing to integrate itself on the community, you will end up alienating both your core audience and the newbies too.
It's especially boring in RTS games, especially now that every fucking RTS is an ADHD click-per-second bullshit.

Spoiler: my own experience

Well, time to sperg:
I have been playing a Spring/Recoil game engine game called Beyond all Reason (BAR for short), and most of the newbies are incredibly stupid.
Without going too much into details, the game is turning for the worst. The moderation team is reddit-tier worthless, they will just ban on sight anyone for whatever reason; the average users would cry if the map is too small, won't get any challenges, would just cry for literally anything.
Of course, the game doesn't support third party servers as of now, unlike Forged Alliance Forever (the one game that won't die because there are no other RTS like Supreme commander, even total annihilation is a completely different experience), you have very little say on rules and the Code of Conduct is some of the worst shit I've seen, basically the usual forced "wholesomeness" that leads to hugbox shit.
You can only kickban people when a game starts or the whole lobby has to stop, and if a mod is in your game, you'd better just not use chat since they're the most touchy, thin skinned mods of many games. What's fun is that most people will moan that "FAF's toxic" while all the toxicity is just older users telling them to stop fucking around when the enemies are deploying nukes.
It's a fun game, 10/10 would nuke my own team again so they would shut the fuck up. You can at least still bully those fuckers in various ways, just pray there are no jannies in your game.

tl;dr: Newbs in RTS games are unsufferable faggots, especially if they originate from the US, Canada or any LATAM country. Middle to Old users at least would either leave or play regardless. Newbie US players are decent at playing but take chat too seriously and won't shut the fuck up about politics/muh toxicity; Canadians are fags; Latinos are a wildcard. If their level is more than 5, they're decent. otherwise it's KOS.

play Forged Alliance Forever, it's a good game and the best RTS ever made and none of these Spring games hold a candle to it

it also helps if the men that are doing the gatekeeping doesn't get thirsty over any woman that comes into their club thinking they are "based" or whatever.

TBH I'd take women over troons. But I agree, a community dies the moment they start doing this "wholesome" hugbox bullshit.
No, I don't care if you have periods, if you cut your dick off or if you suck dicks on a daily basis, you're still an unskilled faggot that can't cooperate for shit and I'm still going to call you a nigger in chat for it.

(Just because you say you're a women doesn't mean anything. You sucked and costed us a victory, and that's it. Everyone has to be threated the same as everyone else, end of the story.)

Also Female and Faggot can't be put on positions like Community Manager, they will inevitably fuck it up by making it an hugbox.

I always felt that in the end the main legacy of Mighty Number 9 was that it worked as market research for Capcom, who later released MegaMan 11. Koji Igarashi had much more success with his off brand Castlevania, Bloodstained.

They can rebrand all they want, people can still smell their shit from a mile away. This little retard episode from Sweet Baby Inc made sure that people will be noticing for quite some time.
