NeoGAF & ResetERA - The Hilarious N̶e̶v̶e̶r̶e̶n̶d̶i̶n̶g̶ Splintering "Gaming" Forum Circus

I think this perfectly summarizes why everyone hates NG.

The sheer amount of doublethink used to write that message is enough to bring back Orwell from the dead
Good display of hypocrisy if one needed an example. If they wanted to show people they weren't some hivemind, they wouldn't let it degenerate into some circle-jerk that purges any contrary opinions.
 
So pretty safe bet now to say that there's no way anyone can salvage the current events?
Tyler is so fucking far past persona non-grata. He's out of the industry, full stop. No one gives a fuck about a domain name, shitty forum software, a toxic community that has already been fractured, nevermind brand damage. I hope the guy has some savings because as far as I know he has zero experience or talent beyond bossing around unpaid mods to clean up after his poor decisions.

There could have been a high risk gamble where he immediate addressed it, provided a sticky venting thread, maybe he could have survived. But this is, as they say, "not a good look".
 
Love how they're subtly mocking NeoGAF by posting praise of The Last Night and A Hat in Time.

Hell, the forum's less than an hour old and it's already ten times better than NeoGAF ever was.
 
I know the avatar is cropped. I also know I have no intention on finding out what is cropped out.
Good news its not cropped and its just a piece to be his avatar

Nakedly hitting on somebody and then backing off when they tell you 'no' but being passive-aggressively shitty at them afterwards isn't remotely close to "sexual assault"
No its called being a piece of shit.
 
I never personally liked NeoGAF, I always thought it was a little too echo-chamberey for me, but I do know people who love it. And for those who did, most of them were able to move on to other places.

NeoGAF has nobody left. Anybody who was well known there is long since over it. I mourn a bit for those who only had it and nothing else, but for the rest, I'm gonna piss on its dumpster fire as it burns to the ground.
 
It will be interesting to see if anymore allegations come out. If Evilore is as big a creep as they say it's hard to believe he only harassed two women over a ten year period.
As long as Evilore doesn't open his stupid mouth again I doubt anything else will come out. Most of his scandals have been him shooting himself in the foot.
 
I wonder how many neogaf users were ignorant of how hated they were outside their little hugbox and are now being bombed with this type of information!

I would say I feel bad for them having to endure this rude awakening, but then again, they are neogaf users
For some Gaffies e.g. brian577, it's not even a matter of being hated by the world, but of whether or not they get doxed and raided by the rest of the internet.

That's how much pressure was put on this valve, and only explosive decompression could have resulted from its breakage.
 
It kinda sucks that I haven't heard of these guys (they didn't register as anything worth raising any sort of stink about to me, honestly.), until now, thanks to Mister Metokur live streaming about it...

Beyond that, I'm staying curious - mostly because Evilore (seriously, what a stupid fucking username...) sounds like a real attention whore, more than anything. And that's before the site he runs started dying for it.

They're next. I'd put money on it. Them scattering as hard as they did, with the history of other mods on that site like Amir0x, means they've gotta be guilty of the same shit if not worse.
Somebody should dox them.

The best part of all of this, is anyone who seriously wants to know what happened will be forced to walk through /r/KotakuInAction, /v/NeoFAG and Kiwi Farms. All the most toxic evil neo-nazi places in the world. Hi Patrick!
We are not toxic, your antivirus/adblocker is lying! Wait...
 
I find it amazing that there is nobody, not a single community or person in the industry, is actually crying over the death of NeoGaf. That place was so hated, so toxic, everyone is celebrating its demise. Everyone is mocking the users who are crying about it. Another thing I find amazing is that how someplace that was so hated wielded any influence at all.

Also perfect that Evilore turned down a 10 million dollar offer to buy the forum and now its all burned to the fucking ground. Hilarious.
