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

I think he's cowering under pressure. It comes off as if that was his plan but all the yelling about it and constant off-topic threads being made made him make it happen sooner.
He's becoming like another lowtax. He'll occasionally make proclamations of his intent and of what the rules will be, but who is really in charge will be evident.
 
When they're your only audience at this point, your options are to stop and think, or to double down on them.
The problem here is that he lost them from the moment that FB post was made.

They won't be in a place where they can't virtue signal with impunity, without any flaw in their argumentative armor.

And at this point, Tyler IS the weakness, he is fucking Kryptonite, because any SJW gaffot cannot answer to why they are freely posting on a forum run by a man they proclaim is totally a rapist.

This is why everyone there is looking for a way out and quickly.

And we get to laugh. A lot.
 
it's too hard to get in, and it's not worth getting in.
They really don't get this.

If all you want is to talk about video games, a person can join here and just never leave the vidya subforum. No one here makes you pass a fucking civil service test just to give your opinion about yooka laylee. No one has reason to pay $100 at one specific store for a newspaper when every other store charges you 50 cents.
 
eyy lmao that's me
Honestly that website has gotten way too toxic. Been lurking here for a few months and I gotta say having a nice forum of all the salt of this shitshow is a pleasure to read through.

Yeah, that thread was good to take some stuff out of your chest. After posting in that shithole for so long it starts to get you, it's like a tiny hammer in your balls. It was good to see that the post-shower GAF is still Autism Central, you'd have thought that most of the retarded folks would have fled to Reeeeeesetera but no such luck. Autism never leaves.
 
I fucking do.

Cerium wasn't a moderator, but he/she/don't give a fuck was one of Besada's butt-buddies and the centerpiece of damned near every offensive taken by the gaffots over the last three years. Cerium was literally the person who started the campaign of terror against Jontron circa YL, and was similarly part of the bullshit launched against Tim Soret. Go further back, and you will find this dipshit ever in the vanguard, always screaming about white supremacists, GG, and fucking Trump. He's gone on record for saying anyone who supports Trump deserves to lose their jobs, to say nothing of the psychopathy he exhibits when confronted with GG.

Cerium is to NeoGAF's moderators what Vade's orbiters were to Vade: There to attack people and get away with it. The fact that they put this fucking brain trust in charge means you're never going to see anything meaningful done about harassment on that forum as long as it's against the right people.

Sounds like an annoying, bullying faggot. Did he ever get doxed?

I disagree here.. There is a value to having board's that are specialized for enthusiasts. The Vidya forum here won't necessarily have the same value as early GAF. Just like if GAF opened a lolcow subforum.

Specialist services always > general services, but only at their speciality.

NeoGAF's problem is that it lost sight of what it's true specialty is, no thanks to its crazy SJW mods. Now it only can serve those who want to virtue signal with games as a focus. And that niche is leaving in droves as we speak.
 
My bullshit senses are tingling. Retrogaf is definitely a honeypot site ran by a forum member.

Well, at the moment it's tiny and not likely to grow fat from neoGAF's ex-membership, on account of it's bland and brandless. It might grow quicker if it positioned itself as the forum for exGAFs who want to bitch about SJW's on the mother site (as opposed to the other new forums, which have positioned themselves as new, woker homes for social justice).
 
So, are these all the offshoot sites that got made? Am I missing any?
  • ResetEra
  • Opencritic Forums
  • Slaent
  • Geonaf (now dead)
  • Gaf.is (possibly made by 8ch)
  • Retrogaf (possibly a honeypot)
  • The Bore (supposedly)
  • Opa Ages (supposedly)
EDIT: The last two apparently have existed long before this shitstorm and I was wrongfully directed to them.

What you're saying makes sense, but the level of vetting these people want posters to go through just so they can all click the like button every time a mod makes a thread about a new trans developer is insane. What if you facebook friended some guy you talk to once a week on the bus, but before he does you the honor of accepting he says you have to answer three riddles and write him a 2 page essay about why you value him? You'd tell him to fuck off and go back to using facebook to fap to pics of college girls instead like god intended. Having a special focus does not mean you can't get what they're offering better and cheaper elsewhere.

Look at the verbiage "home", "journey", "emotions"... so predictable. Can someone get them some hot cocoa and blankets?

Editing in a few more here, the thread is gold.
