Never really followed GAF before the Evilore groping scandal but that name seems to come up an awful lot in reference to the cancerous nature of NeoGAF. Is he a cow in his own right? I know there was that one mod who got done for child porn (Amir0x?) but what exactly was Besada's problem then?
Besada was the main attack dog of the NeoGAF mod crew, and the most openly corrupt out of all of them, which is one
hell of an accomplishment when you consider his competition. He was one of the biggest reasons the Yooka Laylee devs dropped JonTron after he and his buddies raised an autistic shitstorm about it, and basically mainlined the old guard of the site's biggest offenses. Suffice to say, the Gaffots who
wanted the website to be another gigantic autistic hugbox loved the guy.
Back when NeoGAF firmly got established as an SJW echo-chamber, Besada was one of the mods who worked to keep it that way, actively sabotaging efforts to drag the mod team back towards the center and doing everything he could to see the site stacked with right-thinkers. He also was one of the ones leading the charge against shit like GG and basically anyone who ran afoul of the usual suspects in Game Journalism. He repeatedly bragged about banning people who did nothing wrong by using procedural tactics, solely because he didn't like what they had to say.
An absolutely miserable piece of shit worthy of nothing but scorn.
OK, pause. Jake Alley, Mark Boyd, Bob Chipman, Andrew Dobson, Besada, and so many more. They
all fucking look like this.
I'm not trying to see connections where one may not exist, but FFS, it's always fat ugly bearded men (who claim to be women optional) with rapist glasses and a massive chip on their shoulder who always turn out to be fucking amoral psychopaths in regards to pushing the agenda. Why the fuck is that? It's fucking bizarre.
Tyler Malka is a definite cow, much like Lowtax, as he's one of those guys with the philosophy of a weathervane, happy to let shit fester so long as he profits and is also a creepy douche who, also like Lowtax, has been cursed by his own forum for being problematic.
There is
one critical difference between the two.
Malka is a triangulating shit, just like Lowtax. He is directly responsible for his forum going to shit, just like Lowtax.
However,
unlike Lowtax, he has fucking owned that. While Malka has a fucking litany of lolcow-worthy behavior under his belt, the simple fact that he was able to acknowledge that he fucked up puts him leagues above his counterpart.
