Only got a warning because of attacking the mods instead of other users, how pathetic.

Maybe I'm just misunderstanding the context of what Incel Spreadsheet means by "banning".

Perhaps Captain Autismo has some kind of severe brain damage and believes "I'm going to kill myself" is just another way of saying "I'm going to play more Splatoon"
In his case it's a really good thing there's no in-game voice chat. Imagine that you just want to kick back with your game for a bit and this fucking sped starts screaming about offing himself every time his team is losing.

Why is he still around? I know he's some kind of protected class, but surely that has limits? Anyone else would've been banned many times over. There has to come a point where all the staff are sick of his bullshit. He must have dirt on the rest of the mods, it's the only explanation I can think of.

He keeps the mods supplied with reports (everyone who replies to him). He also dances like a little monkey to their tune and is generally amusing. once the fun and novelty wear off he'll be discarded like Lime, Nokterian and Cream before him.

Excel at Autism has to be one of their most active members. In a year, it's made 25k posts.
 
Some idiot on Eurogaymer wrote a Tumblr-level """"""""article""""""" about reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee HP Lovecraft: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-10-09-games-really-need-to-fall-out-of-love-with-lovecraft (I encourage checking the comment section where it's just people dunking on her) which led to a reetardera thread because why does the site exist if not to shill every article game journos shit out?

MonsterMech had apparently never heard of fucking HP Lovecraft before (presumably they live in a ditch) but that didn't stop them any from proceeding to spend the next 10 pages reeeeeeeeeeeeeing about him which eventually led to this:

where they accuse the developer of last year's hit "get fucked in the ass by RNG" game Dankest Dungeon of being extreme racists because muh feels at which point the dipshit mods had no point but to step in and suspend them.

Describing Darkest Dungeon as "anti-corporate" is such an unbelievable reach, what a bunch of nutjobs.
 
""""""""article"""""""
Calling it Tumblr level is generous, there are probably Twitter rants that are longer.

It's the bog standard "Let's judge an artist of the past by comparing them to modern politics" type nonsense. It feels like the author just heard about Lovecraft, and in the same conversation was told he was a racist and rushed to write an article on it.

I'd call it a thinly veiled advertisement for SOMA, but that implies the presence of a veil. Trying to connect the 2 is dumb. Lovecraft has cosmic, unknowable horror and insanity as it's main themes. SOMA is about putting human personalities into robot bodies. What's great is they imply anything inspired by or similar to Lovecraft is also racist. The people that made SOMA made Amnesia, a Lovecraft inspired game.

But this is ResetEra, they are likely torn between "giving racists a platform" and "criticising game journalism".

Those were exactly the kinds of posts i made before i got banned, Reee really digs that whole milkshake duck thing so it's a shame if you miss the chance to villify one of their last few 'Heroes'. Always stir the pot for some more salty replies.
 
I thought that was the name of a dog in one of his short stories?
It was. Niggerman was a surprisingly acceptable name for a black-coated pet back in the day; I guess it was a bit like calling a cat "Blackie" or "Smokey" today.
EDIT: To make a more substantial contribution to the thread: Lovecraft's position on racism evolved as he grew older, and late in his life he wrote personal letters regretting some of his earlier work for its racist themes (which themselves were fueled by his paranoid fear of the world outside of urban Rhode Island). If he hadn't died fairly young, I suspect he would have become part of the Civil Rights movement. His later novels, At the Mountains of Madness and The Shadow Out of Time, can even be seen as a partial repudiation of his earlier works; the Elder Things and the Great Race in those works are alien, but portrayed as equal to man in virtue and temperament, as opposed to wholly malevolent. But of course, NeoGAF would prefer to have a mentally-ill author be defined by his worst works than allow for any shade of moral complexity.

Brazilian man attempts to make sense of the world, and the real problems his country faces, on a discussion forum.

Is immediately banned for wrongthink.

Truly these are a collective of exceptional unpleasant stupid cunts.

I'm also awaiting the meltdown when they realise that 100% gay Ronaldo didn't rape that woman, and the subsequent ban fest.

Still, great theatre.
