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

Paradoxically, they created a system where posting one-liners like "yikes", "Nice!", or "Byebitch" is rewarded and serves as an easy way to fudge up postcounts which gain you threading rights and protect you from the "low postcount" excuse.

It't not a driveby if you do it to a banned account. It's an act of staggering bravery to shit all over some banned guy.

So Waypoint went woke and has therefore gone broke. Resetera is very upset and are acting surprised no one but them liked Waypoint. Even at that they hardly posted Waypoint articles on their forum 🤔

Patrick "just stick it up her ass male feminist" Klepek will be looking for a new job soon to pretend he is the wokest of the woke.

Funny how everyone on Resetera just ignores Patrick's past yet they'll dig up a single tweet of someone they don't like from 10 years ago.

That's a yikes from me. Crickets on Resetera.
 
Just to add up to what has already been said about the moderation : if you mock another member for having a low post account, you can be banned. It's against the rule. Problem is, the moderation also ban people frequently if they have a "junior account" (registered for 2 months or less) and decide to say something controversial. They absolutely factor your post-count in their decision and they're not afraid to shame you for that in their ban justification.

Perfect exemple recently :


749868


User banned 5 days (lmao) for mocking a Nintendo product, which is considered trolling while in "junior phase".

749870


User warned for "post-count shaming", in the exact same conversation. Probably by the same moderator, which makes it even worse.

I know we're speaking about dumb persons, but that's reaching a new high of stupid moderation. The moderation themselves will punish you way harder for having an account with low post count. How can they warn/ban people for "post-count shaming" when they factor it in their decision ?

By the way, 5 days for saying fucking Detective Pikachu is a stupid idea and a cash grab :sighduck: Just as a comparison, here's the thread about the Sonic upcoming movie (which looks as much as stupid) : https://www.resetera.com/threads/sonic-the-hedgehog-first-trailer.114323/

19 pages about how the movie is a stupid idea and looks awful. Barely anyone banned for it. Mocking Detective Pikachu though ? Prepare your anus. Resetera smells like a Nintendo Gulag. I wouldn't be surprised if Isamu Fukui was paid by Nintendo themselves at some point, thinking this would be the new Neogaf and a big sphere of influence.

So Waypoint went woke and has therefore gone broke.

Lmao, you bastard. I'm going to steal that line.

Went woke, gone broke (or get woke go broke) is a pretty overused line... but it's truth to power. How often does a corporation/media outlet try and overdose on "wokeness" then end up alienating a lot of normal people? Should come as no surprise calling your own customers/readers pieces of shit or implying simply playing a videogame is an act of terrorism isn't going to pay the bills.

Waypoint's viewing numbers will have been trash for quite a while.

You're not far from the mark. One of the few areas ResetEra has influence is someone from Nintendo Treehouse posts there. With how desperate they are to be a mover and shaker in the industry, and Nintendo Treehouse willing to censor games at ResetEra's say so, they likely don't want people bad mouthing the big N.
 
If you post even the slightest hint of transphobia, they will go after your ass for real. There's being an ally, then there's going too far and just looking like a bunch of assholes.

You can say what you want about NeoGAF, but I swear their moderation was nowhere near as ridiculous as ResetERA's standards.

Patrick Klepek doesn't want the "alt-right Yakuza meme" to let everyone know he actually approves of rape and rape jokes


How funny is that, that Klepek is sitting right there on Era for them to post their receipts about how they know Patrick is a dirty boy, but they won't do it 🤔

This one picture alone would sink PDP

But we don't talk about Patrick's past. He's our woke boy now. Mods will ban us for speaking up about him.

"Undermine your credibility" Patrick? You do that yourself, your little following are just scared to speak about you as Cerium will get them all banned for vilifying "journalism".

LOL someone has done it

To Patrick, his problematic jokes and actions are just a LOL because mods will ban the wrong-think that asks him to apologize or recognize his past. Not just delete it all from Photobucket/Twitter.

Pretty much no one else, not even the big establishment media giants, are going to willingly invest in some trash forum that will make them look bad. It would really be like if a company like NBC bought out the Channel Awesome brand to get more in touch with the online world in all. Go take a look what happened when Univision bought out the Fusion Media Group because when they bought out the Fusion Media Group they would also pretty much end up buying out Gizmondo which owns Kotaku that's not making them that much money and now they're in the process of getting rid of it.

There's no real value in buying out websites like Waypoint and especially there's no real value in buying out websites like ResetEra for that matter.

They probably follow this thread to see who to ban.
I doubt that, they haven't banned my excelsiorlef account yet.

Okay then. Let's say Patrick was just joking. That he was just pretending to be cover his eyes at the sight of a woman in a bikini.

I don't get the joke. What's supposed to be funny? Is he supposed to making fun of people who are massive prudes? Is he making fun of himself? Is he making fun of social justice? By saying it's a joke changes it from "Patrick is a massive prude that is triggered by the image of a woman in a bikini" to "Patrick is a massive prude that is triggered by the image of a woman in a bikini, ironically".

No one has to make things up to undermine his credibility, he does that himself by posting on ResetEra.

Riot Games brown nosing the woke agenda.
 
they likely don't want people bad mouthing the big N.
I dunno, they reeed over the Ali Rapp shitcanning and throw a fit every time Nintendo restates their refusal to inject real-world politics into their games about a fat plumber beating up a gay turtle among other things.

and Nintendo Treehouse willing to censor games at ResetEra's say so
Nintendo isn't the one censoring their games anymore though, that's Sony. It's been a while since we've seen any Treehouse controversy so if I had to guess this would just be another example of a single employee using the forum because he likes it or whatever.

Even if the mods had an agenda towards Nintendo it would be hard for them to enforce it when their screeching monkey userbase is flinging shit again because Mario is rescuing the princess or Link isn't a grill.
