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

Tyler’s goal is/was to be a mover and a shaker in the gaming industry. It sounds really gay (and it is) but this is what he wanted. He wanted NeoGAF to be the place journalists, developers, etc went to (ironically enough he was a lot closer to this goal in the 2000s than in the 2010s). He was up shit’s creek with Showergate of course.

The only reason why he temporarily changed is that he hoped he could rebuild momentum. He was always going to go back to being a bootlicker. He changed back to his old ways because NeoGAF failed to grow. So he’s going with Plan C, roll over and hope the woke gaming mobs will accept him. They won’t. He thinks he’s done his time but forgets that the woke mobs that he helped to encourage neither forgives or forgets.

Did neogaf failed to grow though?

It went from like having 200 users online to 800 before the election purge.

Full disclosure, it was an alt account, and Evil told me to behave myself and I could stick around with my new account.

I 100% believe him on his "shower incident" but how he's running GAF now is a crying shame.

Oh wow, I didn't recognise your avatar. You were/are a good poster.
 
Recent bans on gaf have been REE levels of faggotry. Some good posters have been banned without good reason. Most of em had 15,000 posts each. way to run a forum tyler!

Did anyone get a screen grab of Soy_Sauce's final post? It's been deleted and scrubbed from the site. Gaf is down 17,000 places since the big ban spree after jan 6th. Good business model that

@Yuri Normus I liked you man, we shared some good laughs. It's a shame you were banned
 
It is continously dropping. And India makes up ~9% of the traffic?
He is buying activity from a content farm in india?
It's a shitty website. They're from India.

The reason they'd like the website should be obvious.

Quick, call another summit! If we keep holding them eventually they'll work!
 
It only shows the last 90 days thought, we'd need to see since 2016 to see how it did since the split.
It is hard to tell. Even wayback machine does not have any snapshots that far back, but it is definitely a decline going on.
I just compared the activity on the Gaming forum third week of april in 2020 and 2021.
In 2020, that forum averaged ~3500 posts per day. This year the activity for third week of april is down to ~2500 posts per day, so whatever his frequent ban sprees are doing, hte site is not moving in the right direction.
 
Still have an account there but doubt will visit much because politics was the only decent section. Without it there is no reason to go there.
Gaming section has barely any discussion aside from xbox/sony wars and has no scoops/news that are not pulled from somewhere else.
As far as offtopic goes, plenty of non-political special interest forums.

TBH I do not judge him. He is screwed - the woke do not forgive, and you cannot have a site that claims to be mainstream with even a whiff of wrongthink.

It'll be fun to see the inevitable collide between the half that wants to arm themselves for the zombie apocalypse and the side that wants to ban guns.

"only white people care about animals" is a weird stand to take imo
Is that hidden anti-asian racism saying that?
Only white people care about their pets.

That is just one step away from:
Asian people eat their pets.

I don't know but if the faggot is trying to look woke and hating whitey, this might not be the best way to do it.
 
2 days in to no politics on gaf and Vestal and elfs pet, Nobody Important are policing off topic threads for political content.

They've already bagged their first victim

GAF is in trouble. After those posters were banned for liking content, reactions have ground to a halt. reactions are evilors metric of how healthy the forum is.

you can scroll through any page and see how few reactions are posted

If this keep going like this, Adelf Hitlore will have to do something yuge
 
Flattery...and all that.
Add me to the @Yuri Normus circle-jerk. I believe we shared some good banter.

Former GAFfer here. I enjoyed GAF as it appeared to be a reasonable speakeasy without trying to be too edgy.
The policy change brought in the paranoia and walking-on-eggshells feel, and the snivelling hall-monitor stooges that live for it.

I've been entertained by watching how things have gone in 2021.
At this stage, I'm just waiting from them to drop all pretence and introduce a new purple theme for the site.

The ban page doesn't even show the posts that resulted in bans anymore so if anyone catches and can archive them here that'd be nice.
 
I do, fuck him. It is a situation entirely of his own making.
yep. the guy has shown time and time again that he has no fucking clue what he's doing.

When Jan 6th kicked off he should have moved his servers abroad, and moved it to moderate/right leaning. Hell, I would have even phoned Trump and asked if he wants to use my platform as a jumping off point.

Money is all that matters in business. Forum friends don't pay the mortgage
