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

Hbo is making a TLOU show, so it's a Niagara of diarrhea. But at least the Resetera crew is happy, right? One part of me wants them to be happy even just once.
The closest they get to happiness is schadenfreude. Nothing brings them joy except the misery of those they hate, and they hate most people. To wish them happiness is to wish for disasters to befall their enemies, which includes you for posting here.

In general, the more miserable ResetEra types are, the happier the world is, because they are greatly outnumbered by the 'alt-right Nazi chud GamerGater TERF centrist racist misogynist etc. etc. etc.' types they despise mostly because they call everybody those things. Like most lolcows, the net happiness of the world would improve if everyone on ResetEra, especially the all-stars that recur in this thread, were to vanish in a puff of smoke; not only are they active spreaders of misery both in their hugbox and what measures of the internet they use outside that, but a great number of them (and we have proof of this for at least a bunch) are making the lives of the people around them worse as well.

Happiness is a bannable offence on ResetEra because it means you're not spending all your time and energy focussing on the miserable existence all minorities lead because of the cis/straight/white/male/neurotypical/able-bodied/again with the etc. etc. etc. That is remarkably close to not being a parodic statement.
 
Neogaf news update!!

I have been following tthe number of average online users over the past few weeks, seeing what the average trend was so I could report to this thread.

last week the average had fallen to 250 users online, a drop in ~1000 users compared to this time last year.

Today, the average user count is...gone. Tyler has removed it. There is no average user count.

I will triple down on what I've said previously. Neogaf is about to be sold to a bigger player. You heard it here first.

GG Tyler. You sold your website out to the lefties cucks who fled to reee because they hate you. The same lefties cucks who shit up your political board and cried when posters were mean to Biden. They cried so much that you closed your politics board - the most successful board on your site and those same posters have now abandoned you completely.

Yes this is a cringe sperg post but after Tyler spat in the face's of the people who saved his forum from the ashes, he can go fuck himself.

with that said, if you're reading this Tyler and want to know how to save your website, slide in to my DMs


The elf killing his source of income for good by cucking hard to the same people who ass raped him is Hotwheels tier of lolcowing :story:

Maybe someone here could buy it for a dollar and and turn it in a place to expand our farming ground :cunningpepe:

He fucked himself hard during the election period of November - January. His mask slipped and his contempt for Trump, combined with the coat-tailers egging him on to enact revenge on all of the mean Trump supporters by banning them - even though more than 80% were non-American commonwealth and Brits, led to a mass exodus and mass banning of members. IIRC at the time, he banned 20% of the members who contributed 80% of the posts on the forum.

Then when he banned 5 or 6 people for 'liking' a post - a post that got the user banned for white supremacy, his reactions dropped like a fart in a sauna.

The writing was on the wall when he banned the clown world thread though. First he renamed it because the advertisers told him, then he outright banned it. I'm pretty sure his 'advertisers' that he was appeasing, called for the banning of the politics sub-forum because it was wall-to-wall of Biden gaffes and fuck ups, sending the scREEEchers into a sobbing mound of crybabies - even though Trumps good and bad points were open season, and quite rightly too.

I reckon he could have saved the forum completely in January/February, then every month after that it has got harder and harder to save face. Now? Maybe, maybe he could save it and change direction but he's too stubburn, thin-skinned and autistic to do it.

Man i could write a novel on how many times that guy has stumbled on to something fucking amazing and pissed it away because hes a retard.

The only way to save Gaf now is a change of management, Elf either stepping down completely or disppearing in to the shadows and letting someone else run the show, and doubling down on gaming and free speech politics. Basically Kiwi-farms' autistic thunder dome, plus gaming minus the acceptable use of faggot and nigger.
 
People on Era start to question whether the deranged Victoria's Secret lady might be deranged or something.

This enrages the NepHentai.View attachment 2356924

"My opinion is not invalid because you are a mod"

That's where you're wrong, kiddo.

"My opinion seems to be of no value"

Finally he gets it but unfortunately for him, it comes too late.
We can’t be sure this person is mentally ill because we’re not doctors, so rather than make the assumption that it’s possible, we’re going to say that it’s definitely white supremacy and that attempting to say it might be illness is both racist and stigmatizing mentally ill people (even though she’s not mentally ill).
As someone once said to me “of course that makes sense to you, because you’re an asshole”.
 
I would buy neogaf and turn it around in 6 months. It's pretty easy to do especially with a new owner at the helm.

Hell, i still think there's a possibility that Tyler could turn his fortunes around. Maybe. He could have done so back in february, but that window is just about closed right now. It's still worth a shot though if he's about to lose it all.
At this point we know Tyler couldn't. He's the person who made it shitty in the first place.

He fucked it up in the first place, then was given a second chance by the very people he'd fucked over, and then pissed that away too by fucking them over again, in favor of the people who cucked him out of more than half his users in the first place. There is no way to recover from that level of cuckoldry and it was extreme optimism that led me even to believe it was possible.

Everyone wants rid of the farms but the farms will outlive all these cucked owners who try to blow with the wind.

Isamu Fukui's empire will fall as well, Resetera will only be able to handle so many implosions before it's made known one of the jannies is a pedophile.

Tyler Malka is probably salty most of this topic is about Resetera now. Gone are the days anyone even looks at NeoGAF to see a lolcow zoo. It's just sad now, Tyler even chased off the normies after the inmates ran off to Resetera.

The time is ripe to make a gaming forum that is conservative in approach, without going full farms or storm front.

Most users on Gaf 2020 enjoyed the atmosphere. It was a boys club full of tits, arse and banter, without the over the top sperging about niggers and faggots. It was a good, popular balance.

It only takes one clever person to maneuvre themselves to sit between REE/Gaf and one side and Farms on the other. Make it about gaming, court some devs and voila, popular as fuck website.

It will be named GameFuqs.

It was absolutely harmless as well, you could barely even call it edgy. But many wise chinamen said "You can never trust the Elf" and here we are. Circling the drain again.

The smartest thing Tyler could have done after decucking NeoGAF was to fuck off like Isamu Fukui and see if the site naturally grew again and focused on games, fun and some non faggoty political discussion for those that wanted it. But he can't help himself. Truly one of the biggest lolcows when it comes to internet forums.

He didn't step away but he did join in, was accepted and even posted some genuinely funny stuff. Then he just went off the deep-end again.

The 'clique' would have kept that site running just fine. They scared off the REEE faggots while keeping the banter on point, not to mention most of them were subbing gold as well. Tyler may not have been the next zuckerburg with that approach, but with his current approach his only income will be playing head elf for Wal-Mart's Santa's Grotto.

This is going to sound petty, but while i will miss the site, there are a few members who i cannot fucking wait to see the back of.

The Gaf community thread is the most cringey, coma-inducing, boring shit i've ever read on the internet. No hyperbole.

It doesn't need to (and shouldn't) be conservative. It just needs to be about games. It needs to be open and free (and absolutely should tell game journos that they won't get special treatment) and just let the community run wild. Anyone can say anything without getting banned - the community will decide what floats and what sinks on its own.

Alternately, do what you're doing. How's that working out?

That would be nice, but i don't think it would work in practice for a mainstream site. I don't agree with any censorship but it happens on every site, even this one.

reigning it in and toning it down a little bit out of respect is a reasonable ask. Other than that, no opinion should be ban worthy, funny drive bys should be encouraged ('Cunth' was top notch at those), and the rest should just be banter about games, off topic shit and politics. The politics forum had some funny takes in it. Keep deep conversation away from it, and have it more mockery than anything.

Basically, if golden era South Park ran a gaming website

I can get behind that too - letting the perfect be the enemy of the good is generally a bad idea.

That said, make sure that a game journo is just another fucking poster is important.
