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

I've certainly seen cringy mod messages here, and even started a thread on it, but by comparison to there, you have to go virtually apeshit here to get banned from anything.
it helps that by behaving badly here, you literally become the thing we value most entertainment-wise, so the systems naturally reinforce themselves. Users try to avoid being a target of ridicule here, and users that fail become content which keeps everyone else in line & occupied. And there's subforums dedicated to being outlets of dumb behavior, like doge sticker spamming and "forum games."
 
EviLore would like to talk to you about Zoe Quinn: https://www.neogaf.com/threads/jaso...d-drama-appears.1462300/page-3#post-253257791 (https://archive.fo/UdiG1)

Anyone notice we got an uncensored shout-out in that extreme paranoia thread? https://www.resetera.com/threads/ar...t-secret-trump-supporters.41356/#post-7713494 (https://web.archive.org/web/2018051...ts-on-era-just-secret-trump-supporters.41356/)

2 week ban over a video game opinion on a forum that hands out warnings and 3 day bans for advocating gender-based, race-based and politics-based genocide. I wonder why... https://www.resetera.com/posts/7772310/ (https://web.archive.org/web/2018051...esda-game-studios-game-this-year.41698/page-2)

I get the feeling that upper management is going hard on the mods to crack down on the violence rhetoric. I'm seeing people get warnings for even half-joking about it. I find it hilarious that this SJW hivemind forum literally has a hate-speech problem, as in the most basic concept of hate-speech, as in directly advocating violence based on group collectivism. Even on KiwiFarms we have a rule about A-logging being mad on the internet.
 


EviLore was perfectly fine with his gaffots dumping on Eron Gjoni, Palmer Luckey and his girlfriend, Notch, or Vavra until the Kotaku clickbait reaper came for him next.
 
He has no more fucks to give. None. He's not quite Captain Ahab yet, but they bit him and he's pretty miffed about it.
He's going through the middle stages of political zealot rehab. The first stage is realizing that the movement you dogmatically support doesn't give a fuck about you, which he learned the hard way during the destruction of GAF. Now he's opening himself up to actual discourse and listening to the opposing side. Assuming he doesn't relapse, he will soon become fully red pilled and realize that political affiliations are ultimately meaningless and the best policy is to just live and let live.

Something like Black Panther was a bit of a hard sell for some countries like China, to the point where the advertisements downplayed the black characters. Having a superhero movie with predominately LBGT characters is just asking for the movie to be banned in countries that don't have the tolerance or patience for such a thing.

It's simple business sense, Marvel Studios wouldn't dare risk having a bomb just to appease a minority of people.

I don't think he was ever that attached to the SJW bullshit. Much like Low-T, he let a bunch of SJW cunts take over moderation because of laziness or whatever, and then was stuck pandering to these loonies. Once they tried to #metoo him over ancient bullshit that wasn't even that bad and took their ballpit and moved over to REEEsetera, he had no reason to pander to them any more.

And worst (but funniest) case would be him overconsuming redpills and becoming the next Cheong.

The GAF mods never had Evilore by the balls though. Lowtax pays lip service to his SJW cronies because they've got their tentacles wrapped so tightly around the site's inner workings that there's no way for him to get rid of them without torpedoing the entire thing. Evilore was never owned like that, he always had the final say and he did occasionally overrule the mods when they tipped their hand too heavily. You're right to a certain degree, but I don't think he was just a victim of circumstance. I think he (mostly) genuinely believed the angle he was allowing the forums to push and only reexamined his beliefs once he was faced with clear evidence that he was mistaken.

Well all we can learn from this is never allow these crazies to get any form of power as they will always pollute your space with their filth.
