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

Jaimas said:
The thing about any community they try to join (to co-opt) or create (to begin again) is that without leadership keeping them on-task, they're completely unable to break out of circular firing squad mode. Since GAF's entire leadership-base was just discredited (associated forever with Malka's defense of both himself and Amir0x, thrown under the bus as closet GG supporters), they can't get their old leadership back.

I think a number of sites are going to have to adopt a zero tolerance, go be a triggered pussy somewhere else policy to prevent metastasis.

The forum is partially back up.

Its not fully functional yet, but its a hell of a lot closer to being back up than it was.

Even when Evilore decides to open up NeoGAF back I doubt any of the former members would even want to touch it unless he steps down.

Moderators are his key issue right now. I bet if he opens back up he can contain at least 50% of his userbase. That's not to say half will go to ResetEra. I estimate 10% of the exodus would wind up at the new ultra hugbox.

This was largely a mod revolt. Anyone with any pride has gone for good. I imagine there are probably a couple beta-tier mods who are looking at this as an opportunity for more power, but these are the dumb ones.

I imagine some users have already gone on to other things, or are maybe even realizing what an oppressive shithole the site was. The longer it's down or barely functional, the fewer will return.

It would be for his best to find new mods, and change the direction completely for the forum. I doubt he didn't realize by now how bad having distilled SJW can be.

Whole situation at this point is like how a hurricane/earthquake/tornado/whatever might tear down shit that's been there for centuries in one day, but the people sure will eagerly rebuild even though another one will inevitably come.

They say they _really_ want EvilLore to step down so everything can "go back to normal". They are resistant to the idea that EvilLore would never do that due to business/financial/career reasons, insisting that "it's bigger than him". When asked what about a "new forum" they _hate_ the idea of losing the prestige of the sites name that a migration would involve.

This is a post I wanted to reply to at its time, but I didn't have the time back then:

Why are we so shockingly well behaved compared to these guys?
Click to expand...
Because we are truthful to ourselves, we don't really pretend to be better people than we really are, we acknowledge our issues quietly and don't project them onto others, in fact, we hound out those that do and call them A-Logs.

And above all, we value free speech, anyone here can voice their opinions, and we may ridicule them or give them :autism: ratings, or even halal them if they're being totally exceptional, but they will always be able to speak their minds, an example that comes to mind is King of /pol/.

Of course, we aren't some great bastion of freedom or whatever, we are just patrons of a forum that exists to laugh at exceptional people, but at least we're honest about it and (mostly) have nothing to hide.

How many Kiwi rapists have there been? Oh, yeah. None. None at all.

Well, we did have that sped who turned out to be the admin of a rape fantasy forum. But we discovered that after he was halaled, I think.

How come every single "male feminist" is either already known as a rapist or soon to be known as a rapist?

You should reverse the question, it's" "How come every single rapist or soon to be known rapist turns out to have been a male feminist?"

To me, there's no such thing as a male radical feminist, it's such a contradictory term IMO. Because why would anyone campaign to limit their own rights? Even if they were ill-begotten, I'd rather have my rights and not use them voluntarily instead of not having them at all. It's all just trollshielding, those assholes all have skeletons in the closets, Schreier's forum purge from a couple pages back is only the newest proof of this.

But then they lose out on the SJW street cred, they would be supporting a serial rapist's income. And that's problematic my friend.

This goes to tell you how useless those SJWs really are, they can't even bear the effort to build their own hugbox, they want Malka to abandon his main income so they don't have to change & adapt. You know those people are the worst, most annoying employees in any establishment they're at, and that's if they're even employed.

And fuck yes NeoGAF's name is tarnished, it's on all those headlines now, and if it wasn't, then why did all those mods & admins escape faster than the rats on the Titanic?

Lol these bubble boy babies think they have prestige? Did they even look around after their hugbox burned down and literally everyone, the entire spectrum from far right to far left, fucking laughed at them and told them what shit they are?

NeoGAF is less respected a name than syphilis and herpes.
