Ha, literally every site that mentions Neogaf shutting down is filled with either "good riddance" or "I hope they don't come here". IGN, Gamespot, MMO-Champion, Reddit, every gaming site out there hates their guts. I think the only gaming site community that's even remotely unhappy about this is from what I saw was Giant Bomb, and even then their overall reaction is kinda 50/50, with a lot of people who even admitted to liking the site calling out the shitty mods and their biases.
 
That's what I'm not so sure about. I think the only non-batshit thing that distinguishes this from the 2012 incident is that the prior incident was something that was posted on his own site, in his own words, and subject to his own control.

Here you've got something that appeared on Facebook, with a girl that has a name and face, and she's apparently now talking to the press.

I'm not sure Malka*could* come back from that. And the funny thing is that it's their own SJW bullshit they (with his approval) worked so hard to promote that has ENSURED this revelation is fatal. After all, we HAVE to believe her, right?

I think it was the hysterical, panicked overreaction that really finished them, but in retrospect, it was inevitable.

As the site's poisonous, cancerous influence over the industry waned, they were growing increasingly angry about it. The autistic tantrum over JonTron and the fact that the indie developer basically told them to go eat shit, and was unpunished, made it really clear it was no longer a social justice powerhouse but just a bunch of angry crybabies.

Tyler tried his usual ban everyone bullying but nobody was having it any more.

This can't be real.

Nothing involving that greasy floater could possibly be any good. It does seem possibly fake, though.
 
I wonder just how difficult it would be to propose a competing fork from NeoGAF by throwing the moderation team attempting ResetEra under the bus. More importantly, I wonder if I can profit from it. A new forum & domain is only $10 and an afternoon, after all.

I got a bunch of credit at Vultr.com, make a "cloud" VPS there. Maybe?
