NeoGAF explodes...
« on: October 21, 2017, 03:35:29 PM »
So NeoGAF, the great hive-mind of "guilty till innocent" has exploded...why? Cause the grand leader of the pack is an ass grabbin f*ckwit, lol

All the mods jumped ship, place is far from stable at the moment, and it's trending on the twits...

It's a fun dumpster fire to stare at.

Who would have guessed that people that act like ass holes while touting, I am against a$$holes, are in fact giant ass holes?





NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

Spenoza: The wannabe masculinity just overwhelms.

A Black Falcons favorite hangout. Bolt the doors, he might be on the way.

What an sjw shithole. Dozens are banned a day for disagreeing even slightly with the hive mind, and I wish I was joking. I’m surprised it took this long to fall apart

A nice place to get gaming news but an awful place for any discussion

There were many that called this out for ages, and it all got swept under the rug or ignored, hell I got banned there twice.

I'm glad it's finally falling apart, like it was said before great place for gaming news, but the OT that was a f*ckin train wreck of epic proportions.

I don't think neogaf is a SJW place as much as it is a place with too many powertripping idiots per square meter

Not sure why I would even know this, but apparently a large bulk of the neogaf herd have abandoned ship and have headed towards the Waypoint message boards. No idea what that is.
Maybe a place now for former GAFers to reminisce and console each other.

Can't say I've ever ventured there.

IMO Gaf was useful for news until, like, reddits became things.  I'm not sad to see it go.

The whole story sounds like a bunch of bullshit, that's blown out proportion.

So the accuser and this evilore guy used to have a physical relationship, and for whatever reason, they broke it off but remained friends. She gets another boyfriend, and while attached to said BF, she and evilore decide to take a "just friends" road trip to New Orleans.  While getting drunk in the hotel room together, she gets sick and decides to get in the shower. He gets in the shower too. She lets him know it's not cool, and he gets out, and is mean to her the rest of the trip.

WTF? 1. What boyfriend is cool with their girl taking a road trip, with an ex boyfriend?

2. If two adults of the opposite sex are spending the night in a hotel and getting drunk together, I guarantee you sex is on someone's mind. Especially since they had a sexual history.

What a bunch of dumb shit.

Hm, the one key fact I didn't know was they used to date and had a physical relationship. The way it was told is they were friends and I guess he misread some signals thinking he could sneak in the shower with her...

I don't see why this should bring the place down, but you recently had a pedofiend moderator arrested for child porn also! Still, that was his problem and I don't think it should together be able to bring down the whole ship, but whatever...

They're young, ban-happy, unforgiving, virtue-signaling protest warrior know-it-alls, so if a bunch of mods and members are bolting over this, understandable why the overreaction.

I will say, I like that they once banned Tom-chan Lipschultz of XXXSEED Games for obvious reasons, but the particular post of him being a weasel in claiming anime characters have no age (except from when they were drawn!) didn't quite warrant it by itself although it's technically the basis for his defense of animated child pornography, an obsession of his, so always nice to learn the slippery bastard can get banned somewhere even if it was temporary.

The forum was gonna collapse sooner or later. The hivemind mentality was Reddit times 10.

The fact that the mods all quit without even reading the full story should tell you what their real loyalties belonged to. Social Justice and violently banning anyone who interfered.

I was only granted permission to post there about a month ago.  Decent site for video game news and discussion, but if you venture into the Off topic forms, be prepared to get your head cut off if you are anything but an extreme leftist.
