It's a very convinient way to get your news and it's not that much of a hivemind, at least you're bound to stumble on every possible opinion. Not everyone here is a souls fanboy who thinks platinum should do every game and has a vocabulary that consists of "goat, trash, janky and oozes charm"
That hypocritical sony fanboy admin who is the embodiment of this site's bad name needs to go though. Like people here are quick to call people assholes for sounding intolerant, well it would be incredibly hypocritical to tolerate this site's horrible staff. He all condescending on OT to people with confidence issues that claim they can never find a partner by saying shit like "a woman doesn't owe you sex" when he's a rapist ass himself. Same with that gaping asshole dude with the ugly ass lucas avatar that is somehow not permabanned even though he's a known criminal on many aspects. So calling people that aren't entirely progressives assholes is ok but once you call out the corrupt staff, instabanned. Just sell it for 5m to whoever offered, they probably aren't criminals
Removing off-topic and banning the mentions of politics isn't a solution, no wonder shit like the jontron incident happens/freaking trump is president. Politics are everywhere, same with being a socially functional person that isn't a rapist/pedophile/abuser/etc. Being in a place about videogames, whether it's online or offline, doesn't exempt you from this. Be responsible and recognize your mistake
