What is also interesting is the fact that Skill Up is ordinarily a "problematic" and "cancelled" youtube channel, any posts containing his content usually get edited out by moderators. However since his review of Gears is glowing let's allow it and let people discuss it in the review thread.

People also got banned in the review thread for the most innocuous shit just because they weren't all aboard the hype train.

Like someone mentioned earlier in the thread the selective corporate shilling and astroturfing that goes on there is fucking transparent.

As time goes on it becomes more and more blatant that Isamu Fukui (AKA Cerium) the owner of Restetera only set it up in order to flip it to some corporation for a 6 figure sum that was offered to Gaf one time. Getting rid of any users that are remotely not investor/advertiser friendly and filling it up with "Progressives". Except those running it and modding have not been told and the users think they are making a utopia on the internet for minorities and LBQTA. Meanwhile, the wheels are fucking falling off/ The normies are getting run off the forum, pedo Era, Egging on a suicide, mobbing and then celebrating another suicide, blatant hypocrisy and generally hated on the internet by anyone that isn't a journo making clickbait articles especially designed to be shared by the users of Reset era.

I await the next dormant GAF account suprisingly becoming active posting a defence. once again.

The master has spoken, of course brings no receipts. There's no discussion on the forum about this? Conveniently done through DMs?

I don't buy it, especially as we have numerous examples of the staff outright lying to the community many times before.

Lot of words to say one of the mods wanted to do it, really. Unless of course the community thread has been active in hangouts....

Resetera believes in free movement and little to no border control
Resetera erects paywall border around the site, where users have to 'papers please!' before being granted access.

Resetera believes in equality and diversity
Resetera erects formidable administrative hierarchy based on genetic traits

Resetera detests oppression...
...while overwhelmingly making so much screeching noise that contrary viewpoints are swallowed. Also oppresses and validates certain groups as being 'viable' targets for belittling comments and general dismissal of their opinions based on racial group.

Resetera is progressive and believe in redemption and rehabilitation of offenders
....unless they made a misguided tweet up to fifteen years ago

Resetera promised that mods would not keep pets...
...except for a long list of informants, advisors and sycophants that regularly make the forum experience miserable for many members, and are never called out.

Resetera detests online mobs and takes stances against them....
...except in all instances they attack, harass, dox anyone who makes a character that tickles NBAR flesh policies

Resetera says historical accuracy matters with female armour, representation etc....
...except when historical accuracy does not suit them, at which point fantasy trumps accuracy because of videogames

Resetera will be open and transparent...
...to all members of their secret admin/prominent members discord channels

All questions on moderation policy for public members....
...should be discussed privately in PM's.

New members will be treated with respect and there will be no division/prestige as previously existed....
...unless your account is in junior phase and offers a contrary perspective

You forgot

Resetera does not want to engage in cross forum drama, and wants to forget 'the old place'
... except they tag the weasels who helped steal the membership from here as 'community resettlers'

I know it's too silly or that now is not the time to be silly, but wait a minute, I just only realize now...

Isamu Fukui is Cerium? I mean I sometimes keep hearing his name being called out.. but are you serious? Isamu Fukui is actually Cerium himself in the ERA forum?

Lol same excuses those shills gave on GAF 2013 onward.

"If you're too stupid to understand us, at least respect our profession. We don't need your ad revenue anyway, customer. Buy my book"

There is literally only one revenue with an online newsites that doesn't have paid subscription: Ads. Ads from gaming companies they cover.

So yeah, they literally get paid from the companies they cover.

Edit: Okay merch if they have a merch section. I don't see Kotaku pushing much merch.

They saw you posting here.
If that's the reason, wow the pettyness is off the charts!

Reee does not condone off site drama, except when they proactively search other forums and discords and can match up people with the same usernames for saying "mean things" about Ree and ban them.

That's why I don't have the same handle on there and here.

Yes? They are one of the big outlets to report on social issues in gaming. You should give some examples of what you find wrong with them.

I can't believe it's not bait!

You'd think with all that ad money he would at least buy a half-decent shirt.

He looks like a fucking fool.
He's still paying back that investor loan from his dad. servers aren't cheap, but he got a good deal getting the "community" to code it all for free.
 

So it looks like Shinobi is catching some heat for doing something with Escapist. Lot of complaints about Gamergate and whatnot, but there's some pushback stating that the site has changed and all that. Which is true, Escapist has shifted closer to Era as far as politics go over the last few months when they're not being apolitical.

That being said, there are still people there that absolutely would NOT pass Era's purity test. Yahtzee for one, who from their perspective has "both-sided gamergate" and never actually "apologized" for that stance. And that's to say nothing of the people he regularly associates with like the Penny Arcade guys or some edgelords over at Destructoid, who would also not pass Era's purity test.

So any hyper progressives triggered by everything that for some masochistic reason read this thread, maybe inform the rest of that thread that their admin is working for what is still basically a gamergate cesspool.

lol

It was legitimately funny remark based on a user that lied to people on the site for years. One of the worst parts is that they don't understand what humor is nor do they want any meta commentary. That's not healthy for real life and it's not healthy for a forum. I can't believe they gave him an absurd ban duration like 3 months.

Don’t be silly. It’s always the time to be silly.

*Karen mode engaged* I don't do Twitter and in all likleyhood they will ignore this email. For those that do tweet. Then you should tweet that post he made (That includes you offsite non GAF bros). You can try emailing as well as a backup. But we all know companies respond to Twitter more that anything. Go for it, get creative.

nush, I love you mate but leave the bitch mode cancel shit to them. I get it though — if no one calls them on it, they carry on with their bullshit while continuing to cancel others. It just feels like stooping to their level.
