Officially done with RE. Can't even read a thread without it being completely derailed by nonsense. Can't make a post without some idiot replying with "nah your opinion is wrong. Here's my opinion which is right."

I put up with that site for way too long.

I feel like there are a lot more who will get sick of it too eventually. There's surprisingly still a decent amount of rational posters, despite the culture there, who I think put up with it because it's popular. But everyone has their limit... lol



Hahahaha

So many dummies in there who think that crowbcat is saying the game is trash or something.

My official ban reason:

You have been banned for the following reason: Downplaying hate and intolerance, history of infractions. Ban changed to permanent after review..

Basically was ripping on last Jedi and of course they assumed it was because I must be bigoted in some way even though I never mentioned anything of the sort.

Past infractions would have been mocking the people who cut off their family members etc due to the 2016 election fallout.

Honestly didn’t do anything bad they just didn’t like my tone.
Nah, they just need to ban people for no real reason for their daily dose of ego.

Fuck them.

lol this fuckwit throwing everyone who gets racially or sexually harassed online who isn't a Star Wars fan under the bus. apparently it's the only series where this sort of thing happens. it isn't the fact that this woman is hugely famous on social media and that Twitter is an inherently toxic medium. no. social media is famously a very forgiving and chill place! seriously!

:messenger_loudly_crying: just the endless anti fan takes from this whole thing. i bet this woman was a fcking plant tbh
Cheebo is a piece of work. Cheebo, Fred Mercury, and Slayven along with another weird poster ruin SW threads.

Cheebo reads about the twitter bulies who threatened this girl with exposing her personal info......

and says: "Era is no better. People here were defending Daisy Ridley's friend's friend at a birthparty who said to Daisy that she liked TFA but didn't like TLJ" (not exact quote, just giving you the context)

"Era is no better. A few months ago there was a lot of members here who defended the *harasser* when Daisy Ridley said in an interview that she was harassed by someone who didn’t like TLJ."

So at a friends birthday party, telling meeting a mutual friend of yours (Daisy in this case) and saying "Hey I really liked the 1st SW movie you were in, but I didn't like the 2nd one" is as bad as these twitter bullies sending death threats?

Cheebo is, as Bill Maher states, a "distinction denier". No degrees of badness recognized.

One of the most screencapped Reetard is having real world problems. It's posters like this that are the top active SJW's on Ree and removing them would be beneficial to the whole tone of that forum.

He then dodges every question about what job he actually does, but a little post diving and...

It's his first "Job" an intern.

another one for the confirmation bias that these guys are just big men on the internet and that does not translate to being a man in the real world. He's been a true prominent era member for a long long time.

Yeah I'd prefer not to have 4 more years of a corrupt, hypocticial, pathological liar TV personality who's ego is the size of the planet Earth (which he doesn't give a shit about) who refuses to admit any mistakes he makes. And I don't care if he paid off porn stars or cheated on his wife. I know most people in politics a liars but i HATE liars and Trump takes it to the next fucking level, to the point where it's hard to comprehend. People who attribute the economy's success to Trump just need to look at a model of the direction the job market and economy were taking when he took office. I can't tell if Hillary would be worse but she sucks too. Bernie is the only person who actively gives a shit. Trump just did it for his brand. He's also a barely-literate draft dodging coward who is convinced in anything by the last person he spoke to.

Mercury Fred is a lunatic. recently they were actually arguing "why are trans joke ok but not blackface?" because Dave Chapelle made them mad and I guess the argument is that black people are less oppressed than white trans people.

You said nothing is off limits in comedy. So is that actually nothing or just some things?

And further why is the mockery of the existence of trans people open season but black face may not be? They're not the same but they are similar in that both dehumanize marginalized people.
yes a word literally used by slave masters and a stereotype used to belittle and mock black people for decades, both of these are the same as joking that trans people sit in the back seat of a car. how come it's not "open season" on black people? /s you can't make this shit up. a woke racist.

Those are the dickheads that fucked up this place to create their toxic safe space over there. That's the tone they want. And the tone their members deserve.
The members enable it by being there, they can suck it up.

lol this is a story about Disney taking over some film studios in England. yet a mod pops in to somehow turn it into a plea for corporations to come in and change the political makeup.

You probably post about me on another board.

Yes flood Atlanta and the surrounding areas with more and more of your heathen Left coast ways.....more more turn Athens into Neo Berkley!!!

Turn it all purple than blue
yay let's import your "heathen Left coast ways"! maybe Atlanta and the surrounding areas can grow it's homeless population by 13% too.
big surprise this nob is a mod. this story has nothing to do with politics yet immediately jump to "let's shit on everyone not living in our coastal bubble."

To be fair to RE, if you just put every single member whose discourse you dislike on Ignore, and hide every socio-politically charged thread that sneaks into Gaming, it's still pretty readable simply due to the quantity of level-headed posters posting. They're a lot more visible when you block out the hotheads.

That said, you cant block the moderation. That's still an issue for them.

I did that. Put the usual suspects on ignore and the place was okay for a while. It's imøressive how much a handful of people dominate that site.

Didn't last though. Threads kept getting messed up by the soldiers of virtue, and I requested an account deletion after getting another pathetic ban.

They have issued ten thousand bans so far, that's 25% of thier user base. It's pure insanity over there.

Jesus. It looks like D dark10x is getting a bunch of backlash over the Gears 5 DF video.


I'm temporarily breaking my 'no posting on forums' rule to defend against this. I note that their performance results are almost exactly the same as mine in those same scenes (drops to low 50s with torn frames). However, I only tested those certain scenes as I had to manually add in a few torn frames here and there which the tools annoyingly missed - so it took hours to do the FPS tests. It sucks.

Secondly, I specifically did not mention the lowest resolution as I hadn't found one that low. Pay attention to the wording - values such as "XXX" and "YYY". That's not the minimum, those were the averages that I found - as in, numbers that popped up often. Even getting those numbers takes a long time and it's just not possible to produce a video of this scale while getting every single DRS value - honestly, dynamic resolutions stress me out to an unhealthy degree. It is not my specialty finding all possible values - I can only do that given hours of time to work with. That's something I've always struggled with.

I should never have covered this damn game. All it has brought me is misery from angry PlayStation fans. Internet mobs can go to hell.

Alright, signing off again.

I don’t know the exact day Era formed. Somewhere around Dec 1 2019?

That’s roughly 650 days ago.

10000 bans \ 650 days = an average of 15 people banned each and every day since the site was created.

Amazing.

The guy got one questioning comment in the whole thread which was not even bad just wondering why other graphics review showed different values, the rest of the comments are quite supportive of his review. So I'm not sure why the guy is so defensive but then again that's Era I guess...

I don't think the backlash was from Era (for once) I think it was more the Youtube, Twitter, FB mobs, but that is just me speculating.

Just to clear things up here too. It wasn't his comment specifically. Not at all. It's more that the insane number of people who are VERY upset that I was positive about Gears 5 to the point where they're making bad videos about it while clearly not understanding at all what's even being said. It's too much! I was just super fed up and done.

I'm mostly on forum hiatus right now, though (for various reasons), but wanted to make sure that much was clear. I'm just irritated by the reaction especially considering the insane hours it took to finish that darn video last week.

I liked the video and the game. I certainly understand why you and others wouldn’t want to interact a ton with viewers tho.

DF videos and overall content has always been good. Try not to allow negativity shut you down

Oh ok, I thought it was in the context of the Era thread which had me confused. I can imagine you get lots of backslash since that's how many gaming fanboys roll.

They're always giving the poor guy unnecessary shit. But to be fair, certain long winded and delusional fanboys on GAF are guilty of that too.

I know most of this thread is people dunking on ResetEra, but I have to say: I'm not a user there, never really considered posting in their forum - I don't think I'd get banned, I'm pretty lefty and with zero interest in culture war stuff but I'm stubborn and perfectly happy here (though I wish Gaming had less "censorship/SJW/whatever" threads.. :p) . That said, I'm really jealous of their OTs - they get dozens and dozens of pages.

I was looking back through some of the old OTs (such as this one for the original Catherine) and, man, I miss that level of activity. It was great - people don't seem too keen on OTs anymore around here.
