It's legitimately fucking disgusting that people on ERA thought he was doing this for attention. I can already see a lot of people that were clamoring for people to help him on that thread on their new one asking for people to get permabanned or banned for trashing him before. I pray they do. Shits fucked up.RIP.
27 pages of shitting on him for having mental health problems and making nasty memes at his expense, mod endorsed:
Internet celebrity Etika may be losing it again [WARNING: RACIST AND HOMOPHOBIC SLURS] (Update: hospitalized again; see threadmark/staff posts)
Etika is a popular internet personality and content creator / streamer who has a large following in the Nintendo and Smash Bros communities. He had a massive following on YouTube (700k subs I believe) but his account was deleted a few months back when he seemingly had a nervous breakdown and...www.resetera.com
No, I refuse to be called equals to a website that encourages cryptic death threats and other criminal activity.Fuck me guys our community is not morally superior than that of resetera, nor being "morally superior" is a worthy goal. What if Anita ends her life tomorrow, would we celebrate?
Just be human, live from experience, and be happy to be a part of whatever this is.
RIP
Folks realizing how messed up ERA is reminds me of this:It's crazy how I can legitimately despise people I've never met. I really shouldn't let them get to me. They're not worth it.
Making a mistake is bad, not owning up to it is worse. Pathetic place.Era just deleted the thread a mod made to mock him.
What pieces of shit.
Pretty sure i haven’t seen anybody here wishing any harm, self-inflicted or otherwise, on Anita. Era members and mods were actively hoping Etika would harm himself and are now scrambling to scrub the evidence. I’ve got no problem claiming moral superiority over those chodes.

Please don't harrass the harrassers - they have feelings too, ya know?
Really no one wanted to see Etika harm himself.
And then you have scumfucks like RockmanBN openly wishing that Etika would kill himself.
Since I have nothing better to do, I’ve decided to document the usernames of ResetEra users who openly shit on Etika in that April thread who also expressed fake sympathy on the Etika threads on ResetEra over these past two days.

This list is not comprehensive, I got 17 pages into the April thread, I’ll probably do the rest later.
It is one thing to kick a man while he’s down, Reset users do scummy shit like that all the time. But to turn arond when he’s dead and act like you always cared about him is some subhuman filth shit. There are some people who called him a piece of shit in the new thread saying “I can’t the believe people who lacked empathy for this man!” The exact same fucking people.
And then you have scumfucks like RockmanBN openly wishing that Etika would kill himself.
I know some people on this forum are also regulars on ResetEra. Not sure why you frequent that hellsite, but if you do, remember these names. These people have shown themselves to be two-faced, going with whatever opinion is popular at a given moment so they can feel like they’re a part of something. These are the same people that will proselytize to you about “toxic gamer culture”. They have revealed the man behind the curtain, showing their hypocrisy for all to see.
Remember their names.

Professor Beef was the mod with did that WIllie Don't Care pic too, and he deleted it. But whomever took a screen shot has it floating around for life.Since I have nothing better to do, I’ve decided to document the usernames of ResetEra users who openly shit on Etika in that April thread who also expressed fake sympathy on the Etika threads on ResetEra over these past two days.

That's what people do when they're found guilty of something. They hide every sort of evidence possible.And they've reopened it and swept their shit under the rug.

That’s the last I’ll say about Era and its denizens here.
NYPD on Twitter: "We regret to inform that Desmond Amofah aka Etika has been found deceased." (See guidelines before posting)
R.I.P. I was worried this would happen ever since the first hints. I have a feeling that the way people on the internet piled on to him after he made bad comments or mistakes may have contributed to this. So I hope people realize that anyone that made insensitive comments about him still have...www.resetera.com
I give it half n hour.Will see how long before this person gets banned and post removed
Holy fucking shit that's a mod. This image should be shared around everywhere.Resetera made a thread about it. Then this shit came out about a mod.
Now the thread is closed. They don't want to talk about how they can be POS but want to talk about everyone else who doesn't share their echo chamber opinions.
Not shocked by their behaviour. Typical.Someone posted let's talk about moderation on RetardEra and it was locked immediately lol https://www.resetera.com/threads/we-need-to-openly-talk-about-moderation.125550/
Highly disagree.You know.. Etika said alot of dumb things and made alot of mistakes. I am in no way defending Resetera but when your online and say those remarks or racist words he said even if playing around then the heat will come at you regardless of if you meant it or not. Now in no way does that warrant people calling for his death or to laugh at his suicide video. The ones who mocked him took it to far when all you have to do is just not follow the guy. I honestly started watching his vids through his Jojo Youtube vids and I instantly became a fan. I wont say I was a super fan but I honestly thought he was a nice guy just from judging his interactions with others and what others had to say about him.
When he started having his breakdown and said all those things on twitter I was angry but then I was like well shit what would push a guy to say those things when he seems to have everything going for him. I took a step back and was like damn. I feel sorry for this guy as I truly believe he had a mental illness/depression etc. I honestly felt sorry for the guy after that and I was rooting for him to just somehow get through this"phase" and be back and make more videos.
When I heard the news today I felt bad not for him only but for his friends and loved ones. I cant imagine the grief they must feel and I hope those that made fun of or mocked him at least see that they should not attack or belittle someone when they are at a low point in their lives and make an effort to become a better person (easier said than done I know).
RIP Etika you were a fun guy and its sad to see anyone take their own lives. I dont know if anyone could have helped at that point but damn. I am really at a loss of words at the moment and just wish the man and his loved one Peace, Forgiveness and Love.
Actually good thread opened by a member closed by mods. Also users trying to justify their shitty behavior by saying "That's the internet for you."Era has a real empathy problem.
I've started noticing it more and more often but the responses in the Etika thread made me acutely aware of the kind of people this website has. It's incredibly disappointing to see and leaves me questioning whether I should even stay here. Unfortunately this place is essentially the best of a...www.resetera.com
