Neogaf Evilore getting called out on Neogaf 301 - 400

  3. Neogaf Evilore getting called out on Neogaf
Holy crap guys stop the infighting. 

This isn't a gaf vs gfaqs war. People use both sites. Myself included. 

The biggest issue with all of this, is that GAF was a great source of information, news, and insider info for the gaming industry. I'm not talking about the stupid political off topic side of things. As a strictly gaming forum, losing neogaf is a very bad thing. I hope it comes back in some form, hopefully without shitty people at the helm.

Bottom line is this site is still the best place on the internet to talk about games. It's been that way since I made my first account here in 1999. The users here are smart enough not to let the SJW infestation start a slow rot. You'll get called out on bullshit SJW zealotry here. Because it's not honest discussion. It's social postering.

At the very least, the opportunity for honest discussion exists here. It rarely happens, but it can. That's something that couldn't be said about a heavily censored forum like GAF. Without discussion, there can be no understanding.


Honestly, the opportunity is all you need. Some of this language used about reprobates and gamergate is chillingly similar to institutional religious corruption once it's gone into a frenzy. The opportunity itself is good enough.

GAF hasn’t legitimately broken a story in ages. Everything comes from the chans or reddit now. The only insider they had left was frank O’Connor and all he did was post his shit political opinions. 

The good parts of GAF atrophied and rotted off years ago. Nothing of value was lost today.

It isn't. It's about terrible people being scattered over the web now that their stinky ship has become publicly stinky. I'm sure you're decent but look a few posts before yours and you'll understand.

Nothing of value is lost is 100% correct. This news still exist. The platform that new information goes to is zero sum. It is only breaking because it ends up somewhere first. It doesn't matter at all where that is. What does matter is that the information will now need to seek a new place to break first. A place that isn't a corrupt dumpster fire. Worrying about losing information that amalgamated to a corrupt site because it had the largest megaphone is not realistic. And with the amount of cross pollenation of information and how fast news spreads over the internet, it couldn't matter less.

Maybe everyone there pulled stories from other sites, but pound for pound I have never seen another site get as much gaming news on the front page as GAF. I don't use Chan because of its cesspool nature, and Reddit has always been a mess in my eyes full of memes and disjointed topics. Nothing beats a nice clean forum setup. We lost what feels like the last bastion of video game forums. (Gamefaqs might be it now, the largest at least) It was so nice to load up GAF and not have to see any pics, memes, or any extra junk and just get my gaming news in a simple to digest package.

Where do you suggest we go? I used to strictly use gfaqs , have sites like ign and GameSpot bookmarked, and had to get my info from numerous places. I've already asked for some sites, and I got some good answers like gematsu for example. But we all know they aren't going to hold a candle to getting literally every piece of gaming info in one place. GAF was a collection of so many users, that I was able to see every release, every review, every piece of media in one place. There's nothing else that exists that offers that. Right? And if there is, please direct me to it.

It was a good hub site for video game news. You could leave it open in a tab and come in to quickly check all the relevant big news. Surprisingly for a video game forum, it was good for non-gaming news as well.

Yup. A shame that people can't see that because they're still stuck in that culture war mindset or are just mad that GAF was strongly moderated. Tons of people just want a one stop shop for gaming news and don't care in the slightest about if people think it was too liberal or whatever. It was infinitely more accessible than Reddit or the Chans.

And frankly, I'm long tired of people butthurt about GAF for whatever reason using various other sites (including this one) as their angry box whenever GAF pisses them off. I've been looking at various smaller sites and there are so many salty GAF threads or sites. Anything to get people to knock that off.

So many places saying how unimportant GAF is yet so many of them just can't stop whining about GAF.

The reason is almost always the same. It's a cesspool of SJW philistines that you're intent on defending.


But who gives a crap? There's plenty of crap on the internet I can't stand but I don't make it a habit to go to some other random place just to regularly complain about it. It's like Twitter. Plenty of crap on Twitter I don't like but I'm not going to waste my time coming to NGG or elsewhere just to post a topic about it. SJW culture war junk is so pointless and 90% of my knowledge of it comes when some guy posts an angry thread about some person I never heard of because they're looking for positive reinforcement for their anger. Too much energy wasted on something so trivial.

Because PC culture is relevant and harmful to video games. There are still people who are unaware of its existence, or at least its prevalence and effects. The more it's talked about, the more people become aware and unwilling to allow it to exert any pressure on games.

If there were a movement that erodes literature, don't you think that people on a forum dedicated to books would be doing the art form they love, and by extension themselves, a favour by shining a light on the problem whenever possible?

You're saying that the existence of a convenient source of video game news should take priority over the good of video games as a whole.

It's a great thing if NeoGAF dies, even if that costs you a few more clicks to find out that Toad's fucking Daisy in the next Paper Mario.

It's almost like kaitouace is purposefully being willfully ignorant here.

As a recent example of SJW, such as the ones in Neogaf ruining everything, the fact that the box art for SMO was changed because SJW thought Mario with a sombero on was racist or cultural appropriation, is pretty ridiculous.

The ironry is kinda funny tbh.
A "progressive" forum with no freedom of speech and one-sided/biased viewpoint finally reveals its color.
Yet, when their reputation took a hit, there was a massive censorship at the top level to prevent it from spreading and then nuking the site out of fear that they can't sell Neogaf for millions afterward.

Honestly, I feel bad for EvilLore.
Sure, he is a millionaire. But now his asset doesn't worth that much anymore.
He can probably only sell the site in the low million now due to bad reputation. 
He should've sold the site a year ago during gamergate drama, but this #metoo drama just causes him a lot of money and dragging him through the mud.

This PC culture is toxic, ruining a good money making website.
Does it matter if the higher up is corrupted with sexism power play? 
People shouldn't make such a big deal about it.

I think a mistake that the average intelligent person made when it came to this PC/SJW thing is that we instinctively discounted it as so ridiculous as to not warrant any thought; that nobody beyond a fringe set of morally corrupt, extremely conformist, and/or braindead control freaks would actually see any merit in it. Turns out that we were wrong and it took solid root in some of the arts, i.e. film and games, and clearly in politics and in journalism, like a disease. 

I'm the furthest thing from an alarmist. Any time in my life that someone's asked me my opinion about some kind of bullshit scare, I've said something like "it's nothing". But this stuff is something that people need to know enough about; enough to at least be able to recognize it and reject it before PC/SJW/regression/witch hunting/censorship through coercion--whatever you wanna call it, just becomes the norm. Fascist popular movements have come in cycles throughout history, and as comparatively mild as it may seem, this one's ours.
yessssssssssssssssssss :D

its not surprising some people are defending an sjw forum run by a hypocritical sjw (who almost sexually assaulted a woman too), but fucking hell is it NICE to see so many of those racists, cucks, etc come the realization that neogaf isnt a "safe space", its a space run by the type of person they hate.

this is more exciting news than the mario odyssey leaks (which are awesome :D)

thanks homie

but to be fair, if you tag him as sjw, its not that bad and is more just "I bet he'll do a wall of text somehow excusing this and then posting *shrugs*" >_>
I still remember when I got banned for 3 months for literally saying "It's not okay to just call everyone racist and throw around the term whenever you'd like." And I went on to say that terms like racism and nazis are being sanitized because everyone is just using them as an insult for everything, rather than knowing what the terms actually fucking mean.

Literally people like this are the reason I do not label myself as a liberal anymore. I don't know if it was the internet or what, but liberals have become borderline psychotic in recent years. It is kind of creepy.

    I still remember when I got banned for 3 months for literally saying "It's not okay to just call everyone racist and throw around the term whenever you'd like." And I went on to say that terms like racism and nazis are being sanitized because everyone is just using them as an insult for everything, rather than knowing what the terms actually fucking mean.

    Literally people like this are the reason I do not label myself as a liberal anymore. I don't know if it was the internet or what, but liberals have become borderline psychotic in recent years. It is kind of creepy.

    No they do not know what it means and that's why it turned into the most toxic, hypocritical shithole that it was. The "New" forum isn't any better, of course, it's the same people who will label everyone with a differing opinion as "Nazi" or "Gamergater".

    I would love to read a behavioral psychologist's take on how they're capable of having those conflicting thoughts without realizing the contradictions. We have Exhibit A of Evilore and other NeoGAF admins publicly donating tons of money to the Democrat presidential nominee last year. And we have Exhibit B of NeoGAF being in the top 5 referral websites to 2016's Democrat nominee. And now we have Arthur Gies' hot take that NeoGAF never learned on social progressive politics. Like this is so easy even a child could connect the dots. Some people give them the easy way out by saying Arthur Gies and his lot are all in-character and trolls, but I don't know, we're here saying 1+1=2 and he's saying 1+1=5 and it always was 5. I think he retired from gaming journalism altogether but the dude can't walk away altogether and needs to embarrass himself at every opportunity.

    If this is the case this is fair. There was a genuine rift between gaming and off-topic, with off-topic being pretty progressive for a gaming internet community (with some exceptions), whereas gaming had a bunch of people with different political opinions (including a lot of social centrists and right wingers) despite being anti-GG, a lot of people were basically NGG-lite.

    Opiate stuck up for actual child molesters - not people who are pedophiles who fight against it, but actual pedophiles.

    He banned a female poster who was molested as a child because she bucked his narrative.

    Why would anyone defend child molestation?

    As an aside, why would beseda request that (specifically) teenage male rape victims email him their experiences?

    Amirox is the tip of the iceberg, tbh. Just too much weird sit with the mods there.

    And frankly, I'm long tired of people butthurt about GAF for whatever reason using various other sites (including this one) as their angry box whenever GAF pisses them off. I've been looking at various smaller sites and there are so many salty GAF threads or sites. Anything to get people to knock that off.

    So many places saying how unimportant GAF is yet so many of them just can't stop whining about GAF.

    The reason is almost always the same. It's a cesspool of SJW philistines that you're intent on defending.


    But who gives a crap? There's plenty of crap on the internet I can't stand but I don't make it a habit to go to some other random place just to regularly complain about it. It's like Twitter. Plenty of crap on Twitter I don't like but I'm not going to waste my time coming to NGG or elsewhere just to post a topic about it. SJW culture war junk is so pointless and 90% of my knowledge of it comes when some guy posts an angry thread about some person I never heard of because they're looking for positive reinforcement for their anger. Too much energy wasted on something so trivial.

    Because PC culture is relevant and harmful to video games. There are still people who are unaware of its existence, or at least its prevalence and effects. The more it's talked about, the more people become aware and unwilling to allow it to exert any pressure on games.

    If there were a movement that erodes literature, don't you think that people on a forum dedicated to books would be doing the art form they love, and by extension themselves, a favour by shining a light on the problem whenever possible?


    It's almost like kaitouace is purposefully being willfully ignorant here.

    As a recent example of SJW, such as the ones in Neogaf ruining everything, the fact that the box art for SMO was changed because SJW thought Mario with a sombero on was racist or cultural appropriation, is pretty ridiculous.


    This is proving my point. This was disproven multiple times yet people still try to spread this misinformation because of their culture war nonsense. Even MMP admitted it wasn't true.

    yeah like I said before, no matter how much negativity I have towards sjws, that Mario boxart isn't one of those things.

    theres been other Mario artwork and stuff that changed to add in "new" levels too. 

    if you want to shit on Nintendo for "giving in to sjws", the stuff like the censorship in TMS fits a bit better (covering up a girls arms, I think). This is just "ssh, we don't want you to know yet" stuff.

    Nah. The subject that apologizer opiate was talking about is preventing crime. Child exploitation units WANT to see a program setup where potential criminals with an interest in children can sign up to and undergo treatment before that interest can mutate into something more (be that viewing or partaking in an actual act). Key word being potential. Not predators who have actually acted on it.

    That is sound. You're preventing future innocent children from falling into those predators clutches. The problem with that opiate is he then said we should feel sympathy for nonces. Just no. Me wanting to see a program where thought nonces can be treated before they become active nonces does not require me to feel sorry for them. It's just a means to prevent children from seeing harm in the first place. No difference to taking preventative measures to stop a disease from spreading and hurting others. I don't feel sorry for the disease but am glad there is a program to stop it from spreading.

    He then went further and tried to make a sexual abuse victim feel bad because they called him out about feeling sorry for nonces.

    And yet you have the Tomodachi Life debacle where Nintendo got blasted by "SJWs" for not promoting a "gay agenda" and "removing" gay options from the game (which was just a glitch that would eventually break the game and had the ability to break the game of others that connected with that character). And Animal Crossing with people regularly frustrated that they can't pick different skin tones but still happy that you can crossdress.

    For every decision that pissed off one side, you've got another one you can find that generally pissed off the other side. Which further points out that they're just making business decisions and not much else regardless of which side loses it after they make one so they can use it for culture war ammo. The real truth is that in some instances, Nintendo isn't thinking of either side (Tomodachi Life is almost assuredly this and probably Animal Crossing as well).

    LMAO


    Yeah, what looks like to be the downfall of one of the biggest gaming websites is gaming news. Its funny that GameFAQs allows this discussion but the mods of 4chan's /v/ will ban you if you talk about it.

    can you people leave? you're the most annoying ones here. the topic it's been spuriously marked by several people here and the mods are very responsive with taking down troll topics or topics that otherwise violate TOS. this hasn't been removed because it's emphatically on topic.

    And yet you have the Tomodachi Life debacle where Nintendo got blasted by "SJWs" for not promoting a "gay agenda" and "removing" gay options from the game (which was just a glitch that would eventually break the game and had the ability to break the game of others that connected with that character). And Animal Crossing with people regularly frustrated that they can't pick different skin tones but still happy that you can crossdress.

    For every decision that pissed off one side, you've got another one you can find that generally pissed off the other side. Which further points out that they're just making business decisions and not much else regardless of which side loses it after they make one so they can use it for culture war ammo. The real truth is that in some instances, Nintendo isn't thinking of either side (Tomodachi Life is almost assuredly this and probably Animal Crossing as well).


    On one side, you have real fucking censorship that actually happened.

    On that Tomodachi Life story you got bullshit that got twisted as usual by the medias.

    What point are you even fucking making? Do you even read what you're writing? This is why people are pegging you as an SJW shill

    This thread is a real treat. "Oh, we poor SJWs are the real victims here! Don't pay any attention to how frequently our buddies turn out to be predators like this, just feel bad for us and let us keep spreading our harmful ideology!"

    The "fucking" point is that one day Nintendo makes a decision and people claim they're SJW shills. The next day they make another decision and they're disrespecting PoC, gay people, etc. AKA: both sides are just complaining about some concerted effort from the other to ruin things using the same company to try to prove their point which just shows how dumb the argument is in the first place.

    Remember the SJW backlash against Nintendo was so great that they literally had to apologize in the public sphere about it. I forget if it was Reggie or Bill Trinen that actually made a video explaining what was going on.

    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/nintendo-apologizes-after-same-sex-controversy-over-tomodachi-life-game/

    The point is that both sides regularly go apeshit for basically nothing or treat a decision as some attack on them. Which is the best way to make sure people tune out and not give a shit. And yes, companies will censor titles from time to time for various reasons and it sucks. That still doesn't make it some grand SJW conspiracy. 9 times out of 10 the "SJWs" have zero input in any localization changes yet every time there's even the slightest change it's all some secret culture war attack. Even with Fire Emblem Fates where despite having some legit gripes, many of the changes in that game were made so that the script didn't read like it was written by Microsoft Text-to-Speech.
