NeoGAF & ResetERA - The Hilarious N̶e̶v̶e̶r̶e̶n̶d̶i̶n̶g̶ Splintering "Gaming" Forum Circus

[Frank Rizzo]

I just *love* the mentality they have at GAF in terms of ban-able offenses:

Being a pedo and having fantasies about young kids? Meh, sure, why not, go crazy.

Using the term "u mad"? WHOA, WHOA WHOA, THAT FUCKING DOES IT, BANHAMMER, BITCHES!

In regards to neogaf, I remembering reading an article involving some drama over a figure of Quiet from the Phantom Pain. It has to do with neogaf in that the founder had this to say.

“As a closing commentary, Akihabara is easily the creepiest place on the planet. You probably really don’t want to buy figures catering to the otaku market segment for your own mental and social health. That being said, merchandising for anime/manga/gaming in Japan is so ridiculously depraved and targeted at pedophiles that it’s difficult to bat an eye whatsoever at this Quiet doll, which, despite any squishability, depicts a grown woman with human proportions that overall looks very much like the model in that photo of her holding it (which is neat), and not a 10 year old girl-creature in a maid outfit with ZZ cups and moe eyes as per the status quo.

Don’t buy otaku dolls and a big glass case to put them in. Thanks. ‘Til next time.”

While Japan does have weird things, some of it could be due to cultural differences. Even then, saying Akihabara is the creepiest place on the planet makes me want to say this: Does this mean places in Thailand or the Philippines that would have child prostitution are less creepy places just because they don't sells figures that cater to the otaku crowd? Really, by saying merchandise for anime/manga/gaming in Japan is deprived, I guess this makes image right here one a pedophile:

Spoiler: According to neogaf founder, owning this may as well make one a depraved pedophile. Perhaps robophile might be the better term.

How do you have both pedophiles and SJWs in the same site? How do you have a rapist run a site where SJWs make rules? I just don't get it.

dude, SJWs are fine with pedophilia and rape.
just to certain people.
for rape, only about 1/4 will make them scream and cry about how horrible the rest of it is.
f->f rape makes them get hot and talk about converting women to lesbianism and it being a good rape
f->m gets laughed at (even when it's like an 8 year old (they are pedophiles after all))
m->m makes them hot also, and then they go LOOK ALL MEN ARE RAPISTS

Okay the site is fat and I wouldn't have sex with it. Where's the lol?

"Ok, let me get my inner autist flowing.

There are plenty (international) developers who post on their very own forums/websites/blogs/developer chat-hour on some videogame based sites like Gamestar, Double Fine, Twitter, Reddit AMA, the European PS blog for instance and plenty more. There are also lots of sites like develop-online.net, gamesindustry.biz & gamasutra where only certified industry people post. Only developer/press people from the U.S. post on neogaf... and just the small-time annoying, attention seeking ones. Most game developers just don't care about mouthbreathers i.e. the average gaming enthusiast or how idiots like to call it, "Hardcore Gamer". They consider those enthusiast sites and people who post their (such as neogaf) as annoying manchildren; they roll their eyes when you mention neogaf to them. Because most developers/industry people are well-adjusted, really intelligent and reasonable people who actually know what they are doing/talking about, so they avoid those places like the pest.

Every gaming related thread on neogaf consists of, knee-jerk reactions, people who didn't read the op, 20/30-something year old people who act like overexcited 12 year olds over trivial videogame news or a new heavily scripted trailer, fake cynicism, fake outrage, pseudo insider who are most of the time wrong, pseudo technology talk worse than on beyond3d with people who act as if the really know what they talking about but can't even get the basics right - who are even more clueless about tablets/smartphones, display technology and other gadgets, hypersensitive SJW, an unhealthy amount of members with kpop/anime/pony avatars, animated gifs instead of real meaningful posts, bad jokes i.e. annoying juvenile hive mind memes like, "bomba, first post nails it, based cerny/bandera" etc. Offtopic consists of social retards & narcissistic gay/transsexual people who talk about the newest Hollywood gossip 24/7. I haven't checked neogaf in quite a while but I seriously doubt it has changed much.

...and when there is a real discussion going on it's about the most trivial shit no normal consumer should ever care about at all. Imagine a group of really boring people talking about Media Create, NPD sales numbers. People who don't own stocks or are in any way, shape or form involved in the videogame industry other than owning a mass produced entertainment product; the world's most boring people who care way too much about multi-billion dollar corporations and their cheap plastic toys. Granted, there are some alright members (always liked StuBurns) and some (very few) interesting discussions going on over there but guess what, even on sites like gamefaq's forums you can encounter them once in a while. You can find interesting debates on pretty much every forum no matter how bad the stigma & userbase is. It's not really different on neogaf, for every reasonable member there are 1000's of mind-boggling idiots like Wynnebeck (biggest manchild I've ever seen), Derrick01 (banned, feels good man, that guy was mentally ill & I'm not even joking). Everything that came out of their gobs was wrong. Everything.

People who keep posting how awesome neogaf is and the rest are just mad & salty (or whatever hive mind terminology/meme they use now) will change their mind when they are perma-banned. Don't worry, it will happen no matter what. No matter how strict the moderation is, geek forums will always be awful most of the time. You just can't punch the mouthbreather attitude out of them. Just avoid video game forums, especially the overly enthusiastic ones. It speaks volumes when you can find better discussions at places with almost no moderation like imageboards. If you must use small forums with a manageable userbase who know each other for discussions matters/eFriendship.

And yes, I was a neogaf member from 2006 til 2011 but had only like 200 posts (I think), how else would I know all this? But I rarely visited the site and posted there. I got banned because I talked bad about some mods favourite plastic toy. Well, I was actually just quoting a 2k Czech developer and what he said about the PS3 development and a mod got really, REALLY offended by it. Don't get me started on all the annoying weeaboos, extremist transsexuals and SJW on that site; their motto is, "Fight for women's rights by day, wank off to rape hentai porn by night." The most hypocritical & delusional people you will ever encounter. They treat their videogames like they treat their women, with unrealistic expectation and tears when they don't turn out like they wanted. Surely, every game should be Dark Souls and made by Platinum games with helpless kawaii underage girls, amiright?"

In regards to cryonics, the wife can have a point in that it could be a rip-off since there are scam artist out there. Even if cryonics work, that doesn't mean there wouldn't be without risk. Plus, what is his purpose in cryogenically preserving himself? Being a well-preserved mummy?

Like, shouldn't we be able to prove cryonics even work in the first place before slapping down a stack of Benjamins on something that might not actually work at all?

Ah yes, cryonics. The science that hopes, one day in the future, a cure for the diseases that killed people will be discovered. You know, like death.

There should be a better site than that. Most of the time feels like reading /pol/ rejects.

I mean the main risk is probably brain damage. But he's already a NeoGAF poster so I don't think that will be much of a worry.

well, we need people to test them on.
so if a bunch of rich people want to be the first to try it out, and being the first, end up fucked over. they can go ahead.

Ah yes, cryonics. The science that hopes, one day in the future, a cure for the diseases that killed people will be discovered. You know, like death.

yes, but can cryonics help being shot

okay, back on topic

I didn't realize NeoGAF was still around.
Guess they're about as relevant as Something Awful these days.

Grab your popcorn, as NeoGAF rages about a "rape scene" in the Game of Thrones episode.

If only there was some way of knowing a rape was coming, so they could have avoided being triggered by it. You know, like if it was adapted, from a series of novels or something, where all this stuff happened years ago.

The console warrior stuff seems typical to me. Nintendo fans posting salty and passive aggressive stuff while overhyping games, Sony and Microsft having legions of apologists and PC gamers usual elitism. Last week someone did a thread named "did the WIIU save this generation?" and was surprised when people acted sarcastic.

This is typical console warrior stuff. The real difference is the SJW, journos and indie developers get on in it.

Still, after that Tyler AMA in Kotaku it seems that forum staff has clear Sony bias. (Tyler sperg about Major Nelson 'offending' him last E3). Just is not as insidious as the SJW bitching and the staff overall conduct in anything (not only console stuff) in my opinion.
