By RoyalJCC Go To PostPeople falling for it tells more about NeoGaf than you might think.
Pretty much, I was just following the link everyone else did about the 5PM announcement and read the other tweets. I'm guessing whoever first posted that twitter handle in here may be troll account user or at least linked to it.
By Pennywise Go To PostHe just deactivated everything for now.
I doubt deleted anything, well except for the topics aimed towards him :P
Or he's like, "These motherfuckers turned on me..... well to hell with em...
I've even met Obama! And I've shown amazing leadership!"
By Gaz_RB Go To PostOdds evilore tries to salvage GAF?I wouldn't be suprised if he just reactivated it and acted like nothing happened.
By TheMikado Go To PostHow is that anything different than what happened previously?No 503 error, the ads are back on and I bet he's deleting the angry topics while getting everything back to the status quo from before.
By ElBoxyBrown Go To Posthttp://assets.neogafllc.netdna-cdn.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?&f=3
It feels like walking into an abandoned shopping mall. Feels weird to see no activity.
Ads are still active (obviously)
If Evilore had literally said nothing and gone dark and kept the site up im sure it wouldnt have been the end and people would have forgotten, I dont use gaf because of him, I dont even know he exists 99% of the time, i also use adblock
By Dardan Sandiego Go To PostThis weird logic can be applied to anything but nobody questions that the people falling for Fake News are stupid.
We need to train our selves to question the source immediately for almost everything these days.

Yeah dude he should have just let there be a thread to discuss it in off topic and kept the site up.
He handled this in the worst way possible.
Troll account or not, if Besada is involved I question the whole reboot. Heās exactly the kind of mod that shouldnāt be involved if impartial discussion is what theyāre aiming for. His willful favoritism was exposed via the leaked PMs and he wore his personal politics on his sleeve despite being in a position of power.
Honestly, I would deliberately avoid threads on GAF he posted in. My political/societal leanings mirror his own, but I still felt as though I would need to walk on eggshells if I knew he was present.

By Gaz_RB Go To PostWho do I have to suck to get a refresh button at the bottom of the page around here?
I agree. Well, at least about the refresh button at the bottom of the page.
By Gaz_RB Go To PostOdds evilore tries to salvage GAF?
Free registrations, a big "fuck y'all sjw's" sub-logo, a safe space for 4chaners.
I can see it...
By Gaz_RB Go To PostOdds evilore tries to salvage GAF?If he opens it without a word or statement And no moderation, people are going to go Bashir insane and he'll have to shut it down again.
I think a minority team support approval process wouldn't be bad for the football thread. We need less United fans as they are loud, annoying and borderline animals. United fan approval should take at least 6 months.
By Dardan Sandiego Go To PostThis weird logic can be applied to anything but nobody questions that the people falling for Fake News are stupid.It's not a weird logic in any way. I fell for it because many times I've seen users there defending Anita on full force and shitting on others for not doing so.
Putting her on the forum moderation wouldn't be impossible to believe.
And that minority registration approval or whatever they called it is stupid, I give you that. But I've read so many extreme shit over the years on this minority subject that I wouldn't immediately dismiss they would actually do that.

It's better if everyone starts saving most of the OT's they like. Fast
It's fucking depressing going through that link. Feels like nuke town
My favourite theory is that GAF went down because of EviLoreās ego collapsing onto him because the woman accusing him called him semi-famous.
I think hes a piece of shit btw, but so far as I am aware hes not under investigation, hes not being charged, its not a police matter, so why would he give up the forum?
If any of the above is untrue let me know

Been really busy with life / work the last few days and missed the whole thing. Trying to catch up today by going through this thread but only up to page 40 as of now. Has there been any more recent developments?
I was a member since 09 I think and while not a particularly prolific poster I must have averaged at least an hour on GAF everyday during those years. I was pretty scary when I twitter searched āneogafā wondering why it had been down all day and seeing the gamergators dancing on itās grave, a harsh reminder of what a lot of places on the internet are like and that now I had no place to go. Gaf was pretty much my window into the wider world of entertainment, culture and current events. Iām glad to see a lot of farmilar names here, but I guess a lot of the community will disappear and remain fractured? I got linked to a now seemingly abandoned discord on twitter and saw this place mentioned, no doubt a lot of the members will land in other places or simply wonāt bother.
I never heard about the drama with EL until now but seems like heās pretty much got what was coming to him, just a shame so many communities are going down with him. This whole āme tooā thing has really woken me up to how naive I have been about shear scale and pervasiveness of sexual harassment problems in our society and has had me feeling really shitty about the world in general recently.
Seeing a lot of shit-talking and good riddance sentiments and while obviously the forum was not perfect and there were numerous issues it really did have a lot of good things going for it. Strict no bigotry policy and generally not standing for users personally insulting each other, and a huge user base of passionate people meaning you could always find people to talk about. That was really valuable to someone like me because hardly know anybody in real life who is genuinely passionate about games or watches the same niche TV shows as me, etc. I posted in the mental health thread occasionally a few years ago when I was depressed and didnāt know where to turn and there were some lovely people around willing to give advice. Sure there were a good number of assholes but there was also a ton of smart, funny people from all kinds of professions and from all over the world.
Iāll stick around on here and see how it goes, the design of this site is nice especially on mobile. Now back to reading this thread haha.

Well I'll be happy to own that L for being stupid as long as we're all acknowledging that it's not that far-fetched to think something like that could happen from that site.

Wat
It's as if they are attempting to draw the maximum amount of trolling.
I don't really like the forced diversity aspect, either. GAF was cool because it evolved that way, not because it was forced.
EDIT: Never mind, I fell for the troll.
By Gaz_RB Go To PostYeah dude he should have just let there be a thread to discuss it in off topic and kept the site up.
He handled this in the worst way possible.
Yeah, but then there would have been a thread exposing him for who he is. I dought he wants that.
The only way I can see him salvaging it is if he wipes the last day or so of pandemonium, gets a mod staff ready to hit the floor day 1, and when he finishes The Winds of Winter his statement, it should say heās no longer affiliated with the site and then publicly seppukuās his account. Even then, itāll be a while for 4chan to find something more entertaining to troll (maybe they can go back to photoshopping war widows Facebook posts), so the site will be a treacherous place for an extended period of time.
By RoyalJCC Go To PostWhat did PewDiePie and Jon Tron do?PewDiePie is racist.
JonTron is also racist... but like, in scary eugenics Nazi type racism that's very deep rooted.
By RoyalJCC Go To PostWhat did PewDiePie and Jon Tron do?
pew said nigger out loud a couple of times on live streams, whereas jontron went on some massive white supremacy tirade despite being Iranian.
it's obviously not as basic as i'm typing, but googling them should bring you more depth of answers.

Just sounds like confirmation bias and an inability to take an L with grace on your part.
Itās fine, nobody is trying to crucify you.
By ElBoxyBrown Go To PostI like this. Let him keep talking out his ass.he caters to an specific audience. He tries to hide his true colors with the both sides bullshit

No I meant I assumed they would stop some of the practices such as deleting the topics to end conversation about himself.
By RoyalJCC Go To PostWhat did PewDiePie and Jon Tron do?
What's "snowflaky" about what I said? I don't get it.
PDP died in PUBG or some shit and decided that when he dies and thinks it's his teammate's fault he gets to call them a nigger.
Oh, and Jon Tron's all for a white ethnostate.
By RoyalJCC Go To PostWhat did PewDiePie and Jon Tron do?PDP said "nigger" multiple times and paid two guys to write "Kill all Jews" and laugh and dance at the same time.
Jontron said racist shit.
