I'm actually trying but... seems a whole lot of people in America who don't want to talk about the country they created is what I'm seeing.
I was 90/10 OT/Gaming this generation, I'll prob browse for meltdowns but what is worth checking every day without the news? I'll just... read the news.

By cashman Go To Postwhat confirmation did you get?People who know even more mods.
By deadlinezombie Go To PostAre banned accounts included in the GAF total member number? I'm seeing hundreds of bannings, but the total member number is going UP. Are they just mass approving new accounts? It was 194000 and change, now it's in the low 195sLore is trying to cash in. Of course he's mass approving accounts.
By Surface of Me Go To PostI really hope all the industry people and devs who interacted don't go back to it.
Look at what's happening in the article thread. No Dev is going to want to be involved with this.
Wonder what is gonna happen with GAF island that we paid for. What's PoE gonna do now?
By Too rich Go To PostPeople who know even more mods.Yeah there was confirmation much earlier in the thread, but yeah... That's when the mods abandoned ship.
By LilBiscuit Go To PostAnyone know where Jawmuncher or Finale Fireworker ended up ?This I need to know. Finale was a treasure.
By Surface of Me Go To PostI really hope all the industry people and devs who interacted don't go back to it.Trust me, gaf is dead. There's no going back from this. Up until tonight maybe a buyout could salvage it a divided and damaged brand. But now? Nope. Done.
By Surface of Me Go To PostI really hope all the industry people and devs who interacted don't go back to it.
I highly doubt they will.
By LilBiscuit Go To PostAnyone know where Jawmuncher or Finale Fireworker ended up ?Dunno about Jawmuncher aside from Twitter but FF is there as well feeling really lost. Might try to send him this way.
By Surface of Me Go To PostI really hope all the industry people and devs who interacted don't go back to it.There's no way this results in a less toxic, somehow better image for GAF. It already had a pretty bad reputation in the industry and people interacted with it because they had to. I think it'll be broken up and much worse for wear after this especially. Most ain't coming back.
By Surface of Me Go To PostI really hope all the industry people and devs who interacted don't go back to it.For big industry gaffers the site is over it isn't worth the chance of bad PR by having any employees interact with people on the site or repost thread links on social media. Dev side I'm not sure what will happen. there are tens of thousands of people in the game industry so while I like to imagine they will all quit I'm sure some will stay

Most likely, they're approving old banned users and a lot of of them are coming back. And thousands of accounts are probably from members who haven't posted in weeks, months or years and aren't even aware of what happened. Half of the threads on the site were from the Off Topic. As the weeks progress and members find out what happened, the site will suffer even more.
By Surface of Me Go To PostI really hope all the industry people and devs who interacted don't go back to it.
I seriously doubt any of them step foot back in that shitshow.
Well, maybe Schilling will. But no one else.

Well, there are no legal repercussions for not following through with a Kickstarter IIRC. They should rename it tbh.
By LilBiscuit Go To PostAnyone know where Jawmuncher or Finale Fireworker ended up ?
Jawmuncher appears to still be active on GAF, so take that however you will.

As far as a gaming community, what set GAF apart was the close interaction between the industry, so I hope you're correct
By PhoenixMilk Go To PostIs there any word on ResetERA? Seems like it's not up yet.Most recent update was about 4.5 hours ago saying they had servers up and working and would be testing the forums. No ETA on launch.
By Mr. Blue Sky Go To PostDunno about Jawmuncher aside from Twitter but FF is there as well feeling really lost. Might try to send him this way.Even after asking for a ban I never got one so if you want I can PM him to come here.
By Soul of Miyazaki Go To PostI bet Jawmuncher is starting a Dino Crisis forum, in the vein of gaf.Yeah I can see that somehow happening and it’d be nice if finale were to come over here
By TDLink Go To PostMost of the people killing themselves are those I never even heard of. Very few of the members I regularly interacted with I've seen account suiciding. Some I'm already still interacting with.
As an example, even with all this going on and things not stabilizing yet… the DBFZ thread there has had more posts in the last couple hours than the thread here all day.
Yeah, I just checked and that ain't true. And most of the new post are about them leaving and setting up a discord.
I'd like ti think Schattenjager got banned just because he's a cunt and it was an opportune time to do it.
By Joeytj Go To PostYeah, I just checked and that ain't true. And most of the new post are about them leaving and setting up a discord.Looking through the remaining community threads seems like most of them are planning their exits and posts are about respectige discords.
By Surface of Me Go To PostI really hope all the industry people and devs who interacted don't go back to it.Lol, those people left long ago
By Ogliarchenemy Go To PostLook at what's happening in the article thread. No Dev is going to want to be involved with this.a lot of people involved in industry news are actually new admins for ResetEra, right?

By cantaim Go To PostEven after asking for a ban I never got one so if you want I can PM him to come here.Go for it. That sort of thing gives me the jitters anyway :lol But if I must at some point I will gladly
Ha, someone made a thread about the FCC vote on net neutrality coming up and the first post is great:

By con-ca-te-nate Go To PostHey guys, so once Resetera is up, how are we gonna be able to join? Sorry for the dumb question…Through one of the discord channels, I believe.
By Labor Go To PostNahI mean, you don’t have to. I’ve met him in person. He comes off like straight scam artist.
And not doing that dance
And virtually most of the black activist community that’s has had dealings with him agrees.
But do you.
I just made a few posts in some of my gaming community threads for people to come here if they want, and that I'd be leaving Gaf. Will probably get banned, but it feels good. Hope some good peeps decide to come over.
Wow, just woke up, went to GAF to see if it's back, saw that the Off Topic area is gone, ckecked a few threads...it feels totally different and not like a place I want to return to. Well, guess that's it then. I'm not as sad as I expected to be, thanks for that EL.
By NimbusD Go To Posta lot of people involved in industry news are actually new admins for ResetEra, right?Sure they are. Sure they are.
Lol at this bump. Went over the head of the two other folks.

Not surprised to see intellectual lightweights like CPP_is_king ad Artom Heart Mother applaud the lack of political discussions. Must suck to be owned so hard every time you try to engage and are clearly outclassed.
Just saw a picture of a guy spreading his ass open in one of the threads... Yeah I didn't need to see that today. Not even sure why I'm browsing that forum.
They deleted my last post because it had images embeded from the 2012 incident, lol. Evilore is such a hypocrite!

Wasn't that CPP guy a Trump voter lol? Not too surprising.
By moop2000 Go To PostNot surprised to see intellectual lightweights like CPP_is_king ad Artom Heart Mother applaud the lack of political discussions. Must suck to be owned so hard every time you try to engage and are clearly outclassed.I'll give them credit that they actually knew where the lines were drawn and how not to get banned unlike all the other conservative posters who would just continually complain about the echo chamber while derailing threads.
But they're shit.
Recognizing some folks at the OpenCritic joint, it runs like garbage on my phone though. For now Slaent is fine, maybe ResetEra when it opens.
fuuuuck man I am so conflicted. If I just continue to post there normally I'm basically giving profit to a sexual harrasser. If the allegations are true at least, which seems to be the case just based on Evilores response to it all. But there's a tiny chance it might not be? But even on the off-chance he's not lying, the GGers are flooding Gaf now anyway, so do I even want to post there? But from that Waypoint article Evilore accused her of mental problems, which are just more not-definitively proven allegations on the table. Which adds to him being a scumbag, leading me to believe he is the asshole the victim claims he is?
Fuuuuuuuuck

I mean, regardless of whether this is true or not he's an ass, just look at his past history and his handling of people contradicting him.

sadly I got to see the same thing, I'm not going back there lurking anytime soon after this
