By Hypron Go To PostHow does one go about getting vetted? I wasn't part of any major communities but my gaf account is still up.yeah, same here - But i'm positive there'd be some non-discord non-community vetting, maybe as a second phase. I'm quite sure there's many posters like us that have been active 'free floaters' throughout the entire place
By erlim Go To PostHow do you go about contacting people on discord?
By Hypron Go To PostHow does one go about getting vetted? I wasn't part of any major communities but my gaf account is still up.
I sadly don't have the answer to either of these questions. If you were part of a community my best advice would be to find someone on here who was also part of that community and ask them for a Discord link.
If you were not part of a community, then you will have to wait for your account to be manually allowed through once the site goes live.
The vetting process is just to allow a huge chunk of users in when the site goes live. I'm told that in the first month that the admins/mods will be very active in letting people through so in most cases you won't have to wait for a few months. They are currently hoping to get most people who signed up on the first day into the site by the end of the weekend.
ResetERA should go with Facebook/Twitter authorization to join. I do have access to a paid/college email account so I'd be fine I guess, but at least here in Brazil it's almost impossible to get access to a paid email anymore. The biggest ISP don't give you an email account anymore. But oh well.
By TemplaerDude Go To PostThe amount of people giving ELs actions the big ol' thumbs up is what is getting me. "She left the door open! No invasion of privacy there!" Like fuck right off.He was just shooting his shot bruh.
Just shoot your shot
By TheBronxMan Go To PostI'd love an invite for GAF-Hop Discord if anyone made in into thereHonestly, just use slaent-hop.
By ElyrionX Go To PostUmmm so what if she had a boyfriend?Wait. Seriously?
By TemplaerDude Go To PostThe amount of people giving ELs actions the big ol' thumbs up is what is getting me. "She left the door open! No invasion of privacy there!" Like fuck right off.People will reason themselves into defending/forgiving someone if they like the person or the content they produce. The content in this case being a video game forum.
I did this with JonTron years ago.
By Ukumio Go To PostIf you were not part of a community, then you will have to wait for your account to be manually allowed through once the site goes live.
i wonder if the signup process will be a bit more robust beyond just "this is my email and my username".
Like, being able to provide additional information (hi, this is me, this was my GAF account) to expedite manual verification would really be appreciated.
I'm thoroughly disappointed in so many people who I thought were decent folk. How the fuck can these cunts talk about social progression and contribute to discussions about making things more inclusive, only to show their dirty asses when the time comes to stand up for those values they claimed to believe in.
Goddamn. Bunch of cunts.
Goddamn. Bunch of cunts.
By Ukumio Go To PostThe process is currently that individual communities are vetting their own members, so I'd try to join any Discords for communities you were active in. If you weren't that active in a community then I don't actually know what's happening.Nice; probably a good idea to play it safe for now given that the knives are out from GooberGaters. So, is there a Discord for GAF users? I searched discord.me for GAF and NeoGAF and couldn't find anything.
By Frozenprince Go To PostShit just makes me sad.Hey, we aren't reduced to ANYTHING. Gaf was just a domain site. The community, THE REAL community is alive and well. We will find a way to get the whole band back together again. Sl&nt and ResetERA are a start.
We had 10 lettersGAF OT's, TransGAF OT's, the BCT. Shit it was the only notable social platform on the internet I've EVER seen where trans individuals aren't just immediately beaten down.
And this is what we're reduced too.
Just sad.
Uff, now you need to be vetted to get into ResetERA? I usually just posted everywhere back on gaf and wasn't really plugged into any communities. Don't use discord, either.
Guess I'll be lost a little while longer. If nothing else I assume I can at least lurk resetera.

By Jotakori Go To PostI think I've heard some mention of steamGAF in relation to ResetERA, so there might be a few at least. No idea about details cuz I'm not involved in that community, but couldn't hurt for you to try and reach out to some of them.Yeah if I find the discord link, I'll try to. So far I like it here on Slaent though.
----
What's even worse than the "GAF is back" crowd.
Is the "everyone made mistakes" people. Yeah, everyone make mistakes, but when you shut down your website, disappeared for 3 days and come back and basically play the "nah, she's lying son. Bitch shady af. But off-topics is the real problem here" card. That's why people have a problem.
By uncelestial Go To PostNice; probably a good idea to play it safe for now given that the knives are out from GooberGaters. So, is there a Discord for GAF users? I searched discord.me for GAF and NeoGAF and couldn't find anything.There was. They modified it to the ResetEra server yesterday. Not sure how to get a link now, I was early and lucky.
I. I'm cynical as fuck but this shit is taking me by surprise. How the fuck do you fake shit for years. Goddamn years. What the fuck is wrong with some people man.
By Miles Q Go To PostI. I'm cynical as fuck but this shit is taking me by surprise. How the fuck do you fake shit for years. Goddamn years. What the fuck is wrong with some people man.Did you hear about commidieu?
By Danielsan Go To PostI guess some here find it weak or disgusting, but for now I'm not going to burn any bridges. The entire situation has been handled incredibly poorly, Tyler's statement has been anything but great either, however if by some miracle the community manages to pick up the pieces, heal and improve then I'm not opposed to visiting and posting on GAF. I never cared for Tyler's attitude, and my views of him have certainly not become more favorable. In the end I was there for the news/content and the amazingly helpful and kind people that made that community what it was. If that part of it lives on, then it still retains value. If it's lost then I hope a healthy and better alternative grows from its ashes. In the mean time I will look around and try to maintain a presence in other communities. Slaent looks like a good one thus far. Hopefully it will flourish.You do you man, and disgusting isn't a word I would use but this really just sounds like you're happy to let this blow over so you don't get tainted like the folks hoping right back in.

Okay, sounds good. I had like 12k posts so surely at least someone will recognise me haha.

Is there a dating discord? Anyone hook a brother up?

I searched discord.me for GAF and NeoGAF and couldn't find anything.The ResetEra discord is not doing vetting, only individual communities. For example I'm in HaloGAF (actually HaloERA now) and they are vetting users.
Honestly, I expected a much more dramatic heel turn than what I saw tonight. Still ugly to witness your suspicions bear out, but it wasn't as potent as I feared.
Evilore will batten the hatches and hope this all blows over.

I've joined one discord group for the Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite thread today. I'm going to sleep now but I'll talk with people there how to proceed getting people to join later tonight.
By ElyrionX Go To PostUmmm so what if she had a boyfriend?
Going on a road trip, is not consent.
Sharing a hotel room, is not consent.
Drinking together, is not consent.
Throwing up in the toilet, is not consent.
Showering after you've been throwing up, is not consent.
There's nothing there that even remotely suggest consent. When you add in that he knew she was in a committed relationship, and knew the boyfriend....
The absolute best spin he can put on it is, he was blackout drunk, completely regrets it, has apologised, and tried to grow, while showing remorse.
By Not Go To PostDid you hear about commidieu?
Yeah. I'm not going to claim I knew or felt he wasn't legit. Dude had me convinced.
How fucked up does someone have to be to even think that shit up. Jesus Christ.
By Hypron Go To Postlol
What was up with that guy anyway? Was he just trolling the entire time or does he just happen to have the worst opinion about everything lol?
Hard to tell what the deal was.
But he did come back and unironically lambast and moralize to posters with red herrings about not showing action toward the victimized women of our world while he himself was egregiously ignoring the shit storm stemming from elf mans shower creeping and victim blaming.
Hard to tell if he’s a troll that’s bought too much in, Is in it for the endorphin rush like a talk-radio addict and just using social justice as his cover, or he is someone that has a good heart but is really shitty at applying it.
By Miles Q Go To PostI. I'm cynical as fuck but this shit is taking me by surprise. How the fuck do you fake shit for years. Goddamn years. What the fuck is wrong with some people man.see Amir0x
anyway, give us some juicy names!
Man if Reset Era really doesn't allow Gmail even for migrating users guess I'm out. Not currently in school and not the name on the internet bill for my current residence.
By TemplaerDude Go To Posthttp://m.neogaf.com/showpost.php?p=252781138Disgusting! I don't understand how someone can be like that.
Man, I'm going to bed.
By Ukumio Go To PostThe ResetEra discord is not doing vetting, only individual communities. For example I'm in HaloGAF (actually HaloERA now) and they are vetting users.yeah, same for the MtG Community, which is going through a list of the more active or well-known posters. It's kind of like Pokemon, gotta catch em all ^^
By TemplaerDude Go To Posthttp://m.neogaf.com/showpost.php?p=252781138Me too.
Man, I'm going to bed.
So psyched about this place.
You know what's one of the biggest bummers of this whole thing, is losing all those people whose posts I really enjoyed reading but never engaged with, and have no idea where they're gonna wind up. :/
By Miles Q Go To PostI. I'm cynical as fuck but this shit is taking me by surprise. How the fuck do you fake shit for years. Goddamn years. What the fuck is wrong with some people man.It's easy to pretend to be progressive when no one is putting your feet to the fire and testing you. When push comes to shove, that's when you see peoples true colors.
By Miles Q Go To PostI'm thoroughly disappointed in so many people who I thought were decent folk. How the fuck can these cunts talk about social progression and contribute to discussions about making things more inclusive, only to show their dirty asses when the time comes to stand up for those values they claimed to believe in.Hard to stand up with no spine. Seriously the carnival of sycophants and enablers that is left on GAF is vomit inducing.
Goddamn. Bunch of cunts.
By Wazzy Go To Posthttp://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1453816Whatever this was. It has to be pretty bad (awesome) if it was deleted.
LOL
By Not Go To PostNah, Discord says it's a "necessary evil." :/
would an isp email be enough?
By Shadownet Go To PostWhatever this was. It has to be pretty bad (awesome) if it was deleted.The thread title was "Pour one out for NeoGAF" and it was just a large image of a shower running. Posted by JohnDoe lol
By Surface of Me Go To PostMan if Reset Era really doesn't allow Gmail even for migrating users guess I'm out. Not currently in school and not the name on the internet bill for my current residence.It is what apparently kept NeoGAF "pure" because it kept the "trash" out yet look where it is now. Imploding on itself because it moderated too heavy, and labelled anything against anyone's opinion as hate speech or anti whatever.
Also, how the fuck is Blizzard still not banned. Dude has straight up Bowser/Peach porn and no one giving a shit? Maybe they are hoping to keep the older accounts alive in hopes they stay?
By BobsonSla Go To PostSo how do you actually find resetera to sign up?It looks like the sub community discords are vetting people and they will give you an invite when the site goes up.
Details aren't really clear tho.
By Shadownet Go To PostWhatever this was. It has to be pretty bad (awesome) if it was deleted.
Deleted mine and I did was call him a fat lad and hoped he’d invested well lol
By Fliesen Go To PostThe _best_ part of that whole post.where can i read this post?
By Eorl Go To PostIt is what apparently kept NeoGAF "pure" because it kept the "trash" out yet look where it is now. Imploding on itself because it moderated too heavy, and labelled anything against anyone's opinion as hate speech or anti whatever.
ehhh that's not what happened
By Hypron Go To PostWho even gets horny seeing a girl throw up in the shower in the first place, wtf?Sexual predators who see an opportunity.
By Hypron Go To Postehhh that's not what happenedObviously the implications of a rampant sexual predator owning the site and a mod who was arrested for child pornography don't help, but what I'm trying to state is that NeoGAF's descent into madness was helped in part by the echo chamber nature it turned into. Hell, my first account on GAF was banned because I stated that the Xbox One's initial digital library method and trading actually sounding interesting. I got banned for that.
