Victims remaining "Friends" with their abusers is extremely common. It's not any kind of evidence that their abuse is fake.
By eseqko Go To PostWhy are Slaent mods letting people organize a whole new competitor on here?
just to get them out asap again
nah, I keed
By Diego! Go To PostThere really is massive opportunity for some cunt to make a shitload of money filling in the gap neogaf just leftI don't like money and how dare you call me a cunt
By eseqko Go To PostWhy are Slaent mods letting people organize a whole new competitor on here?Because facist erase and censor competition. This isnโt a facist forum.
By RoyalJCC Go To PostJason leading the new forum would be really well thought. People were talking about the new one reaching Gaf's importance but with Jason leading it would happen in a blink of an eye.
He probably has the staff and the right mind to do it too. Easily for people to follow
By giririsss Go To PostBecause we normally don't really care. We want people to be here because they want to be here. Not because there's no alternative.You guys are cool, thanks for putting up with us.
(Also, putting up a really good forum takes more time than people think).
We're going to tighten it up though, particularly donation begging, gofundme's and kickstarters. They're going to have to get mod approval.
By TheMikado Go To PostBecause facist erase and censor competition. This isnโt a facist forum.Did you lose a bet where you need to use the word fascist in every post or something lol
By reilo Go To PostI don't like money and how dare you call me a cuntYeah. You're more of a jerk.
By ned_ballad Go To PostConsidering the ages of most people on GAF, seems like emails would be a bunch of dead college emails. That's what mine was.Lol, yup.
Seriously thinking I might buy a domain and run a email server temporarily from my PC if needs be.

oh you havent been here long enough m8
just wait until you meet
facism
By n8 dogg Go To Posti know you probably hear this every daymoris plays a good hanzo too
but I'm your biggest fan
i even got the underground shit that you did with slaent
i got a room full of your posters and your pictures, man
i like the shit you did with moris too, that shit was phat
By eseqko Go To PostWhy are Slaent mods letting people organize a whole new competitor on here?Glad you brought this up.
We can't tell people that they have a new home and should just stay here and all that. So if you want to fund another forum that's cool but just have enough respect to not do it on our dime.
Also any gofundme / kickstarter type projects must be mod approved and will be subject to getting deleted and bannings
Thanks.
By reilo Go To PostDid you lose a bet where you need to use the word fascist in every post or something lolHe said facist, like a person who is prejudiced against faces.
By eseqko Go To PostWhy are Slaent mods letting people organize a whole new competitor on here?Doesn't seem like they view it as competition.
By Enter The Noid Go To PostHe said facist, like a person who is prejudiced against faces.Wouldn't that be a faceist?
By giririsss Go To PostBecause we normally don't really care. We want people to be here because they want to be here. Not because there's no alternative.Does slaent have a patreon or something? Wouldnt be a bad idea if you get a ton of new blood and need to upgrade servers and whatnot.

By Violet_0 Go To Postjust to get them out asap againNo it's cool. This is like being at a friend's house for the first time. All the furniture is different (newer) and everything smells really weird.
nah, I keed
By Jay Whatever Go To PostIt doesn't seem like they view it as competition.
no one is scared of geonaf
By viciousds Go To PostHe probably has the staff and the right mind to do it too. Easily for people to followExactly. Good idea.
By NovemberMagnus Go To PostYou guys are cool, thanks for putting up with us.
Seriously, just being able to see familiar faces is nice. I also had no idea how bad NBA-GAF got it back in the day, I knew there was a schism at one point but golly.
By Moris Go To PostWe're not tripping on any of that, folks are just trying to find their e-homies right now. Like we said before, this thread has more wiggle room than the forum typical does due to these extreme circumstances.Your kindness is very much appreciated. Quality folk over here running this place.
It's sickening watching cunts like Boogie2988 get all giddy about GAF going down. As if he hasn't been an enabler to basically every online mysoginist, racist and harasser for years.
By Diego! Go To PostThere really is massive opportunity for some cunt to make a shitload of money filling in the gap neogaf just left
I volunteer to be the rich forum owning cunt.

I only joined in NBA GAF the season cleveland came back and won in 7 against golden state to watch Bam to go into hiding until the Kevin Durant signing
was it really that bad before that?
By eseqko Go To PostWhy are Slaent mods letting people organize a whole new competitor on here?
they aren't insecure. it isn't that deep, especially at a time like this where entire communities need platforms to rebuild around.
By Enter The Noid Go To PostHe said facist, like a person who is prejudiced against faces.
So reading the posts here, I came because someone recommended it on twitter, but whats the story of this forum? Was founded by ex-gaffers? Or why do some people mention NBA-gaf? Also about what hatefootball said, even if EL was to continue gaf through funding, new mods, etc. I sure as hell wouldn't return ever if he is involved. Sell the brand and maybe.
By Jay Whatever Go To PostDo they view it as competition?Nah. Also, its not a competition anyways.
The thing is, a lot of this crowdfunding stuff, donations, and general "we'll save your account" stuff WREAKS of scammery or at the very least opportunistic compulsions. I know that a ton of communities took a big hit and people want to help out as best as they can, but you still gotta play these things safe.

By Feorax Go To PostIt's sickening watching cunts like Boogie2988 get all giddy about GAF going down. As if he hasn't been an enabler to basically every online mysoginist, racist and harasser for years.I saw a guy named Boogie over in the bore, I think he was an admin? Anyone know if it's the same Boogie?
By NexusCell Go To PostI feel like the huge emphasis placed on banning, even if it was temporary, lead to GAF's reputation as a far left bubble, even if it wasn't true. I know a lot of forums with similiar rules to GAF, but they don't ban people outright for breaking rules. You given warnings, infraction points, prevented from posting in the same thread for a day or two. All smaller punishments that don't carry the outright severity of a ban. Given how much some Gaffers loved to anticipate a ban graveyard when a mod come in to comment, it contributed to the bubble status.
Modbot was the worst thing to happen to the forum. I know why it was introduced but it was abused so quickly. Mods should have had to stand behind their bans, not hide behind a bot and ban people for the dumbest reasons. I don't even know who the good mods were (if there were some) because so many hid behind that thing.
By Deadbeat Go To PostDoes slaent have a patreon or something? Wouldnt be a bad idea if you get a ton of new blood and need to upgrade servers and whatnot.Slaents entirely funded by the original founders.
We appreciate the offers, but we're good :D
By Flaurehn Go To PostSo reading the posts here, I came because someone recommended it on twitter, but whats the story of this forum? Was founded by ex-gaffers? Or why do some people mention NBA-gaf? Also about what hatefootball said, even if EL was to continue gaf through funding, new mods, etc. I sure as hell wouldn't return ever if he is involved. Sell the brand and maybe.The gist is NBA GAF got exiled and our thread was locked for months along with members being banned. Even when the thread came back we were under a constant surveillance. So we had enough and luckily 2 members Reilo and Sharp are programmers so they built this site from scratch.
By Audioboxer Go To PostBy the way has anyone actually spoke to any ex-mods or has everyone just gone silent?
The are on the bore if you can tolerate it. I say it's worth it because it's juicy.
Saying yes later, doesn't change that he was trying to take yes before.
Still an easy leave for me.
I'm not innocent. When I was 15 I whipped it out on an ex to get a blowjob, with nothing but flirtation to lead me to think she wanted that. I don't make excuses for it. It was a shitheel move. Predatory. She declined and I sulked.
I could have been that kind of creeper. But thankfully I took a Women's studies class in college. Changed my outlook on a few of my prior actions. But that was 19 fucking years ago. I was a socially inept mildly autistic kid with little but porn to give me context on sex.
So yeah. Easy for me to say "Fuck off Evilore." It's not acceptable for kids to act like that, sure as fuck not acceptable for an adult to act like that.

As a designer, gotta say, this is a sharp lookin' site.
Kudos

By n8 dogg Go To Postoh you havent been here long enough m8Hi

facism
Though saying "I was a socially inept mildly autistic kid" could be seen as an excuse. It's not. I should have known better. I didn't like it when a teen whipped his out on me when I was eight, why would I think she'd like it when I did it?

By Anubis Go To PostSo what's with all these bigs, some of them who would normally start on other teams being ostracized by their coaches?Think you want the NBA thread, friend.
Dieng
Randle
Len/Chris (about to change now?)
Willy H
Skal should be starting for the Kings
Collins should be getting more burn for the Hawks
etc.

It was around before the GAF influx and will be around after. The owner isn't making money off this. Hopefully some cool people see value and stick around
By Too rich Go To PostThe are on the bore if you can tolerate it. I say it's worth it because it's juicy.
I followed that topic for a bit when it was getting spammed everywhere but it was pretty crazy. I can't really remember seeing any mod names. Just wondering if anyone has given any extra comment?

definitely not the same, the bore one is awesome
