This guy gets it. And well written too, so it'll be hard for mods to piss on his head or it'll look bad on them. Get into a pissing match and they'll shut you doww for disrespect or some other lame reason. But if you can nicely write it up, they cant. And due to the fact that entire thread is left open so people can vent (locking it would look bad), best way to make Reee look bad is write something well thought out.

They already have a plan. Ignore that it happened and drown it out in the noise of future pages.

Yes, I could read the telegraphing as soon as several mods came in at once and started back and forthing after ignoring the thread for the entire weekend, basically. I'd like to say the user base can't be so dense as to not notice the obvious ploy, but then again....I GOT A TAG! HOLY SHIT, I WANT TO FUCK ALL 3 AND A HALF FEET OF YOU, NEPENTHE, MY EBONY GODDESS, TAKE MY PRIVILEGE *AND* VIRGINITY PLZZZZ
 
Is it possible the mod team actually were promised a check by the end of this but aren’t allowed to disclose any details of the deal? Let’s pretend that fukui sold the website and all mods got pissed and leave, that would surely jeopardize the deal, right?

He's talking about the Resetera management team right?

More sad bullying from their "staff". It's both funny and sad that they don't realize how pathetic they look when they try to tough talk and browbeat on a discussion forum, while hiding behind mod powers, all while they know that their users know what huge losers they all are IRL. Heh. Man, what small, sad people they have running things at ree.

Man you see this reply?

Seik literally got fucked, they didn’t answer him, he got pissed rightfully. They didn’t give a satisfying answer and try to change the subject with tag bs.
After he was threatening to delete his OP’s he put work into they start literally talking shit that he was never part of the community?

Then Nepenthe says this shit:

That’s some bullshit right there. If wants to delete his OP and leave he should be able to do so.

A mod or other member should be able to write or replace the original OP with a new one, if they want to keep that discussion open.

To just say fuck you. No. When you remove your own content is downright bullshit. I’d be pissed if I was him. I know there’s not much that he could do about it, but that’s just a spit in the face.

Before I always thought the drama was straight up funny, but for some reason that one burns me the wrong way and I’m upset for the random person I don’t even know.

I can't really fathom why anyone would stay there after this whole debacle. Especially with the mods openly power tripping and vilifying their community. Does it seem like it's going to slowly blow over? I really want that cesspool to either go down in flames or take a significant hit to the userbase so that the megalomaniacs and their drones think twice before infecting other forums with that shit aggressive attitude. We've already been seeing social media sites, journos, and even game companies bend over backwards to appease those special snowflakes. Their little echo chamber got exposed, I just hope that it isn't all in vain. Real masochists over there.

Hecht is off to watch some furry porn. Time for people to start posting shit again.

Trying to turn it into a Mr. Roger's learning experience. Lead by example, dude. Don't derail a fucking thread with power tripping and off topic nonsense when you're the fucking moderation team and then look at the shit covered room, give a satisfied sigh and say to your housemates "Can't you just be like us?"

Literally the patients running the nuthouse.

Sounds like he a Nep are done for the night. The other mods barely show up and when they do they havent been big on defending the fort. Thos mod's posts are short and half the time has nothing to do with the topic. I havent seen big defender Royalan all day, although maybe he posted earlier today.

So for anyone there, you can basically have a free for all as you wont have these two defenders in your way.

WTF… Now i know that i am a racist… That place is a shitshow. I feel better now with the permaban.
Here’s the trick, if you go against what they say, you are racist.

It’s the easy pull card, because if anyone dares defend it or argue against it, it makes them racist as well.

It’s basically easy mode to making sure a member can be banned with as little pushback as possible, regardless of how progressive or not racist they are.

It reads more like "if we just fight the good fight, the new owners will see the value we provide and then we'll have the last laugh."

And in the end, it'll be the same at is is now-- not a single penny the site generated will go towards the (im)famous 7% auto loan.

Cerium found a staff that wanted "clout" more than they wanted compensation. Of course he was supportive behind the scenes-- he had a quite literally vested interest in their continued output.

Era was always viewed as an asset. Watch the timeline from web hosting to the LLC creation to the sale. Again, no surprise that the valuation was comparatively cheap. The misstep he made was holding on too long. Of course it went on for months-- their traffic rank is available for anyone to see. My bet is the for sale sign went up around the time of the new consoles launching. The traffic taking a dip then increases the sense of urgency and voila.
 
Wow they are ripping each other apart on that post. Hilarious actually. Entertaining honestly. Just hate that I'm giving them ad revenue. And the fact they have full page ads taking over my screen is disgusting.

So glad for Gaf.
Do browser add on's that block ads help with that? I'm using ABP and Ublock Origin.

Not sure honestly. I use my phone like 95% of time for websites and don't really mess with ad blockers on it. I work for ATT so probably should have some knowledge on that haha. I don't trust apps like that on android.
 
If there are any sane people left at that site, they really should leave for something better. As long as they are not like most users there, I see no reason why they should not return to the fold. We could be like AA for them, help them undo the brainwashing they have received.

What time is it?

I'd wager the vast majority of the userbase is sane. Those voices just get drown out by the insane vocal minority. A sense of community is a weird thing as you are willing to overlook a lot of nonsense to maintain the relationships you've foster over the years.

The people of Era are representative of the most spineless, placating, groveling, militantly patronizing creatures in the history of the planet. They thrive on debasing themselves and take pride in being able to out-self-flagellate each other. They are the quintessential, most demonstrative icon of self-destruction. They would cheer with glee at being decapitated as long as it was the right demographic sawing their heads off. They are the cancer of the white race; truly, abnormal and grotesque cells- the most disgusting of humanity, the waste of the Earth. They are more foul to me than a bowl of shit left unflushed for weeks. I am as ashamed of them as they probably are of themselves. It would be too generous to call them the appendix of a species, for they offer nothing but the plea of their own uselessness. I would say I pity them but humanity is a prerequisite and they don't qualify. They are in actuality the victims of mental disease, for which there is no cure. The world would be better without them

As a white person, it's almost as if you are not welcome there. Let that sink in.

Their mods can't even gaslight properly. Like, we can all read your posts and see through your antics. That K.Jack is a childish bitch, lol. I mean seriously, what a copping out trick. He lost that debate handidly so all he can do is a poor man's attempt at gaslighting and being like "We don't think like how we constantly act. Nana nana boo boo.".

I feel like some of you are overestimating how some of the over dramatic “eat the rich” types leaving Restera are going to cut into the half mil in easy profits the forum is generating for the new buyers. Especially since a media network can create more lucrative advertising deals so they can become more profitable with the same or less traffic.
