I'm not sure about it but I think "racism" is something you're born with, a sin the Devil sticked on you from birth, maybe as a sort of punishment for some evil deeds his parents did before he born. At this point only the Fear of God™ can help him, so I really, really hope he took him to some Exorcist to have the job done!!!

Pleas tell me this is a troll.

Otherwise you’re an absolute fucking loonbox, lad.

Lol they have a new Jim Sterling thread, one guy calls Jim "guy" and there comes 10 posts saying he misgendered Jim and asking for the dudes head
Worthy of a "staff announcement" already but there isn't fucking one on the whole new ownership thread and that's been running for 10+ days.

Current members is at 54,503. The latest member is number 104376. We are very close to 50k banned milestone!
If true, that's even more sad than previously thought.

I actually kind of wish vBulletin had real time updating like that, assuming it's true. I use vB for my site and I have to manually run the rebuild statistics function if we want an accurate showing of registered users. Would love to switch to XenForo if they had any sort of a competent CMS solution.

It was obviously a joke and parody over the original source, I'm surprised I even have to state it. Are you from Era perhaps? If yes, I'll pray for you too tonight. 🙏

Pray for my eyesight that didn’t see the giveaway ‘tm’ on my iPhone screen…

The dude also intimated that Sterling - a grossly overweight human being, with a long history of being a victim of physical abuse, who routinely rants incoherently about non gaming stuff on his gaming YouTube channel - might be suffering from mental illness… and he gets jumped on for that too.

Sterling is very much suffering from a degree of mental illness, and it’s incredibly depressing that the poor sod is clearly not being helped by anyone.

Looks like the lure of that topic has caught up with the mods, time for more cope and propaganda to be spread.

More of the "last bastion of moral integrity," speech. I know they like being a minority, but the numbers seem funky to me. Either 75% of the gaming populace are actual, legitimate hood wearing Klan members (they're not) or Era has it's collective asshole tightened a bit too much. You don't know where the stagnation comes from? Lay off the sauce and realize you've just answered your own question with your borderline totalitarian ToS and moderation techniques. Of course it's stagnant because you're "left leaning," You just admitted to having an echo chamber forum despite denying it until you're blue in the jaundiced face beforehand.

75%? Left "leaning?"

Sure, there are a lot of shitters out there, but 75%? I'll take "Stats pulled from my ass for $1,000, Alex."

The only thing remotely close to hitting the nail on the head is when he said that moderation directions discussion. Omit the "somewhat" and he nailed it. He's so, so close to getting it yet still came up short.

Left leaning? More like left extremism.

To be fair, indication of some mental issues were pretty much always there, podtoid with Sterling was wild and not only in a good sense...

He's right about the 75% thing - the only thing he forgot were the footnotes:

1: 'Left-leaning' only refers to social politics, not economic. Economically, Resetera is a squarely centrist space that rarely if ever gives room to major left-leaning economic issues such as globalisation, competition or the environment.
2: 'Left-leaning' cannot include, by definition, anyone who disagrees with the general moderation of this site or attempts to offer competing or contrasting opinions on any issue designated by the moderation team as 'sensitive'. For the purposes of moderation, all contrary opinions on 'sensitive' issues are defined as 'alt-right' or 'trolling'.

To whit: I'm a tree-hugging, vegan socialist and I would last about five seconds speaking my mind on Era.

Yep. Gaming is still largely a hobby of the young (though we're getting older). Most younger people leaned left in 2014. Most people they've been banning and terrorizing with accusations of being an -ict or an -ism were on the left. Most people defecting/nuked from GAF back in the original Gamergate perge were on the left. Most everyone they're banning at ERA is on the left.

They're just that psycho. And as predicted since 2012 when all this SJW stuff started on Kotaku and spread, constantly demonizing people like they have just pushed a whole generation of young people to the right that otherwise may not have ever even considered it.

But of course, he thinks 75% of gamers are conservatives to just cover up his complete incompetence and extremism in banning overwhelmingly left leaning people from his forum for not being devout religious zealots.
