Those besada tweets are hilarious  :lol dude is like 50 and is sending insults to politicians over the internet. This dude is still a forum moderator after this?

And his tweets read like youtube comments   :doge

He's still a moderator after literally having his corrupt ways exposed

Only way he's getting removed at this point is being caught with CP or worse, talking back to Evilore  :doge

I mean...  :doge

There are so many threads in neogaf, pages upon pages of people rightfully condemning internet bullying, toxic behaviors, twitter wars.

No matter what side or opinions, its just terrible to participate in this. It brings nothing to the table. It’s just negative.

Neogaf prides itself as a place that is free of this kind of attitude.. but there you have the most active mod doing the same thing on Twitter.

343 Rescinds Job Offer to Halo Community Member Over Forum Post

Quote
A reminder to everyone to be civil in their criticism. "No one at 343 deserves their job" is an awful thing to say; unfortunate for him, but understandable on 343's part.

You know what else is pretty awful? Releasing a completely broken game a few weeks before Christmas to capitalize on a black friday sale, and in the process, fucking over hundreds of thousands of people.

The post in question:



Fucking no lies detected. Company should have been sued out of existance after the MCC debacle. But muh multi-million dollar corporation backed by muh mulit-billion dollar corporation.

I'm pretty sure HR saw it. And even if they didn't, it's a pretty dick move to go "oh, btw, you're not hired after all lol" when the person is in the process of moving. At least pull them aside go "yo, your shit isn't accepted here. Delete that or be fired." and wait for them to fuck up somewhere else.

That said, if FyreWulf is right: Into the bushes with this dude, and there's no reason 343 couldn't have found that AFAIK if they're all up in the community.

There's a difference between posting negative commentary and being an asshole. Saying, "I think X did a bad job and I think they could improve it by Y" is fine. "X is fucking moron and they should all be fired," is not fine.

Part of the problem is you have a generation of people who grew up somehow believing they could say any repugnant thing they wanted online without ever being challenged. Someone changes your sniper rifle? Threaten to kill their children! Someone makes a game you don't like? Threaten to rape them!

That sort of behavior is unacceptable here and any other place with even minimal standards, much less a place of employment where they have no problem finding less obnoxious replacements.
Not only does besada regularly openly insult people, (he literally called me a "complete fucking moron" a couple hours ago :lol ,)  but saying that 343, the company that purposefully hired a staff that was disintrerested/hated the sole franchise they had to work on, should have their staff cleaned out isn't the equivalent of saying people should be raped or murdered, as dumb as the statement might be.

 Guy was stupid for openly posting that months before he was hired, especially if they could trace it back to him, though.

Then again, being a neogaf mod is not exactly a real job, as much as Besada whishes it to be...

Funny how self-proclaimed fighters for social justice actively promote and participate in shaming virgins and those who live at home. Can't we all come up with something new?

Quote
Losing your virginity is nothing special tbh. But it's still kinda odd if you're in your mid 20s+

Fake it till you make it if it bothers you.

Quote
Yeah, I find it disappointing how prevalent it is to equate sex with self worth, including here on GAF.

Quote
Really, outside of anything to do with performing sex acts, which is the only place where this sort of thing is actually relevant, it shouldn't matter at all. There's this bizarre attitude surrounding sex that makes it feel like some kind of compulsory, mandatory activity that everyone must go through at some point, and it's just ridiculous. The whole thing is ridiculous. It's not nearly amazing or transformative enough an experience to warrant the kind of weight so many cultures place on it.

Quote
And PLEASE PLEASE don't continue with any thought that having had intercourse will change your life in any way.

I'm an addict with a Masters of Science in Electrical Engineering, and this has led to me being in MANY MANY situations where my brain overcomes logic. I have a ridiculously beautiful wife (you can image search my my old GAF posts if you're so inclined)

Quote
It is a bit hard to deal with at the age of 32, fortunately i am isolated enough from the society to not have to hear people mention it. I swing between fatalism, trying to keep hope, and overthinking things.I try to focus on thingsi can control and feelings and people cannot be

Quote
The egoic mind will always, always, always find a game to continue it's perpetuity of lack. If it's not "I haven't fucked" it's "I haven't fucked X people" or "I haven't fucked in X way" or "I haven't fucked in X time" or "I lack this" or "I lack that" where the game is played now beyond the topic of the "filling the less-than me" void which will never, ever be filled because on an intrinsic level, one is never lacking. Ever.

It is deeply hard for that sense of self-realization to soak in, as we avoid it. We care too much to accumulate, to look outside, to acquire, instead of inquire into the nature of thought, the feeling of lack, and the empty games of filling it up. It's all distractions, and what is most tragic is, by and large, we have succeeded in this regard than arguably more than anything our species has done with our limelight in the universe.

My MO online is, "don't be a jerk". Most of GAF's rules can be boiled down to this, FWIW. It may require some self-censorship (particularly for jerks) but I'd argue that' a good thing. We should all take a moment to consider if we're meeting a minimum level of basic decency with our discourse.

I highly doubt Trump knows PR is under his purview. I'm sure some advisers have explained, but he'd be like "really? You're just pulling my leg" since (speaking anecdotally) I don't really know ANYONE that takes a trip to PR in the US.

100% serious. PR is/was never mentioned in school. Most American's don't give a shit about the rest of the world, so outside of nightly news-casts about certain stories (terrorism, mainly) it's like "well, that sucks. Oh well, back to the Kardashians."
