Just a word of advice for Atelier Resetera - you can try to "not talk about GAF" but since your history is based on them, it's not going to work.

We tried since... 2008? Thats part of the reason why we changed the site/domain from "evilbore" to "the bore". But we always had that stigma of being a GAF off-shoot. So we just said, fine, here's a thread for everyone to vent in, at least it'll be centered in one spot.

Good luck though!

Latest word on resetera discord is that first wave membership will only be going out to those who can supply a Hillary 2016 donation receipt.

Once the one hand, that sounds too far-fetched, but on the other hand is it really? I wonder how they're gonna break the news to Bernie supporters who only donated to Feel the Bern. They would have a legitimate claim at a membership in such a case, since the money that Bernie had leftover from his campaign went to Hillary's. Hmm.

But the Empire didn't think the Death Star would blow up either.  Even the Force sensitive ones didn't see it.  I think NeoGAF is much more like the Death Star.  A lot of them always posting how indestructable they thought they were.

Do people realize that banned members are still members of a website, including whatever information they left out there before they went account suicide?  Resetera is getting some top shelf intellectuals.

I would like to take this opportunity to announce that I, benjipwns, will be launching a New NeoGAF Replacement Forum.

The administrator will of course be, I, benjipwns.

As recent events on NeoGAF have shown you can't trust others to be there when you most need them, so the the list of moderators is as follows.
Moderators:
benjipwns

To best ensure that the forum proceeds in an orderly fashion users will be divided into two classes. There will be "members" who can make threads and post in them. And there will be "readers" who can read threads created. All members will undergo serious background checks to ensure that they are not Gamergater Trolls or Russian Nazi's. Currently the list of users is as follows.
Members:
benjipwns

Readers:
Dennis

However, with heavy hearts, it has come to the attention of moderators and administrative staff that after examining details posted on NeoGAF.com that benjipwns was a notorious and monstrous troll who was permabanned for a troll burnout after not voting for Hillary Clinton. As such forum member benjipwns will be permanently banned. As will Dennis.

Projected launch date will be Q1-ish after the issuing of a statement.

Thank you for your patience and please understand.

You got a discord link?

Plz share benji Discord link, can't wait to get out of this Bore hellhole.

No, it was "evilbore" as a play on EviLore's cardboard personality (it was that bad even back in 2006), but there were some events and the domain was changed to "The Bore" and it's been that since.

I was one of the ones who wanted it changed. We had become our own thing by then, and wanted to get away from just being a gaf offshoot. You know, regardless of the giant gaf thread that's always at the top of the page.

Why is it impossible to get the fucking avatar to work in this place?

When linking the avatar url, use http:// instead of https://
i did do that, straight from imgur.

imgur is https:// automatically on browsers now a days. You have to manually edit it. Especially if you're on Chrome.
