I don’t even know who marrec is. If he was a special guest, that was like having some young floozy that nobody has heard of like that Jennifer Lawrence girl on Late Night.

[nachobro]

legitimately pathetic

I think I scared marrec off, guys.

I always scare the bore's special guest stars away

BTW I liked that movie annihilation

really weird body horror stuff

I’m going to see Black Panther again tonight because everything else in the theaters sucks and I’ve already seen Annihilation twice.

Also I’m gonna take a shit.

Update: another young child was murdered by a pet dog in Missouri yesterday. Still awaiting details. The kid was young enough that we may possibly have a coleslaw situation.

2. What is a coleslaw situation?

1. I’ll PM you so I don’t trigger the boreflakes.

2.The child was really young (like 13 months iirc) so it may have been completely shredded.

Why would you ask him that?  Whatever it is, you don't want to know.

Lol considering it’s still coming hard and thick (no homo  ) I bet I probably won’t shovel until tomorrow afternoon. Maybe.

Tell fiction to stay away, I actually like her and wouldnt want her to be subjected to the lamery we engage in.

As explained many times, genitals don’t determine gender. A hermaphrodite isn’t automatically bigendered.

Personally I believe in transgenderism, I don't believe in pretentious tumblr distinguished mentally-challenged fellows many riddled with mental issues, biggest amongst them being extreme stupidity, thinking they're bi-gender or any of the other pseudo-intellectual classifications because as a girl they're a tomboy or as a boy they're a little feminine.

[thisismyusername]

Uh guys, you're missing the latest gold from Neogaf.

Just to clarify a little (your synopsis is largely accurate): I was just on the cusp of pulling myself out of one of the worst depressions of my life when it all happened. Dragged myself to ACL a few weeks before the scandal, and went out to see the Eclipse Totality last second that August and those were some of the only things I did in quite a while. GF at the time attempted suicide in front of me and that...changed me, sent me spiraling into darkness all year. I wasn't leaving my apartment and yet my apartment was the location where it happened and a constant reminder, too. I'd wake up and hop on GAF and it was the most negative and hostile it had ever been in its history and my attempts to be a moderating influence all failed, I was finding out about betrayals among the staff that were making things even worse, etc., so my mindset was as toxic and ruinous as it's probably ever been, with the personal stuff combined with everything on the site. Internally with the mod team the bitterness was spreading, too, and a lot of people weren't enjoying being part of the mod team anymore.

I really should've gone into therapy right away after that suicide stuff, but I shut down as a result. The previous year I had done Kilimanjaro and racing schools and all sorts of lively adventurous stuff and was in good spirits, but the aforementioned fucked me up hard, and the scandal hit me out of nowhere when I was down and out in a major way. I was blindsided and more than a little upset about being falsely accused, and whatever leaked from the NDA-breaking internal transcripts going straight to the press before I could prepare anything public-facing reflected how shocked and indignant I was about it I'm sure. I thought I was speaking in confidence (backed by NDA...) among friends, and I wanted everyone on the team to understand the background and be able to retain trust in me etc. So much for trust. :/ (to be clear, that was only a small subset of the ex-mods afaik; most were and are good peeps)

Looking back with a clearer head, boy did I fuck up the PR in a lot of ways (why in the world did I give a phone interview from 1am to 4am after not having slept for days at that point, rambling incoherently about largely tangential events? True story, but Christ, not the most relevant). As much as I wanted to have an open dialogue with the community, though, the community was burning this place to the ground, calling me a rapist, telling me to off myself, and we got DDoSed besides. I was really shaken up by the accusation, by the mass exodus internally, by the leaks, by the attempts to kill the site from within the community, by crazy people trying to ruin the lives of anyone associated with me or neogaf, by the smear campaigns from the games press; all of it.

I know a lot of people have always disliked me, at least on the internet. I'd like to think it's mostly a misunderstanding about where I'm coming from or a natural result of being the face of a big community where a lot of people get banned, since usually here I'm either trying to be on the level or cracking jokes, and when I'm putting on the serious face it's usually for the sake of the site, but I sincerely loved my little community. When I'd go to E3 the haters would be nowhere to be found and there was always an outpouring of appreciation and support, pleas to always stay indie, etc. I took it to heart. I've had the privilege of meeting most of the legends of the gaming industry and most had astonishingly kind words. Same when I'd go to meetups around the world. People showed me around, treated me as they would family, always kept a fresh beer in my hand. Through experiences like that, this place gained special meaning to me.

I'm probably just a fool, though. A lot of those same people (not the industry people, but the regulars here, many of whom I had met...) were among the first to light the torches the moment they thought they saw what they thought was suitable ammunition.

When the dust settled, though, there were still a lot of people who cared about this place, myself included, and I saw an opportunity to take a hard pivot away from the hostility and sensationalism that had been plaguing the dialogue here in recent years. Enough of that for one lifetime, I think. Again, ultimately those emerging problems are mine to take ownership of, but there were a lot of moving parts to the full story of NeoGAF. Could easily fill a book, and you know what my word counts can get up to just with regular gaf posts. ;b

I'm glad I can talk about it some without people breaking out the noose.jpg et al now! Site's not without its problems, but the current mod team is <3, the sysadmins have done a heroic job, and everything's way more chill than it was in '17. Made a lot of changes in recent months and trying to set a positive example with my own participation where I can. Not giving up on gaf any time soon.

Cheers.

GG performed an organized harassment campaign against me the moment I called out the initial movement for being dumb (being based on a salty ex's blog post about serial seduction for a non-profit game), and never really stopped. My initial comments were mostly joking and satirical, too, as per my usual way of things, but that didn't stop the barrage of hundreds of hateful tweets, the death threats, the obsessive full-time bloggers and redditers trying to dig up dirt on me for years afterwards, and even a criminally defamatory article posted by Slate (via an alt-right mouthpiece) targeting me and NeoGAF.

Spare us the virtuous BS and maybe pick a different subculture to fly a flag for. I'm anti-censorship and very much against the ridiculous tumblr Problematic brigade, but GG is a poisoned well if I've ever seen one.

I dont have a problem with cream per say, I have an issue with the distinguished mentally-challenged fucking shit you morans talk about when cream is around.

Have you read Cream's posts when he's under the protection of his lunatic buddies? They say you expose your true self when you acquire power so my opinion of Cream isn't positive, to say the least, especially because of how little power he has.

I never had and never wanted any "power" in a forum. The less power I have the more likely it is for someone to engage with me in actual debate. But yeah, I prefer someone to call me a fucking distinguished mentally-challenged fellow (cue the fucking distinguished mentally-challenged fellow posts) than be afraid to offer his opinion in fear of getting banned. I'd honestly have no reason to be in that forum if that ever happened.
