You are receiving this message because you posted in defense of Donald Trump. I no longer provide individual responses on this matter. It has been my experience that Trump supporters are universally incapable of accepting verifiable truths about him and, by extension, themselves, thus rendering discussion pointless and, therefore, a waste of time.
I wish you all the best in your ongoing battle with reality.
I fucking LOVE when retarded authority figures(lolmods) are stupid enough to impose their will in the hopes of garnering sympathy for a cause, not realizing that their annoying power-trip will surely make them do the opposite out of spite.

okay how about based on the fact that nobody with a brain actually likes trannies or muslims (and even those trannies hate themselves) and only tolerate them because they have to, lest they risk their life being upended for "being a bigot".
that, combined with "shut up and like them or else", is why they spite them.

Imagine being such a waste of skin that you actually call people “trannies.” You should change every aspect of yourself so you don’t suck anymore. Then maybe people will actually like you. Also take a shower
It’s cuz OP is an idiot. Being on this subreddit is a mistake. Everyone here is a waste of breath. Good thing they never leave their houses to cause actual harm to people
Spin rinse dryer? I just think you shouldn’t go out of your way to offend people. Is it that hard? To treat people like people? I mean it’s fine if you think trans people have a mental illness or something, but why you gotta be so full of hate?they’re not gonna hurt you or change your quality of life in any way. I doubt your life is that sad that you find trying to offend people on the internet fulfilling. Whenever you wanna offend someone just do something that you actually LIKE doing like playing a video game or eating a tasty pizza

I like offending people and making drama posts, as well as vidya and tasty pizza.
but also

Why do you like offending people? there isn’t really any skill in it or challenge so I don’t know how it could be fulfilling. And Nobody’s gonna send you to jail for using the wrong pronoun, I mean I guess you could get fined for it in Canada but I don’t live there so I don’t know. But u should use people’s preferred pronoun because it makes people happy and not sad. But if you just like spreading negativity then womp womp I guess

here's the difference between you and I. You are pretending to care about not hurting people's feelings because you want someone on the internet to read you saying that and go "wow, what a good person". You don't actually care about their feelings, but fine I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and pretend that I think you do.
Now the difference between us is that I'm smart enough to realize that the feelings of mentally ill retards are worth dog shit, especially when their ideology leads to the degradation and collapse of society because these people try and tear down everything and can't give anything back.
It’s cuz OP is an idiot. The fact that you are being downvoted means you are morally right. Being on this subreddit is a mistake. Everyone here is a waste of breath. Good thing they never leave their houses to cause actual harm to people
It's the classic "lmao you got BAMBOOZLED by my epic jokez dumbass (but also I genuinely meant every word and it's great that this started a conversation)".
I love how hard this was proven just one day later. Reddit moderators are mostly pathetic losers, this is the reason why this site is a giant shithole.
You guys are really fucking mean to internet mods.
On the Internet, we cannot assume that every participant in a community has the community’s best interest at heart. Everyone who spends their time online has encountered trolls, people whose sole purpose is to disrupt and destroy a community. Their motivations may be ideological or they might simply be in it for the lulz. In moderated communities, they pop up constantly and are banned out once they are discovered. But this doesn’t stop the trolls from trying to do harm to the community. They just make new accounts and start the process all over again. Moderating communities online is like playing Wack-A-Mole. You just keep knocking down the same instigators over and over again. But that work is what allows the rest of the community to function. Spies keep getting kicked out of the town hall while they change their disguises over and over again, but over all the majority of members who are actually invested in the community is maintained.
On a board with no moderation, however, the spies will quickly come to outnumber the earnest participants. Trolls arrive, sew mischief, and are allowed to stay. And so the news spreads that there is a space where trolls can gather and operate in peace. As 8chan’s affiliation with GamerGate demonstrated, these sites even become bases from which trolls can launch attacks into other communities (the town hall becomes a spy headquarters intent on upending order in all the neighboring towns). And so the balance quickly tips over so that those whose primary goal is to destroy other communities become the majority.
But, the great irony is that these spies end up undoing themselves by wrecking the community that welcomed them in addition to the communities they target. Trolls care not for whether a community will grow and prosper or even remain in existence. They are happy to jump from site to site leaving nothing but ruins in their wake. They don’t care if they use up and discard 8chan or Voat. They don’t care if their town hall is quarantined from the rest of the world because of their own bad or illegal behavior. When the champions of free speech who invited them in find themselves in legal trouble or labeled as child pornography supporters by the world’s biggest and most popular search engine or denied access to funds and hosting services, well, that’s just more lulz for the trolls to enjoy.
Now I’m not saying that all speech online should be carefully monitored and scrutinized. I agree with the town hall model that debate is important and censorship can damage the integrity and intellectual capacity of a community. However, there do need to be SOME rules governing how a town hall meeting is to be conducted. Otherwise, don’t be surprised when it burns to the ground.
April Fools' on this site is literally the worst. It really shows how unfunny a lot of mods are. I want something like 4chan when they combined boards like /cock/. Could you imagine CTH combined with TD? It would be glorious.
it was added as a hidden board for a while but g-slur moot killed it and they ran off to mlpol.net so if you want to experience the a-slur first hand its still up sorta
Baitposters, BLACKED-posters, "How will /pol/ ever recover" posters, the canadians and the rest of the worst people on the board were all gone in a matter of hour. It was paraside.
Noticed that as well, people have been pulling "april fools jokes" now for over a week. This was seriously one of the days we really didn't need to give the christmas treatment Soon it will just be an entire month of shitty jokes

Look at this npc cück trying to memory hole the changed leftie narrative again. Typical triggered blue haired sjw reeing once more while cultural Marxists are taking over the pop culture.
Everybody who has gotten slurrrped in the ass by outrage culture generally speaking has lots of difficulties sounding like a real person instead of a collective. Then they actually come up with an meme-insults like " npc" that's def a big yikes from me.
: =)
In general, Im not sure I ever heard anyone doing anything major on April Fools's day because..you know. April fools.
Npc mods. I just think it's hilarious how many people can't wait to lecture others on how to behave and then we find out they all commit far worse acts.
I'm not sure, but it also seems to be the same vocabulary as that of a high school principal. I'm pretty sure "do better, be better" was the slogan my HS had.
It's the same paternalistic instinct driving both cases. "yall can't behave and gotta be better or no more recess"

I've seen it so many times, a couple (as in one or two) comments in a thread at zero or the single digits with thousands of other comments that the mods find offensive (because around half the time they're pretty milquetoast, just the mods being overly sensitive) and suddenly the mods things are getting brigaded by some outside force and closes the thread. Then they open another theard with the intent to lecture and demand that the 'community' has to do better by expelling that problematic elements.
I fucking laughed my ass off when that one post with YOUR SILENCE IS COMPLIANCE. Its the equivalent of a kid throwing a fit because another kid has the same toy as them.

The ‘pro-rape’ one is even an ‘anti-rape’ comment that they seem to have simply misunderstood, with a guy railing against the lack of censorship based on the fact that crimes in video games are not the same as crimes in real life.
And the ‘pro-pedophilia/rape’ one is quite misleading. It’s a guy saying fictional crimes shouldn’t be a case for censorship because the victims are video game characters rather than real life people.
The ‘pro-rape/pedophilia’ example is an ironic post they clearly misunderstood, also. It’s a guy who’s explicitly saying ‘pervert games’ should be stopped and using OTT shocking examples to illustrate why he thinks the ‘these crimes only affect fictional characters’ excise shouldn’t be accepted.
To make matters worse, the vast majority of people who browse Reddit do not have an account. It is idiotic to lock down a popular subreddit and tell visitors that they are bad when most have never left a single comment.
Transgender surgeries are a complete waste of money and time tho, plastic surgeons are making bank off these people bc they’re willing to pay for all these expensive surgeries to barely pass as male/f-slurs lmfao
All their examples were heavily downvoted or instantly removed. Why lock down a sub, just because a tiny minority of their users are assholes? How is making some long winded post and a few charity links going to stop these idiots from saying mean things online? Just ban them and move on.
I swear, these weirdo internet moderators love to overstate their importance. They're unpaid internet janitors for a fucking video game forum. Calm down, lads.

The charities are always properly shit too. The fuck do first world gåy people need a charity for? If you’re gonna donate money to something give it to something proper like the RSPB.
because being woke isn't about others or the community, its about yourself. you will never cum so hard as you did when you got high off your own superficial moral superiority.
Interesting how there aren't a single site for men's health listed in there. Women aren't a minority or a marginalized group anymore. If we're going to signal about equality, we must act with equality.

How is it that these people always manage to wurm their way up into positions of influence where they begin to guide (often force) complete irrelevant communites towards their utopian goals via a clenched (internet) fist?
Surely they know, they have too, that this behavior sours people on them. Guess they think they can suppress the resentment enough with social control and mass banning.
And not to dig up ancient fossils, but Jim laid it out pretty well at the end of the great internet war of 2014.
Back when SRS was still a new thing, they had a call to arms. Take over as many subs as possible. The Archangel mods all used alt accounts to worm their way into subs. This is how phedre was created.
That means you're Nitesmoke, the original reddit shit-stirrer! How the fuck are you not a mod of this sub? You took on the whole site, you took down WoW (temporarily), you murdered r/ladybashing, you slayed the mighty Saydrah! You made fake screenshot of the b34nz guy (mod of r/marijuana) calling you a "muslim f-slur" which led to the creation of r/Trees. So many good memories of you starting shit back in the day... Teach us your ways!
Bro, I live for this shit. This was back when reddit had actual drama, with alt accounts and admin intervention. Besides, who in this glass house of a subreddit should be casting any stones?
WREKT! Thanks, it's nice when people keep the stalkers off me. It's hard to be anonymous when they follow me around for a decade. You have earned one schmeckle.
Just google it. There was a fucking kotaku article about it. I pissed off the entire internet with that one. But the fucking clowns at Blizzard had it coming. Here we were, 9 days into the WoD launch, and the game was still unplayable. The subreddit was a shitshow, meanwhile I got Blizzard's community douse ordering me to clean up the posts shitting on them. I'd had enough. I shut the sub down and refused to reopen it. Blizzard contacted the admins and they handed the sub to the second in command, aphoenix, and he's been following orders like a good boy ever since. I'm sure him and his crew of nerds will be in any moment to refute all this, but it's what happened, more or less. If I'm wrong, I really don't care enough to get it right, this version makes me feel superior, so it's how I'm choosing to remember it.
I used to play it. You wouldn't believe how intense shilling people do for that company that don't even work for it. Even if they have no position of power. They've only played blizz games since 2004, maybe more than half of their lives, and just short circuit if you insult them.
To be fair, it's lot easier to be blizzards shill when no one is playing the game. Wasn't there leak that wod at launch was 5 million player and speculation that there's one million or less now.
No but seriously, you closed the sub because your server was the only one that still wasn't working right. By 9 days in almost everyone else was up and running but your server was still a shit pile so you made the sub private.
I dunno about the other stuff you said about Blizzard employees bitching at you to keep things nice on the sub. But that shit certainly hasn't been happening with BfA, /r/wow has been a den of negativity of just how shitty that expac is.
How dare you? BFA is the pinnacle of game design. Blizzard is God. Just for this disrespectful comment, I'm going to log in and do an Island Expedition, or maybe a World Quest. SMH
what happened to SRS seriously? it wasn't banned or anything but i came back to this site after a while and it's completely dead . did everyone just move on to twitter or something?
Normal, well adjusted people don’t become moderators. The position attracts these types of people because it offers them a little bit of power over what people discuss and how they discuss it.
The reason why they’re able to become moderators in the first place is because nobody else wants to do it. It’s tedious, time consuming, and annoying, and you don’t get paid. The only reason why anyone would actually want to do it is if they had ulterior motives.
Right? I go to /r/games to have whatever newest game that's coming outs marketing bullshit forced down my throat. What the fucking fuck does this bullshit have to do with that? I mean seriously though, it's bad enough the subreddit is total SHIT for games discussion, but lets not even make it decent enough for gaming news.
Thread gets shut down for "yall cant behave". Also have 100 bucks on them linking to the horrible awful modmail they have gotten while the subs been locked.
That sub is such a shame. They should ban all photos, and have it only be in-game gifs/screenshots. I want to see cool things from games people are playing, not your mum's crocheted Zelda keyring.
I took being a forum mod so seriously when I was a freshman in high school. Really helped me out with the onset crippling depression by giving me the ability to kick out smartasses who, in all honesty, barely actually broke the rules for temporary emotional highs.
But now sixteen years later, I look back and I would probably beat up my older self for being such a loser wimp because I was just like these flaming show queens.
If they seriously think this is going to do any sort of long term good, then this is a reminder to them that I thought I was sooper smrt in high school too by being an unnecessary beacon of righteousness.
Give toddlers the option of drawing or tapping on a smartphone, if they pick the smartphone execute them and any surviving members of their family tree.
I also remember being a forum mod back in high school. I took that shit way too seriously. Now it's very apparent to me that mods are either children, or grown men who still have the mentality of a child.
Some of their examples are literally a year old, and I don't think any of them were actually upvoted. Sounds like /r/games had a real crisis on their hands here.
They have completed their transition (ha) in becoming ResetEra. Now when they open back up I fully, unironically expect them to ban for things like mansplaining or ableism.
Being against emulation for consoles that are dead? That takes a spectacular level of specialness, being against emulation for consoles that are out at this moment in time and will cut into current sales? That's acceptable.

Funny, cause r/games started because r/gaming was (still is) shit for discussion and is literally just memes. So now some people are probably gonna make a new subreddit for true gaming discussion.
There really needs to be a subreddit that only bans like, spam. A place where dissenting opinions are only downvoted and told to fuck off, instead of being banned or deleted.
that's what I thought when I first read about this. In here everyone's reeeeing about how it's a stupid fucking stunt for april fools. Now it is but at least try to appreciate the drama potential we have here.
I don't know, that dumpster fire of a sticky thread is at 72% upvoted. Apparently shitty comments that are instantly downvoted and deleted, really scare people.
Is there anything more condescending that being proselytized to by internet janitors that doitforfree on a website, about something as innocuous as a vidya game discussion board, at that? And of course Redditors gilded it multiple times over.
Not child labor going on in Asia. Not the slave trade still happening in Africa. Civil war in South America. No... trans people not getting their feefees hurt. They really do think they're the next MLK.
honestly while its nice they linked to charities and are speaking against blatant bigotry, the fact they tried to throw so much shit into the soup really diluted their message of "be less toxic" especially by sometimes trying to highlight comments that jump to extremes simply because that extreme was in the mods views favor. ended up downvoting the post for that along. r/Games Mods, next time you want to support minorities and speak against bigotry, Do better, be better.
It's pretty shitty actually when nothing there is meant to help men while everyone else is duly represented. I'm a poor white orphaned male, so I actually hope these people get murdered.

Thats fuking point, she could have voted trump and it wouldn't matter. He got angry for his wife for apsolutely nothing. But to be fair he was dying of cancer so that kind of outburst was comming. But it didn't need to be public.
He also complained of chemo-brain a few times. The guy always had anger issues (it really started after WoW's Cataclysm Expac), but it got worse and worse around the time he got cancer. Part of it was stress from his diagnosis I'm sure, and then he had the constant harassment and threats, and then TDS and that horrible electio cycle and going in and out of being terminal.
The guy was fucked over in a billion ways so honestly I can forgive him from being a cunt.
Dumpster fire subreddit with brainlet moderators, not really a surprise. They can virtue signal big time while still pulling the 'it was just an April Fools guys!!!' epik troll.
The subreddit has devolved into "/r/Games_Marketing". But lets pretend it's some sort of bastion for progressive thought or someshit. You are the moderators of a fucking subreddit that regurgitates marketing campaigns, shut the fuck up.
It's almost like progressivism is largely a corporate movement that companies use and abuse to give them good pr rather than an expression of genuine belief held by CEOs.
I don't know about you but I find it pretty hilarious when internet losers have the nerve to type "be better". Not to mention that this is seriously not that bad of a problem considering the incredibly inoffensive posts they had to dig up as proof for their claims. At any rate it's pretty funny seeing these r-slurred mods behave like they do. I just hope they keep themselves safe!

You couldn't discuss shit for years because anything slightly controversial (e.g. recently the Epic launcher data collection or criticism of Read Dead Redemption 2) gets removed and all the other shit is a circlejerk.
I totally agree with their support of Islam because it's my sincere belief that once the global caliphate is in place that we'll be able to stone all of these degenerates to death.

They think speech they have deemed 'problematic' must be curtailed since it will spread among the masses and make the foundation of oppression, in essence bad thoughts is the first step, then bad spech, then bad actions, then really bad actions. So even minor stuff, like saying you're anti-trans while still being respectful, is seen as something worth removing for the greater good.
Some Mod
Went into a 9 month old thread
Found that post
Screenshotted it
Uploaded it to new imgur account
Linked it to show everyone how awful they've been
Imagine being so pathetic that you either go back nine months to find some comment of someone being mean on the internet or that you screenshot things for a whole year to make the ultimate "YA'LL CAN'T BEHAVE!!"-seriouspost on April Fool's because heaven forbid that any day is not seriousposting day.
I took some time to go through the examples they put in their locked sticky, to see if there really was no merrit to the posts they removed. Turns out some are not as bad as they are described to be, and others actually raise valid points and in the interest of fairness (since the opposite of those opionions is allowed or even encouraged on /r/Games) should not have been removed:
"Sonicfox is an asshole who thinks just because he's [homosexual] or black he has a right to say whatever and is honestly the worst thing in the current FGC. Even Low tier god has the decency to keep his mouth shut sometimes".
Seriously which part of that comment do they find offensive? Sonicfox IS an asshole: when he accepted some award it was the most cringe worthy shit I've ever seen and honestly I cannot watch it again: https://youtu.be/1jz0WE5C2Nc?t=549 - he basically starts off by talking about his sexuality and is dressed like a furry. When accepting an award for playing a fighting game. But he cannot be called out for that? Don't allow assholes like Sonicfox to turn something irrelevant like their sexuality into a 'shield'.
As a medical professional: promoting transgenderism, a mental illness, as normal is sicknening
That's not transphobia. That's saying we should treat it as a medical issue, not promote as 'the new normal'. Gender dysphoria is real, and just like being 'transabled' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_integrity_dysphoria) those people deserve psychological treatment, not state-funded surgery. At the very least, I don't think many people will disagree that we should not promote it as 'normal' when it isn't.
The next example is:
"First of I want to state that I do not in any way agree with or support what this man has done, it's an awful, evil crime. I'll be the first to condemn this guy. But its as I've said elsewhere: This is the result of multiculturalism. And it's not just the far right. As the left what with their open door immigration policy and importing muslims in by the millions is also responsible for this huge increase in far right activity etc. To the left I ask were you truly that naive, that dumb and deranged? Did you honestly think bringing in millions of muslims indefinitely was going to end well?(...) Yes it's unfortunate its come to this. But the powers that be had to know it was going to happen eventually. Islam and The West are like oil and water. They don't mix and will never do so.
This was in a topic about a CSGO player being killed in the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christchurch_mosque_shootings - as you can see this poster explicitly distances himself from what the shooter did and condemns it. But considering the anti-Islam content of the shooter's manifesto it is not unreasonable to draw the conclusion that a big motivator for the attack was the result of open door immigration policy. I do not know why it's somehow off-limits to have this discussion, although I do agree it was probably 'Too Soon'(tm). It's not right if there is only one acceptable opinion one can espouse on a subject like this ("gun control gun control gun control alt right Drumpff")
Wow that's the dumbest fucking excuse ever. "Sheeit nigga, society be forcin my family into da projects so das why I be committin deez crimes instead of going to school to get educated n sheeit."
Blaming the situation of African Americans on things like "societal pressures, institutionalized racism, and socioeconomic factors" are just weak excuses to avoid the issue. In fact they're just conspiracy theories.
Blacks are the longest established minority in the US but are among the least successful, whereas asians, despitefacing plenty of their own discrimination in the US in the past, are much more successful, despite not being here as long".
Again, whilst the opening statement is making fun of 'ebonics' and could be considered 'offensive', there is a factual basis for these statements: McWhorter (2000), linguistics professor at University of California at Berkley, feels that the challenges faced by African-American students come not from white society, but are generated from within the black community.
The cults of victimology, seperatism, and anti intellectualism are self-generated barriers to academic succes, even for black studernts at elite prep schools and colleges. McWhorter states, "It is much easier on the soul to return always to racism to explain black underperformance... that black students want to learn but are thwarted from doing so, is not the usual case."
The cult of victimology calls attention to victimization where it barely exists at all. And as McWhorter explains, "... all too often this is not done with a view toward forging solutions, but to foster and nurture an unfocused brand of resentment and sense of alienation from the mainstream."
Instead of engaging in this discussion, the post is just removed.
and this one:
"How many people in the world have been raped and massacred in the name of Islam? That ideology is perfectly allowed on the internet. Should we ban Muslims from using the internet? After all it does turn them into extremists..."
That was not saying "we should ban muslims from using the internet". That comment was drawing attention to the double standard in the censorship in New Zealand.
I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on why these comments are removed but the other side of the discussion is not being removed. That makes it seem like there is only one kind of thought allowed on topics such as this.
I got gilded once on an old account and other than being able to see 500 posts in a topic, there was pretty much nothing of any value. The gold sub or whatever it was called is a toxic trashheap.
Saying that I used to pick up gold for a month just before going on plane journeys so I could read a few interesting askreddit posts if I got bored in the air so I should probably unironically kms
When the HBO site crashed on the 7th season finale and someone posted the torrented stream in the comments I guided them but only because they never replied to whatever I asked what charity they would rather I donate to instead. Idk if that helps absolve me of my sins.
It's widely known that mods and admins can hand out gold for free. No way that lame post with no comments somehow got more gildings than most posts this year site wide.
Their "examples" are so minute and poorly received by the community that it's clear that the mods are fighting a non-existent battle, and jerking each other off with how "woke" they are. any mockery of this grandstanding will be precisely as you stated: the community clearly isn't as woke as the mods, so thank christ they did this.
I can't imagine what the mod chat looked like for this to happen. multiple people (presumably adults) must have agreed to this for it to come to fruition.
EXACTLY. When they unlock the thread and start the discussion later today, just wait for them to trot out all the hate messages they got to modmail while the sub was locked. As if that's somehow proof.
The only time I've had a heated gaming moment was on that sub when I said game journalists were hacks and I was promptly taught to do better and be better by having my shit deleted. No ban yet though!

When will people learn that you cannot force someone to like a person. I don't know why so many mods force their 'justice' on someone telling you what you cannot like or like
They have shit they are linking to that is from literally a year ago. The problem must not be all that fucking big if all their examples are heavily downvoted, and they gotta dig a year back to find them.
Ah so this is why I could seldom find any posts that criticize all the cringeworthy supposed “woke” and “diverse”/“progressive” posturing in gaming on r/games......
I bet those mods are sat in their lairs fully believing they are champions of the people standing up to the rest of the world who are out to get them bless.
All this post does is say "hey, we're one of the most mature gaming communities out there and we're overrun with trolls", which is a lie. /r/Games is clean as fuck.
Ars Technica has picked up on this story, and of course their commenters are using it as evidence that anyone who's ever picked up a controller is toxic.
/r/Games mods are helping perpetuate stereotypes that anyone with an Xbox is a racist incel. They should be helping to destroy that stereotype, whilst at the same time disavowing trolls.
They should have kept the sub open but had a sticky letting people donate to charities that give games consoles to hospitals.
Well if the gamers are pissed off, maybe they should have thought of that before they got radicalized by Pewdiepie and shot up a Mosque full of innocent New Zealanders, don't you think?
I don't know if you treat people like children all the time I'd be surprised if they can be mature. This ultimately does nothing but make you look like f-words who can't have any fun.
April Fools Day jokes are supposed to be funny. Where's the fucking funny in posting a bunch of f-slur charities and telling g*mers to stop being toxic?
this must be the penultimate april fools joke. I don't think this one can be beaten. they even say "gamers rise up" for fucks sake, we're being bamboozled. right?
It’s not uncommon for us to see the real issues surrounding these communities be trivialized, derided out of ignorance, or worse, for the sake of entertainment.
I wonder what's going to happen next april fools now that they painted a bullseye on their backs. Imagine all those throwaway accounts that will be made and banned because they targeted gamers.
being a good person isnt virtue signaling but i guess it is to the virgins in this subreddit who think doing anything but jerking off over anime and vicariously living thru others is too much effort lmao

Hello.
You are receiving this message because you posted in defense of Donald Trump. I no longer provide individual responses on this matter. It has been my experience that Trump supporters are universally incapable of accepting verifiable truths about him and, by extension, themselves, thus rendering discussion pointless and, therefore, a waste of time.
I wish you all the best in your ongoing battle with reality.
Yours respectfully, a logical person.

I fucking LOVE when retarded authority figures(lolmods) are stupid enough to impose their will in the hopes of garnering sympathy for a cause, not realizing that their annoying power-trip will surely make them do the opposite out of spite.
how do you get this bad at understanding humans?

Plus doing it at the same time a lot of other subs will be doing April Fools stuff a huge chunk of people are going to assume its a joke.
But then again /r/Games is just advertisements anyway

okay how about based on the fact that nobody with a brain actually likes trannies or muslims (and even those trannies hate themselves) and only tolerate them because they have to, lest they risk their life being upended for "being a bigot".
that, combined with "shut up and like them or else", is why they spite them.

Spin rinse dryer? I just think you shouldn’t go out of your way to offend people. Is it that hard? To treat people like people? I mean it’s fine if you think trans people have a mental illness or something, but why you gotta be so full of hate?they’re not gonna hurt you or change your quality of life in any way. I doubt your life is that sad that you find trying to offend people on the internet fulfilling. Whenever you wanna offend someone just do something that you actually LIKE doing like playing a video game or eating a tasty pizza

Why do you like offending people? there isn’t really any skill in it or challenge so I don’t know how it could be fulfilling. And Nobody’s gonna send you to jail for using the wrong pronoun, I mean I guess you could get fined for it in Canada but I don’t live there so I don’t know. But u should use people’s preferred pronoun because it makes people happy and not sad. But if you just like spreading negativity then womp womp I guess
1 Ted_UtteredBoast 2019-04-01
why do you go stir shit in /r/dankchristianmemes ?
maybe you'll find my answers in your answers.
here's the difference between you and I. You are pretending to care about not hurting people's feelings because you want someone on the internet to read you saying that and go "wow, what a good person". You don't actually care about their feelings, but fine I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and pretend that I think you do.
Now the difference between us is that I'm smart enough to realize that the feelings of mentally ill retards are worth dog shit, especially when their ideology leads to the degradation and collapse of society because these people try and tear down everything and can't give anything back.

You guys are really fucking mean to internet mods.
On the Internet, we cannot assume that every participant in a community has the community’s best interest at heart. Everyone who spends their time online has encountered trolls, people whose sole purpose is to disrupt and destroy a community. Their motivations may be ideological or they might simply be in it for the lulz. In moderated communities, they pop up constantly and are banned out once they are discovered. But this doesn’t stop the trolls from trying to do harm to the community. They just make new accounts and start the process all over again. Moderating communities online is like playing Wack-A-Mole. You just keep knocking down the same instigators over and over again. But that work is what allows the rest of the community to function. Spies keep getting kicked out of the town hall while they change their disguises over and over again, but over all the majority of members who are actually invested in the community is maintained. On a board with no moderation, however, the spies will quickly come to outnumber the earnest participants. Trolls arrive, sew mischief, and are allowed to stay. And so the news spreads that there is a space where trolls can gather and operate in peace. As 8chan’s affiliation with GamerGate demonstrated, these sites even become bases from which trolls can launch attacks into other communities (the town hall becomes a spy headquarters intent on upending order in all the neighboring towns). And so the balance quickly tips over so that those whose primary goal is to destroy other communities become the majority. But, the great irony is that these spies end up undoing themselves by wrecking the community that welcomed them in addition to the communities they target. Trolls care not for whether a community will grow and prosper or even remain in existence. They are happy to jump from site to site leaving nothing but ruins in their wake. They don’t care if they use up and discard 8chan or Voat. They don’t care if their town hall is quarantined from the rest of the world because of their own bad or illegal behavior. When the champions of free speech who invited them in find themselves in legal trouble or labeled as child pornography supporters by the world’s biggest and most popular search engine or denied access to funds and hosting services, well, that’s just more lulz for the trolls to enjoy. Now I’m not saying that all speech online should be carefully monitored and scrutinized. I agree with the town hall model that debate is important and censorship can damage the integrity and intellectual capacity of a community. However, there do need to be SOME rules governing how a town hall meeting is to be conducted. Otherwise, don’t be surprised when it burns to the ground.

Everybody who has gotten slurrrped in the ass by outrage culture generally speaking has lots of difficulties sounding like a real person instead of a collective.

Then they open another theard with the intent to lecture and demand that the 'community' has to do better by expelling that problematic elements.

1 SuperBlaar 2019-04-01
The ‘pro-rape’ one is even an ‘anti-rape’ comment that they seem to have simply misunderstood, with a guy railing against the lack of censorship based on the fact that crimes in video games are not the same as crimes in real life.
1 SuperBlaar 2019-04-01
And the ‘pro-pedophilia/rape’ one is quite misleading. It’s a guy saying fictional crimes shouldn’t be a case for censorship because the victims are video game characters rather than real life people.
1 SuperBlaar 2019-04-01
The ‘pro-rape/pedophilia’ example is an ironic post they clearly misunderstood, also. It’s a guy who’s explicitly saying ‘pervert games’ should be stopped and using OTT shocking examples to illustrate why he thinks the ‘these crimes only affect fictional characters’ excise shouldn’t be accepted.

How is it that these people always manage to wurm their way up into positions of influence where they begin to guide (often force) complete irrelevant communites towards their utopian goals via a clenched (internet) fist?
Surely they know, they have too, that this behavior sours people on them. Guess they think they can suppress the resentment enough with social control and mass banning.

Just google it. There was a fucking kotaku article about it. I pissed off the entire internet with that one. But the fucking clowns at Blizzard had it coming. Here we were, 9 days into the WoD launch, and the game was still unplayable. The subreddit was a shitshow, meanwhile I got Blizzard's community douse ordering me to clean up the posts shitting on them. I'd had enough. I shut the sub down and refused to reopen it. Blizzard contacted the admins and they handed the sub to the second in command, aphoenix, and he's been following orders like a good boy ever since. I'm sure him and his crew of nerds will be in any moment to refute all this, but it's what happened, more or less. If I'm wrong, I really don't care enough to get it right, this version makes me feel superior, so it's how I'm choosing to remember it.

I used to play it. You wouldn't believe how intense shilling people do for that company that don't even work for it. Even if they have no position of power. They've only played blizz games since 2004, maybe more than half of their lives, and just short circuit if you insult them.

No but seriously, you closed the sub because your server was the only one that still wasn't working right. By 9 days in almost everyone else was up and running but your server was still a shit pile so you made the sub private.
I dunno about the other stuff you said about Blizzard employees bitching at you to keep things nice on the sub. But that shit certainly hasn't been happening with BfA, /r/wow has been a den of negativity of just how shitty that expac is.

Normal, well adjusted people don’t become moderators. The position attracts these types of people because it offers them a little bit of power over what people discuss and how they discuss it.
The reason why they’re able to become moderators in the first place is because nobody else wants to do it. It’s tedious, time consuming, and annoying, and you don’t get paid. The only reason why anyone would actually want to do it is if they had ulterior motives.

I took being a forum mod so seriously when I was a freshman in high school. Really helped me out with the onset crippling depression by giving me the ability to kick out smartasses who, in all honesty, barely actually broke the rules for temporary emotional highs.
But now sixteen years later, I look back and I would probably beat up my older self for being such a loser wimp because I was just like these flaming show queens.
If they seriously think this is going to do any sort of long term good, then this is a reminder to them that I thought I was sooper smrt in high school too by being an unnecessary beacon of righteousness.

1 SanityAssassins 2019-04-01
Is there anything more condescending that being proselytized to by internet janitors that do it for free on a website, about something as innocuous as a vidya game discussion board, at that? And of course Redditors gilded it multiple times over.
Not child labor going on in Asia. Not the slave trade still happening in Africa. Civil war in South America. No... trans people not getting their feefees hurt. They really do think they're the next MLK.
1 RollBread 2019-04-01

1 crim-sama 2019-04-01
honestly while its nice they linked to charities and are speaking against blatant bigotry, the fact they tried to throw so much shit into the soup really diluted their message of "be less toxic" especially by sometimes trying to highlight comments that jump to extremes simply because that extreme was in the mods views favor. ended up downvoting the post for that along. r/Games Mods, next time you want to support minorities and speak against bigotry, Do better, be better.

Is California a swing state, lol?
1 letter_of_resignatio 2019-04-01
Thats fuking point, she could have voted trump and it wouldn't matter. He got angry for his wife for apsolutely nothing. But to be fair he was dying of cancer so that kind of outburst was comming. But it didn't need to be public.
1 Yanggangracist99 2019-04-01

1 alexmikli 2019-04-01
He also complained of chemo-brain a few times. The guy always had anger issues (it really started after WoW's Cataclysm Expac), but it got worse and worse around the time he got cancer. Part of it was stress from his diagnosis I'm sure, and then he had the constant harassment and threats, and then TDS and that horrible electio cycle and going in and out of being terminal.
The guy was fucked over in a billion ways so honestly I can forgive him from being a cunt.

They think speech they have deemed 'problematic' must be curtailed since it will spread among the masses and make the foundation of oppression, in essence bad thoughts is the first step, then bad spech, then bad actions, then really bad actions. So even minor stuff, like saying you're anti-trans while still being respectful, is seen as something worth removing for the greater good.
1 OccasionallyClueless 2019-04-01

1 Jonmad17 2019-04-01
The example they gave of a misogynistic comment is the most mild shit of all time. It was more about the award than about women per se
1 article10ECHR 2019-04-01
I took some time to go through the examples they put in their locked sticky, to see if there really was no merrit to the posts they removed. Turns out some are not as bad as they are described to be, and others actually raise valid points and in the interest of fairness (since the opposite of those opionions is allowed or even encouraged on /r/Games) should not have been removed:
Seriously which part of that comment do they find offensive? Sonicfox IS an asshole: when he accepted some award it was the most cringe worthy shit I've ever seen and honestly I cannot watch it again: https://youtu.be/1jz0WE5C2Nc?t=549 - he basically starts off by talking about his sexuality and is dressed like a furry. When accepting an award for playing a fighting game. But he cannot be called out for that? Don't allow assholes like Sonicfox to turn something irrelevant like their sexuality into a 'shield'.
That's not transphobia. That's saying we should treat it as a medical issue, not promote as 'the new normal'. Gender dysphoria is real, and just like being 'transabled' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_integrity_dysphoria) those people deserve psychological treatment, not state-funded surgery. At the very least, I don't think many people will disagree that we should not promote it as 'normal' when it isn't.
The next example is:
This was in a topic about a CSGO player being killed in the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christchurch_mosque_shootings - as you can see this poster explicitly distances himself from what the shooter did and condemns it. But considering the anti-Islam content of the shooter's manifesto it is not unreasonable to draw the conclusion that a big motivator for the attack was the result of open door immigration policy. I do not know why it's somehow off-limits to have this discussion, although I do agree it was probably 'Too Soon'(tm). It's not right if there is only one acceptable opinion one can espouse on a subject like this ("gun control gun control gun control alt right Drumpff")
Again, whilst the opening statement is making fun of 'ebonics' and could be considered 'offensive', there is a factual basis for these statements: McWhorter (2000), linguistics professor at University of California at Berkley, feels that the challenges faced by African-American students come not from white society, but are generated from within the black community.
The cults of victimology, seperatism, and anti intellectualism are self-generated barriers to academic succes, even for black studernts at elite prep schools and colleges. McWhorter states, "It is much easier on the soul to return always to racism to explain black underperformance... that black students want to learn but are thwarted from doing so, is not the usual case."
The cult of victimology calls attention to victimization where it barely exists at all. And as McWhorter explains, "... all too often this is not done with a view toward forging solutions, but to foster and nurture an unfocused brand of resentment and sense of alienation from the mainstream."
Instead of engaging in this discussion, the post is just removed.
and this one:
That was not saying "we should ban muslims from using the internet". That comment was drawing attention to the double standard in the censorship in New Zealand.
I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on why these comments are removed but the other side of the discussion is not being removed. That makes it seem like there is only one kind of thought allowed on topics such as this.

I think this is really nice of the mods. I don't get why so many people hate equality.
1 -Jaws- 2019-04-01
This thread is fucking trash. Fuck all these people.
1 morerokk 2019-04-01
There's nothing "nice" about it. The mods are using 2 year old and heavily downvoted comments as an excuse to virtue signal.
1 M3mph 2019-04-01
All drama is equal!
1 Melanjoly 2019-04-01
I bet those mods are sat in their lairs fully believing they are champions of the people standing up to the rest of the world who are out to get them bless.
1 BeastRBunny 2019-04-01
Why are all reddit mods such massive f****ts?
1 Awayfone 2019-04-01
Jokes are supposed to be funny
1 Ezekiiel 2019-04-01
Read GCJ’s thread if you want a laugh. Some guy was having a crisis whilst reading through the mid abuse lmao
1 MisterEChops 2019-04-01
Rising up against what?
1 DiePunyAlts 2019-04-01
What a resetarded thing to do.

I hate whitey. Let's all join hands and hate in peace and harmony

Social justice is EA confirmed.
1 Roquetteman 2019-04-01
To reward fake OP*. It's just a combined mod account.
1 unstable_asteroid 2019-04-01
For when the mods are to scared to put their own face forward.
1 Roquetteman 2019-04-01
All this post does is say "hey, we're one of the most mature gaming communities out there and we're overrun with trolls", which is a lie. /r/Games is clean as fuck.
Ars Technica has picked up on this story, and of course their commenters are using it as evidence that anyone who's ever picked up a controller is toxic.
/r/Games mods are helping perpetuate stereotypes that anyone with an Xbox is a racist incel. They should be helping to destroy that stereotype, whilst at the same time disavowing trolls.
They should have kept the sub open but had a sticky letting people donate to charities that give games consoles to hospitals.
1 Ferocetis 2019-04-01
Donating to charity so Uranians can get plastic surgery for free. Flawless.
1 fsdgfhk 2019-04-01
Well if the gamers are pissed off, maybe they should have thought of that before they got radicalized by Pewdiepie and shot up a Mosque full of innocent New Zealanders, don't you think?

Tfw you realize that people sperging out in this thread (among many others) was the goal all along. Gj team.

Ban all video game
Hunt down programmers
Gamercide
Problem solved

Ah back to the original meaning of April Fools.
Mocking people for not belonging to your cult.
1 ObnoxiousFactczecher 2019-04-01
This is the first and last time I notice that there is such a thing as r/games.
1 OpticalJesu5 2019-04-01
I don't know if you treat people like children all the time I'd be surprised if they can be mature. This ultimately does nothing but make you look like f-words who can't have any fun.
1 fashionjunker 2019-04-01
What a fuckin nerd essay
1 estonianman 2019-04-01
God damn - I cringed
1 M3mph 2019-04-01
And here's the drama,
OP being a karma farming g-slurring f-slurring c-slur, with all the delivery of a m-slur f-slurring b-slur.
1 liamemsa 2019-04-01
Thanks to /r/games mods for giving us a new copypasta for 2019
1 CLX053 2019-04-01
Unironically one of the best April fools jokes, even if merely an unintentional one caused by virtual signaling.
1 silentbob_ 2019-04-01
fucking losers
1 Frostfright 2019-04-01
April Fools Day jokes are supposed to be funny. Where's the fucking funny in posting a bunch of f-slur charities and telling g*mers to stop being toxic?
good for dramacoin but still r-slur as hell
1 SnakeRattleNRoll 2019-04-01
this must be the penultimate april fools joke. I don't think this one can be beaten. they even say "gamers rise up" for fucks sake, we're being bamboozled. right?
1 wow___justwow 2019-04-01
they're onto us!
1 wow___justwow 2019-04-01
lmao this definitely needs to be a snappy quote
1 Dolphin_McRibs 2019-04-01
It's always transphobia posted first. Anytime I hear about drama in video games, it's always about trans people.
1 KingNothing305 2019-04-01
No it doesn't. Most of us couldn't care less about all that bullshit and just want to play games.
1 13chaggit 2019-04-01
Dramacoin expected to skyrocket tomorrow. Invest while you still can.
I can't wait for the inevitable shitshow that the meta thread will be.
1 EffOffReddit 2019-04-01
Should have been done a long time ago, but this is good too.
1 lLikeStapler 2019-04-01
I wonder what's going to happen next april fools now that they painted a bullseye on their backs. Imagine all those throwaway accounts that will be made and banned because they targeted gamers.
1 NoahHaders 2019-04-01
Unbanned woo
1 HugeBicepsMan 2019-04-01
I want to wake up from the fucking simulation.
1 MG87 2019-04-01
The amount of asshurt this is generating can fuel an OG Hummer
1 rvthlessredditor 2019-04-01
being a good person isnt virtue signaling but i guess it is to the virgins in this subreddit who think doing anything but jerking off over anime and vicariously living thru others is too much effort lmao
1 Cringepilled 2019-04-01
doing this on april fools make it look like they making fun of social justice tho... not Funny and bad taste
1 PM_ME_HAIRLESS_CATS 2019-04-01
Tomorrow is going to be such an epic shitshow I can't wait
