They don't like me very much over there so I wasn't very surprised. Probably had about ten bans or so all told. Was only back from another ban about two weeks before that for taking the piss out of Solar Puffin. I noticed he was quick to dance on my grave in my breakfast thread the cunt. all because I called him a mewling half-man.

Ah welcome back dude! Dinnae know it was you.

 

[SoggyBiscuit]

There are literally no words for how ridiculous those bans are. Their echo chamber will eat itself.

I guess it speaks to a certain level of immaturity on most Era users part that they're unable to entertain opposing or differing opinions without reacting as they do.

Immaturity is a good word. They are all sheltered man-children told that they were special when they were younger and that whatever they are feeling is perfectly valid and they never received any criticism.

I was keeping a low profile but doesn't seem much point now

Likely doesn't help that they've spent years within safe spaces or posting on message boards never having their views or opinions challenged in any meaningful way. So when the real world comes around it probably knocks them on their arse.

 

[Charles Brandon]

A few years ago there was a big fuss about students 'de-platforming' speakers at their universities and dissenters arguing that it would lead to a narrowing of views and experiences. And here we are, a generation of kids and young adults who can't cope with people who have opinions that differ from whatever the ultra-woke consensus is on any particular issue.

 

[Charles Brandon]

It's causing real-world problems. Here in the UK we have got lumbered with what looks like an almost invincible yet incompetent ruling Tory party simply because a bunch of idiot children decided that it was more important that Labour was ultra-left-wing than it was to find common ground, build consensus and win elections. And look where that got us. People won't vote for you if you are calling supporters of your own party 'racist red tories' simply because they don't think Jeremy Corbyn is a good politician. Not to mention the gall of doing that while at the same time being led by the nose into antisemitism because you have not the wit to see through the people you are arselicking.

 

[Ionian]

Look at Ireland, can't even form a government, because of the same.

gay marriage happened first as a state by state thing, starting in 2004, during the start of W's second term. but LOL at trying to claim it would have never happened without Obama. double LOL at this person spreading revisionist history being a moderator.

 

[nush]

Thanks all

It wasn't that long ago people wanted you to come back here. Awesome return.

 

[SoggyBiscuit]

Thanks all

Cheers Geoff.

What do you mean it started as a state by state thing in 2004? California passed Prop 8 in 2008, amending the state constitution to ban same-sex marriage. The only thing that was happening state by state in the early oughts were statewide bans, opening them up to legal challenges, eventually culminating in the Supreme Court deciding such bans were unconstitutional. It seems likely that if a Republican (i.e. McCain or Romney) were appointing justices, they would not be for same-sex marriage.

No Obama = no gay marriage isn't exactly a lol-worthy take IMO.

It cracks me up how their mods deal out justice in their political threads. One of them was going HAM on anyone who had something negative to say about Bernie last night. If you look at the last few pages of their primary thread it's all people getting banned for saying he never had a chance.

There's this one mod, Brazil, who seems to be the main culprit. Look at this shit:

I remember him from such threads as the GAF 2016 olympics thread where he got all pissy about people slagging off the facilities (including the green pool). Seemed very precious. Was surprised/not surprised he was made a mod on Re. Does he live in the US now?

My wife and I were considering moving to Australia then I remembered how racist the country is.

I've been to Australia about 6 times in my life, each trip was for business reasons. It's a beautiful country and place someone like me who love animals would love to live in. But each time I went there, I was subjected to racist remarks by people there. I got into a fight on two occasion ...

And this never was for raising awareness on issues or the strive for peace and equality.

This was always about power and control for people at RE and the regressive left as a whole.

I said it here before, and I'll say it again, you spoke the truth in that post you were banned for. No sensible person would have objected to it.

I thought they didn’t “provide him a platform”?

 

[Captain Zyrain]

I was expecting the usual suspects to show up, but generally they all were OK. People even said they'd watch it later.

I guess some real-world crisis is overshadowing their made up issues for once?

It’s almost like the mods make up excuses to censor people. Hmmmm.

Did Nepenthe get promoted to admin after the BDubs racism row? Hilarious that she took the 30 pieces of silver to trade her integrity for a non paying position with her white boss.

 

[Ionian]

Saw that earlier and thought it was weird. Always thought admins would at least be able to code basic scripts.

Very odd, who stepped down?

Sites only going to be worse now, what are they even doing?

Looks like someones gotten high huffing the fumes from a freethinkers trashfire.

Nepenthe is an admin now!? It is utterly amazing how well these people fuck up their own forum. Bravo! Encore!

destroy all white people, melt them down into skittles candies

The user that should be permabanned instead gets a promotion, nothing surprises me anymore.

 

[Lady Bird]

Now they only need to make Excel a moderator.

 

[#Phonepunk#]

everyone currently using a Hillary avatar gets Yas Queen status.

 

[Bitmap Frogs]

Holy shit kill all white babies Nepenthe is now admin.

 

[Dick Jones]

It's like a rogues gallery to rival Batman's. The staff would then have the biggest shower of cunts per square metre if that happened.

 

[Kenpachii]

Somebody should make a account there to start a purity test on the die hard autists on that site. Would be funny to see how they would eat each other and kill the site while at it.

 

[Ionian]

It would be glorious but I think they're not even that stupid.

The number of reports they've made must be a sight to behold.

They generally lash-out in craziness, then retreat until the next episode.

 

[Dick Jones]

A rule of thumb for anyone dealing with Resetera staff

 

[Ionian]

Don't they repeatedly say mods have a discussion to say bans are agreed with. (most likely a lie)

Who does an admin concur with?

This is going to be hilarious.

I guess b-dubbs pennance to the official blackera leader is a promotion

as many have mentioned excel being promoted to a moderator role will almost form the horse(gender pronoun person) of the apocalypse

So I was just ditched midway through a date

So I was talking to this guy the past 5 days and we were video chatting for hours on ends, having really good conversation and all that. Today was our first (and guess last date) and it was going really well. He lives an hour and 50 minutes away from me so he literally drove all this way for the...

>guy skypes with random date and agree to meet
>guy brings him over to his place which sounds like a tip
>guy gets a phonecall from "friend" who says her cat died and wants him to come meet up with her
>guy leaves date 30 mins in
>guy calls Ree user and tells him he found his place "jarring"
>Ree user wants Karma to kill this man for ditching

Lmao yes its this guys fault that he doesn't want to cuddle with you in landfill

Edit: this response killed me
