I'm just glad I was around for this, I'll tell this story to my grandchildren I will. The great GAF Exodus. Personally, I'm happy to have my gaming news back. I literally don't k ow what's coming out without gaf
1) The site is/was very left-leaning, yes. It appears that it will continue to be, as much as it can. I'd suggest if this is a problem for you then you ought to find somewhere else to frequent.
EA, Anthem and the insane amount of money people are willing to spend in multiplayer games killed mass effect.The site can be credited to ruining a few of my most beloved franchises like mass effect. Karma is a bitch and the site got what it deserves .

I just want this community to keep existing. I don't give a fuck about the mods' life or their scandals or whatever.
This is the best community for gaming news.
Keep gaf alive
There's a huge difference between "left leaning", and what actually went on in OT. I'm a flaming liberal, but also an adult, and there's a very valid reason we (GAF) are made fun for those threads. They read like SJW parodies that the Onion does from time to time. Just nonstop cringe.
OT was a lot of fun from time to time, but IMO, it shouldn't come back in the original form.
Best comment everEven after everything, neogaf is still the best place around for gaming discussion.
I hope not for long since everything was dealt in the worst possible way.
Evilore, here is a tip : pay some PR team. You are seriously needing it.
I do think that would have helped greatly.Even after everything, neogaf is still the best place around for gaming discussion.

I'm sure it was very difficult to find one during the weekend though.
Some better crisis management could have righted the ship
Lol, same, kinda just stared at my phone thinking about the alternatives.... game me chills if we're being honestI'm just glad I was around for this, I'll tell this story to my grandchildren I will.

Nothing stops the train yada yada ... Yeah you get it. Let's hope GAF can get out of it much stronger than it was before. The slogan is still BELIEVE
Please tell me this is a joke post, I can't believe somebody actually thinks like this.
I couldn't agree more. So much of that shit was just, well, unbelievable. I'm glad to see it gone.There's a huge difference between "left leaning", and what actually went on in OT.

I hope people decide to focus on gaming and posting about gaming. We are seeing right now that the site is back that there are those that want to post bull shit and are asking to be banned. Why just not post, delete the link, remove the password from your cookies and be done with it? If you have an issue with someone, send them a PM, no need to post shit in the forum..who/what area you benefiting by doing that? As said, if you don't want to be here anymore, don't come here.
To me, I always came here for the gaming side of things, I rarely every posted in the others parts of the forum, if we can just get back to talking about games, even system wars, it would be great.
Glad to see the site back up and running. It has been my go-to site for news and discussion for years. Nowhere compares. Lots of laughs and great discussion here (and some annoying stuff, too, of course.)
I'm here for game discussion. I never paid attention to the OT politics or social issues threads. I won't miss them. I am not happy with the moderation being anonymous and lacking accountability, but I'm happy that we're getting more focused on games discussion.
No where else was I ever able to find a place with the in depth gaming discussion and obscure threads as I have on GAF. Regardless of what you think about whoever's in charge, the people here are still awesome. It's where I come to get all my news and discuss my favorite games with like minded people. And for that I'm thankful.
I just can't wait until we can get back to discussing games.
I enjoyed it as well, but there's no way its going to go back to how it was.
I haven't read it but if something like that was allowed to happen, then wouldn't the moderators share some responsibility?That being said, there have been some worrying incidents recently on the gaming side as well, like when Shinobi was harassed out of here just because of his optimistic game preview. I think that kind of behavior is not something that happens solely on GAF, but it's certainly become more common here during the past few years.
Okay just read the whole Waypoint story on what happened. WHOA! But it's so terrible sad that things will now be reduced to people saying stuff like that.
It's a sad world we live in where "social justice warrior" is considered a horrible thing.
