Uncle has been banned for posting footage of the clear rape of a neurodivergent disabled woman.

thanks for unbanning me long enough to post the racism above

And yet people doubt that filing tickets to appeal bans is a perfect system overseen by a selfless staff that works overtime to prioritize the community.

Gentlemen, it has been a privilege, and an honour.

Maybe the next place can be worker / poster owned though, eh?

The whole company is worth 460k so that's interesting and gives you a sense of value.

Their revenue is still in the hundreds of millions, so my guess is more a lack of growth across the portfolio? Or at least growth not meeting investor expectations.

[Straight Edge]

The entire company is worth half a mil. Cerium sold resetera to them for $4m a few years ago

[benji]

If you grow, you can be valued on sales. If you don't, you probably won't get that benefit in internet / software. So I don't think revenue is so relevant and they mention cost controls in the PR. Probably not particularly profitable.

Oh yeah, I get that, just saying that stuff is still coming *in,* so operating costs or something else is consuming more than it should

Hecht should apply his world renowned investigatory skills to find out who rode the share price down 97% before finally dumping 8 million shares for 1/5th of what MOBA paid for Era.

[malfoyking]

Well here's hoping it's the last Level 5 game to do well if they keep hyping up AI making their shit.

What a useless worthless retarded asshole. Who says something like that? What a shitty thing to say. Oh no! AI!

[killamajig]

I'd always liked the first one but it resonated heavily on rewatching soon after starting transition, and that only galvanised with TWoW. It's easily my favourite film-wise when it comes to large blockbuster franchises, that's not the largest pool though since Marvel shat the bed and I realised Star Wars gets a hit once every 2-3 tries.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/is-avatar-james-cameron-franchise-anybody%E2%80%99s-favourite-on-this-forum.1393573/#post-149429392

Why is it never adult films that resonate with the trans crowd? It's always cartoon or cape shit aimed at kids that awakens their inner teen girl.

[Snoopy]

I think it mostly applies to the ree "trans" crowd. I've mentioned before how out of touch they are. They never bring up anything happening in trans fashion, art or music unless it's already been widely reported by the mainstream media. It's weird. They never shut up about being trans but they're completely disconnected from the culture. They're like football fans who only watch the World Cup.

own the means of posting

[benji]

Posters owning a forum isn't socialism.  

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

And socialism isn't long-term sustainable at all.  

[Superstar]

I didnt realize dedicated fan forums websites is what they specialized in. Sad to see a further death knell of the much better pre-2012 internet where everything didnt centralize to shitty social media and reddit but that happened long ago anyways, I say as I post on dedicated forum website.

[Mediocre Lager]

My comrades! We must take back the means of posting! Only then can we truly be free. Evil Capitalist Benji has profited off of our hard work for long enough!

Viva la revolution!!

He’s not very bright. 

i heard this exact quote from my boss once

i worked at a newspaper lol

three weeks later on one random day the newspaper was sold and 70 ppl were laid off, no prior notice

i was told the newspaper was profitable

Well sure, I'm not saying it couldn't happen, just saying from at least where I sit, I don't see a reason to panic.

Yeah unpaid volunteers are going to be the first people told about any sale of the site. 

Here’s what ERA staff is going to experience in 2026

[Snoopy]

I think that was actually based on Dub’s life. There was the shower scene when he heard Cerium had pulled off the $4 million heist. Then that scene when moba told him Cerium wasn’t coming back

I don't understand, it's a bit of a simple question really. If Lenin was so horrible, then what would you call someone who openly praised him and dedicated their lives to continuing and advancing his political tradition? Because that's Huey P. Newton.

So, can we say he's also a horrible person who didn't care about human life at all? Can we say the opposite? Or, you know, just call it a day and concur that this is an ahistorical, moralist, false debate


Nothing, if you are willing to remain ideological coherent, position yourself against Newton and the BPP and also openly criticise them, as they were an openly declared Marxist-Leninist organization, as supporters of genocide, ethnic cleasing and imperialism themselves. Shouldn't be too hard

These purity testing bullshit theatrics is precisely why the modern anti-capitalist Left is a fucking joke and parody of itself, and will likely fail to overthrow the capitalist order it decries. It's also part of why the example you are ranting about (Black Panther Party) collapsed, the other part being the FBI.

  User banned (1 week): Trolling and inflammatory commentary

What a fucking mess of a game. Everyone that was involved with this game should be permanently banned from the game industry. Just total incompetence all around.

[malfoyking]

I agree with that ban. Fuck BK. FF15 is a missed opportunity but Its a miracle they were able to save it. And fuck I loved what we got. That campfire scene and the ending are peak.

Conservatives can't just win, they need constant validation that their views and ways of thinking is "right and moral." So even when they win, they can never be fully happy because they see there is always people out there vocally resisting their bullshit (even when it's in vain and ineffectual) and it irritates and bothers them to no end.

Will all posters be entirely equal in ownership or will shares be allocated based on post count? What about junior status? Will all decisions be by majority or consensus?

I like the poster saying Cerium should come back and rebuy the site and sell it again. 

Absolutely but i suspect the former owner could buy it back for pennies then sell it again in the future to a more stable partner. Goodness knows they have the money for it. Just speculation ofc but would you want IGN owning this place or the new slop merchants that own Polygon?

[TylenolJones]

Posters owning a forum isn't socialism.

If they owned it they could end the classism on Resetera. 

tbh i like that aspect. Easy enough to use a work/student email or register a domain, filters out a lot of spam

I mean it's an inherently classist policy. I understand it's benefits but consider all of the working class people whose jobs don't give them a "work email". It's one of the reasons this forum has the culture it does.

I try not to get bogged down in the details. I just assume that after the revolution things will be more or less the same only now I am on top of the social hierarchy instead of you.
