Journal of Other Forum Analysis (Volume II, Issue 2)

[Boredfrom]

Is not even a good Sony/PlayStation forum.

I know that there is a strong, rightful sentiment around the US' collective responsibility for the situation we're in. I am also aware that no matter what I do, no matter how decent I act, no matter what I accomplish, that people will look down on me for being an American based on the actions of our Government, past and future.

 

This kind of thinking is such a pathetic form of self flagellation that still surprises me that ERA allows it or CanuckERA don’t call out (even if they are into it).

You fuckers are not helping anybody with this shit, in fact is the kind of stuff that Magatards laugh about (not being better).

Such an evil entity that they call America.

Sick rogue state
Sick leaders
Sick people

I want to reference this all the time but I imagine people will think I'm actually trying to make a bet with them.

At this point I suspect people just get off on making posts like that

Is this permission to boo, at the very least, all Muslims countries and China?

That's something only Bad Guys would do.

not just muslims and chiner

I knew I never liked Jackass for a reason. But honestly, unless someone is vocally progressive, I just assume they are dumb/MAGA now.

It wasn't sticking leeches in their eyes or putting kites and toy cars up their butts.  It was the clear conservative bent the show promoted.  Right before this sketch they said, "This is what lubruls are doing to our men and boys."

That big bitch with the peg leg in the new horizon slop game is unreal. 

I swear there was some other failed slop game that had a near identical giant fat woman?

look, if there's even a 1% chance of you making a bet with someone, we have to take it as an absolute certainty

Games in the second half of December would still be eligible for the following year.
Something is clearly missing, as the number of posts in the results thread has been constantly declining since 2017. It's only 3 pages at the moment.

yeah, posting activity has declined in general for a lot of different reasons

https://www.resetera.com/threads/resetera-games-of-the-year-awards-2025.1415539/page-4#post-150815455

Gotta love how they have to dance around it because if not it'll be an instant month+ vacation.

The mods and their clique of mentally ill forum activists ran most of the userbase out of the forum. That's why threads are much smaller on era nowadays. NPD threads, game show threads, game tournament threads, etc used to be way way bigger.

The sonypony mods on gaming side cleared that place out of any dissenting voices. 

I imagine whatever ad revenue era's masters make nowadays must be a tiny fraction of what it was pre-2020

A lot of gaming threads have similar amounts of activity on GAF and Era now. 25 vs 28 pages on Hunters Gathering for example.

The funny thing is Era will agree that activity has dropped precipitously but will blame bad actors causing various communities to leave in droves and that if they just ban harder it’ll get better. The fact that they banned anyone interesting, fun and creative is a coincidence.

No other poster is needed when you have Jeff

[Nintex]

Jeff Epstein? The New York Financier?

Lots of people calling Post a Culture Vulture. Are black people doing country also culture vultures or is that something that's only a thing when a white artist tries the sacred art of hip hop?

[Uncle]

why are there so many fucking Jeffs? there's also Bezos...

Malone is 100% a culture vulture. 100%. One of the very very rare situations where era is correct.

I'm not even a fan but why is a bad thing when a white artist like Eminem or Post Malone does rap but okay when Beyonce does country? Rap and hip hop aren't a sacred music genre

[Besticus Maximus]

That post malone dude has never done anything interesting other than cover better songs

[Kyon1988]

I'm not a fan either. It just annoys me how Era has elevated a certain music genre to something it's not. I remember someone getting a perma ban for only writing they dislike hip hop.

It's only a thing when a talentless honky tries the sacred art of hip hop because their butt rock sucks and they've run out of ideas.

[Uncle]

are you guys saying the world was better pre malone

[Polident]

That post malone dude has never done anything interesting other than cover better songs

Rap has a rich history of sampling better music. The only artist to rise above it was Vanilla Ice and the industry shunned him to VH1 reality programming.

Another day, another doops witch hunt thread based on a handful of bluesky posts. No further context, no further commentary.

The comments are giving me a chuckle

Everyone out here be smirking like a Dreamworks character

And half the posts are "Fuck this......*insert topic of OP*", drive by posts. They can't even be bothered to say what exactly is wrong with person/game either.

If you took out all the drive by and virtue signaling posts you'd have even fewer pages.

The banning will continue until morale improves

Marathon may flop, but is not Concord levels of cringe design wise.
