ReasonUser banned (permanent): off-site drama, derailing, harassing another member over PM. Very long history of infractions for hostility and toxic behaviour.
Should we infer that the absence of rebuttal confirms this suspicion?

wait a minute
Curious to hear about the "full story" tbh ?
EtcetEraThreadChina pulls some S+ tier trolling of American diplomats (Anal COVID testing)
ReasonUser Banned (Duration Pending Further Admin Review): Inflammatory Thread Creation: Irresponsibly Editorializing an Article to Spread Misinformation During a Pandemic
"They'll never fall for it."
"But what if we tell them it's a COVID test?"
"You think they're that gullible?"
"They're diplomats, not scientists."
"Let's give it a go!"
Yes, it's a real test, but they didn't have to use that specific one.
EtcetEraThreadBlack, Asian, and other oppressed groups of ERA... let's talk to each other (READ OP)
ReasonUser banned (duration tbd by admin review): Disrupting a sensitive thread about race relations over a series of posts. Previous ban for similar behaviour.
I’m just gonna say it - Black people have just been minding our business and it’s white people and some of the asian community who are responsible for the breakdown in communication. It is unfortunate that they seem more interested in capitalizing on these incidents to spread anti-black narratives/undermine black movements than having the legitimate conversations the outbreak of violence deserves. With that being said, I don’t understand why the black community should bear the responsibility to normalize relations with the asian community who we have always stood up for.

Switch owners have a strong vocal gyro support. Pretending it's just Era is laughable. But considering your avatar it's no wonder you're trying to downplay it
EtcetEraThreadBarack Obama and Bruce Springsteen launch podcast together on Spotify
ReasonUser Warned: Thread Derail
This doesn't surprise me. Really all Obama ever wanted was to be a celebrity, but he just wasn't actually good at anything so he had to get into to politics.
Also didn't Michelle have a podcast on spotify to? Is that still going?
GamingThreadHow do you feel about the term “Boomer Shooter”?
ReasonUser banned (1 month): concern trolling over multiple posts, inflammatory comparison by comparing benign ageism to racism
Right? I don't know why people don't seem to have any respect for anyone anymore.
"Oh but not my gramma she's one of the good ones". Yeah, there's that language again.Discrimination is discrimination. Ironically, GAF/Era taught me that.

ReasonUser Banned (Duration Pending): Trolling; Long History of Severe Bans For Trolling and Using Ableist or Alt Right Language and Memes
This was beautiful, not only did Smash only get about 5-6 minutes of screentime, but it was a character that would trigger Smash fans beyond belief. It was a good day today.

ReasonUser banned (1 month): Dismissing concerns around bigotry, whataboutism
Guessing everyone in this thread who have condemned the game have also vowed never to play a Ubisoft title again?
Only know about Zenitsu, but man that is a fucktard of a charachter. I was screaming at the screen and is also one of the reason so many animes are unwatchable to me (creepy pervs etc etc), but the show is otherwise really good.
Don’t worry everyone, I’m sure that the Biden administration will swiftly act on this and institute a policy of asking every child prisoner their pronouns.

ReasonUser Banned (3 months): concern trolling around sexism, prior ban for dismissing concerns of colorism over a series of posts
That's not what I said at all? I said her points were valid but that not all women share her opinion which is an objective truth as I quoted a woman who liked her design. That wasn't to invalidate her opinion but to reinforce that not everybody shares said opinion.
""
So no, I am not "tone policing", I am just trying to have a civil conversation. Like I said earlier, your points are valid but they're not universally shared with every woman.
Please ignore those misoginyst comments, they have never play the game and they think those characters are sexual dolls becouse of the looks. They are the worse kind of misginyst ppl like a white knight in disguise.

This just rubs me the wrong way. Like, "prime suspects" for what? Being trapped in horrible wet markets and fur farms against their will? It's unbelievable to me these places are even allowed to exist
GamingThreadYuzu (Switch emulator) running Mario 3D World+Bowser's Fury at 60fps day 1
ReasonUser Banned (3 days): Equating emulation with piracy, thread derailing
It comes down to empathy, doesn’t it?
In this thread you can absolutely prove that emulation is legal.
In this thread you cannot prove that each and everybody on the site is legally emulating.
The OT’s for most games around here, you take it as read the people enjoying the game along with you, legitimately obtained it.
You cannot necessarily do that here, in this community, with Switch games. That’s a fact
With the amount of acrobatics we all go through when talking about this topic, no matter your stance, it should start with people recognising some home truths. And how that could in turn make others feel.
As I said, empathy.
Don’t agree with someone? That’s your prerogative. At least consider what they are saying and why, first.
Probably 50% of all Nintendo-related discussion needs to be taken with the grain of salt that we’re all emulating current hardware/software. It’s fine if that doesn’t sit well with someone, surely.

cool but can we please stop pushing back on clearing student debt or health care or or raising minimum wage stimulus checks or stopping deportations or any of this other shit joe biden completely dropped the ball on a mere month in
the democrats are so performative it's kind of embarrassing. not saying this isnt important but its small and only impacts on a federal level. when it has to come to bigger change, its gotta be more than these inclusive gestures that mean nothing for anyone who doesn't plan to work for the government.

ReasonUser Banned (1 day): Console wars
It's pretty good if you didn't own a Wii/U. My Switch would have most likely collected dust if I bothered with a Wii U last gen.Would you like to know? There's so much good stuff coming out on PlayStation and Xbox in the near future.

ReasonUser Warned: Equating Emulation With Piracy
Isn't this thread basicly piracy advice for people? I heard this argument time & time again of peopel that have console X that they wont buy Nintendo stuff but pirate the shit out of them. Most people who used Cemu admitted that they didnt even have a Wii U. Im all in for emulation of old consoles but current consoles and games that arent even released yet? I dont get it. Play it on the system since its the current console. I also dont get why this forum is fine with it at all.
You have all this industry people on here but youre fine with pirated current gen games running on current gen emulators. Nice double standard.
Rent it and rip the game
Rip the game and then sell it back
Borrow it from friends and rip and send it back
Watch lazy town, keep for 24 hours and then send it back
Nintendo is not getting any money anyway =P
