So within a span of just 4 years, somebody spun off from neogaf, created a new forum, and was able to sell it for $4.55 million

[jehurey 3,230]

It pays to remove bitter posters from your forum, it appears.

 

The leftover townies at neogaf are, predictably, taking this well.

Wow now the forum will probably hate him, after all, they claim no one needs millions of dollars.  

[TLHBO 2,162]

Those comments seem a little short sighted.

 

Ads and subscriptions (lmao at forum subscriptions), also Resetera is rife for shilling and astroturfing. Gaf/reset has always had a lot of that. The schmuks that post there probably don’t realise how much they’re being played.

 

Does anyone remember just before the x1/ps4 launch when that clown from Microsoft was telling people how games were going to be better on xbox one than ps4? And that the pre-release impressions were all bullshit and people would see the evidence on launch day?  Of course when launch day comes and xbox games are 720p and ps4 games are 1080p he disappeared never to return again but anyone that called him out on his bullshit was banned. The elf at gaf doesn’t give a fuck, the troons at retardera don’t give a fuck, they’ll let anyone shill if they can make a buck from it.

 

Luckily systemwars is too small time to be full of shills but it was nice of Microsoft to send us some representation in the form of JonB and DynaFlop.

You are completely insane. This goes from talking about the sale of a forum to you losing your mind about Xbox and Microsoft out of fucking nowhere lol....

 

You've got issues dude.

Resetera users and mods got shilled hard 

 

Slave labour mods and a forum started "for the community" then one owner sitting in the background walks away a multi millionaire

[Mr. House 3,371]

I still don't get why these forums are so popular. They are terrible places to talk about gaming.

 

Haven't clicked on a NeoGaf link in years. I don't even want to give them the traffic. 

 

I think I checked ResetEra once or twice. I don't give a shit.

The guy is a legit genius. He knew how valuable gaf was and at the first chance jumped on the opportunity to create a new version of it while convincing the crazies on there to leave and join resetera. On top of that he basically paid the mods/admins nothing in the name of the forum being a community run endeavor.

 

Hes made his millions and will probably never be heard from again.

People over there have what seems like commonly been outed as or associated with pedophiles. This is you being ultra leftist right now trying to protect your own, you should really shut the fuck up.

My apologies Deeno I didn’t mean to hurt your fee fees.

 

It was just an example of the kind of shilling and corporate sponsored bullshit that goes on over on those forums. That one was the first to come to mind because it standa out the most, but since microsoft seems to do the most astroturfing it was inevitable they would end up being the most notable for it.

Not surprising at all for a forum that glorifies socialism and communism.

wait a minute, that post talks about people who were "pedo-minded"

 

you guys said there were actual PEDOPHILES..................being a pedophile is, y'know, an actual "act" that a person commits.

 

WHO are those pedophiles.

 

And where are these people from resetera defending them.

 

And secondly.............that talks about a separate Discord server that had ZhugeEX, Emily Rogers, ......................are we to believe those are representative of ResetEra?

 

I mean, weren't they well-known on their own before the forum even existed?
