Failed to learn from the mistakes of the past, and that further restricting posting on a dying website is a bad idea. Just wanted to say the past 24 years have been real everyone. <3

Yea, I figured my time on GFAQS would come to an end someday, but I was genuinely surprised it was going to be sooner than I thought.

Not that I'm in total agreement with the changes
But if you believe that new people weren't coming to the site/CE, and you can still post on CE same as before, what's the problem? That if you get purged/banned you can't come back?

Edit: And if this is actually just about the softcore porn then 4chan and Reddit are infinitely better for that anyway.

They're not allowing any new users on CE any more. Ever.

So no more 50 karma chud trolls shitting up the boards.

And if you get purg'd you lose access to the CE board permanently, so finally those accounts who have had approx 600 shitzillion purgs due to their "conservative views" will be gone too.

I'm genuinely baffled as to how this is not a good thing.

It's not that hard to follow the rules and stay out of trouble.

They clearly want to kill off this board but don't want to make the "drastic" change of completely killing it. Probably don't want the risk of a total backlash. So they're going to kill it slowly as CE isn't in line with their vision of how the boards should be

It's like this. Once the first round are gone. The next round will start. Look at a pyramid and getting rid of the most bottom. A new bottom is created. Until you are only left with nothing and the pyramid is gone.

The rules today will change with the rules of tomorrow. Everyone can't walk on eggshells to stay out of trouble. Only takes one person on a bad day and they are gone.

If it happens, it happens.

I've spent years here, but if the hammer drops I'll just find something else to do with my time.

Part of the problem was that there were waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many accounts allowed here that clearly had nothing better to do with their time than troll CE with a rolodex of alts.

The chuds being gone isn't a bad thing, but there's plenty of non-chuds who got into the suspension cycle just from things like pushing the limits a bit in the meme topics too many times. Personally I have no real desire to see people like that kicked for good.

At one point you were a new user too. There has been a few new users that have come across here from other boards within the last few years. This move guarantees CE's death even if it's good in the short term. Their new policy also bans politics from other social boards, many of which were more civil than CE.

Softcore porn? I had a topic specifically about modestly dressed women deleted this morning and was told any pictures of people could be considered objectifying.

That was never fine. There's no way they would know anyway if something was leaked.

Let's be real though. Anybody who still wants to be a mod after what they did has no integrity at all.

Him being banned at the same time as TRC is very suspicious since pretty much everyone has been just getting purged recently. Even if he did something unmodworthy youd think hed just get demodded. Even mods like bover and Sashanan were just demodded.

Yeah I don't think there has ever been a mod who went straight from mod to banned before now. Even that pedo mod a long ass time ago I don't think got banned and demodded at the same time.

Not to mention Swordmaster is the last user I would think of to get banned or demodded.

Yeah, and with TRC apparently being banned for leaking mod info, Sword mightve been the source, whether willingly or not.

Anyone can share what they found on other sites. Would only make sense to ban him if he was the source.
