who is DTT? if you are referring to DToast, he posted his full name and where he's from in the very first message he posted here. he doxxed himself.

He says he was doxxed the first hour he took the job, but from day one he was also openly telling the notorious doxxer crew to email him with their "concerns." Fandom has also done 100% of what the doxxer crew wanted them to do. Shut down 261, shut down all "political" discussions, neuter CE. Now they want the mod staff to be replaced. Y'know, the same mods that were also openly smug and celebratory about 261 being shut down. Oops.

I'm not saying that Fandom and the doxxer crew are collaborating, but Fandom really needs to ask themselves why they keep doing literally everything the doxxer crew wants them to do, over and over again.

that's.... not very accurate. they they don't want political discussions shut down, they want to be able to spew their "political" opinions (you know the ones) without fear of repercussion. and they didn't want to neuter CE. they want to post on CE. SMIB was fucking gloating about how he had a new account that was going to soon be able to post on CE again. he was literally counting the days. and then the mods found him out and banned him before he got to 50 karma lol. they want to be able to post on CE and shit it up with all their ignorant, bigoted, anti-science, anti-medicine, anti-intellectual, anti-factual propaganda bullshit as much as they want and never get modded for it.

Nope. As soon as 261 was shut down, they pivoted from "stop modding us for our differing political opinions" to "nobody else should be able to talk politics either." Fandom has literally given them everything they asked for.

Fandom talked about closing 261 before we even knew that they bought GameFaqs, because of their political policy.

LUE went through what CE is going through now, years ago. You had to sign up for the board, before a certain date to have access and then it was locked to everyone else forever

LUE was also the main place where there weren't many rules. Back then you couldn't talk about LGB issues without getting modded unless it was on LUE.

The difference is there was a justifiable reason LUE was locked down, and no other boards were altered at the time.

They didnt shut down LUE with the intent of basically shutting off all the boards though. Its obvious the CE being closed is just another step (not even the first) towards that goal.

One of those guys threatened me with an ar15 in the early days of that subreddit. Then blamed me for getting him kicked off one of the subreddits (which I had nothing to do with). Like the first week of it- mostly avoided it since with 2/3 posts tops. Since then I have created a new Reddit user name for privacy concerns but mostly because people from organizations I am affiliated with (RHA / NEACURH) know my old Reddit name also

Also Im going to add that Reddit is toxic. It encourages conformity within comments. People bitch about moderators here but Reddit mods are significantly worse. Also, if a moderator does not like you and bans you from the subreddit- someone sharing the same IP address posts in that Reddit/bam ur banned site wide and have to use device signature reducing methods to return/waste of time an energy.

But in the end gamefaqs Its like any website, you break the rules you will be banned Gamefaqs did show me significant leniency

The new rules are bad. And some of them are not even rules yet since they haven't updated the TOS but people are still getting hit.

I got hit by what was maybe a new rule and I just disputed it saying I dont accept this from a mod that didnt read the topic and it got overturned

it was only a nwd though. But its definitely the case some mods arent agreeing with others on interpretations of the current rules

Yeah but it could have been Allen or Devin at that time, or there could have been an update in the database that changed the name. A few other boards changed name due to the latter.
