I found it interesting to get updates and have discussions. Why did they get rid of it?

No idea. It's not like ce is any less hostile or toxic. They just didn't suck up to the mods as much over there.

The corporation decided a board focused on politics was out. Something about not wanting anything "divisive". The full statement was just a bit longer than this post.

Fandom apparently stated their intentions to eventually close down the Politics board the day they acquired gamefaqs, and they finally pulled the plug on it without warning.

It was a toxic environment full of hateful people. I was personally harassed and cyber bullied there and am happy it closed so that it cant happen to others.

Oi, oi, oi...

How rude!

I have feelings you know? One can't preach against "cyber bullies" and then in the very same post throw out cyber punches all willy nilly like that.

Not cool my dude.... Generalizing a group of people, and punishing them all for the actions of some.

Ignore this guy. He was rightly mocked for his election denying and antivax bullshit

Last topic he was confronted with proof and he ran away crying

I got called out for supporting "those" conservative views so I was the real victim.

I guess if you insinuating I'm a hateful person is not "mean," or hypocritical of you to say, I don't know what to tell you.... self reflect a little?

I mean, as a 261er... how should I take this. A form of love? Like tough love maybe?

Didnt say you specifically, but I stand by my statement that yes there were hateful people on that board. Youre not one of them, and I think thats awesome.

Unfortunately yes, there were many and its for their own good that the board was closed. It was only encouraging poor decisions and behaviors.

Oh that topic. Yea that was full of hate and Im done with that. I left that topic and never looked back. Didnt read any more messages there so if anything happened Im not aware. But didnt run away just distanced myself from negativity. Which Im sure disappointed some because people just are obsessed with me for some reason.

Like generalizing a group of people lazily like you did?

You should practice what you preach and try not to be toxic yourself. Makes sense yeah?

There were people there that didn't contribute to the "hate." I'm not saying it was perfect, just saying it wasn't "full" of hate either.

For sure man I hear ya. But again, I stand by what I said. Were all the people bad there? No, you were there and youre a fucking badass. Were a lot of people there hateful and bullies?

Fuck yea they were, and I know a badass like you doesnt stand for bullying so that we can both agree on. So yea, board is better off closed where me and you can go be our badass selves and not have to worry about that hate.

Saw that screenshot, and if you have it youre welcome to post it again. It was not anti vax. And it didnt even mention the election so I dont know where youre getting that from.

But I will say that if you start harassing or bullying me I will report that and leave this topic.

Stalking me is though. I have talked to a personal friend who also happens to be a mod and they have assured me stalking is not tolerated.

I am leaving on friendly terms with you but please do not chase me down and stalk me in other topics asking me to respond to previous topics. Nor @ me in this topic. I will not respond nor will I continue to monitor this topic.

I hope you all have a wonderful evening and with that Im off to bed, good night everyone

translation: "don't call me out when i lie about what i posted"

that ain't it chief. if you don't try and lie about your anti vaxx/election denying posts people won't be compelled to tell the truth. it doesn't come off as credible when you try to make victim noises and if you lie about what happened on 261 you will likely keep getting called on it.
