Yea exactly, its the communities efforts trying to legitimize melee as an esport which makes it a sad sack case. People play alot of old fighting games and have a great time, even occasionally play in tournaments, but making them an Esport is just hubris. Melee is almost a twenty year old game superseded by newer…

Alot of people think the legislation that Obama passed right before he left office alleviating some of the burden for the ACA (affordable care act AKA obama care) was thanks to trump simply because the legislation activated after Douchenozzle trump took office.

Standing by and being complacent while your fellow man is being trampled because you can enjoy all the benefits of being white is what makes you accessory to the cause. Did you know American troops forcibly marched German citizens into Nazi death camps to witness the horror and terror they let fester in their own…

Clearly you didn’t read the article. Also, generally when discussing standards and practices / ethics of a community it’s better to have multiple points of view so that there’s alot more accessibility for everyone one. Having MORE accessibility doesn’t hurt people. Having a woman on the team can lend a hand with…

The scene is dead. Melee doesn’t attract new players. It’s the same for all the old 2D and 3D fighters in the past. The community at large has moved on, those games attract very few if any new blood and so they became living fossils. If you’ve never owned melee before 2017 it’s highly unlikely you’re going to get into…

Nothing he said was inaccurate. People running mom and pop tournies in the basement doesn’t count either.  

Alt right is a parasite and 4chan is the host. Certain parts of the body have less infection than the others but the patient as a whole is still very much sick. /b/ is the center point and that’s radiated out to the rest of the website. I stopped going to the website as a whole because I refuse to give ad revenue and…

forgot about /b/ and /r9k/ alot of boards have alt right assholes crop up. Even the LGBT boards that get raided by alt right. Alt right kinda out right dominates that place.

Because 4chan originates alot of the hateful content you see on other corners of the internet. Most of the alt right memes start there. They also organize alt right events from that board making it a hub for that sort of activity, something that youtube doesn’t really do as much given the limitations of the platform.

Couple of issues I have with this whole situation. Also for some context I really despise pewdiepie (even before all of his racist BS) and despise him even more now because of all of his racist faux edgy content so let’s get that out of the way.

I mean, not like I outlined some VERY specific examples of why there were so few people coming out to vote

Flip side is at least when it comes to gays is that not all gays know about what they can do or more importantly want to risk outing themselves and potentially jeopardizing their career or life by assisting with those causes openly. .Many states don’t even have protection against discrimination in place for LGBT…

Well there’s also all the gerrymandering and disinformation going on. The smear campaign against Clinton didn’t help things either. I’m hoping it’s not insurmountable but people are pretty damn complacent and easy to manipulate and the more difficult they make voting procedures the less people will come out to swing…

Not sure what you propose we do. The foxes are guarding the hen house now. People were too stupid to listen. Ultimately the battle wasn’t lost in the streets, it was lost on facebook, 4chan, reddit. Trump is the Twitter-Verse champion, the president of social media. Media in general gave him so much coverage and power…

I mean when you;re working a shitty walmart-esque job and you need those hours and you have a choice between getting paid to feed kids, pay rent etc. or take 2 or 3 hours off of work, what do you think people are gonna pick? Voting is easy for you if you’re white, have a cushy 9-5 that let’s you take off whenever you…

He doesn’t even understand what he’s saying so how could you ever hope to understand ?

Number 1: That’s not what she’s saying AT ALL so not even sure why you’re taking the argument in that direction.

weird, this whole time i thought Kotaku was written by one giant shub niggurath like entity spewing at hate for things I like and SJW treatises. Who knew kotaku wasn’t a monolithic entity controlled by a hive but a collection of individuals with their own opinions and likes and dislikes. My mind has been completely…

Those are all platinum games that’s why. Anyone that isn’t platinum somehow fucks up PC ports Royally. Rising is also the only the game out of that list that wasn’t ancient by the time it was ported.

virtually impossible unless you really cock it up by crushing it toward one side. I get cobblers can have issues if they have poor quality. I’ve used some really shitty cobblers before that had bad seals but boston shakers are at the apex of the design. They have no real downsides. Only thing that could really be…
