You definitely got a ban for posting your gaf username here. Mods watch this place like hawks because we cause them so much trouble by exposing how fucked up they are.
If I were a clever man, which I am, I would start making dummy accounts of users I don't like on gaf, and then say shit on here posing as them. That would throw them all off and they would never know who was actually a real member of gaf or an imposter.

I am not sure, since I checked couple of hours ago and wasn't banned. I checked again maybe 5-10 mins after posting this thread and got a ban. It might be just a coinsidence. Ban message has a link to Putin interview thread.
This is the exact message:
You have been banned for the following reason: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=180149635&postcount=38, Suggesting that gay people want to get beaten up and defending violent homophobia are not okay here. Given your number of bans and general poor behavior, this ban comes with a perm warning. The next will be the last.
Date the ban will be lifted: 10-28-2015, 10:00 PM
It doesn't change things in grand scale, since I think off-topic is a cesspool of cancer on Gaf, better just to avoid it. With GG (which I don't support, same as Anti-GG, I think both movements are irrelevant shit of people who have nothing to do but fight for first world problems to occupy themselves on twitter) that cancer did spread to gaming forums. I just know to avoid anything politics/racism/sexism/GG/Anti-GG related in gaming forums, but it becomes harder and harder when some days everything on gaming side is about sexism/politics/racism in some new game (i.e. Street Fighter 5). Those threads are full of people whose only contribution to gaming side is spreading that shit, trollbaiting and witch hunting. If you look at their profiles with 10-30k messages 95% of those messages are in off-topic. I mean why sign up for gaming forum in the first place, only to talk about pop culture, politics, etc?
Anyway, as I said, I get my daily portion of news, discussion etc on Reddit. If I need to talk about Destiny, I go to Destiny subreddit, if I feel like talking about CSGO then there is subreddit for that. And there is no shilling going around any of those and you are not exposed to unrelated bullshit like GG/politics.

This has Amir0x crying to the mods written all over it. You are aware that he used to be a mod, right? That post has been up for nearly 18 hours, and you know very well that mods were thoroughly combing that thread for things to ban people for.
You made him cry like a bitch in that thread by exposing how American centric his views are and how limited his knowledge is on Russian culture. He was literally linking to instances where fags were beaten up and the people who did it were prosecuted. If Russian was the shit hole that he thought it was, those people would get away with it handily, much like the scumbag muslims do when they rape women and go honor killings. That is truly a lawless, fucked up culture.
After you dismantled his arguments, he will start firing off PMs to the mods to come save him. If he loses the argument, but you get banned and he doesn't, that is a win for him and he still gets to think he was right.

I respect your opinion even though I think its shit and makes you a faggot. Have a nice day.

I'm not clued in on the politics of what all this shit is but I do scroll by and have a laugh from time to time. I gamed a lot when I was younger but struggle with time these days.
But I would love to hear about Russian lifestyle and views. Although I don't agree with everything (who can back any nation 100%?) they do, I have a lot of respect for them. I'm Australian and always imagined visiting someday.
So here's a question: what's the internet like over there and have you ever heard of Vegemite?
[–] Derpcrawler [S] 1 point 4 points 5 points (+5|-1) ago (edited ago)
Depends on part of Russia. Western and Central Russia has excellent internet. Lot of ISPs and competition, which drives quality up and prices down. In St. Petersburg where I lived (I am currently working in China), I had fiber with 100Mbps download and upload for around 35 euros a month with unlimited data, that was in 2009 before I moved to China. Latency was also pretty good, I would get 10-15ms to Scandinavia (i.e. CSGO servers) and 40-50ms to UK. So overall couldn't complain about internet. Eastern Russia is much worse when it comes to internet, some parts of it can't even get landline and have to resort to 4G LTE.
Although 4G is pretty good overall in Russia, most popular 4G LTE ISP - YOTA has unlimited data plans for 4G with very good coverage. Back in 2009 you could get 30Mbps DL and 10Mbps upload unlimited 4G plan with pocked Wi-Fi access point for around 200EUR a year, so less than 20EUR a month. Although if you would to pay monthly, they wouldn't give you free portable access point and you would need to pay something like 25-30EUR a months, which is not too bad for unlimited data 30Mbps. I am not really sure about prices and speeds now.
Now from friends I still in contact with I know they upped the speeds in general and prices went down by a lot due to RUB depreciation. My cousin has 150Mbps upload and download and pays around 21EUR if you convert currencies.
Vegemite - I heard about it. I mean it's pretty common internet meme/joke about terrible australian food. Never tried it myself.
[–] 2628342? 0 points 4 points 4 points (+4|-0) ago (edited ago)
Damn man, Russia has better internet than Australia. Right now where I'm at (inner city of Brisbane) best I can get is 11Mbs down and 1Mbs up. They are meant to be rolling out a National Broadband Network offering speeds up to 25Mbs down and I think it was 10Mbs up. It's such a joke.
What kind of work do you do if you don't mind my asking?
Haha Vegemite is yummo as long as it's with a dairy product like butter or cheese to smooth out the bitterness. Does Russia or China have an equivalent to Vegemite?
I remember playing the original counter strike with Russians and the old Alien vs Predator. Always good fun despite the lag. I'd have google translate open in alt tab so I could learn a few basic sayings and get a laugh out of them.

As an outsider who's never been part of neogaf, and someone who is pretty liberal in general. I have to question the motives of people pushing this insane SJW agenda. I'm not talking about the useful idiots but the bigger dogs. All their doing is pushing moderate people away from the center in either direction. It's almost like this is part of some kind of divide and conquer strategy. I've always believed in the golden rule, but you can't force everybody to adopt your values. Doing so make you an authoritarian asshole regardless of your motives.

Let Kevin MacDonald tell you about the Jews: http://www.angelfire.com/rebellion2/goyim/je1.pdf
tl;dr - Jews push cultural marxism to destroy gentile society
[–] Xennios 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago (edited ago)
Tyler said it already but I'd say it's people still believing in the kind of Marxism that uses divide and conquer as a strategy to destroy Western society and create discord. There are also bourgeois utilitarians who use the world as a chess board to instill their ideas as to how they think things should be, and thus they help keep the masses distracted with identity politics and such. And moderates are useless as revolutionary agents because, well, they're moderate. Most of the changes that people want are radical.

Usually they don't ban right away for posting here, because they don't want to admit they read the site. Beseda just puts you on his list, and permabans at the first opportunity.
[–] ThisIsWhoWeR 0 points 5 points 5 points (+5|-0) ago
While I don't like whole tinfoil hat aspect of "Jews did it all" or straight racism from some people of this place, I get why people would be as racist as possible just to spite Neogaf off-topic community and to be that counter weight to toxic SJW culture and inability to accept any point of view other than their.
Yes, it's hugely cathartic and it pisses off SJW pussies. Win-win.
Some of us might be real bigots, but even so we're way better than the politically correct trash on GAF no matter who you are.
[–] hidden_penguin 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
I think there are very few racists here and a lot of race realists.
If you pay any attention to the news, it's hard to NOT become a race realist. Watching the antics of Black Lives Matter, Ahmed the clock maker, ISIS and other radical muslims, the "refugees" in Europe, etc. makes you realize that there are plenty of problems in the world that the mainstream media tries to sweep under the rug.
[–] Derpcrawler [S] 1 point 7 points 8 points (+8|-1) ago
I am not really disappointed, it's just how things are. You can't apply your culture to foreign one and expect same results as you had. West can bash Russia all they want, but truth is with more bashing of culture and way of thinking, conservatives become even more defensive. It's especially seen in Russia as hypocrisy attack, because close US allies in muslim countries like Saudi Arabia or Qatar would stone gays to death or hang them. In Russia if you are gay you can live in peace, work and even marry. You can't express your sexuality in public and you can't parade, as well as adopt children, yet I think gays in Russia are much better off than gays in Muslim countries. But only Russia gets bashed about gay oppression issue.
So majority see this as pinnacle of hypocrisy and decides they have a moral high ground.
[–] Xennios 0 points 5 points 5 points (+5|-0) ago (edited ago)
Because Russia (in their minds at least) is a white country. That's basically the core reasoning. SJWs despise the West and white people enough that they will excuse cultures which completely take a shit on their supposed values. Islam is the perfect example. Rap (black music) music is another one (bitches and hoes).
This basically goes into cultural Marxism. Blacks and Muslims in the leftist view are useful idiots and revolutionary agents. Their utility as such is more appealing than bashing them for being not progressive enough.
There's a reason these leftists make videos talking about how whites need to sit back and let themselves be exterminated.

Well, something to keep in mind, and something that be a bit challenging to get use to, is to figure out if it's legit racism, or if it's say, just saying shit because it's full of triggering words and saying it because we're not a bunch of soft-skinned children who need echo chambers to function. We've had many times where someone curious asked us how we each actually thought and most of it was just literally the lines of shit like no I just like triggering people. Or, I don't hate black people, just niggers/dindus.
Anyway, for starters, I had a good laugh at how bad you messed with Amir0x even though it wasn't your intent, just he gets triggered.. though the unfortunate truth is you saw that he's part of GAF's protected species list cause he pretends to buy into the usual SJW nonsense. Plus the majority of people don't know about the whole mom beating shit plus other criminal stuff he does cause if you bring it up, it's pretty much an instant ban. But really, you got banned cause you made a presence here. They may have said something, but like others have said, Tyler, and the mods watch this place like hawks looking for something. Also so they can get an idea of when some major shit is about to go down so they can try and shut it ASAP. Still. Nice to have another mind and someone who's willing to speak hang out. You're unfortunately seeing what a lot of us ran into. No doubt you were right when GamerGate is the biggest start of this crap, when Saint Anita-chan's words became scared cause it brings Tyler more money. Anyway, welcome aboard.

You made Amicuck cry, so you get an upvoat just for that.
[–] Derpcrawler [S] 1 point 7 points 8 points (+8|-1) ago
That wasn't my intention, I don't even know the guy, other than he was a mod and got de-modded and that he likes to bring politics into gaming discussion. As I said, I don't often visit off-topics, and all Amir0x gaming contribution I saw was by derailing threads and bringing politics into gaming discussion, like matters of racism or sexism or GamerGate. I never talked to him directly before that interview thread.
Also, I am not sure why people took my experience as personal attacks. I just said how things are and why things are like that, at least to best of my knowledge. Yes, some people thought that it's my personal view and excusing my nation of their views. I never once expressed my own take on things, only thing that was my personal opinion was to Amir0x who said "fuck your people, fuck your country, fuck any people with that views and fuck any country", I just pointed out that large portion of US has exactly same views and that ignoring huge chunk of population in favor or insignificant minority (2-3%) is a bad idea and undemocratic at best. Did I say it was humane or anything like that? No, but things don't work like that in real world.
I think this what got me banned, unless it's me showing up on this forum.
[–] nononanon 0 points 5 points 5 points (+5|-0) ago
You were on the dot, I'd like to think even with our tense relations, Americans and Russians really can be quite similar, and generally more opposed to the toxic liberal ideas from western Europe. You brought sense into that thread, so of course you were dog-piled into oblivion with gif's and ad hominems about how you're a bigot. Who cares, glad to see you don't :)
