They may try to bring their site back from the death, they can try creating a new site like ResetERA, they can try fleeing to other sites that are willing to spread their asses open to them like Giant Bomb and cuckchan, it doesn't matter, they've already lost.
NeoGAF was known for being a safe space discussion site where developers and insiders from the industry who wanted dissent-free shilling quality discussion could post on. But since this whole controversy started, many companies and regular users have gone "elvilore is a rapist wtf i hate neogaf now" and jumped ship out of there, some of them even celebrating its death. And now that they have lost their "important forum" image, no more devs will give a shit about them, their best leakers and OT makers will leave, and unredeemable gaffags will keep on REEing on their wasteland of a forum.
As an important bonus, NeoGAF was also the biggest containment zone for SJWs and as evidenced by ND, YL, etc. they were responsible for involving games in politics, so not only companies will look at this and other past disasters and stop listening to NeoGAF, but they will also realize that pandering to SJWs only does more harm than good and their voice will become irrelevant in the industry.

Yep, the other day when I was over there reading, I thought to myself the 'Cult of NeoGAF' is dead now. It's been on life support for a while but people insisted that it wasn't and NeoGAF was still great. Now everyone nows the owner is a raging hypocrite and a dumbarse and the little slogan that used to sit on top of the forum was always bullshit. There's no denying any of that and it's what we've said here for years. How's it feel to know we were right, bitches?
Anyway, I think it's time for me to take a vacation for a while. Posting here with you guys for the better part of 3 years has been awesome.

That place will end up far worse then GAF ever was once the mods and admins get comfortable and that won't take long at all.
