That's fine, just try to stay friends.

We value you all here, you're our gaming brothers.
Actually I was sorta half joking. In hindsight the way I wrote it made it look like I was organising it.
But hey, if people do want it... 🤔

i got an invite from @Bo_Hazem last night to discuss politics

His channel was called Friends of Furries, I decided to not join.

Apparently, some of our local icon members like @TubzGaming @Papacheeks @Nym @Swift_Star and @rofif had already joined up

Oh I've seen that place, at least they know what they are, they set up the place to be that.

Reset used to be great for PS and Nintendo fans but now it's just another Xboxera.
Reset was never good for anyone. It was founded by the most toxic element of GAF and was filled with assholes and idiots form the start.

Sadly, I’m seeing more and more of them crawl back to GAF these days.

I always wondered if this site was inspired by XboxEra at all

Its funny because I see Xbox fans on Dpad who seem to think Gaf/Reset are Sony biased

I dont understand any of it really, but its interesting how each fanbase views the sites in favor of the competition

Except there's proof that resetera mods are pro-xbox influencers on the level of colt eastwood. Show me a reseteda mod that is being sent merch and swag regularly by sony, or posing at fan events with sony executives and PR teams. You can't.

I dont stalk Era mods one way or the other lol

Eh, they are proud of their affiliation / awards and so on... no stalking is really necessary. It's shared, people make note of it and it spreads through each community naturally. Over time it becomes common knowledge...

When Reset started, most of the founders were PlayStation or multiplatform gamers.

We set up this place in response to a wave of Neogaf bans of PS fans and then Resetera also leaned the same way soon after.
Microsofts influence globally is undeniable and we get many sign ups from the Redmond area and a lot of our views are also from Redmond, we have no doubt that even though this is a small site, they do not like the fact they cannot control discourse here.

Much like The Matrix, people should always use the internet to give a middle finger to the man and Microsoft is "the man" IMO.

Isnt Playstation kicking Xbox's ass though?

How can the underdog he the oppressor?

Microsoft is a trillion dollar company that just bought 2 entire, huge publishers and subsidizes every aspect of their gaming,

It is David vs Goliath and just like the fable, David is kicking Goliaths ass.

Would your rather it was the other way around?

Like in football... there are teams that have all the money, all the most expensive players, the best equipment and stadium... but they can be beaten by a more skillful, passionate and hungry team.
