Posts do get pushed through, its just been a period of heavily increased traffic the last week or so, and many instances have had to tame measures to stay online at all, which in many cases has broken or slowed down the propagation.
These are issues that will be resolved in time
Is it our property though?
Intellectually speaking yes, but legally speaking? Probably not. Chances are if its stored on their servers, it belongs to them.
Not familiar with the gamefaqs community, but the others probably have a fairly circular Venn diagram between those angsty teen boys and gamers. Especially 4Chan. Twitter lately has been embracing the alt-right that fosters those angsty teen boys as well.
Maybe in wrong, I dont know. From my personal experience at least, which is being a male thats played video games since before the turn of the century, I dont see any of the people I play games with or have played games with over the last few decades holding these types of views. That may just be down to who I chose to play games with though.
My wife doesnt play much anymore, but she used to get the whole “woah a grill in my game?” Thing, but it was usually harmless and didnt go much further than those initial comments.
I dont know if its actually still happening or its just an easy headline that appeals to peoples stereotypes.
Gamers is such a broad label that encompasses so many different demographics. Im sure there is a tiny, vocal, weird subset that is convinced that gaming is for men, but its certainly not representative of the gamer label as a whole.
A headline having a go at “gamers” is easy, because its not really representative of anyone in particular. I have no doubt that some angsty teenage boys have these opinions, but thats a small group within the gamer label.
People might find this link handy. It shows a list of the subs that have committed to the blackout and shows when they have gone private
Would be sorted out in minutes.
Everything posted/done on reddit is stored. If a mod/mod team goes rogue reddit removes the mods and hits the big “go back an hour” button, installs some new mods and most people wouldn’t even know something happened
“Official” is such a strange term and im truly looking forward to the end of the “migration” period.
I get that people want a similar experience to their reddit feed, but I dont understand why people see reddit affiliated communities as the best options.
At some point its better to just tear the bandaid off.
