blcdude1 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 To be fair, there's a lot to be upset about. You heard about the accusations involving Michel Ancel? All the news that's been coming out of Ubisoft these past couple months, it's been wild. Link to comment

Twitter reminded me nsider2 existed, then I went there and got sad and decided to see who was still here. Also wow, the current avatar upload sure does ruin quality =[ Edited September 27, 2020 by Juni Doc Brown and April 2 Link to comment
April Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 it's not bumpin the way it was in the early days of this place, but that's how forums goes nowadays. we're still vibin' tho even though i was on NS2 on and off myself since '08, i don't mind that's everything's on a fresh site, really. just a shame it had to happen the way it did.

Juni Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 It's a shame but understandable, part of me misses the community of forums but it's hard to compete with the other forms of social media. I'm still surprised ns2 is still...up....damn cg was so dumb. Link to comment
April Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) i personally find this place very relaxing and enjoyable compared to social media. obviously i use it, too, but it's so overstimulating and frustrating at times. not to mention you have to deal with the absolute worst people and their garbage even if you make deliberate efforts to avoid them. and the constant redesigns that prioritize engagement and ad metrics over usability or... even general site features. the massive userbases could actually be a boon and not have so many drawbacks if there weren't so many demented changes in the name of ad revenue or whatever. the really sad part is that i don't even have to name a specific one for everything i'm saying to be accurate. discord's a nice in-between for the most part, provided you aren't on large servers, but i appreciate ninfora for being low-key. i've never really taken a break from posting here even though i did that all the time on NS2, sometimes for really long periods of time. NS2 even looked the same up until either this year or last year, idr. just like a weird ghost town. a few people here would check it occasionally to try to point stragglers towards this site. but then it got hit with that disgusting forced tapatalk redesign that's happened to so many forums for... whatever reason. i'm surprised it's still there too.

The problem is there are gamers and there are gamers, and I should know that gamers means gamers, rather than gamers. Or I need a better word, because I don’t want to say “gamers” in quotes. Can I just say assholes? Assholes are upset? Link to comment
April Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 it's like nice guys. you just gotta work around it. lol Link to comment
Tyranogre Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 While we're at it, the term "SJW" no longer means anything because it's no longer possible to tell whether someone's using it to refer to someone who wants to ban porn, or to someone who's opposed to genocide. Link to comment
blcdude1 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Yeah, it is so weird to hear someone say "nice guy" in a completely unironic fashion, when they're actually talking about a guy they think is nice. Link to comment

blcdude1 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I think it has one consistent meaning: person I disagree with. Link to comment
