That's actually not a surprise, moderators and admins are very cushy-cushy with the game "journalists". Wouldn't surprise me if some of the mod team are part of that cute little club themselves.
However, the total ban against anyone talking against acquisitions feels 100% corporate. Which, in the whole spirit of Era's supposed transparency  is very funny. B-Dubs, if you're reading this thread, mind telling us who higher up in the management chain at Microsoft is calling the shots about that? For a friend?

I'll be the judge of that. I apologize my Bire companions, but what is this new “judge” dogwhistle the wrong thinkers are using now? I missed a few episodes of The Era Show during the holidays.
I think that's the name of a mod, Judge.

Quote:My nephew has been a little shitter lately to his mom and family lately. He's 15 with zero motivations.
So he got sent to our house for a few days with no phone (or tv/movies) and has to help around the house. My wife asked him if he wanted to read books and he said he hates reading. So I thought it would be a cool idea to force him to play FF7 and not skip anything for 2 hours. He's never played an RPG let alone a JRPG. Never heard of final fantasy or cloud lol.
He did groan about it and said he'd rather watch paint dry.
I will report back 
OP is likely lying and playing classic FF7 but if it's true

Tifa says something like "Stop saying [we won't make it] that or you will jinx us/make it true!" in the JP script.

Most of those game journalists are fucking frauds.
Let me go back to playing my Switch Pro. Oh wait.
And the one thing they absolutely hate is if you call out their dumb bullshit or hold them to account.
Is blueball really nep? That's like having a celebrity here. I want her autograph

Sadly, it looks like he's just a no-name moderator. I wanted them to be a fun opposing voice, like that Jeff guy who is legitimately insane and would totally come here to defend Disney's honor.
I would be very disappointed in them if Jeff Marvel or Nep joined under assumed names. I like to think they're better than that.

I'm not even entirely sure who the bad guys are. In the summaries I've read everyone sounds kind of like an asshole
Just catching up. Sure, Benji may be an autist, but he's OUR autist
Spoiler: (click to show)(click to hide) And he runs a forum 8000x better than your army of mods, so if he's as bad as you say, how pathetic do all your mods have to be to not come close to measuring up to a single person you think is so pathetic?
But Benji doesn't have 2 other mods to sign off on bans.

Oh well, back to work on Monday. My time moonlighting as a retard is now over.

I don't think bluebell is coming back. Perhaps they/them arent used to pushback and unsure what to do. This place has a 'report' button but it gathers dust.

Wrong. My fury at GameStop for paying me $.37 for Madden ‘08 Xbox 360 yet charging me $7.89 for Gundam Zeonic Front PS2 ( without case) hasn’t lessened after fifteen years.
