i wish they would...It would be just as bad if Sony, or Nintendo's people said such a thing.

It's not about comparing Tylor to Microsoft's people... It was about what Mike Ybarra said, and how it's in bad taste.
He actually confirmed it was about the Yankees:It's not in bad taste. It's just something that you shouldn't say, if you're in his position. Unless you really are referring to the Yankees, which I don't buy.
Nothing.What will the Neogaf mods do now without the one unquestioned semblance of power over others they had on the forums? Burning ants with a magnifying glass is my guess.
Here's my prediction:
1. Malka will release a formal statement Tues-Weds saying the site is shut down, thank the mods, gamers and such. Done. He needs the weekend and Monday to get a lawyer or PR person to write something for him
2. Malka says nothing and the site is down. But 3-4 weeks from now, a buyer comes through and will relaunch a clean GAF in 2018. He needed 3 weeks of quiet time to spread the news the site is on sale
My bet is #1.
Nothing.
They ran for the hills and you won't see these guys anymore.... at least under the same moniker.
Of course, they can try being a mod under another user name. But I don't think any game site will touch these guys if they know they were a GAF mod.
No doubt, at least some of these mods knew what a creep Malka is. But they bolted for the hills only because a direct accusation came out. If nothing ever came out, GAF would be running normal right now.
Going by what people are saying.... IGN, Gamespot, Reddit, Gamefaqs are probably the main ones. Might be missing a few big name sites.This sucks, even though I couldn’t stand all the Microsoft hate and some of the people it was such an active site and great for anything game related. Hopefully it comes back or something similar..... where are all the members going to go? Any other big gaming sites? I only went to gaf and here.

I read most of it. Amazing how many anti-MS related shenaigans there were. And not one involved something against Sony.
Most of the stuff I didn't know about, but not surprised one bit. That Boogie guy took it too serious. He should have known GAFFERS as asses and when they want to be negative they will keep questioning forever until the person fielding questions loses all energy. No answer will suffice.
A stupid tactic that has been a NEOGAF staple for 10 years. Best thing is to ignore those tards and move on because no answer will ever work.
It's a no win situation because if the person actually does answer questions, GAFFERS will keep re-questioning, and ultimately not believe the answer.
But then if the guy calls it quits and doesn't want to keep answering questions, the hive mind will proclaim he has something to hide.
Can't win when you got 1,000s of them backing each other up.
Confuscious say : If Microsoft adds lootboxes to a game and there's no neogaf around to declare it 'draconian' does it make a s*** load of difference?
That sounds too mandatory.Too late, they're called req packs
They're working on it. Something should be revealed shortly. We hope.
Apparently there is plans from the GAF discord to launch a new site tomorrow called....Reset Era. That's extraordinarily dumb.
No.Looks like some people are working on a solution/new forum or something kinda fast...a lot of surprised Gaf posters seeing the site down today,gathered up on a forum I personnaly never heard of but it looks pretty good,there's a huge thread about it there...I'll post the link if its allowed.
gaf needs to stay dead, no matter what the form. It's demise is due primarily to its own failed values system.Allrighty then ,no problem.
