They came at the mods hard with the "you're platforming nazis" pressure tactic. It's one of the most requested games on the site, but will the escalated rhetoric of the pride brigade be too much for RA too handle?

>>940703679

>>940703680
The only jokes that are acceptable are either ones where the punchline is legbutt vibes or chuds dying horribly.

Really, if nothing was said about the set and it just released, I don't think we'd have a parade of internet poisoned dipshits making a fuss out of it. A small handful would say something, performative jackasses would delete their accounts (which some have already done or claim to do), then it'd just disappear in the backlog.

>>940703682

>"Muh censorship"
>Bringing up Sweet Baby Inc. for some reason

Were even a handful of gays that actually got some pussy/dick in their life that just said "Yeah, it's offensive, but it's not really pushing hate speech. I don't care for it, but whatever" that just got buried under a non-stop back and forth of retardation.

It's one of the most requested games on the site. It was bound to get talked about just from being picked up.

>>940703708
I never mentally matured past 17 so that doesn't fucking help me!

>>940703708
Because the "issue" is the site would've been promoting content for the hack period.
ie: As soon as the game showed up in "new sets" that would've been considered promoting it.

And Promotion = Endorsement in their eyes.

It's fucking retarded, you so get dipshits like xkeeper calling the creator of the site (and the mods) a nazi because they didn't immediately ban the game off the site.

Super gay decision in the end, but it's really fucking funny to realize that there's a discord out there right now with a message of "We did it, guys!" and like a dozen trans flag reacts to it.

>>940703715
I've wrestled internally with how gay the concept is since I started my account two years ago, and this whole thing finally made me just delete the whole thing.
It was fun to see what people came up with for sets, and I played a few things that I didn't even know existed because I found it on there, and it was a good way to be inspired to try different things in a game I might not have thought of, but such a harsh reality check of what the other people using the site are like made me feel really, really gay.

They're wiping all comments off the game page now.

Achievements are inherently gay. There's no point. It's literally just "the real fun is showing people online that I did" tier redditor faggotry.

Back in the day, achievements weren't somelittle icon on a profile. They were literal feelings of having achieved something. The first time I got the top high score in a game at the arcade, do you think that meant as much to me as getting my first Xbox 360 cheevo for some stupid near-mandatory action? Of course not, it felt 1000x better. High scores, self-imposed challenges, doing things that are exceedingly difficult that most people have never done; those are real achievements, and you don't need some stupid fucking .png to tell you that you did it. You'll remember it. And if you really want to prove it to someone else, then take a picture (it'll last longer).

I've got news for you, if you're playing a game that you can't enjoy without the gratification of little bubbles popping up and clapping for you, then either the game is shit or you need to stop playing video games and go camping for a few weeks so you can heal your damaged dopamine receptors.

ra has been going downhill for years. I used to enjoy the site a lot but the staff is so incompetent and all the nintenfags joining ruined everything.

>>940703721
>I've got news for you, if you're playing a game that you can't enjoy without the gratification of little bubbles popping up and clapping for you
Every time this argument is had, you guys use it as a springboard for a tangent. That’s not how I felt and I stated why I thought the site had value, so replying to me with all that shit was kind of dumb. I don’t even necessarily agree with you, but every discussion of achievements ends up this way.

Fucking faggots, just deleted my account
https://retroachievements.org/forums/topic/32648

>>940703723
necessarily disagree with you*, obviously

I used RA a lot this last year, saw the community was largely compromised of troons and faggots but didn't think much of it and kept to myself even if I do despise them.

Of course they have to go chimp out and ruin literally another thing I just want to enjoy in peace and quiet on my own, I've literally never had a remotely positive experience with any troon in my life, they are sad and miserable to the core and wish to bring everyone and everything down to their degenerate level.

I realise it's a shitty ass achievement website and I'm overreacting massively but after lurking the discord and seeing the evilness and good old nazi name calling of anyone that actually gives a valid argument I can't be assed with it anymore. I want to tell them how and why all of them are wrong and retarded on the discord but I have irl shit attached on my discord profile so there's no chance I'm risking getting doxxed (which has literally happened according to one of the mods) so I'm blogging here, and I don't wanna get insta banned for "being a nazi" but whatever im done with this shit anyway so that hardly matters.

Fuck the mods for finally having a rational stance on things but backing down because a few bluesky faggots got upset that a game includes parodies making fun of Nazis, they are so fucking dumb and can't even realize that without frothing at the mouth.

RA doesn't want to purge anything. As for the progressives that are escalating them into submission over Clover, many of them are willing to handwave things like Custer as products of their time so long as they don't have any actual traction beyond getting memed on.

It's the opposite, actually.

When are they adding Pokémon Girls Hunter

>massive double standards
Whilst they are at it, they should remove all Pokémon sets because they promoto animal combat which is illegal in most of the countries they are from. Also remove anything that involves combat and fighting even if seen from a strategic or tactical lens. Any games that depict crime of any kind should be banned. Games that show economic improvement with even a vague indication of possible misfortune must be banned too. Racing games have a set ranking system that demeans others and are thusly banned.

Tetris remains, but be sure to remove any achievements that imply a higher score or level are better. Also remove the achievement scores and points as it implies others are better.

I remember there was some achievement on RA for Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 that used the term "tranny", a common term in skateboarding to refer to skating in pools (specifically referring to the transition between the flat floor and the vertical wall of the pool). It was there for years, until some gaylord whined about it and had it changed, even though it's clear to anyone who actually knows shit about skating that it's not meant to be the big scary no-no word. In fact, EA's Skate 1-3 called the pool skating competitions "Tranny Contests".

Send a message to RAdmin politely expressing your opinion on this. One possible compromise that others have mentioned is adding a feature to the site that hides games from view while still allowing them to have achievements. I believe most of the admins and most of the people who actually use RA (not random hostile outsiders on bluesky) don't support this, but it was a decision made under intense pressure, maybe there is a chance they'll change their minds again after things calm down.

>>940703731

>>940703801
Same here, even though I never planned on playing it. I lost interest in pokemon long ago, let alone romhacks.
This is a very damning precedent because the primary argument now is that "having a set implies endorsement" and yet they have had sets for shit like custer's revenge and hong kong 97 for years
so what now? are they gonna crack down on anything reported as offensive, pull sets that have been up for years and void the points of whoever mastered them? or are they going to arbitrarily only ban whatever the loud minority feels like at the moment?
in any case as a top 1% I really don't feel like continuing to use the site unless the decision is reversed, which likely won't happen.
The custom challenges and cheevos were fun, but if they can remove my good goy points on the whims of troons I'll just play whatever on my own terms.
I've been demanding to the admins to remove "offensive" games's sets, partly for fun and partly for the vanishingly low chance they realize how fucking retarded this policy is.

>>940703803
>and yet they have had sets for shit like custer's revenge and hong kong 97 for years

Yeah, while I don't know much about Clover, I think Hong Kong 97 would most probably be more offensive because it has a photo of a real corpse as the game over screen. Like you said, this is a bad precedent now because what's allowed is now subjective.

imagine being this dogmatic and terminally online. kys

From what I’ve gathered so far. Mods/Admins wanted the site to stay neutral and allow anything that wasn’t illegal. Discord/Tranny backlash starts, but they hold their ground. Then the emu/set devs start bitching and threatening a boycott. Mods/Admins panic since the site would fall apart without them. They apologize and ban the game to prevent the boycott, so that the Patreon money doesn’t dry up and the site doesn't die with no way to fund the servers. Now they are losing long term devs who are against banning games for "moral" reasons, which might be enough to get them to revert, or add a system to block games once things die down a bit.
It sucks that this happened, but at least they tried to hold their ground, even though it was only for a couple of hours. I probably won’t be using it much anymore, even though I’m in the top 1%, since any set could be pulled for any reason. Might still check out the Wii launch event, but I’ll see how things play out until then.

Oh no, not the achievements. How else will I validate myself to the other cheapo gamers?

>>940703814
from what I heard, the real problem was Dolphin threatening to pull support, in the middle of the Wii rollout. that just makes it impossible to oppose, even if most of the admins and devs are fine with the game having a page

>>940703763
does this mean "tranny" in the car mechanic sense also a bad word?

I have no interest in this but what's gone on sounds absolutely fucking hilarious.

>>940703817
I didn't know Dolphin devs were fags

>>940703817
Ah that would make sense, losing GCN/Wii support would probably do more damage to the site than just taking down a ROM hack. Lets just hope Clover is the full extent of the damage. I guess we'll find out in the next few months.

Nothing, probably.
Set requests are a meme as evidenced by BF2 being the most requested set by a country mile for years and yet every dev who has gotten their hands on it as dropped.
If anything, jumping from like 7th place to 2nd in a single day is a very loud FUCK YOU to the administration. And hilarious

>>940703824

>>940703836
Also, it is something the admins can't touch, or have actively decided not to touch in the entire history of the site.
Removing the game page altogether or its requests would be a first. If they don't do that in fears of angering the playerbase further, they're going to have to deal with it sitting up there as an eternal reminder.

Problem solved. Give power to trannies to mark games as bad so their sensitive eyes no longer need to look at real games which makes them shut up, and in favor those who want to play the bad games can safely talk in their own bubble with nothing spreading outside.
Sadly even if they went this far to do all of this trannies will still implode if you bring up the game in their Discord, and since that is their holy ground for live discussion that holds way more power over RA itself.

Don't use RetroAchievements myself, just stumbled upon this thread and see myself being annoyed by yet another community these freaks get to ruin for us.

There's also "Achievement of the week", like yeah let me just get my legal copy of Myst on the 3DO real quick.

>>940703846
I checked the comments on Clover's page earlier and I'm not the only one with this suggestion; some people are quoting some of my words verbatim and I see people both for and against the hack's existance on the site agreeing with it.
I don't see why Clover needs to be an exception when other games with similar imagery or graphic content get to be on the site just because they happened to be made by a big developer/team or made 20+ years ago. As stated by some people this would lead to worse censorship on the site which affects everyone long term.

It's really not that hard to implement and it should make everyone happy. They just shot themselves in the foot with that announcement.

>RA is an archival site, we host all content as long as it's not illegal, we won't remove anything just because a few people think it's offensive

I can't help but laugh at how 4chan is still seen as this online boogeyman to the point where they'd do something like this. Unless there's some truth in what the other anon mentioned that the Dolphin devs were the ones who threatened to pull support, then they made the wrong move here.
But I suppose it was an inevitability as the website became more popular. I wonder how long it'll be before the Harry Potter games are gone.

>>940703857
The game page still exists, and its still the 2nd most requested game. 3rd not including wii
If anything the name being purged is going to make whoever sees the most requested games be even more curious about what the fuck happened and read the comments.
If they pull the trigger and purge the page from the site altogether, people are going to demand a firm ruling, which if made hastily could be exploited to dismantle the site by reporting everything.

>>940703845
You don't smoke the butt, you bust many into a tin and roll full smokes from them. Elderly care centers often have lots of half smokes and bars occasionally have full smokes with burned filters because of drunks.

>>940703859
>and purge the page from the site altogether

I wonder if that's even possible.

>>940703841
It's not about personal choice and protecting themselves from things that offend them, it's about thought control and deplatforming offensive material so other people can't consume it.

Autistically curating a spreadsheet to keep track of your backlog and completed games is okay but letting a website do it for you is WRONG. Now delete your RA accounts and allow the terminally online and mentally ill run a fan project into the ground because only redditors care about things, or something.
