[Censorship] OAG: "N4G Administrator's SJW Bias Gets Exposed And Then It Gets Censored"

"Wow. Just... wow. You obviously don't understand how many people have
to live day by day, what they have to put up with, and how good the
white man has it and will have it for centuries to come"
- Christopher N4G Admin
Absolute scum.
'Wow just wow'
At this point, it is a classic go to line to play up the theatrics and dramatics to prop up a sense of self righteousness in an argument
Each and every time some dickhead comes with that "how good white people have it" line they need to be asked in response how good the white Appalachian poor have it.
Smug, arrogant fool utterly assured of their superior morality.
And they wonder why they get mocked, endlessly and without mercy.
They will just say they deserve it for being racist inbreds.
"Anyone who doesn't like race agitprop shoved in their entertainment is a white supremacist."

That pic you posted just drives me nuts but it explains something I run into occasionally. I even had it happen on this account recently where someone tried to tell me that I needed to have historians explain things to me since my personal experience wasn't enough.
From your image:
A white person is not likely to have a background that is similar to a black person.
Aside from this statement being false it's very telling. This person is unwilling to accept the fact that there are poor people of all races. And if this person would accept that white people can also be poor then his entire argument disappears. Instead of assigning people to groups you'd then need to look at the individual character and merits of people. That's something that this lot of cultists doesn't seem capable of.
Tinypic is a horrible host. Inline hotlinking doesn't work and you don't get a fullscreen image you can blow up to full size when you go there in a new tab.
There's a bit of drama in the course of events as well, but the focus is more on this:
The funny thing is, Christopher doesn’t even take the opportunity to finally explain to Sono421 what part of his comments were actually racist or even defend his reasoning for the censorship. Instead he just shuts down the post.
Keep in mind that Christopher already told Sono421 that he wasn’t going to “debate” him or discuss the issue further via the moderation ticket system. So not only could Sono421 not get any reasonable answers from speaking with Christopher directly, but he also couldn’t discuss the matter publicly with the community either.
It’s essentially doublespeak where no matter what someone like Sono421 says or does all of their attempts at getting resolution are shut down.
This has been a common tactic by Christopher since he joined N4G back in April of 2011.
And it's not an isolated case, either:
Additional users began reaching out to One Angry Gamer with more examples of double-standards and unfair moderation, which only escalated after Cat departed in early 2015. It was also revealed that sites and users could be banned from N4G based on off-site behavior.
Just two months later in December of 2015, N4G’s rules were further called into question when an interview with game developer Mark Kern was banned from N4G because during the interview Kern criticized Social Justice Warriors. The owner of the website TheGG was also temporarily suspended for submitting the interview with Mark Kern. This was covered in a lengthy editorial that was published on TheGG back on December 12th, 2015.
After a massive backlash that took place across social media, Christopher once again updated the makeshift rules and reinstated the interview, claiming that they only allow interviews on the site when the developer is working on a game. However, throughout 2016 more users began reporting unfair bans, censorship, and SJW-style double-standards being rampant throughout N4G. For instance, the moderators at N4G went out of their way to ban any articles or videosdiscussing Naughty Dog’s SJW agenda after it was initially put forward by YouTuber Robin.
It was the same story over and over again.
Can somebody help me along, what is N4G and am I living under a rock for not knowing about it?
It's a cancerous aggregator site for gaming news. You literally have people f'ing each other over to submit articles and raise the upvotes on articles because it will drive a tremendous amount of traffic.
The mods have biases toward certain sites and submitters in addition to being a progressive shithole.
It has been one of the main drivers of traffic. It wasn't worth the headache to me though and dropped it.

Bit of a Sony bias but an alright website if you want to catch up on gaming news.
Golly, you mean the absolutely dominant console appears to have a huge number of fans and positive stories on a gaming site???
Wrong. They literally worship Sony. And ban anyone who dissents. This has been going on since the 360/PS3 days.
N4G was a fairly decent site for user submitted stories years ago.
Instead of a bunch of static stories with comments like most gaming sites, N4G's top stories were what was generating the most user activity.
The comment UI was not as good as other sites but the site for the most part avoided the clickbate crap that is the bread and butter of most gaming sites today because gamers tend to just ignore those stories when they aren't forced in front of them. Instead with N4G you really had the raw gaming news items being the on the front page.
As with any community driven site, N4G started to go downhill from poorly implemented redesigns and toxic community managers/moderators who became petty little tyrants or the usual SJW activists.
Its a user controlled gaming news site. Mostly controlled by Sony fanboys and mods are heavily biased. Lately ots become biased towards SJWs as well.
I am a user there. I havw screen caps of Christopher accusing me after muting me for 30 days.
He is not being reasonable he is being crazy.
N4G has always been a cesspool of human waste. This isn't surprising in the slightest.
The guy put my comments about microsoft failing to launch adequate first party games ... when i commented on a negative review for sea of thieves ... when i reached out to him he said i was off topic ... so many complaints about him and 0 action'
This was the first of 2 comments he flagged as inappropriate
"feel bad for microsoft this gen none of their exclusives pan out .... sunset overdrive barely sold, quantum break tanked, halo 5 sucked, recore went from a full on AAA game to a second rate AA i guess gears 4 and forza are the only franchises that have delivered .... even their timed exclusives end up not selling well which is pushing them to believe less and less into investing into exclusives which is an adverse reaction to what they should be doing"
https://n4g.com/news/2155278/sea-of-thieves-xbox-one-pc-review-cgm#c-12637738
he deemed this as trolling.
when i messaged him about it the below is a driect quote from him
"First one implies Microsoft developed the game and goes off on their history rather than taking about the game. Second one also doesn't talk about the subject at hand, just complains about Microsoft."
Second comment he flagged was about recore:
"microsoft keeps shooting themselves in the foot releasing half-hearted incomplete games and then later on fixing them when most ppl have passed on them and moved on ... seems sea of thieves will have the same fate"
https://n4g.com/news/2155306/recore-definitive-edition-a-hidden-gem#c-12639482
he commented that microsoft didn't develop the game...
