Hello fellow gamers,
We're the people who will be implementing the next chapter for OAG.
As many of you have noticed, there is a lot of controversy and concern about the site's future under new management. This, in part, is owed to how we went about announcing the next chapter of our journey together. For this, we apologize and are here to dispel any and all rumors going around as well as address any questions you our audience have for us.
We will show you with our action and our product's quality that we are serious about our mission and respect for you - the consumer. To begin this process, we are setting up an AMA to answer questions you have about the transition, staffing, what is going on, or who is best girl and why traps are most assuredly gay. Anything you are curious about, we will attempt to answer.
Ask us anything!

We'll start answering your questions in 3 hours.

Well, good luck with that. You'll find that the overlap of people that care about free speech and people that think it's a good idea to let google dictate what zhey are allowed to say is abysmally small.
Your hands may be bound but I don't think you have a viable buisness on them either way.
Google will not dictate what you can and cannot say. I'll not cheapen it by beggaring, but pragmatically we're talking about a few words and posting images on another platform. You can still dunk on wokeness, interjection, etc and we'll continue to cover that stuff.
Come again?
Yes, some terms will be restricted, but the expression of thought will not be. For example, you can complain about race swapping, but just not use the N-word.
If you wanted to be overtly subversive about it, I would create a master list of banned terms and an "OAG conversion list", e.g. "N-word -> Jogger" etc. Make it officially sanctioned and created through community contribution and that could go a long way toward creating a sense of solidarity in fighting Google's censorship, despite living under it.
Basically, you need something of your own that gives off a "devil may care" vibe that Billy gave. He didn't just defend, he fought back. That was the attitude that people came for.
As i said: good luck with that. You do you and I understand that you need the money. But please don't insult us by lying about bending to google's definition of hate speech.
Also: Don't he surprised when google inevitably broadens the definition.
I guess, I'll just watch how long it takes until you start mass-deleting and mass-banning. Not necessarily because you want to, but because you'll have no choice
"Google will not dictate what you can and cannot say."
"terms that Google defines as"
"our hands are tied"
One of these statements doesnt make sense with the other two, can you tell us which one?
