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.

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.
I'm forwarding this to our editor. That's a good idea.
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
Investors and the like is owner's responsibility. Yes, things may change beyond what we are discussing here now, but right now what we are expressing is our intended path forward.
We'll try to keep people updated if plans change going forward.
