I wish it hadn't come to this, but I love that it's got legs.
Make them face up to their absurd actions.
Also, I guess they don't pay attention to Steam, or it's a different mod team, but miraculously I haven't been banned yet. Been going hard on them over there, as have others. Still kicking.
You picked this fight, you woke retards. Let's go.
You should never give the keys to your car to a kid.
This entire situation could have been avoided by using foresight based on experience.
Kids have neither but can still destroy your car and lots of other things while they are at it.
It takes a long time for the info to propagate but eventually serious people will catch on.
No faggots, no women.
At least if you care about the goal of the project more than fighting drama.
And then, sadly, takes a long time to fall off, and then people get "inclusive" again.
It's the standard hard times/weak men, weak men/hard times paradigm.
And yet, people will be shocked and appalled when people start telling these spoiled children that, no, they don't just get to do whatever they want.
Someone elsewhere (I forget if it was on here or Twitter), summed it up well, something along the lines of 'Godot was created by a magnificent nerd, who didn't have the backbone to police his teammates, and people he handed it off to.'
The main guy, for all his accomplishments, just didn't have the spine to call out bad behavior earlier, and let it get to this point. And will, sadly, likely let it continue. Although I'd love to be proven wrong.
But yeah, the OG handed it off to his kids (so to speak), but his kids were retards, who are crashing his car in a big way.
From rice field to rice field, in three generations.
The problem is that most of this shit was invented by, let's call them, "Kids that taught themselves how to drive at 12, and loved repairing cars since 10".
Then, the kids who never drove a car until they were 21, and now support mass transit, and tell everyone that driving a car is bad for the environment were handed those keys. The colleges, universities, human resources, marketing, public relations, and previous employers (who were all their friends) vouched for them, and said the keys needed to be passed down to the next generation as an obligation.
And yeah, it's true, the older generation has an obligation to pass down what it made to a generation that can handle that responsibility.
Instead, they got the keys to the car and immediately "pimped it out" by painting rainbows on the the bodywork with literal wall-paint from home depot, removed all the doors and windows so that "it could become a party bus", and have spent $50,000 trying to make it run on ethanol with their retard friends, who were somehow allowed to be a mechanic.
They only correct thing to do now is recognize that the party is over, and it's time to take the T-Bird away
A very fitting extrapolation of the analogy Giz!
Thanks, I try sometimes.
Lol. Why you feeling bad about this? People like this should never be allowed to work in the industry again
Why do I feel bad?
Because I like Godot.
Absolutely fuck all these locusts. I don't feel bad for them in the slightest, and I hope they fade away to embarrassing irrelevance.
I still wish this hadn't happened, because Godot is a good product.
Tge thing I hate about these dramas is that it gets too focused on the head of the hydra, rather than the source. Who hired this person and why. Is it nepotism? Something more sinister? The rabbit hole surely goes deeper.
founder needs to remove the tranny and anyone that complains about its removal
He does, but probably doesn't have the guts for it. He seems significantly less woke than these retards who are currently running amok, but seems to not fully realize what is going on. He's not plugged in.
Also, not even sure how much power he still has over his own project, even if he were to pull the proverbial trigger.
If he wanted to "compromise" like most unplugged apolitical normies, he could simply chastise the nonbinary freak for antagonizing people, and let xir continue to say whatever it wants to say but ask that it unblocks/unbans people that it had banned since Godot is for everyone.
If he says nothing then I must assume he agrees with the woke freaks. Maybe he's not really involved in the project these days.
Asks? Dude is the boss. Tell the troon to undo everything
He took money to develop the engine. This money comes with strings.
I predict some but not all of the blocks will be undone, there will be an announcement along the lines of "We regret that some actions were taken that don't represent the Godot project, we apologize for that. Godot has always supported all voices in game development. #LGBT" And the community manager will continue merrily on.
I invite anyone to read https://godotengine.org/code-of-conduct/ and not conclude they are woke. It's like the "Expectations" part was written by a normal human and says all they need to say, then there's a "Restricted content" part that's five times as long, totally unnecessary, and can be summed up as "We know you disgusting white males are going to be disgusting all the time, and look forward to banning you when you inevitably make a brave womxn of color uncomfortable." They actually use the word 'uncomfortable' as a bannable offense.
In other news, unity has removed their per-install pricing and swears that any future changes will only ever apply to versions introduced after the change. I don't know if they're woke.
Very likely the case.
Yup, they were always at the very least mildly woke. The issue is they went full mask off, and full authoritarian, and declared war on their own user base. They handed the reins to an insane alphabet person.
Eh, at least Godot is forkable, and has an open license. Despite this current kerfuffle, they can't fuck you as hard as Unity could, and are still a better option. I hate what is happening with Godot right now, but I'd still say they're a better option than something more mainstream like Unity, where you'd be fully at their mercy.
Until there's a fork, my current advice would be: Use Godot, but make no mention of using Godot, do not promote Godot, do not include any Godot logos in your loading screen, etc. Cut them out, do not give them credit and, definitely, do not donate to or otherwise fund them. You can still use Godot (for now), while absolutely despising them.
It isn't "not crediting the product", it's making a private one-off fork of the product that happens to be the exact release one. The joys of open source work.

I find this does a good job of explaining why even some non-woke nerds let themselves get walked over by woke faggots.
tl;dr
Geek Social Fallacy #1: Ostracizers Are Evil
Geek Social Fallacy #2: Friends Accept Me As I Am
Geek Social Fallacy #3: Friendship Before All
Geek Social Fallacy #4: Friendship Is Transitive
Geek Social Fallacy #5: Friends Do Everything Together
1 and 2 in particular are ripe for taking advantage of.
Needs to be forked an renamed "Nigger" to keep ALL of the normies away
I hate that you're kind of right...
#Nigot
The +Nigger license has you covered
It's not just on twitter.
This is their discord server mod: https://x.com/voidboi0/status/1840382461101924373
Who unsurprisingly turns out have a history of his own:
https://x.com/GamesNosh/status/1840499469160190381
Check the original tweet that's being responded to there, too. That was in response to a "Titanium Supporter" ($100 [I think even Pounds] being donated, perhaps per month, and their ban.)
That Discord retard is calling a significant funder, and someone who is very enthusiastic about the project, a "toxic piece of fuck, an evil human." I care about that so much more than that he's a hypocrite retard who said "nigger" a bunch.
Absolute piece of shit.
It is ironic these people always have that edgy past, too, seems like. I have no issues using the word "nigger." I have no issues using any word. I also don't go around calling people that, based on their presumed identity, though. I'm not going to try to cancel people who do but, well, apparently, this guy both calls people niggers, and then tried to hurt people who call people niggers. Like I said, an absolute piece of shit. Pick a lane.
The gayness will continue until morale improves.
This is the kind of gayness that doesn't even have the common courtesy to give people a reach-around.
Weird how an engine that has very low market share can afford to pretty much antagonize anyone.
Some based devs have already forked the code and will be picking the journey up where the woke scuttled the ship. Project name: ReDot.
It's open source and the woke viruses keep forgetting they aren't the talent in such projects. You can seethe at the evil patriarchy all you want, but they are what keep the lights on and buy/use the products.
That's a good name, nice.
They are going to have to rebrand https://github.com/Redot-Engine/redot-engine/issues/18
But lets try and keep up with this and see if it has legs. It really looks like they broke the camels back and a significant portion are ready to do an honest fork.
"Management" has made a lot of poor and even shady decisions over the last year, as well as blocking a lot of legitimate features and improvements for years now because "you could just write that yourself."
Wanted to see Lethn's comment on this slow cooked situation. Looks like he left and deleted account.
That weak shit pisses me off. I never hated Lethn like some people here did, but seeing anyone throw such a hissy fit annoys the heck out of me. Fuck that dude, the little bitch. Also, he nuked his dev community on the way out, and I had to recover and archive everything. Only one or two people will ever see my archive, but it would have been a shame to see all those resources washed away by his little bitch tears.
Lethn has had some bad takes. Him absolutely imploding is his worst yet. Weak and gay.
Also, nonsensical. He claimed he was getting close to an alpha release of his game, and at least some people here would have supported him. So he's shooting himself too. Not as bad as Godot is doing...but yeah.
He did mention preferring other platforms a few times, but to have a literal spergout on the way out is indeed weak. Delete your account or keep it, but burn the right bridges in life.
I must not have been lurking that week. Any idea what finally set him off?
Here's some of it, if you're curious.

You can just look for other threads around that date and see him freaking out on other ones too. I think that was the one he gave up, so it would be threads slightly earlier where he was also freaking out.
Oddly enough...the Tenet drama. He had a serious autism against YouTubers in general or something, said they were guilty because the government brought an indictment so it was official (even though he got all the facts wrong), and said he'd throw even people he liked like the Lotus Eaters or Count Dankula under the bus if their governments (which already hate them) came for them, as long as it was official. I'm paraphrasing, of course, but he doubled down on it super hard. It went pages deep, over multiple threads. Everyone was calling him wrong, so he started calling us retarded Redditor bootlickers for "defending scum" or whatever.
Basically, classic autism, where he couldn't even understand that people were talking about two different things. I know I personally said time and again that I didn't even like most of the Tenet people, but the principle was important. And he still just kept calling me and others retarded fanboys.
Basically, it was a very disastrous combination of extreme autism and the latent respect for government authoritarianism that seems to be in most UK subjects.
It was quite the blowup though...he really just wasn't getting anything, and called out everyone else for being wrong and "misinterpreting" him...by repeating his own words back to him. He'd say you were getting his whole point wrong...and then agree with what you were saying he was saying. Over, and over, and over, and over. It was hilarious and exhausting.
If you follow anything VoxDay says about the SSH, Lethn was pure textbook Gamma. He was a guy with delusions of grandeur who thought he knew more than he did and an inability to admit he's wrong.
Fat, ugly, stupid hair.
It checks out
The most annoying part of this whole situation is that "wokot" doesn't make sense in terms of pronunciation.
Now they have a post on their foundation twatter feed telling you to fill out a "bend the knee" form to plead to be unblocked.
Naw. Pass.
If only Death Note was real, those worthless degens would be dropping like flies.
Are you AI or something?
