You are the solution

#GamerGate You are the Solution: What to do and How Step 1. Arque in Good Faith Ste Don't assume hallenging questio Approach your debate opponent as if you think they are going to be open to hearing your side. Approach them as if things can be worked out. If you don't know something is certain but have to engage someone ask them a challenging question in a considerate way. They may just ignore you, they may lie or they may answer honestly. If they aren't feeling scrutinized then they're more likely to be honest. Step 2. Don't be a je rk. Don't get angry. No matter what It shouldn't matter how you say it, but it does. If you present information in a way that makes you seem rude people won't want to listen to you A lie can tell you something as well. If their answer hasn't dissuaded you and you still feel confident with your view compare and test the validity of yours views and theirs Step 6. Whats 1? How useful do you want to be? Step 3. Be respectful. Stay respectful If your opponent blows up, they're the one who looks like the irrational jerk for going off on someone who has kept their cool Being respectful has a ripple effect. It will cause doubt in those who follow them and your points might get more consideration. What do you want more? To be right and crush your opposition or do you want to make the truth known? Aim for the second one. Rise above the pettiness. Making it personal means making it emotional Don't do that. Focus on something bigger than yourself Step 7. Be brave If you've been smart with you actions there's no need to be afraid of making a mistake or missing a step and getting thrown off track. I know you care about this and you're going to do it the right way So look for the courage to do it. Remember you're not alone Try not to engage a debate unless you have proof. It's sometimes best NOT to lead in with your proof. See if they don't get tangled up in a lie first. If they try to label you something nasty you can just point back to your respectful behavior, their poor behavior and then show the proof. They're going to quickly run out of tricks that way.

I-1 File (hide): 1411804 (2.81 KB, 180x180, 1:1, chmmr.gif) Returning to gamergate + thoughts In 'N Out Chef 09/27/14 (Sat) 03:47:31 ID: 1aff4f No.26452 [Reply Devfag here I'm not going to go through my personal "why am I doing this" story, but basically I was involved from the zoepost past the "gamers are dead articles" as a heavily contributing anon and (hopefully) non-terrible) infographic maker After 4chan started censoring, I took that as a cue to re-focus on the game I'm trying to release. Anyway, wanted to jump back in from the real world and make a couple of point:s 1) We're actually winning. I was worried I was lost in the echo chamber of "we're winning" NI threads for too long. But after taking a step back, I actually think we're legitimately winning. Trust in journalism has taken a huge hit, and people are starting to become aware they are agenda-driven self-promoting manipulative liars. Minds are being changed 2) The indie publications (Kotaku, RPS, etc) NEED to still be the primary target for being completely discredited as a remotely reliable source, as people like Leigh Alexander because seriously... f--- her. She's such a s----- person it's not even funny. If anyone says "well, why not go after AAA-focused publications" link them this: http://en wikipedia org/wiki/Fallacy_of relative_privation 3) Dont f------ compromise. Burn it down. I say this as a developer because I'm willing to put up my game development skills in the free market against other peoples. The corrupt journo nepotism "it's about promoting a game with the right message (aka my friends)" doesn't benefit people who actually have skills. It hurts people who actually have skills, which means it lowers the quality of the general body of games 4) A lot of developers support gamergate, but cant exactly have a voice. Not as long as Leigh Alexander can write completely fabricated articles in the Time magazine about how someone who criticized her over twitter is a r----- that rapes women and promotes r--- culture. And then it turns up in wikipedia and everywhere else. That's not a label anyone can afford having 5) The goal of gamergate really needs to be demonstrating to developers (who read, but can't comment publicly) that Kotaku is rigged, indie awards are rigged, and unless you are dating one of their journos or in their little clique then doesn't matter how good your game is, or how much you email them, you ain't never getting positive press You're not going to convince people to stop READING Kotaku, but if you convince developers to stop focusing so much effort on getting a journo to come down from the mountain and notice them, then Kotaku will go away on its own. 6) Seriously, we cannot comprise. Alea iacta est 7) Resist calls for "you need leadership" and "distancing yourself from harassers" and "you need concrete goals" etc etc. They are red herrings designed to muddy the waters. The path to victory is continuing on the path WERE ALREADY ON 8) Be very aware that it's been easy for us, because these journos are morons that don't understand what they say publicly can be screen-capped. I had one of my infographics of three screencaps placed in proximity (to catch a journo in a lie) called a conspiracy theory by that same journo in a "real" publication. The upshot is actual PR professionals aren't going to use all these shill / false-flag tactics. This Emma Watson stuff kinda blew up in their faces 9) THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU CAN DO. Stop buying AAA titles at release. Stop pre-ordering. If the new Fallout/Elder Scrolls/etc comes out (whatever franchise turns you on), at the very least wait two weeks before buying it. It won't kill you. But it WILL send a message to AAA developers they need to also put pressure on journos. Because AAA developers rely on launch-day sales Also, if you can't trust journalism, why would you buy a game on launch day? Play on, brothers and sisters.
