It is WikiTruth that ZQ never cheated on anyone or did anything wrong. All accusations of her being friends with people in the industry are proven false according to RS. All accusations of her being manipulative to Gjoni are proven false according to Rs. All accusations of her lying about Wizardchan are proven false according to RS. All accusations of her screwing over TFYC are proven false according to RS. It is WikiTruth that no Gamergater has ever commented about journalistic ethics. The reliable sources say so. Presenting evidence of what Gamergaters actually say is a BLP violation because GGers accuse journalists of wrongdoing that has not been confirmed by a RS. It is WikiTruth that Gamergate exists only to harass women and that is all Gamergaters have ever done or discussed doing. The reliable sources say so. It is WikiTruth that #notyourshield was a hoax, no women or minorities have ever posted under the hashtag, and all of the photos of women and minorities were shooped by 4chan. I wish I were joking. It is policy to revdel the hashtag #fiveguysburgersandfries. I thought I saw someone get sanctioned for posting a link to a change in ethics policy and attributing that to the Gamergate controversy, but I cannot find it. ArbCom chose not to keep or clarify the BLPTALK policy. It is now forbidden to link to a page containing \"BLP violations\" for any reason. Given that BLP can mean any negative information about anyone regardless of how well sourced it is, almost any URL could now be cause for banning someone. Admin Fluffernutter created the essay WP:SEALION to describe the normal dispute resolution process as something to be avoided Writing a NPOV draft is grounds for a permanent topic ban. (Ksolway) Any citation of Usher, Pinsof, or Milo is a BLP violation and grounds for a topic ban. (Retartist) Any citation of Adland is grounds for a 48-hour block. (DHeyward) Reporting NorthBySouthBaranof misrepresenting a source is grounds for a permanent ban from Wikipedia. (Greedo8) Standing next to the guy who reported NorthBySouthBaranof for misrepresenting a source is grounds for a permanent ban from Wikipedia. (Skyrock84) Reporting NorthBySouthBaranof apparently breaking a topic ban is grounds for a permanent ban from Wikipedia. (AnsFenrisuffr) This was later reduced to a permanent topic ban after other administrators raised questions about it. Reporting Ryulong to ANI is grounds for a weeklong block. (95.44.220.10) Mentioning that some of the \"reliable\" sources are personal friends of Leigh Alexander is grounds for a permanent ban from Wikipedia. (Kau-12) Mentioning that Anita Sarkeesian used to work with Bart Baggett, citing both Anita Sarkeesian and Bart Baggett, is grounds for a permanent ban from Wikipedia. (Xander756 and others) Removing Wikipedia's claim in its own voice that Anita Sarkeesian was harassed by Gamergate is grounds for a 90-day topic ban. (Theduinoelegy) Discussing a blocking admin's history of abusing his tools is grounds for a weeklong block. (24.52.193.34) Saying that Quinn admitted to sleeping with Grayson and that Sarkeesian steals footage from Let's Play videos is grounds for a weeklong block and a 1-year topic ban. (Crisis) Using the same usemame in Wikipedia and KiA is grounds for a permanent ban from Wikipedia. (TyTyMang, Armyline, Dwavenhobble) Questioning the groundless bans of KiA users is grounds for a permanent ban from Wikipedia and immediate revocation of talk page access. (WhatOn) Supporting the groundless bans of KiA users is grounds for a permanent ban from Wikipedia and immediate revocation of talk page access if the admin is in a hurry and mistakes you for a GGer. (Extralndividual) Anti-GG admin Protonk was briefly blocked for the \"BLP violation\" of claiming that Gjoni accused Quinn of cheating on him. Protonk was there when the BLP policy was written and swore that it was being misapplied. Protonk might be a bit more neutral now. A few admins have briefly questioned some of the Gamergate related bans, and then noped the f--- out and never mentioned it again. A small number of trolls and low-competence editors have been shifting all over the area which has not been helping the good guys. Someone outed EvergreenFir who had shot down early RS discussions. Surprise surprise, it's another male ultrafeminist DungeonSiegeAddict was being an idiot again and is going to get banned. Sonicyouth86 requested Gamergate sanctions against Spudst3r for edits to the Men's Rights article and misrepresented nearly every diff of evidence. The case is ongoing /rWikilnAction noticed that MarkBernstein had received four or five \"final warnings\" from administrators. DHeyward brought MarkBernstein to A/R/E. A herd of Bernstein's supporters showed up and called for a boomerang.

For other uses, see Gamergate (disambiguation). A gamergate ( g\u00e6mar gert) is a mated worker ant that is able to reproduce sexually, ie., lay fertilized eggs that will develop as females. Gamergates are restricted to taxa where the workers have a functional sperm reservoir (spermatheca). In various species, gamergates reproduce in addition to winged queens (usually upon the death of the original foundress), while in other species the queen caste has been completely replaced by gamergates. In gamergate species, all workers in a colony have similar reproductive potentials, but as a result of physical interactions, a dominance hierarchy is formed and only one or a few top-ranking workers can mate (usually with foreign males) and produce eggs. Subsequently however, aggression is no longer needed as gamergates secrete chemical signals that inform the other workers of their reproductive status in the colony Depending on the species, there can be one gamergate per colony (monogyny) or several gamergates (polygyny). Most gamergate species have colonies with a few hundred or fewer workers.

What causes the divide? Anonymous 03/19/19(Tue)16:55:34 No.455109640455109869455140765 (OP) P> This is an interesting question, and I think it has to do partially with journalism as a profession. Journalists like to claim, nowadays, that all games are inherently political, which is obviously untrue. There's nothing political about Tetris, or Super game than the creator intended. Sure, you could write a bunch of articles about the gameplay mechanics of the latest AAA game, but what about its POLITICAL message? If it doesn't have one already, you can just invent one Obviously, there are exceptions. Some games, like that last Wolfenstein game where B.J's dad had the Trump hair, are transparently political in an obnoxious, ham-fisted way. Other games, like Deus Ex, are also very political, but present their political messages intelligently. However, most games today keep their politics outside the game itself. You could play Overwatch, for example, and have no idea which characters are and aren't gay (I don't see sexuality as a political issue in and of itself, but it's often used as one). But if you read all the background material, you can figure out who's a crypto-lesbian and who's not. They don't directly inform you via gameplay, but they get progressive points anyway by telling people about is that plenty of games will be retrofitted with politics, either by the developers or the slimy world of gaming journalism, which creates the divide. Players don't analyze the game politically because they're busy playing it, journalists do because they wearit io Int you in click ni I \u00ce\u0130 Kliai \u012ficlen, aari:1 If tTK2liai \u012flcles i ar.alx>ut pnlitlt .

JULY 23 Culture Why Gamergate is Really About Political Correctness By Mark Judge I don't think Anita Sarkeesian knew what she was getting into. Sarkeesian is the thirty two-year-old feminist who has gained notoriety through Feminist Frequency, a website and social movement that criticizes violence and misogyny in video games Sarkeesian has become a lightning rod in the gaming community. After raising over 150,000 on Kickstarter in 2012 to launch a video series, Tropes Against Women, which analyzes video games, Sarkeesian experienced online harassment from gamers, including death threats. The attacks on Sarkeesian are disgusting, sad, and intolerable nd media have spent a lot of time covering her experience of harassment. What the media hasn't covered in detail is the fact that gamers have absolutely demolished Anita Sarkeesian's arguments. Her first argument is also the most general: that video games are violent and misogynistic. Over a year ago I became the video game reviewer for the Catholic News Service, a media organization that, as you might expect, does not approve of violent and sexist video games. Playing games every week and reading the gamer media, I discovered that the gaming industry is as diverse as American culture itself. There are games about war and stealing cars, but also games about puzzle-solving, heroic quests, and making friends. There are games that are anti-war and games that are artistically stunning, and games about just living life. One of my favorites is still the first game l reviewed, Olliolli, which allows players to do fun skateboard runs. In short, saying \"video games are violent\" is about as accurate as saying \"books are violent.\" There's just too much diversity in the field to generalize. Almost anyone can find a game tailored to his or her taste, and any trip to the local GameStop store will reveal the cornucopia of options. Yes, some games are violent. Some are misogynistic. And responsible people can have discussions about the effect that too much gaming has on the human soul and psyche -as well as what good games do. Yet Sarkeesian's arguments are overly broad, deceptive, and full of specific errors. Gamers have pointed this out in great detail, and are still caricatured in the media as unintelligent, pajama-wearing mouth breathers. One of the sharpest gamers to respond to Sarkeesian is a kid who calls himself Mr Repzion. Mr. Repzion in a lifelong gamer, and on his YouTube lhe has posted several responses to Sarkeesian that are detailed and well researched. (They also contain occasional bad language.) Repzion was particularly exasperated at the errors Sarkeesian made when she recently attended E3, the Electronic Entertainment Expo Also notable is gamer and YouTuber AlphaOmegaSin. He has posted lengthy and rigorously detailed videos highlighting Sarkeesian's mistakes. When a self-appointed social justice warrior recently accused Nintendo of being racist because the hand that appears on one of their video games is white, AlphaOmegaSin justifiably went nuts. Other old-school print and online journalists and critics have also destroyed Sarkeesian's arguments. When Sarkeesian said that the game Doom 4 shows the brutal sawing in half of a body, journalists responded that the violence was against a fantastical demon, not a person, and only lasted a few seconds. When Feminist Frequency objected that part of the game Fallout Shelter involved impregnating women, people who had played the game pointed out that the sex was consensual and was in fact only a minor part of a game about surviving in a post-apocalyptic world Critics have noted that even games that gi not enough for feminist Sarkeesian. One journalist got so frustrated with Sarkeesian's drive-by criticism (she doesn't allow comments on the videos she posts to her site and he often goes on blo she would simply debate him.
