GAMER Gamergate forces PC Gamer to clean up its act Two days after Gamergate raises Hell over PC Gamer Executive Editor Tylor Wilde's romance with a Ubisoft employee, Editor-in-Chief admits mistake and enforces ethics by barring Tyler from writing or assigning any coverage related to Ubisoft This is what we'll do in terms of disclosure from hereon: Tyler will no longer write or assign any coverage related to Ubisoft. PC Gamer writers will continue to be obliged to disclose any significant personal relationships with people whose work they might cover, with the expected outcome that they will no longer be assigned to that particular subject. In any situation in which the writer was still required to comment on the subject, full disclosure will be provided in the article More generally, we will continue to create stories we care about, and which we hope PC gamers will find interesting and entertaining. You may of course disagree with what we choose to write, perhaps strongly so, and we welcome that too. Anything we make ought to be the start of a conversation rather than an attempt to end one. The reason l wanted to join PC Gamer was because the editorial team is-and always has been-fierce, passionate, and fearless. I love this team and stand by their work entirely. - Tim Clark, Global Editor-in-Chief Source https://archive.today/M1KB6 Thank you to PC Gamer Editor-in-Chief Tim Clark for owning up to this mistake and correcting it. Gamers can and do make a difference. Game journalism has big problems. But we have the power to fix them #GamerGate

_"*I guess i had to do it if only because people are expecting me to do it. I didn’t even remember this was a thing till yesterday XD*"_ Had to add this because I thought that ppl would actually click the source link and look at the description after all this time
Like...is there any solution to this? Should we start something?

X Journalists would make claims of people like Anita Sarkeesian "playing video games all her life" when she openly admitted many times she is not a gamer and only starter recently (when it wasn't for an interview). Various developers trading sex or money for good reviews got exposed, journalists who accepted got exposed. People became a bit more critical about supporting a game just because the developer has a victim complex stating tat their game could have only failed because of sexism, instead of their own poor developing skills. What really sealed the deal was opposition often faking their own harassment. Anita sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn have been caught multiple times screenshotting "harassment" while showing that the harrasser's account name in the login. Or when someone called the police to help Sarkeesian against a "very real threat" she was posting about, only for police to find the harasser's messages were coming from her IP address. I just want honesty from the community, and the lies were mostly exposed by the "dreaded" gamergate. 1.3K views • View upvotes 26
