NOTHING HAS F------ CHANGED 10

Gamergate (harassment campaign) Article Talk From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For other uses, see Gamergate (disambiguation). Gamergate or GamerGate (GG)[¹] was a loosely organized misogynistic online harassment campaign and a right-wing backlash against feminism, diversity, and progressivism in video game culture. [2][³] It was conducted using the hashtag "#Gamergate" primarily in 2014 and 2015.[1][4][5][6] Beginning in August 2014, Gamergate targeted women in the video game industry, most notably feminist media critic Anita Sarkeesian and video game developers Zoë Quinn and Brianna Wu, among others.[7][8][9][10][11] The harassment campaign included doxing, r--- threats, and death threats.[12][13][14] Gamergate proponents ("Gamergaters") stated that they were a social movement, but lacked well-defined goals, a coherent message, and leaders, making Gamergate difficult to define.[15][16][17] Gamergaters claimed to promote ethics in video games journalism, claimed to be protecting the "gamer" identity, and opposed what they asserted as "political correctness" in video games.[18][19][20][21][22] Read Date Target Gamergate, online harassment campaign in 2014-15 that targeted women in the video game industry. The attacks were attributed largely to white male right-wing gamers who railed against the rise and influence of women and feminism in the industry. Gamergate served as a recruiting tool for the growing alt-right movement and helped spur the online “Pizzagate" conspiracy theory, which soon spawned the wider QAnon conspiracy movement. …………………………....…..……….…..... Attack type Victims Motive View source Inquiry XA 28 languages ✓ Perpetrators Internet trolls, particularly from 4chan, Internet Relay Chat, and 8chan View history Tools ✓ Gamergate August 2014 - 2015 Women in the video game industry See all media Online harassment campaign Zoë Quinn, Anita Sarkeesian, Brianna Wu, and others Gamergaters created conspiracy theories falsely accusing Quinn of an unethical relationship with video game journalist Nathan Grayson.[23][24][25] More broadly, they alleged unethical collusion between the press and feminists, progressives, and social critics.[17][26] [27] These claims were widely dismissed as trivial, conspiracy theories, baseless, or unrelated to actual issues of ethics in gaming and journalism.[28] [29][30] Gamergate supporters frequently denied that the harassment took place, falsely claiming it to be manufactured by the victims.[31][32] Misogyny anti-feminism anti- progressivism FBI investigation Gamergate has been described as a culture war over cultural diversification, artistic recognition, feminism in video games, social criticism in video games, and the social identity of gamers.[28][33] [34] [35] Many supporters of Gamergate opposed the increasing influence of feminism and so-called "social justice warriors" on video game culture. [2][36] Gamergate led figures both inside and outside the gaming industry to focus on methods of addressing online harassment, ways to minimize harm, and prevent similar events. [37] [38] [39] [40] Gamergate has been viewed as a contributor to the alt-right and other right- wing movements.[21][41] Video game developer Brianna Wu

Author has 304 answers and 740.1K answer views. 5y Not that I care that much either way, but it did expose a lot of corrupt game developers and game journalists. 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

Xbro speaks about gamergate

File (hide) (2.72 MB. 1090x873. 1090:873, ga bme Xbro here again. Just wanted to remind you guys a few things and pass you a little message from some of us: I (we) do not speak for Xbox, Microsoft or any other company mentioned here. I do, however, speak for myself, and for quite a few of my colleagues in the studio/industry that can't voice their opinion due to backslash from certain groups of people or the media. Some have already come out in support of this movement, and many more will continue to do so in the future We do not, in any way, support harassment, threats, doxing or other similar activities, no matter if they are serious or 'just a joke. This is not a way to win an argument or assert one's opinion. Cultural diversity is a big part of large companies in this industry, as many of them have studios across the globe with employees working together for the same goals. If you see people that do this, no matter what side they are on, report them using the provided means or contact authorities. Do not incite them or publicize the attacks (like some have done). Regarding the recent uproar in this industry, we stand behind our customer base: the gamers. They are the reason why we have jobs, they are the reason why we happily go to work in the moming. We create new experiences and products that they enjoy, and that will never, ever change As developers, we stand against the corruption in the game industry media, as well as the one in the actual dev industry. We are revolted by the public attacks on gamers made by certain publications, attacks that have ultimately triggered this movement. However, we will not stand idle as certain groups attempt to tear us apart. No more. We, alongside you, are actively boycotting any publications or websites that slander our customers, support buying, or insult our intelligence with defying remarks and threats. We've been sending those emails to advertisers and our contacts throughout the marketing industry for some time, but have always done so with great consideration as to not associate ourselves with the companies we would normally represent in front of the public This brings me to the following point: as I re-iterate that our opinion does not represent any of the listed companies' official stance on this issue, I urge every dev out there to take great care and thoughtfully consider his or her statements before talking on public forums and websites. You will be seen as a representative of your studio/company, and certain groups of people will most definitely use that to get gamer) you fired or to slander you publicly. (to the ones that are on the 'manhunt for me and the other pro-GG Microsoft devs, I wish you good luck, and so does our studio lead, which is also apparently, a 'dead It's up to you to weigh in those risks when making statements. You can always however, speak out anonymously. The Escapist, Niche Gamer or Tech Raptor are a few of the trusted publications that will help you make your voice heard if that is what you want. If you use public boards, forums, twitter, etc., always use a proxy and be careful when you provide your proof Lastly, another few useful reminders: don't take the baits, don't engage in pointless arguments or rants, never insult, report illegal activities and abuse, always verify facts, and never let a day go by without sending an email to those advertisers It's a slow process, but we're getting there. Signed, A group of men and women from Xbox, Play Station, Ubisoft, 2K Games, Crytek (+ two other studios that are too small to maintain anonymity)

RationalWiki is sick of Ryulong's obsession with GG

You really need to take a break You've been editing the Gamergate article for like 9 hours straight, dude. You're editing it every day. This is behaviour that has already gotten you banned from Wikipedia. You should take a break. Seriously, this isnt healthy behaviour, you're starting to remind me uncomfortably of Ken DeMeyer Take a holiday. yah? Let someone else worry about it. JeevesMkⅡ The gentleman's gentlema n at the other site 10:28, 28 February 2015 (UTC) No, I was banned at Wikipedia for "recidivism" and not being civil in the face of a horde of trolls trying to skew an article in their favor when they don't have any sources to back their claims up. Research better-Ryūlóng (琦司11:02. 28 February 2015 (UTC) Whatever. You're stil putting in more than full work days editing here. For the sake of your own health, take a couple of weeks off, please. -JeevesMkll The gentleman's gentleman at the other site 11:05, 28 February 2015 (UTC) Why-Ryūlóng (琉竜) 11:06, 28 February 2015 (UTC) Because what you're doing is a pretty clear sign of some sort of mental illness, dude. Editing a wiki is not a paid job, and doing it for ten hours at a stretch isn't good for you. If what you're doing isn't affecting your work or your personal life, it'd be some kind of miracle. -JeevesMkll The gentleman's gentleman at the other site 11:13, 28 February 2015 (UTC) The effort rm putting into the page might actually get me work and my social life has been dead ever since I came back to the states-Ryūlóng慌旬11:15. 28 February 2015 (UTC) Not ust for the sake of your health, but the sake of the article, take a rest. Let a few other people work on the article without obsessively micromanaging it. Check out the rest of the wiki, fix some typos and stuff, take a breath of fresh air. human 22:32, 28 February 2015 (UTC) Your plans are s--- though.一Ryūlóng慌旬22:46. 28 February 2015 (UTC) How do you know? You won't even let anybody start to work on your pet article, let alone see the end results of their work, before you start to edit war with them. John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt (talk) 22:51, 28 February 2015 (UTC) Because he's said he wants to carve it up like a turkey-Ryūlóng慌司23:09, 28 February 2015 (UTC) Calling them "s---" is not a good way to collaborate. Also describing a useful plan as "carving it up..." is just irrelevant. Your personal vision for this article may not be the one that is best for the wiki. human 23:34, 28 February 2015 (UTC) If I dont like the plans that you and others claim are best for the wiki when the page is used as a resource by people who have been heavily affected by Gamergate to show to their uninitiated friends how b------- it all is then I can call them what I want-Ryūlóng (琉竜) 23:36, 28 February 2015 (UTC) And we can call your plans b-------, too.
