![Re: Zoe Quinn Article Discussion « Reply #153 on: Today at 02:29 PM » quote Karma: 153 Online Yeah seriously, f--- those guys. And even if Zoe Quinn were "guilty" of sleeping her game to the... well, not the top-into basic recognition, maybe?--so f------ what? Are the "journalists" being harassed as well? Is writing about video games even real journalism I think the biggest problem with "gamer culture" is that there is even something people call "gamer culture". And that it gives these idiot-meatheads something that they think they have to defend as a member of the in-circle. Zoe Quinn is a victim of this idiotic mindset, combined with spurned-loser inspired misogyny, and it's just fueled by all the gamer-sites trying to keep up the mask of "culture" or journalism, or whatever. Jesus, get a job, be a decent citizen, and then play games on the weekend and then seriously no one will give a f---. Mmmm. I'm so delicious. I know (or at least hope) that most of these s-------- are just kids to maybe early 20s, but even staying up late at night so that I could play Civ I after my folks were asleep l never thought I was fighting the man. It was just something fun I wanted to do after did all the homework and s--- the grownup world makes you do Logged professorlight Re: Zoe Quinn Article Discussion Sir Postsalot quote « Reply #154 on: Today at 02:30 PM Karma: 82 Online I know this is getting off the subject, but I love the idea of them hunting down women and minorities to come speak out against the "SJWs" - in other words, trying to ind women and minorities who will come out against games being more inclusive for women and minorities. You don't speak for me! I'm perfectly fine with gaming being geared almost completely toward young white heterosexual males, both on the developer and side! F--- the SJWs for suggesting I'd want anything else! I mean, come on, man. I don't think that s--- even makes sense inside the echo chamber, you have to really lie to yourself to make the logic contort back in on itself I think that's the point where every pretense gamergate might have had of being a legitimate concern is set on fire and thrown out the window... in order to know they needed support from minorities and women to make their protest legitimate they needed to know that they would give legitimacy, and they would be acknowledging their social importance, but at the same time they knew they would never get their support by legitimate reasons, instead being forced to resort to lies and badly done sockpuppets That's a level of double standards I can't wrap my head around, how can you know this people are important to your cause to be a part of a unified, equal force, and still fight to harass and discriminate them? it's not even stupidity or immaturity at that point, that's just plain evil Logged Pages: 1... 6 Z [8] reply ) (notify send topic) print)](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/list/000/831/399/1f5.jpg "Cracked_forum_dismissing_gamers")
![crabcrawler @crabcrawler1 Easy to explain. 4chan's former boss was lazy and did a blanket ban on Gamergate, instead of going on a case-by-case basis approach that filtered out the junk. So that created the initial demand for 8chan. that's it. [Return] [Catalog] [Bottom) On Regarding recent events moot Admin : 4 minutes ago No 264185884 E The decision to remove "GamerGate" threads has been poorly communicated, and that's my fault. Said threads are being deleted primarily because they violate our blanket "no personal information / raids / calls to invasion" rule. Spamming the reports system and creating multiple topics were also a factor, especially given /w is one of 4chan's fastest moving boards and has histerically struggled with keeping toplcs limited to actual video games. Regarding a perceired lack of free speech/censorship -- many seem to misinterpret my advocating for anonymous communication and highlighting that it allows people to share things they otherwise wouldn't be comfortable with on other platforms as "you can say and do anything on 4chan, " which simply isn't the case. We've had rules and moderators since the site was founded "11 years ago", and I've only reinforced this statement over the years, a la: https liarchive moeighthreadis800a0580135 To those who actually want to use hw to discuss vidya and not a movement that has outgrown 4chan (a la Project Chanology) -- apologies for the inconvenience [Return] [Catalog) (Top) O The Daily Dot O @dailydot · 6d Years later, we must circle back to Gamergate and how it made Q possible. From @clairenjax: crabcrawler @crabcrawler1 · 6d Replying to @crabcrawler1 GamerGate had it's own self-contained identity, and it was against politics and special interest groups with an agenda shoehorning themselves into the hobby. But the 8chan platform being what it was? Yeah that created the "Q" crap. But in of itself. 1 27 5 27 crabcrawler @crabcrawler1 · 6d ^ ain't saying that to defend nobody.
