Zagal <jzagal@ Reply-To: Games Research Network <GAMESNETWORK To: GAMESNETWORK@uta.f The executive board of the Digital Games Research Association publicly condemns the harassment and bullying that some of its members have faced over the last few months due to their work researching and studying videogames. DiGRA is categorically opposed to this kind of behavior About DiGRA DiGRA is an association for academics and professionals who research digital games and associated phenomena. It encourages high-quality research on games, and promotes collaboration and dissemination of work by its members DiGRA was established as an independent, volunteer organization and is financed by membership dues. We are self-governing and remain responsive to our members, who have always had the freedom to choose how we are run and what research should be encouraged and developed at our conferences As a scholarly organization, we encourage and promote constructive discussion about how games work, what they mean, and how they impact society and culture If you have questions or inquiries about DiGRA please contact us at coordinator@digra.org - Gamesnetwork, discussion list of Digital Games Research Association, www.digra.org Note: to unsubscribe send "UNSUBSCRIBE GAMESNETWORK" to interface to subscribe and manage your subscription: https://listserv.uta.fi/cgi-bin/wa?

Web Landers, Richard N. <rnlanders Reply-To: Games Research Network <GAMESNETWORK@ To: GAMESNETWORK Wed, Nov 5, 2014 at 3:00 AM Is there any additional response to GamerGate planned by DiGRA other than these two sentences? I arm specifically curious if there will be a formal response to accusations floating around that DiGRA is the cause of GamerGate, or if that's just being ignored. It seems like DiGRA is at a crossroads in regards to how the gamer public perceives it moving forward (which might influence the ease with which DiGRA members can gain access to gamer communities, or even games companies), so I would personally hope for a somewhat more substantial response. "We're against bullying," while certainly true, also doesn't demonstrate much awareness of what's going on in the gamer community I think there is also an opportunity here to try to actively participate in this broader discussion about gamer culture, which is obviously very important to an awful lot of people. I don't know if that's a common feeling among researchers though, or if ivory tower "wait and see" attitudes will end up ruling https://mail.google.commail/u/2nui-2&iに186300f7c4&viewFpt&cat-DiGRA&search-cat&the 1497d5abb586ac98&siml_1497d5abb586ac98&siml_14984791d0 1,19](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/list/000/861/830/adb.png "DiGRA emails about GamerGate")
