Last i've heard they booted people indiscriminately. Ryulong was booted though, but all in all, so were those that were more pro-GG. -

It seems like CrashOverRide has the possibility to help out: https://twitter.com/ProfessorF/status/558244910331985920 I wonder if they will reach out or not. -

It is not about suspicious activity, it is more about how these sites quickly chooses to go for the same narrative. Hers cannot be the only support-group against harrasment. -

Brianna Wu tries to ban Adam Baldwin from an Australian expo with a petition: https://www.communityrun.org/petitions/revoke-adam-baldwin-s-invite-to-the-supanova-pop-culture-expo Gamergate has quickly responded: https://www.communityrun.org/petitions/don-t-revoke-adam-baldwin-s-invite-to-the-supanova-pop-culture-expo As for CrashOverRide, it has already gotten quite the expure for a single webpage: https://twitter.com/TheFartRises/status/558128343313575937/photo/1 -

I was under the impression that the "honey pot" was reference to not trying to touch it since harassment is the site's (hers) very business to begin with. The more attention they bring to the site, the more money she and Alex makes. Therefore, do not touch. At least that's what they said at /baphomet/ As for GG, i do not blame them for avoiding contact with her. She is not exactly the most trustful person. -
Having an 18+ or Adult sticker means that you are actively inviting icky and perverted people to the board. Such filth cannot be associated with a site that wishes to conduct in a professional manner. But that's an industry issue based on cultural norms, nothing to do with Obsidian really.

Has the board rules changed? I do not remember anything NSFW in that thread atleast. //edit: *sigh* No fun allowed.

The usual suspects are salty as ever when the youngsters are stepping out of their place, speaking their "cool speak", and thinking that their "insane" and "insensible" stuff matters. This was a somewhat aggressive post.

After Yatzee's article on "The PC Gamer Master Race", there has been rumors of people quitting The Escapist, including Greg Tito Also, 4chan is now on life-support: https://www.4chan.org/news?all#118 Thank you for all the memes, raids and endless pool of fun. The torch has now been given to 8chan. -
Yup. Any reasons why the economy and employment gotten better? Cheap oil prices? Market growth in certain sectors? Banks starting to invest again?

@FartToContinue continues digging through the connections between Intel, IGDA and FemFreq http://theralphretort.com/intel-exposed-farttocontinue-reason-anitas-cashout-becomes-clearer-0120015/ Anyone remember the CP allegations against 8chan? well... https://www.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/2t5675/infamous_internet_mess_fakes_suicide_after/ -
I actually don't get the point of that Chomsky article, what is he trying to say? Are we now going to look at the last 15 years and analyze every instance of collateral damage or mistake made by the West during its various military campaigns and say " the West is like these terrorists ....why are we not protesting against the West because of what happened 15 years ago in Serbia" or other example? And if we are talking about that specific example that Chomsky mentioned, yes journalists were indeed killed when that broadcasting agency was bombed. NATO didn't know that they were in the building but the broadcaster was a legitimate target of the NATO airstrike campaign. This is absolutely not the same thing as the Charlie Hebdo intentional slaughter of people who worked at the magazine Not sure why people think " this is such an insightful article " He is taking a jab on the moralization states use for "neutralizing targets" on the other side and how the media reports it, in a quite eloquent way. You should read his book "Manufacturing consent".

^The standard EU law should be that if you own the originals on DVD/BluRay, it should not count as piracy.

^Exactly, that's why i said the "left" as his kind of left wing has no authoritarian element. From what i gather about his political expressions is that you have to have free society where people can form their own cooperative syndicates. So maybe Anarcho-syndicalist or Social Libertanian is the closest label that you can give him. But it's a moot point, he is a heavy-weight intellectual that manages piss off all these other "political commentaries", and i love it.

Good read indeed. Chomsky is pretty much the only intellectual on the "left" that i highly respect.

Yup, Baldwin's character is the first one trying to save him as well. But that does not fit into the narrative of simpletons. -

Prediction time: Lately Zoe Quinn has created a site for GamerGate survivors called "CrashedOverRideNetwork", which strangely enough got an article on The Verge within 48 hours of its creation. Now she has created a storify on Twitter where she talks about the connection between GamerGate and the /baphomet/ board on 8chan and what terrorists they are. There's even a thread there (i won't link it, search it yourselves due to all the NSFW going on there) where there are quite a suggestions to hack it. Turns out that half the comments are "Nopenopenope", "Nu-uh, no, no way", "Hi Zoe!" or "Honey-pot! Honey-pot!" I bet that she will get harassed big time, get SWAT'ed or anything else that will potentially show her again as the victim, get to the news and try to destroy GG via /baphomet/ as proxy. I hope my prediction is wrong.
