Meh, big deal, Boko Haram still lives.

Other than the emails saying they need to help Quinn and Kuchera's usual whiny nonsense, that list has been pretty meh. Well other than the fun value of any sense of betrayal they feel

Nothing like enforced politeness.

Of course in theory we should just ignore trolls or rather not get upset by there comments. But Internet history tells a different story about the insidious impact that Trolls can have on some people. For some the Internet is a form of identity and is much more important to them than you realize, when they get Trolled it really effects them in a negative way...and I mean depression level consequences. There are people who have ended up committing suicide because of Trolling Should help people so they don't identify via the Internet.

Oh dear. Really though, if a troll on a forum makes your life harder, then there is definitely a problem. This is just the wind up troll mind you, not the kind that wages a war, rather just a skirmish here and there.

Well he means it will be an echo chamber of trolls. Still again, look at here, people are free to be rude and it is not like the myths of *chan or something.

Well, not really against kids, I am terrible with them and they cry at the sight of me, but was just tedious to talk about the same thing. New Dad Syndrome I guess.

Hah, being 'impolite' getting you banned is funny and doesn't really sound like a forum I'd really enjoy, I guess being passive aggressive is encouraged there ? One problem with ironhanded moderation is it can rapidly end up being an echo chamber with people being how they are.

Sure it does, they are just winding people up. Displays, in some cases, some good wit and quick thinking.

Which forums are those ? These forums are troll friendly I guess, the moderation isn't exactly strict and the members handle themselves and it's not flooded.

Only really preventive measure is to ruin anonymity online, which will be a shame when it is done.

You need AA, Bruce.

Still not convinced it is giving up careers really, versus doing the sensible thing and getting off Twitter. Or could just be flouncing. Either way it is pretty entertaining.

Are they, though ? I highly doubt GNAA, SA, *chan trolls really care much about the offline world's view of things. Most of "rest" of the gaming world isn't tied up in this, anyway. I suppose they are the vast pool of undecided everyone's hitting up via the press (a lot with this similar tone of Our Cause's Crusaders will win through in the end). Still think that regardless of this, saying you play games is probably going to get the same reaction it does now. Never did see any strange reactions to that back in my day other than "Oh ok", heh.

In more Twitter funnies, Wu is on the warpath - https://twitter.com/Spacekatgal/status/523179005487628288

Suffered through a Uni acquaintance at lunch not shutting up over his God damned kid.

Will have to go ask some people what exactly the future #gamergate is trying to prevent looks like. Probably more "inclusive" (read : "accessible" arrggh!)

Wait, how so ? What standards of decency are being violated now ?

So I guess the future all these games about "experiences" then, hm. Well, wonder what she's puffing her chest out about. Then again, being "out for" something is a lot different than actually doing it. See SJWs for that.

This is what happens when they still fund Humanities programs.

Naturally, she is my sister.

Sarkeesian must be loving this fame https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/features/anita-sarkeesian-gamergate-interview-20141017 Has Sarkeesian had any affect on game development, actually ?

Threatening to shoot up people at a University is serious, why is this a surprise that the police are looking into it?

Well, you only execute them if you fail to kill them from a distance, so not all about the executions. Looks like he has a infinite mag AK though
