Probably the same as any other game, some games you butcher orcs by the truckload, this one just has you doing it to people. Rather funny, I found.

How surprising you're arguing for something to be controlled. Would be interesting to hear who you'd suggest moderate this website, heh. Also, you need to give cheerleader trolling. Wu's hit up a lot of networks. I guess the "terrorists" aren't all that imposing.

Nah, they'd be disregarded as anti-feminists.

What are you playing now?
WoW 6.0 changed a lot, new character models are cool, the run animations give the characters, mine at least, more weight when they run. Squished stats so max levels are running around with maybe 90k HP, rather than nearing or exceeding 1MM, seems they messed up lower level content - not facerolling stuff I used to be able to.

Well, they're banking on people like you to keep sustaining them, I suppose.

Not holding out much hope that will be good.

What you did today.
Spent a good deal of a client meeting wondering how quickly I could kill him with the pen. Sadly was a medium point not a fine one, so determined it'd be rather long. Did get a laugh out of his stunning realization that maybe, maybe, approaching a problem from one direction and with a plan was a good idea.

To be fair, a lot of these 'journalists' don't. Alexander must have been beat up by some nerds or something, but aside from her they all seem to think themselves greater than they actually are. I'm not certain the whole glut of 'Gamers are dead' articles that launched around the same time were all misinterpreted either as a result of watching these people at play. I think GG was before that article, back when it was still hunting down corruption or whatever, but I may be mistaken.

We've already been over this, before. She didn't restrict her terms though, trying to be so hard sounding in the article for that I suppose. You are the one that said her words were taken to use an agenda, I have to explain your post to you ?

Believe in transformation ? What new buzzphrase faith is this ? It was silly for Alexander to use it, because it isn't what she meant in her whiny diatribe, not to people taking her words to push an agenda.

Seems a bit silly though, acting as if you are guilty of someone else's deeds. Also makes it a joke for your opponents to control you as well, given it is Twitter based. Good comedy at any rate

How exactly do you do that, though, just stop using a hashtag the moment some one says something 'offensive' ?

AAA Companies aren't as easily trolled, and also don't make good victims.

Funny too, I had thought GG was out of steam this week. Well timed death threats stoked things back up

Herr Cheong is sending death threats!

Did you write that ? Amusing to use a site that pretty much bans anyone that isn't like you pretty much. Some of the points he listed out is true, but have to think he's not going to list points they are correct about.

Well, I guess Sarkeesian is the common point. That and, well, people bashed a woman and that's always misogyny. But as one can expect from the Internet equivalent of a bulletin board, it's all a confused and angry mess.

So now a new hashtag is born! #StopGamerGate2014, as Sarkeesian faced a massacre threat. Ah, crazies ruin it for everyone

Bit much to claim people slinging crap online as 'vigilante justice'

Beats me, but that is the buzz I am reading. Also the last line about "8chan isn't all about you" was offensive...er somehow. People are weird.
