    Just to be clear, because I'm obviously not American, now that the US government can monitor your communications why is this such a contentious point? It's an issue of privacy. The government shouldn't be able to monitor communications of citizens without court order(ie probable cause) in a free society.

    Oh and lookie here: The woman who anti-gg goons tried to run out of the industry(whose game we and TB helped get greenlight) claims she was bribed to denounce gamergate in exchange for coverage. And since I've decided to kick some money to charity, I decided I would throw some here: http://www.feedingamerica.org/ Feel free to insult me for being American-centric or whatever.

    Keyrock, you've touched mah feelz. I've been called worse than ISIS, a rapist, and deserving of extermination. At this point, I don't think any slander can affect me at all anymore. I think I'm going to throw the money I was going to spend on Legends of Grimrock 2 at a charity because my backlog is ****ing huge and I'm sure they could use that money more than me.

    I'm really hoping that GG will become a launch platform to get moderate voices into every aspect of society. Because more and more i'm seeing loud extremists everywhere and I blame the Internet and the culture that it created. I honestly doubt it. Here in this thread we're more concerned with the McIntosh's various crazy statement's than someone like.....Daimon Schubert I suppose, precisely because the voices of McIntosh and his ilk are amplified much more than those of moderate folks. The media is mostly to blame I believe, after all in the age of clicks pissing someone off is far more likely to get a reaction than a relatively bland look at the arguments presented, and these sites are run on clicks so do the math. As to GG, I just want my vidya gaem news sites to list disclosures and attempt to not write about those they have close personal relationships with. After that, an environment where I can protest censorship of GTA or criticize individuals who happen to be female without being labeled a misogynist neckbeard would be awful nice as well.

    https://archive.today/I5y1t Looks like doxing is ok, as long as it happens to the right people. I can't wait to have my personal information leaked so my girlfriend and I can receive threats, because e-mailing Gawker's advertisers is such an affront to humanity.
  8. PK htiw klaw eriF
    I only do the former(I hate Twitter with a burning passion) but it doesn't. It's guilt by association, which is an utterly ridiculous idea if you believe in personal responsibility. I will be one of the first to denounce trolls who harass anyone at all, but I refuse to blame those who are ideologically aligned with the harrassers of conspiracy or even that they are enabling it. I believe that we should judge individuals by their actions and assume innocence until guilt is proven, and I believe that if this happened from the beginning we would all be sitting around playing vidya instead of treating each other like ****.
  9. PK htiw klaw eriF
    I didn't say he did. I said that by his logic, he enables their misdeeds similarly to how I enable those of people who claim ideological alignment with me. The difference is subtle, but it is there. I condemn all harassment, no matter who the victim is and who the perpetrator is. I do not support placing the blame for the actions of a few on a movement as a whole, or even that the movement is supporting those actions. Just like I have no control over the actions of the reprehensible people who attacked Briana Wu, Tale has no control over those who attacked Liana K. I will not accept being held responsible for the actions of those I have no control over, I think the harrassers are terrible excuses for human beings and should **** right off, but do not believe anyone but themselves are responsible for their activity and as such only they should be blamed for it.

    No, because that's at least on topic of what you're supposed to be about. And they've done some truly ****ty stuff. Like the times they contributed to the leak of celebrity nudes, which wasn't even all that long ago.But going after game developers for petty slights, denying harassment, doxing, and the other disgusting things you enable, you deserve to be called out for it. I enable none of those things and condemn them when I have the opportunity. By that logic, you enable the harassment of Liana K and Claire Schumann, attempting to tank Jennifer D'Aww's Seedscape, and denying Ablegamers money from Mercedes Carrera's Porn Charity. I won't ascribe to guilt by association, but perhaps you should check where you're standing before tossing stones. Of course, I suppose one could consider drawing a mob towards Brad Wardell a "petty slight", but I would call that inducing harassment. As to alleged theft, as someone whose work was "appropriated" I tend to get very angry over stuff like that. Then again, my "going after" those in question involves bitching about it on KiA instead of bothering them on Twitter.

    It was corrected recently. Good on her for crediting the work she used in her game. In a world where using code uncredited is as common as it is, correcting a mistake is admirable. As to our online mob, Gawker has been targeted much more than her. Care to defend them?
  12. PK htiw klaw eriF
    Absolutely. There was a similar petition to ban the game in Canada using the same arguments. I see the same attitudes from "Family-Values" conservatives, such as One Million Moms(laughably founded by a dude) getting Mistresses pulled off the air.
  13. PK htiw klaw eriF
    I really don't want to argue semantics over censorship and banning. Rather, this is objecting to art(I realize this term may open a huge can of worms) because you find its content objectionable. On its own that isn't a problem, but when you start urging entities to stop carrying art because you don't like the content, you're attempting to force your views on others and stifle creative freedom. I don't like GTA but their right to make the content they want supersedes my right not to be offended. Now if the same group had instead put their efforts to something more positive, like promoting an existing game they found to be acceptable that would be quite a different matter, and frankly something I wouldn't mind seeing as I don't play GTA. But when you start clamoring to shut something you disagree with down, you're attacking someone's creative freedom. Not only is this bad for freedom, but it's also ineffective at stopping the spread of GTA and will probably end up increasing its popularity. The best way to combat GTA is to make an alternative that consumers will buy instead.

    https://twitter.com/RaveofRavendale/status/543332679178289152/photo/1 Dev is allegedly offered a review on exchange for money. http://www.rjgeib.com/thoughts/451/451.html I found this relevant to the GTAV situation. http://youtu.be/-p5TFsUbR0A

    To be fair you guys obsess about many topics and basically all the time, this whole thread and the previous ones are testimony to that That's generally how threads dedicated to a topic work Bruce. However, I believe this is this first time I've mentioned her in over two weeks, and would not be doing so if it was not something I feel should be known by the community. If it was Daniel Varva doing it, I would post the info as well because not crediting someone for their work is akin to stealing it, which is wrong. The press should notify consumers of this, as we have a right to know if the developer of a game stole someone else's work. One post about someone your movement talks about so much you had to come up with a codename for her. Yes one post. Compared to many more about Gawker, Kotaku, the Guardian, Polygon, and The Verge, who my movement talks about much more than her.
  16. PK htiw klaw eriF
    Yes one post is clearly obsessing, you've found me out. It clearly has nothing to do with someone using someone else's work without credit, or the lack of reporting on such.
  17. PK htiw klaw eriF
    I think how it's cute how you handwave away theft.
  18. PK htiw klaw eriF
    Well it looks like LW might have stolen a dev's code. https://twitter.com/CodeusaSoftware/status/543299860599177216/photo/1 Chances this will be reported on?
  19. PK htiw klaw eriF
    So GG cost Gawker at least a million? Good, couldn't have happened to a better site. In related news, SOPA2 might pass.

    Volorun wins the thread.

    I'll tell Hurlwife and have her ground you.

    Well, I'm glad we know why you say these "good things" against #GamerGate it is so "people" will "like" you. But when I fight for better rights for homosexuals, transgenders, differently abled, women and even goddamn animal rights it is because it is in accordance with my values and also THE RIGHT ****ING THING TO DO you totalitarian two-faced nazi ****. As a European, I can say that I laugh at your totalitarian puritanical horse**** in the same way as I laugh at tea party members, you are the worst of the right wing extremist mother****ers on the planet and I cannot believe that in America you are considered to be on the LEFT side of the spectrum. I wonder how he feels about Ian Miles Cheong? As to the rest, I'm quite frightened, as an American who leans left, that so many who claim ideological alignment with me are quick to embrace the totalitarian elements of fascism and completely ignore economic issues and dump freedom on the side in order to force their views on others.

    Because they aren't progressives, they're authoritarians first and foremost. They don't like free speech and dissenting opinion, which is why they go after 8chan and slander those who disagree. I see little difference between them and religious fundamentalists, especially concerning their "feels over reals" postmodernist mindset.
  25. PK htiw klaw eriF
    Arthur Chu is just dumb. The more I see him talk, the more I wonder how he hasn't been laughed into obscurity. Hotwheels posting so many truth bombs it's breaking my sides.
