PK htiw klaw eriF Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 It looks like hypocrisy is standard issue when becoming a game journalist.

Oerwinde Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) Silverstring media's Zoya: "TotalBiscuit’s rapey interpretation of journalistic ethics." http://borderhouseblog.com/?p=11941 Wow, let's completely ignore the horrific trivialisation of rape from this supposed feminist for a minute and realize that this doesn't actually cover anything that TotalBiscuit actually said. He said that if it is true that she used a DMCA Takedown to remove a video she didn't agree then he condemned her for that action and that is literally the only thing he said that can be construed as being negative towards Zoe Quinn. This is another example of anti-GamerGate people dragging Zoe into it when she isn't even relevant - painting a target on her forehead and throwing her under the bus to further their own agenda. It's all fine and dandy to throw complete lies around if you're willing to use someone who has already been victimized as a lightning rod to keep the heat off yourself. What a terrible, terrible person. The world is literally a worse place for everybody on both sides because this article and its writer exist. I very dearly hope TotalBiscuit doesn't dignify it with a response. After reading everything she linked to I couldn't link anything she was bitching about to anything he said. Its like she was referring to something completely different. If broadly saying anyone who uses DMCA takedowns to avoid criticism is a scumbag is mysoginy, no wonder gamers are being broadly described as such. Here we thought it meant hating women, when it really means including women in any sort of criticism ever. Its like saying only white people are racist, its incredibly racist, but accepted because its ok to hate white people. I'm getting the urge to read Soul of the Fire.

aluminiumtrioxid Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 I feel compelled to point out the "White Large" words on the container. Can't help but snicker (and feel bad about it). "Lulz is not the highest aspiration of art and mankind, no matter what the Encyclopedia Dramatica says."

Orogun01 Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 I see that the Patriarchy thread is spreading. I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.

Wow. That real? It does not feel real... [9/18/14 12:43 AM] [REDACTED 2]: It's habbnin' [9/18/14 12:43 AM] moot: Cracked sent me an email a few days ago [9/18/14 12:43 AM] moot: The same day Zoe issued her article, to be exact [9/18/14 12:43 AM] moot: They told me they are strong supporters of the Social Justice Movement, and are through sitting behind while the harassment goes on [9/18/14 12:44 AM] moot: They said if I didn't stop Gamergate on 4chan, they would write an article that "exposes" 4chan for the "true cesspit" it is. They're also going to basically get feminists to hack in and take down my site. [9/18/14 12:44 AM] moot: And coincidentally, I got a letter that threatened to lynch me in the streets, from a group of hackers who strongly support feminism. [9/18/14 12:44 AM] moot: A day before this, I went to see Anita speak at XOXO, and she was absolutely lovely. Behind the scenes, I got to have a word with her. We hit it off perfect, and we're now friends through online communication. [9/18/14 12:44 AM] moot: I told her my situation, and her advice was to get my mods to delete everything Gamergate on site. [9/18/14 12:44 AM] moot: I was reluctant, but after that day, I did what she said. You all remember the day I told you to delete Gamergate ****, we were convinced it would work. [9/18/14 12:44 AM] moot: But it didn't ****ing work. [9/18/14 12:45 AM] moot: That hacker group is real btw. [9/18/14 12:45 AM] moot: They've been sending more letters to my house, and emails to my personal address. [9/18/14 12:45 AM] moot: Funny thing is, I still support them more than I do Gamergate. [9/18/14 12:45 AM] moot: So, that's why I'm so worried. I got Cracked making threats and a group threatening to take down my site. [9/18/14 12:45 AM] moot: The two are very powerful, and can get done what they say they want to get done. [9/18/14 12:59 AM] [REDACTED 2]: The Internet Aristocrat's real name is ------ - ------- and it turns out he has a real job at ------------. Maybe, we could call him at work and get him fired because of his shameless support of harassment? [9/18/14 12:59 AM] [REDACTED 3]: Holy hell, how did you find that? [9/18/14 1:00 AM] [REDACTED 2]: A friend who used to know him. The Aristocrat's a disgusting human being, he deserves it. [9/18/14 1:00 AM] [REDACTED 10]: We have dox on a lot of Gamergate supporters. [9/18/14 1:00 AM] [REDACTED 10]: Nero and MundaneMatt among others. [9/18/14 1:00 AM] moot: While I don't advocate doxing, maybe this could play into our advantage. [9/18/14 1:00 AM] [REDACTED 5]: Couldn't we just scare the supporters off? [9/18/14 1:00 AM] moot: Scaring them off could take work. [9/18/14 1:00 AM] [REDACTED 6]: Tell them we got dox because they posted in /v/ [9/18/14 1:00 AM] [REDACTED 8]: What the hell, you're not legitimately considering this are you? [9/18/14 1:00 AM] [REDACTED 8]: They could find out it was us. [9/18/14 1:00 AM] [REDACTED 1]: we can use firewalls, lol [9/18/14 1:00 AM] moot: I'm reluctant, but not unwilling to try that. [9/18/14 1:01 AM] [REDACTED 8]: Fine, but what about the people using proxies? [9/18/14 1:01 AM] [REDACTED 5]: There are more people without proxies than people with proxies. [9/18/14 1:01 AM] moot: ^ We can get rid of most of them. [9/18/14 1:01 AM] [REDACTED 5]: I'll work on the idea. Maybe, get in one normie supporter so it looks legit. [9/18/14 1:01 AM] moot: Nice. Sometimes hostility is the answer. Not all the time, but sometimes.
JadedWolf Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 My super secret sources have also supplied a picture of this "moot" character. It's super legit. 3 Never attribute to malice that which can adequately be explained by incompetence.
kirottu Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 It does feel weird that moot would be worried about 4chan's reputation now. Hasn't that ship sailed like years ago? This post is not to be enjoyed, discussed, or referenced on company time.
Blarghagh Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) That sounds fake and I don't care about 4chan either way, but the fact that they are attacking The Escapist is pretty awful. "Join our ranks or die" seems to be the prevailing idea among those supposedly fighting for equality. Did anyone post this yet?

If it was legit then there wouldn't be names redacted as they would be operating under an alias same as moot. All the janitors at 4chan have one and releasing it would had lent credibility as they are all listed on the website.

Blarghagh Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 I'm seeing calls to "boycott gearbox", can anyone explain why? Hardly relevant as I was already boycotting them over Duke Nukem Forever and Aliens: Colonial Marines but I'd like to know what they did this time.
Malcador Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 Anthony Burch is a self righteous wanker who wrote stuff for Borderlands 2. That and maybe Colonial Marines Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra
Blarghagh Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 Be that as it may how is that relevant to GamerGate and corruption among journalists? I'm asking for something more specific here.

Right now it isn't, other than Burch being very involved with the Bloggers and indie devs. More importantly, Polytron is working on a new game called "Where in the world is Phil Fish?"
