PK htiw klaw eriF Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Hahaha. I don't get it. Can you feel how they are grasping at straws? It feels good, man. Looking at what you've publicly done at your job isn't spying. I don't get it.Sort of a pot and kettle thing with Moosa complaining about shaming people online for opinions. I have no idea who that is. I assume they're standard SJW? If so, it is quite funny.

BruceVC Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 (edited) I got about 6 minutes in. I think I deserve recognition for that. Maybe a cookie. Well what Chris says up to 7 minutes is largely accurate, that the initial reasons for the creation of GG was based on a false accusation of collusion between developers and gaming journalists. He correctly dismisses the whole Quinn saga about her sleeping with 5 guys and Grayson only punting her game because she was having sex with him. These are all baseless accusations and were a reason for the foundation of GG so that should tell you something about the merits of the movement? This whole thread really highlights this, the general debate here has nothing to do with ethics in the gaming industry Edited May 8, 2015 by BruceVC "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Fighter Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 As much as you or them keep trying to dismiss the ethics issue. Most of these sites improved their disclosure policies because of Zoe Quinn which disproves that point. Because despite trying to dismiss it they knew a conflict of interest when they saw it. The response to any part of it from journos has everything to do with ethics. This would never have been a thing if not for that. Gamergate was born from the identity politics articles. Zoe would have been forgotten if they didn't go on the attack. This conversation is about what they made it about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonek Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Sleeping with a developer and making undisclosed cash payments to them is a clear conflict of interest for any game journalist, this is not to be argued by anybody with a grasp of ethics, and lying that it is not just makes the liar look like an indoctrinated loon. Of course you could then shift the goalposts when faced by this irrefutable truth, and say that a multi billion dollar industry does not warrant a media that is fit for purpose and ethical, but that is the statement of a halfwit. It's almost like the pathetic attempts to deny the gamers are dead articles were not a hateful attack on those whom play games recreationally, one really needs a vivid imagination to make this statement after reading their hateful and regressive content. Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.I've seen things you people can't even imagine.

Do your own investigation hypocrite this is common knowledge, and i'll not waste my time on satisfying an abuser of womens tiny mind. Yeah I would expect this from you, much easier just to say things and not have to back them up Like your unproven assertion that Mr Grayson is innocent of any unethical behaviour? Please Bruce you can believe your own lies, as i'm sure they let you sleep at night, but don't expect any others to do so. A game journalist has a code of ethics to follow, he should not have a personal relationship of any kind with a game developer, never mind sleeping with one or paying for what follows. This is basic ethics, that can be confirmed by any ethics professor or anybody possessing a journalism degree. This should be simple to comprehend for a child or even you.
