Author Topic: #gamergate megathread  (Read 140630 times)

Games journalism still has to do with games.

As for problems with video games: yes on the third page http://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/2o63ji/will_microsoft_pay_indie_developers_their/
And something that has less to do with gaming then gamergate http://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/2o58db/molyneux_kickstarter_is_a_destructive_force_that/

i was talking about this topic and how it's a great example of how gamer gate isn't really about video games anymore

nah it's become nearly exclusively an argument over feminism and sjw and not specifically video games. because it causes so much unwarranted drama on both sides it's banned from r/games (for both not having anything to do with video games themselves and for going against the relatively civilized attitude of the subreddit),

It's been banned from the beginning. Even back when people were talking about Zoe Quinn the moderators were deleting posts.

before people say zoe quinn has nothing to do with gaming, she took down a game jam dedicated to women.

it's anita and zoe's fault for even bringing feminism into the topic in the first place, but its most definitely not an argument about social justice. like everything i see on twitter has to do with video games or anti-gamergaters who happen to all be feminists

Because most of them had to do with witch-hunts and incredibly unpleasant behavior full of vitriol? It's not like that's banned in the rules or anything.

stuff, the witch-hunting even got so bad that 4chan banned gamergate discussion.

Good job mentioning something before the GG discussion ban on r/games.

If this thread is any good example none of the posts since November 19th have mentioned video game mechanics, plot, or production in any way, shape, or form. Which is what r/games is only supposed to be about, incidentally.

because this is a loving gamergate thread. gamergate is about the controversy in gaming media, and the efforts to fix corruption in said media/journalism. apparently for it to be about video games it has to meet a quota of how many posts are about "video game mechanics, plot, or production."

Oh my god are you this loving dense?
4chan has NEVER banned witch hunting before and the community has done FAR WORSE stuff then gamergate.

However: And this is a fact, Moot WAS seen at xoxo con WITH Anita Sarkeesian, and shorty after anything involving gamergate magically got censored.

You are just mindlessly defend SJWs again and again like you have throughout this whole thread. It doesn't matter WHAT we say to you you just plug your ears and pretend it doesn't exist.

have you even seen the loving post by a /pol/ mod stating that he was banning GG discussion because it promoted witch hunting? get your loving facts straight you mongoloid.

the banning of gamergate on r/games is justified because it does nothing but promote drama. it has zero value to video games as a medium at all.

And yet the where PERFECTLY FINE with pol raiding and posting CP on tumblr on the fourth of july.

Are you trying to be handicapped or does it just come naturally for you?

And yet you can't get it past your thick skull that the mods might be lying to you? You have literally contributed nothing to this argument.

1. what loving reason would the mods have for lying?

2. this argument was about whether or not the banning of GG discussion on r/games was justified. forget off.
