In case you're wondering what this place is about.
This place is for all facets of gamergate, including what came before it. Also what will come after it. I intend to be relatively light in moderation if people bother to join in, and if I ever get tired of it, I will hand off to a volunteer instead. Said volunteer will be bound by the same promise I just made.Overall though, there isn't much for me to say. You can join in or not. I just want the dickwaving to end so we can get down to brass tacks.
Dig motherfuckers, dig!
>No digging thread for weeks nowThat ends now. It's time to get back to actual business.

Also, fuck making this a sticky, instead, make digging threads as needed.
#GGatKawa in Saint Louis : March 19, 2016
Hey B&F, I'll be hosting a GamerGate meetup at Kawa Kon in Saint Louis next year! The meetup will be on Saturday, but obviously people can also hangout on Friday and Sunday if they want. So far we have three confirmed attendees, including myself. We had seven people at GGinSTL back in April, let's try to top that for this meetup!
Since this is a convention meetup, you will need a convention badge. If you are interested in attending, please fill out the RSVP form or contact @netscape9 on Twitter for more information.

This Week In GamerGate: 12/22/2015
Weekly GamerGate recap for December 22, 2015.
Sargon & Vivian Livestream
Discussing sexism in geek culture with Sargon of Akkad, CultofVivian, Margaret MacLennan, Meowsticgoesnya & Laurel Marie. Should be a great stream!
You're a faggot and also a homo.
New board?
>>>/pol/2219473
We've been discussing a new board name over in /pol/.
/burgersandfries/ is historically attached to ZQ, who hasn't been relevant since last year.
/gg2/ just sounds like /gg/
We came up with /ggrevolt/
The board has been claimed, and the owner will hand over responsibility to the BO here if you are willing to run that board. Once we have a competent BO, we will start shilling the board.
GG D&C Group Exposed
Hey guys, I know a lot of people are going to hate me for doing this, but I have to expose this. There is a group of people, apparently led by GameDiviner and QuQu who are actively working to destroy GamerGate. If they want to quit GamerGate, that's perfectly fine, but they plan on taking everyone else along with them and killing everything that we have spent the past year fighting for.
That's not to say that GamerGate is perfect, because it isn't. QuQu and GameDiviner have valid complaints about the current state of GamerGate and KotakuInAction, but killing GamerGate isn't the way to move forward. I propose that we work together and reform the problems from within. To do that we're going to need less infighting and more interest in getting work done. Whether that's digging for information, sharing information or simply getting the word out there. Everyone can contribute in their own unique way.
Under normal circumstances I would never leak private messages, but these aren't normal circumstances. I'm not saying the people involved are inherently bad people either, only that they are misguided. At first I tried talking them out of it, but once it became apparent that they had made up their mind, I had to pretend to support their cause in order to extract more information from them, which is regrettable. I actually like some of the people involved, but at the end of the day, I must do what I feel is right and so I must blow the whistle on this.
Myself and others have formed a coalition of our own that is opposed to killing GamerGate. Please stand with us and together we can save GamerGate and work towards a better and brighter future!

GamerGate Voting
Hi B&F, the GamerGate Investigatory Commission is an investigatory group of nine people (three pro, three anti and three neutral) whose mission is to take an unbiased and in-depth look at the GamerGate controversy and writing up an accurate history of the conflict. In other words, we're doing what journalists should have done over a year ago.
Voting for all three slates is open to everyone. The election will run for roughly 24 hours, giving everyone a chance to vote regardless of time zone. Voters are encouraged to vote for their top three candidates in any of the three slates. The three winning candidates in each slate will be given access to the Commission forums, where an Advisory Council will be decided upon and an expanded framework laid out for the Commission.

#GGatArchon - Collinsville, IL
Hi B&G, I will be hosting a GamerGate meetup at Archon in Collinsville, Illinois. The convention goes from October 2 to October 4, though the main GamerGate meetup will be on Saturday (Oct 3rd). Archon is primarily a science fiction and fantasy convention, though they have some gaming, comics and anime content. I would like to coordinate this with our allies in ComicGate and the Sad Puppies. Anyone is welcome to come and feel free to bring friends!
If you are interested, please fill out this form: http://surveynuts.com/surveys/take?id=34858&c=245958065DNDL

GamerGate Census Survey
I have created a census poll for GamerGate supporters from all of the GamerGate communities to fill out. This will be the first time that we have obtained at least somewhat reliable data from across the various GamerGate communities. It also gives us a unique opportunity to look at how GamerGate has evolved over time. If you have a few moments, please take a moment to fill answer these questions. Feel free to skip any questions if they don't apply to you or you don't want to answer them. In a few days I'll create a write-up cataloging the results.
Unfortunately it contains too many question links to post directly to 8chan, but you can fill it out here: http://gamergate.community/t/gamergate-census-survey/2019
New Narrative: GamerGate was never about Quinn, we have always been focused on Grayson
It's likely that SJWs in the press are going to continue to hound GG about there involvement with Zoe Quinn instead of Nathan Grayson, claiming that it is some sort of proof we are a "mysogynistic hate mob that attacks women".
But this narrative is weak. GamerGate has the power to shift it.
Instead of being about Zoe Quinn, start pushing the narrative that it was about Nathan Grayson. Use the same quotes as in the Zoepost, but alter them so that it's about Nathan, thus making their narrative no longer relevent. We could even go so far as to retitle the Zoepost to the Nathanpost. Eron Gjoni is bisexual so it's likely that he will play along with this. Nathan Greaseson is also bi, so it makes for a plausable story.
This will cause the SJWs to choke on their own narrative.
Vox Media Digging Central
We took on Kotaku's parent company Gawker and cost them millions. Time to take on another company; Polygon's parent company Vox Media owned by the JournoList founder Ezra Klein. Uncover the corruption and expose it to light here.

Hey guys whats going on.
Since there was confusion over how I got invovled with /ggrevolt/ over the past few days.
https://8ch.net/ggrevolt/res/767.html
If vote is NO board would either go back to original creator or to HW for "up for grabs" claim.
I'm so tired of the drama/shill mongering/banning with Acid. Freshly arrived immigrants thread go.
Fucking 100 character limit. Turn that shit off and don't make the board 25 pages in length. That's too many pages for the number of people on 8chan.
So is this the new GamerGate board?
Hatred
Eh, I'll keep it short and to the point: Bought it, tried it out on hitbox, and was disappointed. It's not a terrible game, but there isn't much to mock. The gameplay unfortunately is mediocre.
It's an arena shooter masquerading as a murder sim. There's gorier games already out(Like Manhunt 2), and more interesting shooters as well. That being said, the game's not a complete waste, so if you want a somewhat improved Postal with none of the humor, you might enjoy it. The best part is the destructible terrain. The worst part is how difficult it is to see your damn crosshairs in game, which can make life miserable if you're trying to aim.
As you've seen, besides Acidman tripping on the everyone's a shill and I'm banning everyone cocaine train we also enjoyed his friend Hatman trying to shoehorn in gibberish changes at the same time.
The problem: the normies aren't buying it and twitter is on fire attacking him beyond the usual PR narrative idiots e.g.
- Lo Ping
- Remi
The usual.
For how long can Hatman and his anti-GamerGate mods maintain any authority?
Let's Have Some Fun - Bill Maher: Liberals vs Liberals
I ain't American. I'm not a fan of the right in my country (more moderate than Americas). But Bill Maher is on point regarding SJWs creating huge issues in the 'left'.
The GG Developer Boycott Discussion Thread.
In this thread, discuss the merits of boycotting, what kinds of practices you think are worth boycotting, who we should boycott and why and why.
There are no valid arguments against boycotting, at worst, they're a waste of time, not bad or illegal. The only argument brought up against boycotting is that we would lose developer support because it's illegal for them to participate in boycotts.
1. No it's not fucking illegal for a developer to PERSONALLY choose to not support another company, nobody is legally obligated to give their money to other businesses. They could still support GG, but not openly support any GG boycott operations.
2. Why the fuck do we even need developer support? What have they ever done for us? If it's a matter of you guys thinking devs are part of one big clique and that if we go after one the rest will turn on us, then fuck the developers, if they wont stand up to anti-consumer practices than into the trash they go.
If you don't want anything to do with boycotts than don't read the fucking thread.
But it doesn't matter how many fucking times you anti-boycotters are told this, you, never, fucking, listen, so I don't know why I even bother.
At this point I'm convinced you're being willfully ignorant, for reasons I'm not certain but I certainly have my theories…..
Anyway, discuss.
Just got perma-banned again for making a civil boycott discussion thread
Made a thread specifically for constructive discussion about boycotting, also explaining why the arguments against boycotting have no logic behind them.
Got perma-banned for "purposeful shit-stirring"
Acid Kike says today that he's "cracking down on "boycott shills" and that the "roundtable" has begun.
RIP GGHQ

Hello all
/gg2/ Board owner here. Been busy all morning.
Owner of this board is a pretty supreme gentlemen he has done alot of research work in the past (won't go in to details for now)
Given the current situation I am going to start working on compiling a gamergate directory for a sticky post. It will be put up on both my board and on this board as a locked sticky. Will include everything from: https://8ch.net/gamergatehq/res/42693.html
As well as some other things. Also in an effort to slim down on stickies if things get more intense, at least on my board the plan will be to utilize cyclical threads and link them to the directory as opposed to lots of stickies. I believe the same idea may be used here but that will be up to this owner.
Feel free to check out our board as well here:
Acid Fag being a fag
He banned me too.
FUCK YOU
sex workers are people too
http://twitter.com/hashtag/FuckYouSexWorkersArePeopleToo
people need to be made aware, for social justice
recognizing that sex workers are people, and everything else that comes with it, should be a social trend
we can show that we support the sex workers because of Mercedes Carrerra, Joanie Laurer, and also the career of this girl who stands up for sex workers on account of being one
star that moffo
This Board Might be our only hope to escape faggotry! Support the board and star that mofo
So /gg/ and /gamergatehq/ are both trying to wave their dicks around and this board is actually owned by someone sensible and mild-mannered who probably won't shill it actively. If you give a shit about a quality #GamerGate board, you're going to have to fight for this and show people the reality of the situation.
So I heard there were dubs here
"Actually, It's about..."
Figure I might as well sticky Seattle's video here due to the heavy shilling on /pol/ and /gamergatehq/
What's going on?
Plans for E3
So guys we got any plans for E3?
Anyone to look into, companies, speakers, etc?
