SHITPOSTING MEGATHREAD: Post Waifus Edition
This thread is a special sticky thread for the purpose of keeping the board catalog tidy by containing gossip, drama, and shitposting.
What goes in this thread:
>Minor SJW news or stories that don't have national impact
>SJW issues that aren't games industry related and that are not operations or digging.
>Twitter gossip that doesn't materially affect #GG
>E-celeb or board drama of a personal nature
Warning: This thread may have content that is Not Safe For Work!
If you feel a thread has extraordinary merit that should be granted an exception from above, you can request a pass by posting it here and reporting the post for mod attention.

Welcome, and have fun!
The #GamerGate Twitter Thread
THE GAMERGATE HASHTAG:
https://twitter.com/search?q=%23GamerGate&src=savs
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
This thread is for the following things:
>Tracking the progress of the #GamerGate hashtag.
>Sharing Twitter account handles so anons can follow each other.
>Pointing out trending tags and HAPPENINGS that may be relevant to #GG and #NYS.
>Discussing Twitter etiquette, including how to keep your sanity while using their service.
>Shilling relevant Tweets from you and others in #GG so anons can Heart/Retweet them for increased exposure.
>Find targets to monitor. Indie clique members, corrupt journalists, well-connected SJWs causing problems are good examples. Post their social media information here and use
to archive their stuff.
WHAT YOU CAN DO TO PARTICIPATE
Click the link at the top of this OP and scroll through the traffic in the tag. Heart and (more importantly) RETWEET anything that concerns shitty games media, gaming issues, exposing SJW bullshit, etc. Make your own tweets using the tag and post a link here to get them spread (if they're good).
I don't have a Twitter / I left Twitter
Make a new one.
The importance of our ability to spread #GG info to the masses can not be overstated.
Dodge the Blockbots!
With your new account, you should AVOID following the following accounts:
@Grummz
@Nero
@CHSommers
as that will trigger the #GG Autoblocker and prevent you from engaging with many journos and others duped into using it. Even oldschool Twitter vet anons would be well advised to make a new Twitter and reboot.
Twitter is also a Salt Mining enterprise!
When you see hostiles, get them talking. Get them making asses out of themselves and archive it for all the world to see. Share and link to screencaps and archives of it.
Follow friendlies!
In the #GamerGate tag link at the top of this post you will see many of your brothers and sisters posting. If you like what they say, follow them and ask them to follow you. #OPSkyNet is a hashtag for #GG to follow each other, but use it sparingly as it can cause unintended consequences.
Avoid Social Media Cancer.
Stay out of private groups and cliques. Remember, be reasonable when arguing with SJWs - you will never convince THEM, but the AUDIENCE looking on at you will judge both sides. Let the SJWs be the assholes and keep your own nose clean.
>Be clear.
>Be concise.
>Bring evidence.
>Keep your cool.
>Avoid arguing with trolls and faggots.
>Keep to the issues!

OBSERVATION TIME!
Alright, so we haveb a few of the old advertisers left and a handful of new, big names.
It appears that Gawker's advertising network has dwindled down to the biggest brand advertisers, probably hedging their bets that these companies are too big to be easily swayed by an anonymous email campaign. Instead of tons of smaller advertisers, the list is almost exclusively the Big Boys club - car makers, credit card companies (it took a year to get Discover to drop) and of course, fucking Amazon - Gawkers most steadfast partners and the only ones still there from the early days of DISNOD.
But sway them we must. Gather contact information and compile tactics and evidence in this thread, then spread the thread link to the hubs and social media.
LET'S MAKE SURE GAWKER DOESN'T HAVE THE CASH TO PAY FOR AN APPEAL!
DEUS VULT!

>During that time, we exposed a severe vulnerability in relying on Archive.is.
>The cited reason for the pulldown of the site was archived pages containing CP keep showing up.
>After much arguing and drama, the 8chan archives were reinstated.

I want to do something similar for /gamergate/ and GGHQ, for Deepfreeze links, and Wiki citations. We can worry about hosting later. If we lose Archive.is, we lose everything.
Help in this Herculean effort would be incredibly appreciated!

Quote: "The incident was highlighted by Kamina Vincent, editor at Tin Man Games, when she shared on Twitter photos of the event taken by her friend who was in attendance. The original photos have since been removed from her feed and replaced with blurred images to protect the identity of the dancers."

So… Time to start revving up those e-mails?
Shouldn't R. Mika be a SJW heroine?
I thought SJWs supported diversity and "body positivity" for women. They support that right?
Well, look at Mika. She's big 'n thick. As far I can tell, while Mika might not be fat her body isn't what you'd call standard as for as foxy ladies go. Going from all the porn she gets and comments on places like Youtube I guess she shows you don't need to be skinny to hot.

helsea "Liar" Valkenburg v Eron "Cuck" Gjoni: 1A Boogaloo
It's not over until the fat queef Quinn sings.
>I think this order violates the First Amendment, and I filed a friend-of-the-court brief so arguing, on behalf of Prof. Aaron Caplan (author of “Free Speech and Civil Harassment Orders,” 64 Hastings L.J. 781 (2013)) and me (as author of “One-To-One Speech vs. One-To-Many Speech, Criminal Harassment Laws, and ‘Cyberstalking,'” 107 Nw. U. L. Rev. 731 (2013)); Daniel Lyne and Ted Folkman of Murphy & King were kind enough to serve as our pro bono counsel. I quote the brief below, though you can also read the PDF version.
>Restricting Gjoni’s speech about Van Valkerburg also unconstitutionally restricts Gjoni’s speech about himself and his own life. The injunction, for instance, limits Gjoni’s ability to publicly discuss this litigation or the injunction itself. Gjoni cannot discuss his case without including some “information about” Van Valkerburg, including about her “personal life” — such as her name, their past romantic relationship, and the fact that she sought an injunction against him.
>Likewise, when people condemn Gjoni online for allegedly acting badly by writing about Van Valkerburg, the injunction limits Gjoni from explaining why he thought his statements were fair and justified. And if Gjoni wants to tell his friends and acquaintances, in an online journal or on his Facebook page, how he feels about romantic relationships or why he is cautious about a new relationship, he cannot do so if the explanation would mention Van Valkerburg.
>Most of these cases have been trial court orders, which were either unappealed or reversed on appeal. They may have been entered without adequate First Amendment briefing — such inadequate briefing is not uncommon in state trial courts, especially in civil injunction cases, where the defendant speaker may not be represented by counsel. And many trial court judges may generally not be familiar with First Amendment doctrine, which only rarely arises in their courts. This is why it is especially important for appellate courts, such as this Court, to clearly indicate to trial courts that broad injunctions such as the one in this case violate the First Amendment.

they had a kickstarter for $185322 and are already passed the deadline, the lead dev has spent most of his time trying to create controversy like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRR-qRGhaRU and there have been threads on 4chan about him lately being immoral with money, partying with zoe Quinn, etc.
perhaps some digging is in order, if only to make sure gg is not associated with someone pro-rape as that is fuel for sjws on us

He's pretty much a literally who to most people but Matt Lees really harshes my mellows. I followed him and his work for years before GamerGate and he came off as someone who not only knew what he was talking about, but was also a pretty funny guy.

Note how this article, written by Orselli, no less, shits on consumers who are less than pleased with the dev's handling of his kikestarter. This shit, along with the positive tone of the other articles, looks an awful lot like nepotism to me. This is the same kind of shit Grayson pulled with LW.
Wikidrama General

* Wikipedia bans three editors for supporting NPOV on Frank Gaffney's BLP
* TVTropes bans nonfeminists
NUKE GAWKER FROM ORBIT
I'm going to be Joker right now.
We all know the Gawker Media net worth is $300m or less because of Wikipedia but they aren't going to say what Gawker is worth today…
Someone suggested me for us to revive Operation Disrespectful Nod to kill Gawker at once.
Why? Well, it's because of this: http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&URL=0700-0799/0768/Sections/0768.73.html
Award of punitive damages may not exceed the greater of 3 times the amount of compensatory damages awarded.
What this mean? This mean Gawker might need to pay 3x times of $115 million dollars!
BUT WAIT A SECOND! HERE COME THE BEST PART!
Where the fact finder determines that the wrongful conduct proven under this section was motivated solely by unreasonable financial gain and determines that the unreasonably dangerous nature of the conduct, together with the high likelihood of injury resulting from the conduct, was actually known by the managing agent, director, officer, or other person responsible for making policy decisions on behalf of the defendant, it may award an amount of punitive damages not to exceed the greater of four times the amount of compensatory damages awarded.
4x TIMES OF $115 MILLIONS! THAT WOULD KILL GAWKER AND NOBODY WOULD WANT TO BUY IT.
Even if they want to buy Gawker, the value would be way lower than the net worth of Gawker, maybe 150 millions or less.
NUKE GAWKER

The destruction of wikipedia goes mainstream
In case you niggas missed it the newyorker did a piece sucking up to a group of useless shits who are vandalizing wikipedia in the open because "feminism"
Some choice quotes
>main objective: to combat Wikipedia’s well-documented gender gap
>well-documented
Really? how about a source? or a link? I mean its "well-documented" right? or you just pulled that shit off your ass?
>In spite of the site’s ostensibly egalitarian, accessible format, more than ninety per cent of its editors are male
Maybe because they are the only ones putting the effort? again being a wiki editor is not something to be proud of so I wouldn't be surprised if most women just go for something more rewarding instead, like an actual paying job
>Many causes have been suggested for this, from Wikipedia’s code-heavy editing interface
>code-heavy
You fucking kidding me right? did this retard even bother to click edit in an article to see the wysiwyg UI? most blogs are MORE code-heavy, and yet there are tons of women bloggers, why?
Maybe because writing shit like this article is actually a PAID job?
>sometimes hostile user culture
Yeah no shit, maybe because of these gangs of feminazis destroying articles?
>Note that the entry for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, a fictional team of martial-artist reptiles, is twice the length of the entry for Toni Morrison, a real-life Nobel Prize-winning author
Now this is what I call a bullshit argument, has the author even bothered to ponder that TMNT being a pop-culture phenomenon has always been more popular?
But hey don't let reality get in the way of clickbait!

League of Legends champion designer Daniel Z. Klein says anyone who is or associates wit
Daniel Z. Klein, a senior Riot Games employee and designer of League of Legends champions (Tahm Kench, Azir, Lucian, Xerath) has come out in an extremely vocal fashion against GamerGate supporters and is calling anyone who's even friends with a GamerGate supporter a "monster."
He tweeted: "This is your daily reminder that GG still exists and still is a cesspool of the most awful human beings."
"I don't care what your politics are, if you associate yourself with monsters, you're a monster."

He's following @ArchivistBecks' lead, who is also a Riot Games employee. She tweeted the following:
"GGers are criminals. I wish them nothing but pain & misery. Our industry is better if they're driven ou entirely."
"There isn't a single GGer I wouldn't laugh at if they were on fire. No regrets. Wishing rape on rape survivors makes them ALL SCUM."
"The best thing that would ever happen to gaming is for every GGer to be locked up like the criminal trash they are."

GG should launch a feminist gaming site
>Should GamerGate supporters launch a feminist gaming site?
Obviously there is at least some desire for a feminist take on gaming and right now virtually all of the feminist gaming sites are unethical, rely on clickbait, promote (or make excuses for) censorship and in many cases even promote hate and intolerance. This niche feminist sentiment isn't just going to go away, nor should it. In my eyes, all viewpoints on gaming should be welcome as long as they are ethical and don't promote censorship.
Rather than maintaining the status quo, feminist-leaning GamerGate supporters should found their own feminist gaming website. A gaming website that will review and critique games from a feminist lens, but do so ethically, without clickbait and without promoting censorship. This has been done before with ideological sites like Christ Centered Gamer, so I don't see why it can't be done with feminism or virtually any other ideology.
This pro-GamerGate feminist site would provide a method for this niche feminist sentiment to be channeled in a healthy manner and by people who actually care about gaming. Obviously such a site would not be immune from criticism should they make mistakes, just as we should (and do) hold Breitbart accountable when they make mistakes. However, we would be able to create a healthy medium by which feminist game reviews and articles could be published, without the extremism and hate that so often come with the anti-GamerGate leaning feminist sites.
What are your thoughts on this proposal?

SJW Nightmare at SXSW
The "Harassment Summit" at SXSW was a total disaster for them. This was their chance to plead their case to the world, but they were instead met with an empty auditorium.

A letter from South Korea; THIS IS YOUR FUTURE
Hello, the original gookfag here. It's been a while since I wrote this posts in the image. Here's some archives. I wrote some helpful posts in these thread so read them if you interest in Korean affair.
I make this thread to warn you. To warn you that this might really happen in your countries. I feel the happening is nigh. Especially in US.
I'm a former political member and my family served the current ruling party since 70's. I know what i'm saying.
There's some well-known rumor in South Korea among the politic scens in Korea since 60's. The rumor is that the South Korea is political & social experimental field for western investors. A test field for various social experiments.
They say we got the fastest internet in the world because the rich westerners want to see side effects of sudden digital information days. They say we got a female president because they want to see side effects of fanatic social Neo-Feminism.
There is no dominant evidence to back this rumor. But I want to make sure one thing. Every major social events and economic affairs in Korea happens in other countries as well after times. I've seen it all.
And I think these Social Justice & Neo-Feminism is the next event they're experimenting in Korea. The experiment is over when we elected a female president and the introduction to the western country is nigh.
Here's the story.
South Korea's Social Justice and the big brother censorship pretty much escalated into sky high right after we elected the female president, Park in 2013. As you can see from the image, the censorship level of S.Korea is just insane.
A self acclaimed 'Feminist' female president is in charge in Korea currently and we live in SJW dystopia right now.
Countless batshit-insane laws about protect women and children has been implanted. Basically you go prison for at least 5 years and registered as child sex offender if you watch Japanese hentai.
The new Korean anti-porn and the child protection law prohibits any of fictional porns about children. They all threated same as actual child rapists or even worse. You go prison if you see Hentai of any kind of porns that the actor or character 'Seem' to appears as underage.
Because of this insane anti-porn law called '아청법', 15 years old mid-school girl registered as sex offender because she watched Yaoi novel on the internet. 70 years old grandma had to sell her own PC-cafe to pay penalty because a Japanese Hentai manga found one of her PC. She's now homeless and registered as sex offender.
More funny thing is, the porn threated as more heavier crime than the actual rape in Korea. 3 years minimum for rapists and 5 years minimum for porn possesion. 45 of rapists ended up being just suspended sentence but less than a 10% for porn possesion.

https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=ko&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Farchive.is%2FXlJCX
This law has been introduced right after election of female president and being praised as the most notable triumph of Park's administration.
I talk you about this law not just because it's crazy insane law, but there are more hidden agenda in this law. This law isn't just about Social Justice movement. Perid.
Last month, anomymous whistle blower revealed that the offficial Hacking & Spyware tool by South Korean National Intelligence Service, has abaility to implant "Child Porn" into any citizen's device.

Gamer-friendly media outlets?
Hi! I've been interested in GG for a while, but I have a horrible confession to make; Rock-paper-shotgun is my go-to source for gaming news, especially on indie titles. It's come through for me many times, despite the massive amount of clickbait on that site in recent years, and I've yet to find a good gamer-friendly alternative that is as frequently updated.
I feel guilty for enjoying the content of such fuckheads, and would very much appreciate all of your advice on better places to get gaming news (ideally with an indie slant) minus the SJW bullshit. I already browse their site with ad-block and ghostery, but I still feel scummy for even being compelled to visit, but I'm afraid it's an addiction at this point…
Any advice? This thread can also be a place to recommend good gamer(gate) friendly media outlets that aren't complete shit.

#TrumpRally: The Violent Nature Of The Left Exposed
VIDEO "#TrumpRally: The Violent Nature Of The Left Exposed"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mh3Q6SqAYaM
On Friday 11 March, Far-Left extremist agitators attacked a Trump Rally in Chicago, Illinois. Among them were Black Lives Matters, Move.org and RevCom.us. All of which are openly Communistic in their foundations. Some even funded by the billionaire George Soros. This collective not only falsely portrays Donald Trump as a tyrant but also declares the very idea of 'Whiteness' as their global enemy. With their billionaire funding, Marxist agitators were able to flood the arena, planning to rush the stage when Trump made his speech but word quickly spread of the possible violence and the Trump team pulled the plug. When the cancellation was announced, the agitators immediately began tearing up Trump signs and grew increasingly hostile towards the Trump supporters within the building. Outside, Trump supporters were unable to leave the arena due to the exists being blocked. Freeways were hijacked and emergency services were attacked and prevented from doing their job. Stories quickly spread of groups of black youths asking people at transportation areas if they supported Trump, intimidating anyone who said they did. Communist flags, Mexican flags and Bernie signs were proudly displayed while American flags was stamped upon. The agitators battled with the police as they sought to spit, harass and scream at Trump supporters attempting to leave. The agitators justified their presence and hostility with out of context quotes taken from Trump while other Conservative candidates weakly defended the Marxist agitators, all for a swipe at their main competitor.
At another Trump Rally the next morning at Dayton, Ohio, Thomas Dimassimo attempted to rush the stage as Trump was speaking but was swiftly put down by secret service agents. Dimassimo, an ethnomasochist Marxist, denies any intentions of doing any physical harm to Trump yet said he wanted to take the mic from him which at least require some degree of force. He earlier replied to a tweet asking him if he would punch him and Tommy replied "We Gone See". Like most Marxist agitators that claim to speak for the working class, Tommy comes from a upper class background yet uses ebonic ghetto speak despite being a well educated actor. Both his parents are executives and his mother is a public official. He also supports Bernie Sanders.
The media has an open agenda against Trump and is trying to spin the scenario around and claim it his fault for the violence. But this is a blatant mistruth: violence is the lifeblood of Communism. Almost never able to win democratic elections, communists throughout history have achieved power through extreme violent insurrection and mass intimidation. This event was no different. This was an attack upon the democratic process, upon people who view the world differently and whose intentions were to intimidate normal everyday people who dared to vote Trump.
In reaction, a grassroots Trump Vanguard was setup to defend Trump supporters from future violence but the loose organization was quickly shut down as its creators was identified and had their family threatened. The notion of #RedCap defenders has not died, some are organizing but it is unlikely that the same tactics of the communist aggressors will work again any time soon.
Regardless, this will likely only be the first of many attempts by well funded upper class communists and their ethnic pets to harass and intimidate non conforming voters. The great divide is growing wider and sides will have to be chosen. There will be #NoMiddleGround.
As always,
Accept Reality,
Embrace Conflict,
Face Consequence.

OPERATION: Trans Pacific Shitstorm
The TPP is coming people
This deal has been in the shadows for months, but we have one clean shot to kill it for good. The Bill does have a 60-public reading period where criticisms have a chance to flourish against the bill. Our mission:
WE MUST OVERREACT IMMEDIATELY
We've only scrapped the surface of how much of our shit this can kill (online downloads, mods, chans, doujiins, cosplay,…list goes on) on top of corporations being able to sue governments more liberally. This is SOPA and PIPA back and worse than it's ever been.
Fight the good fight, email your senators, post on social media, trend a hashtag, don't let a single politcian think they can keep their chair touching this
Can't we make the SJW's boycott Google
Yeah because Google hired Moot. So I guess we could try making them flip their shit at Google. Which helps us because Google is a fag (anti-gg, blocks 8ch.)

Maybe we could do #fuckgoogle

And Here is Anita asking for more money to keep things ad free. She is advertising herself to push out other ads. This is so fucking meta I can barely wrap my head around it.

GDC 2016 - Infographic and Data Thread
Alright, faggots.
GDC is closing in.
As you can see, it starts on the 14th and ends on the 18th.
Things to do
> pile up infographics related to the subject
> share all the infographics you have
> gather information pertaining GDC and corruption
> make fresh OC in two days.
The task is to inform people about corruption in the GDC.
Guidelines for storming the twitterfront is as follows.
GDC, whilst having corrupt elements, also has a few neutrals and legit game developers.
Do not spill your spaghetti. We're there to inform people, not demonize them.

wasn't this person making fun of white genocide a month or two ago? its fun seeing cuckservatives and cultural marxists eat each other up
Abused ignorants
My subject is this: The manosphere (anti-feminism, MRA, PUA, TRP) is the establishment? A new form of totalitarianism? One that has a lot of power to start considering a threat?
I found funny how during gamergate many of these humans believed they where fighting against censorship, but they where the only ones who censor the opponents of the movement!
I feel like I don't have any freedom in imageboards (and, again, feminism never take away my freedom, they did it), I know it sound something big, but here's the thing; If I post that I read Chomsky, they atack me, if I made a comment on a left-wing site that has not relation with this movement, they come and spam it. Almost every thing that has some relation to non-manosphere ideas, they come and censor everything.
If this movement continues to grow, what would happen in 5, 10 years? Would there be any non-fascist space around?
Every tenet they fight for; they are the ones who created it, or they practice it, but the opponent doesn't.
I once read I fake post, saying something like "CIA could create feminism"…the funny thing to this, is that the US government has only created counter-movements against the left; Contra in latin america? Gaddafi? Iraq war?
They are doing it in front of us: http://www.appliedmemeticsllc.com/
I want to start being paranoid and conspiracist; the same thing applied at the inverse: how do we know the new right movement was created because of the fear that the left was gaining momentum?
Look at the "fathers" of this movement…if this is not in relation with the government…the quantity of money they make out of ads…probably millions per year; enough to think about their intentions.

About the Alison Rapp Fiasco
That is not her place to bring up those kind of politics at all. Especially considering who she works for. It's one thing if you're a law professor, or a lawyer in some big firm.
But this is Nintendo. A goddamn video game company. We don't turn to Nintendo for political and social discourse; that is what talk radio is there for. We turn to Nintendo to play some goddamn video games. To help us temporarily escape from the bullshit of the real world. Not remind us of how much it sucks.
I would discuss the stupid whore's points, but at this rate, it's neither here nor there.
Whether I agree with them or not is also neither here nor there, because it's not her place, or position to talk these kind of politics as long as she's with Nintendo.

Ok so I go to youtube today and find out that vid related is happening. I don't know what the fuck is going on over there but apparently several youtube partners have suddenly had nearly all of their features, including monetization, revoked seemingly over a DMCA strike. Not only this, but YT is throwing up all sorts of red tape on the affected users for no goddamn reason. I smell bureaucratic bullshit, what about you?

Digging Thread On IGDA Board Member
https://voat.co/v/GamerGate/comments/904829
Time to expose some cancer in the industry for what it is.
So basically Sheri Graner Ray is an upper middle class woman that makes speeches as a "woman in games" at GDC, Pax, SXSW, Captivate Conference, etc, that pushes the narrative out in Austin. There is just one small problem….. This woman doesn't actually produce any games on her own, and only worked as a "designer" for Sony 11 years ago. Her resume consists of mostly bottom tier mobile games companies and her own shell company for the past 11 years. She has mostly fluff on her resume and short term credits for games probably based on nepotism and networking. So she goes to industry events as some type of bigwig and expert and her career in the industry is solely based on networking and connections.
I strongly dislike people like her because she can easily afford classes to become a real game developer, instead she wastes her money on sports cars literally, and spends all of her time networking instead of actually making any games. She even knows and is friends with the local instructors that teach game programming and game art at Austin Community College, and the instructors at UT Austin Denius Sams Gaming Academy. So she goes around to all these conferences as another crappy designer with no technical skills pushing the narrative. Everything is solely based on networking with this woman.
Classes would have only costed her a few thousand dollars out in Austin and she blows it on sports cars. These entitled people think they deserve to be designers and devs at AAA companies when they have no skills basically and wasted everything on sports cars. I despise what they stand for.
Who You Gonna Call? Cisbusters!
Movie doesn't come out until July 2016. Still, I think this could be a water shed event in the war against the SJWs? Why? Well, this is obviously certain people trying to co-opt something that is generically male and change it into a feminist film. The director got the job pretty much from just bitching on Twitter that people were my soggy knees for not thinking there should be a female Ghostbustes movie. He has also recently been shitting on Ghostbusters fans on Twitter for trashing the movie, again calling them my soggy knees. Like the general concept of female Ghostbusters or not, it now has a politically correct feminist undercurrent just from all that.
In /cow/, there was a leak from the production crew that suggested the studio and even much of the cast thinks the movie sucks and are pretty sure it's going to fail. However, despite this, the feminist blogosphere has invested a lot in the idea that this movie will succeed.
We've seen this before recently. The new Fantastic Four shit on the fans and had a character's race changed for a diversity quota, and it tanked hard. So what happens when this movie tanks? I think Hollywood, and by virtue much of the entertainment business, may get wise to the idea that SJWs and internet feminazis are all talk and don't actually financially support anything. I wouldn't disagree that Hollywood is ran by Jews, but they're people that like money. They're not going to put political nonsense before money. So this will be a significant deal I think that could ripple through a lot of the entertainment industry.

8chan reference on Arrow?
I think Arrow had an 8chan reference a couple of weeks ago. Felicity, the show's computer wiz, was confined to a wheelchair because of a spinal injury after being shot. She suggests that her new codename should be Hotwheels! (They eventually go with "Overwatch" though.)
Shoutouts to Snark & Tim
I just recently found out these two are included in the special thanks in this game FIREWATCH its a walking simulator in case you were wondering what kind of game it is.
Now this brings up an important question would you still play a game even if the people who made the game look up to someone like Anita or Tim?would you instantly look at it with disgust even if they played no role whatsoever in the development and were merely added there to the credits as a Shout-out?
birth rape... I can't even make this shit up.
so the feminist fringe have now declared every doctor, nurse and midwife who assists with child birth to be rapists. this comes from an artical on that feminazi cesspool of the Gawker, Jezzibel, because of course it would be THEM!

Anita speaking at CSUN
God-fucking Dammit, she's going to my school.
>Anita's work focuses on deconstructing the stereotypes and tropes associated with women in popular culture as well as highlighting issues surrounding the targeted harassment of women in online and gaming spaces. Anita earned her bachelor’s degree in Communication Studies at CSUN and her Master’s degree in Social and Political Thought at York University. In 2012 she was targeted by an online harassment campaign following her launch of a Kickstarter project to fund the Tropes vs. Women in Video Games series.
Well, /gg/, who wants to see what she has to say?

Moving Forward
With the failure of NEXT and the reassertion of 8chan in its current form, as well as the recent repairs to the vichan software (the site now runs more like it did at the beginning, with much fewer errors) its time for the board to look forward to the future again.
Several projects were put on hiatus when the Next migration was announced and the site errors began to accumulate.
Digging Generals.
Digger training.
#GG interviews.
Event nights.
Recap and update streams.
Daily goals and OPERATIONS.
These things are going to come back to the forefront of the board and off the back burner. We have a cause to fight for and a war to win.
We've taken our licks, but like any good raid team we have long ago learned to come back from the occasional wipe - stronger and more resolved. You anons have stuck with this board through good times and bad, through shills, through board wars, through pointless and petty drama of every demoralizing stripe.
I'm still just a faggot, but I'm proud of and indebted to every last one of you.
Let's get the word out.
Do you have a Twitter? A Firefly Tumblr? A Disqus account? Go throw out a call to our wayward anons that 8chan is recovering. Get the word out to normalfriends that there is still a place to take the fight to shitty media and their SJW cronies.
Remind them that all through this thing - the closest thing the Internet could ever call a World War, #Gamergate's banner is still flying here.
We have a site. We have a board. We have our autism. We have a voice.
Let's get to work.

- I'm currently looking for an automated way to rotate the featured article. If you know how, please share.
- Despite my efforts, I couldn't apply short URLs nor an appropriate 404 page (currently it redirects to my main site).
- Barring some 6 or 7 pics missing, which I already accounted for, the wiki should initially be identical to the one at gamergatewiki.com
- Requires registration in a rather quixotic attempt to keep shills away.

in light of the recent revelation that twitter is now stealth banning people I now propose that on Friday the 26th 6:00 est, we engage #OpLicencelessTweeter. #OpLicencelessTweeter is discuses in more detail in this post and replies.
the general gist of it is that on that on that day on that time we all post derogatory(not edgy, you know the difference) yet truthful comments in the tag #BanMeNow in an attempt to deliberately get our account shadow banned so that we can red-pill normies who will find sympathy for the guys trying to stand up to twitters unreasonableness, make twitter mods and report button shills overwhelmed with the shear numbers of problematic tweets, make twitter mods responsible for deleting the accounts of 6 million ex-paying customers (essentially quickening their ride to bankruptcy) in a shoah of epic proportions and get the point across to twitter that their cyber violence will not be tolerated.
Twitter Shadowbanning is real.
http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2016/02/16/exclusive-twitter-shadowbanning-is-real-say-inside-sources/
We need to make a new operation and make this trend. Maybe as a parallel operation to Torrential Downpour.
What happened to @ShuluuMoo?
What happened to best girl GG?
She was probably the best one in the trinity that went for that Huffingtonpost interview.
Bharaj and Young are still around but where did ShuluuMoo go? Did SJWs harass her and dox her so she deleted her accounts and stuff?
Update!
Hi guys, webcomic creator here. GamerGate helped me out a year ago winning a certain webcomic contest.
But now I'm not allowed into the special indie comic clique any longer.
Hahaha, no, but just wanted to give an update and say I'm doing fantastic, and I won this years awards! First place, and 3,000 Dollar price! So thank you for your help back in the day, I was really low at that point, and I really needed that confidence boost that you gave me, after I got fired.
Collecting narrative cracking info.
I'm sure we all heard muh narrative:
>muh harassment
>straight white males in vidya only
>More wymn play than teenage boys or otherwise trying to frame a narrative of gurl gamers getting kept out.
And so on. Well I figured, how about we collect whatever info we find to crack the narrative?
I'll start:

Ruling today in Toronto social media "harassment" case
>The outcome of what's believed to be the first criminal harassment case in Canada involving Twitter will help set the tone for how the courts and society navigate the nuances of online interaction, observers said Thursday.
>A verdict is expected Friday in the Ontario Court of Justice trial of Gregory Alan Elliott, a Toronto man facing two charges of criminal harassment over his dealings with two local women's rights activists on Twitter.
http://www.freedomoftweets.ca/
>If you live in Toronto, you've almost certainly seen Gregory Alan Elliott’s art. He is a prolific street artist and graphic designer known for producing motivational artwork. His work has been featured by the Toronto Star.
>In November 2012, Elliott was arrested and charged with criminal harassment after arguing with several activists on Twitter. He didn't threaten or endanger anyone. All he did was argue.
>As a result of his detention and trial, Greg has accumulated nearly one hundred thousand dollars in legal fees. He has been prohibited from using computers and the Internet and forced to leave his job.
>Gregory Alan Elliott lives in Toronto with his four sons. He is currently awaiting the final verdict in his trial.
WINNING but some concerns
Specifically why is NPR shilling for John Flynt? Yeah I know, liberals, but here me out, there has to be more to this.
There's also a bunch of other slightly more mainstream outlets butthurt about the court case like the Washington Examiner.
Help American McGee's Sister
Hey guys,
American McGee is in real need of help.
His sister has been missing since 11/10 and there is no trace of her. His family suspect foul play after he received Anti-GG threats that named her specifically. The police do not seem to be helping much.
She is a mother of three and lives in the Dallas, TX area. If there are any Texas bros that can share this info or digg for info, I'm sure it would help a but. Futhermre, if there are anyone here with family or friends in law enforcement, please consider passing this plea for help to him.

Putting together a team of programmers to help create the tool to make shadowbanning expensive
I've received overwhelming support for this analysis of Twitter's shadowbanning apparatus, not just in the form of accolades, but in offering to program the tool to counter this apparatus. (https://www.red*dit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/46bptk/yes_yes_everyone_here_is_a_moral_paragon_who_isnt/)
If you know JavaScript, SQL, sentiment analysis, Bayesian filters, natural language generation, Twitter API, devops, deployment, cloud services, or git, please private message me on Reddit via https://www.red*dit.com/user/HistoryOfGamerHatred/ with a throwaway email (via GuerillaMail https://www.guerrillamail.com/)

GGBlocker 1.3.3 Released
Chrome Web Store link:https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ggblocker/aabmoedabiliejlieonfephdoncnailk
tl;dr: Switches to archive.is, adds filter importing/exporting and deletion, improves archive.is with helpful buttons. Has jokes.
Changes
=Version 1.3.3 Patch=
Removed 4chan.org from default filter list.
Tweaked tool button sizes to compensate for users running resolutions < 1080p. IT'S CURRENT_YEAR FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE! ===Version 1.3.2 Update===
Switched default archive url to archive.is.
All archive.is pages now have a "Fetch Fresher Page" link.
Added the ability to delete filters. (finally).
Added basic update message functionality.
Added Tool Section inside of "Edit Filters".
Added tool for deleting all filters.
Added tool for exporting list of filters.
Added tool for importing list of filters.
Added tool for reseting filter list to default.
Added two bad jokes which I think are hilarious at this time of night.
Permissions Note Some users on Twitter have mentioned that this version of GGBlocker is requesting more permissions than previous versions. I think that this is due to changes in Chrome and the Web Store. I have uploaded the source for v1.2.1 to gitgud.io so people can check out the changes if they'd like. Here is a screenshot of a diff on the manifest: http://i.imgur.com/lJNqyjv.jpg
The permissions that are requested are sensible IMHO. GGBlocker needs to read every webrequest to block site. It needs to write into sites to add helper buttons to archive.is.

Crash Override Network
Saw some TORnon talking about CON in the offtopic general (>>281680). Decided to make a thread because I'm autistic and can't find shit in the catalog. CON is Ms. Quinn's anti hate group. According to Wikipedia (https://archive.is/XtaRN) they're a "Pro bono support group for victims," however with Ms.Quinn's past in hell dump I wonder how much of her anti hate group is truthfully helpful. She links to her patreon (https://archive.is/FyFF2) and makes well over 3000 dollars a month, yet no one else's is mentioned. This implies Ms.Quinn's the main beneficiary of any and all donations–a literal "con" if you will. This makes me question who and what is actively helping her, overall, outside of the obvious parties.
Looking at Ms.Quinn's past, I noticed things that feel… preplanned.
> Congress (https://archive.is/kp8i3)
> Google (https://archive.is/hpdJC)
> UN (https://archive.is/mTdnY)
Quite an odd career path for a compulsive and chronic abuser who, by their own logic, raped their ex-boyfriend. So, GamerGate, what can you tell me about Ms.Quinn's Crash Override Network? What digging have you done? Is this just a massive conspiracy by Ms.Quinn to spread disinformation so others can be more easily doxed? Have you look at the self dox guide posted by con (https://archive.is/xo9lT)?
Now looking at what TORnon said, alternatives would be a good way to help dismantle and disprove CON, yet normies seem to lap up anything their news feeds or the talking heads on the TV say. If we were to start a campaign and offer up alternatives like Paranoidsbible (paranoidsbible.tumblr.com) or School of privacy (school-of-privacy.com) to normies, how would we go about showing them as being the betters of CON? School of privacy seems a bit too technical. Paranoidsbible is fine but doesn't seem to have the presence. One we can solve easily with boosting it across social media while the other we can't actively doing anything about.
So, what says you GamerGate?
ZQ/Chelsea has her hooks in Stolen/Famous twitter profile trading app
ALART ALART
>A month ago, after one of the worst weeks of his life, Siqi Chen received a message from an unlikely source. Chen is the CEO of the company behind Stolen, a controversial game that let users buy and sell Twitter profiles like trading cards. Each user started with virtual currency that could be used to "buy" others; rapid buying and selling bidded up the price on popular profiles. After an initial surge in popularity, the game came under criticism for allowing people’s profiles to be traded and commented on without their consent. Facing a barrage of criticism over the game’s potential to enable abuse, Chen pulled Stolen from the App Store on January 14th.
>Three days later, the direct message arrived on Twitter. It was from Zoe Quinn, the game developer, writer, and activist. Quinn was the original target of Gamergate, the campaign of harassment against women in the video game industry. The movement began in August 2014 after Quinn’s ex-boyfriend wrote a long, acrimonious, and inaccurate blog post about her; she subsequently became subject to doxxing and death threats. Today she runs Crash Override, a network of experts who offer support to victims of abuse.
>Early in Stolen’s life, Quinn had sent the company a sharply worded note asking to have her profile removed from the game. (It quickly complied.) But Quinn’s message to Chen that Sunday morning was not accusatory. Instead, seeing the furor directed at Chen by Stolen players, she offered her support. "I know how nasty backlash can be on the internet," Quinn says. "I just reached out — I was like, ‘hey, I hope you guys are all right. I know you got a lot of backlash. If stuff gets scary or anything, I do run an anti-harassment organization. Let me know if there’s anything I can do to help.’"
>What followed led to today’s release of Famous, an iOS app that picks up where Stolen left off. (An Android version is now in beta.) Like its predecessor, the game represents an effort to let people show off their fandom by collecting their favorite friends, celebrities, and brands on Twitter. But the game differs in several crucial respects, which has earned it the support of Quinn, who is now a paid consultant to the development team.
>Famous is different from Stolen in two important ways. One, the game is entirely opt-in: unless a person joins Famous, you’ll never see them in the game. Second, the app has dropped its off-putting language related to "stealing" and "owning" people. Instead, you "become their biggest fan." What used to feel uncomfortably like a slave auction is now depicted as a show of support.
>The result is a game that captures much of what made Stolen appealing without creating the same avenues for abuse. "This vision and this design are supposed to be about being a fan," says Chen, who remains unreservedly apologetic for the problems surrounding Stolen. The germ of Famous, he says, was: "What if we made it about being a fan? A sense of competition over who’s the biggest fan. … The game is explicitly positive. It’s not like, ‘ha ha, you’re mine now.’"
>Another new feature is called "Top Fans." It appears underneath your profile, and shows everyone who has competed to be your No. 1 fan. "It makes the gameplay feels a lot less ephemeral, which was probably the biggest problem with our old mechanic," Chen says. And it’s true — Stolen often felt pointless because someone could steal a person back instantly, without ever leaving a trace of your momentary possession.
>Those changes aside, Famous looks and feels a lot like Stolen — which in turn was based on Friends For Sale, a once-popular Facebook game Chen released in 2007 that eventually sold to Zynga. With Famous you still log in through Twitter, and players are still represented by trading cards. Instead of showing a price tag, the card now shows a numerical "fame" value. To become someone’s biggest fan, you’ll have to pay up. You can buy currency using real money. Or you can use the currency you earn from your own, um … fan transactions? (The language around Stolen, while fatally creepy, was also much easier to grasp.)

Allying with BernieBros
As many of you are aware, Bernie Bros are another group of activists supporting reform much like GamerGate has been. They want ethical standards to be raised while being libeled as misogynists and harassers for there troubles. I know many GGers are pro-Trump, but there is common ground to be had here.
Some ways we can reach out to them to show we are allied:
Bring back #NotYourShield
Remember this hashtag celebrating ~le gasp!~ actual diversity? I remember how certain authoritarians in our own camp snuffed that out to. Fuck 'em, we all know who they are at this point. Diversity, contrary to popular belief, is a good thing. After all, the reason we mock SJWs isn't because they're inclusive but because they always lie; most of them are straight, white, males.
Show #GamerGate is a (Mostly) Liberal Movement
Hey! Brad Gaslow did a survey showing most of GamerGate is left-wing to the shock of no one but the far-right loonies in our midst! Let's use this to our advantage. Liberalism is the political philosophy of rights for the people by the people. Under Bernie Sanders, we'll get consumer focused ethical standards for all businesses—including journalism and games journalism!
Dunk Hillary
This is something you agree on regardless of political stripe. Hillary is full SJW, full radfem, and HATES videogames. Nobody but her little clique want her in. We can point out how the SJWs want her in office while getting Trump and Bernie fans alike to our cause.
Expose Media Lies and Narratives
Dozens of articles by the far-left press have came out slandering Bernie Sanders supporters. "Bernie Bros are over!" seems to be be the shared message. We can point out how wrong this is and encourage them to dig getting new blood into our ranks.
Laugh at the Far-Right Crazies
By 'Far-Right' I do of course mean actual headpants retarded people like Ralph, Variloh, and QuQu. Someone like Oppressed Fart is more of a consciousness objector who supports right-leaning but liberally tolerant publications like Breitbart. We successfully kicked them out of GamerGate save for a few leech posts here and there to bandwagon off of our successes. Why not point out they're in essence right-wing SJWs?
Encourage Civil Debates
Make propaganda pieces showing the two REAL candidates for the election. Trump VS Sanders - who's your side? This will show a friendly rivalry between two camps that normally hate each other, but due to sharing populist slants synergize for friendly and lively competition. Discuss issues, not people, for a change.
What is with SJWs and Samus Aran?
1. Moviebob and Dobson defending Other M.
2. Samus' gym outfit being problematic and otherwise going on about how she's getting sexualized (even though her first game lets her run around in a bikini if you enter a certain code).
3. Samus getting called a tranny.
4. Whatever Saint Annita says.
What happened to Lifschitz?
I'm out of the loop and couldn't think of anywhere else to ask this.
His twitter is in lockdown and Van Valkensperg hasn't acknowledged him in ages.
Did he get stabbed by a raghead or what?
Sound familiar, #GamerGate? The "have you no decency?" moment for McCarthyist feminists has arrived
>A viral Australian video shows a conservative lawmaker in the country savagely taking down a progressive female opponent after she accuses him of “mansplaining.”
>
>Mitch Fifield, a member of the center-right Liberal Party, was debating Katy Gallagher, of the center-left Labor Party, during a committee hearing when Gallagher complained that he was engaging in “mansplaining.”
Nintendo hires SJW whore for localization
Do you guys know about this whore? I saw this on /pol/ but nobody is discussing it here so i figured i'd make this post
No wonder Nintendo has become shit. The hire SJWs who's sole purpose are to control games according to their ideology.
If she had this opinion and didn't work for one of the biggest games company where she's involved with bringing games over here, then whatever, but SHE IS. This kind of attitude has no place in any industry, anywhere.
Are you guys doing something about this whore?
Goons in Washington.
It's been brought to my attention that the proto-trolls known as something awfuls 'goons' now have positions in government. These are the very people who have created the gamergate scandal through collusion and cronyism from that website.
I personally think this is the most important revelation to be shared since this whole debacle started and I would like to request that we look into this further, it could reveal a whole lot more.
This has the potential to be huge. Unfortunately, I don't have the personal resources to look into it but I'm hoping people who can dig can begin to.

Turnabout #Gamergate! – Indie-Fensible
this image will trigger 90% of you
Why do gamers shit on emulation so damn much?
>muh piracy
Not proven to hurt any industry. Buying used copies is literally no different since you're still not giving money to the publisher. It may even be an only option to obtain some games. It allows easy access to imports, fan translation and hacks. Buying repro carts IS piracy, any "legit collector" who owns them has no right to yell at others.
>muh real hardware
RF and composite look like shit. Old consoles don't play well with modern TVs either, even s-video looks awful. "Game mode" is a joke. Built-in save states and cheat devices are great. Only hardcore nerds care if sound emulation is 95% accurate, and more often than not these lazy shits don't bother to adjust emulator settings.
>muh collector value
I can respect that IF you buy them for the physical ownership value AND don't go around shitting on people who don't buy them. More often than not these hardcore collectors are total douchebags about the emulation issue.
if you're doing this for the physical value of it, have some taste. Display things neatly, don't throw shit up like it's the back wall of a 90s Funcoland or a discount bin at a thrift store. I see this shit way too much, $50K of games on $20 of cheap shelf boards and brackets, nothing even in the original boxes, and the guy is often a Youtuber with a bad attitude.
You wanna be a shit about it, fuck you right back. I'm not going to collect these carts, I'm not going to daisy chain 20 systems to one TV, and my collection stores neatly on an SD card or DVD. I don't need the respect of some asshat who spent $200 on Action 52 solely to brag about it in a video. That's not showing off, that's being unable to handle money.

What's up with ''male power fantasies''?
I noticed that for SJW outrages over games or other works like Dragon Crown with foxy ladies when somebody points when the men get exaggerated and/or idealized traits along with the women some SJW pulls the Male Power Fantasy card. Along with pulling junk like being big and strong helps with what the men do but having big boobs and/or showing more skin doesn't help what the women do (namely in a video that has some tank top wearing white knight pull that card).
I've also seen junk like a comic (I don't remember who drew it, but I doubt it came from PA itself considering their stance on Dragon's Crown) that some SJW posted on BoingBoing.net where Gabe from Penny Arcade says he doesn't have a problem with how Dragon's Crown's Sorceress looks ('cause she's an attractive woman with super huge breasts) but would have a problem with the Fighter character showing more skin and having huge testicles (because apparently a man having super huge balls is the same as a woman having super huge boobs). Stuff like that and the Hawkeye Initiative that SJWs think they're clever for pulling out.
Has anybody pointed asked if being super hot is a female power fantasy? And so characters like the Sorceress can get away with how they look thanks to that?
GamerGate and Defeatism
New video on GamerGate and defeatist attitudes. No more censorship, no more corruption, no more anti-consumer practices and no more e-celeb drama. It's time we stopped making excuses and got back to work!

"Bernie-Bros" is the new Gamergater, for the anti-male regressive left
It has begun, the anti-Gamergate esque anti-male smear campaign by Hillary surrogates against Bernie Sanders and his supporters.
Pro-Hillary supporters have started slurring ANYONE who supports Bernie and refusing to support Hillary, with the phrase "Bernie-Bros". Basically, if you think Hillary does not deserve to be President simply because she has a vagina, you are misogynistic "bernie-bro" who needs to be disenfranchised.

>No no no don't do that you'll be just as bad as the SJWs!

GamerGate target drops case against harasser that started it all

Text of Article[Links omitted]:
Game developer Zoë Quinn has been through an awful lot in the 18 months since an ex-boyfriend posted details of his relationship with her online. But now she's dropping harassment charges against the man who essentially started the GamerGate firestorm because it's not worth the emotional trauma to carry the case forward anymore. "Ironically, getting a restraining order against Creep Throat [Quinn's pseudonym for her ex] was the least effective thing I could do in terms of getting him out of my life for good, and for protecting myself," she writes.
Quinn explains that whenever something happened within the case, her ex would go back and stoke the GamerGate sympathizer fire, and in turn, she (along with family and friends) would be subjected to a new round of threats and abuse. "People kept getting hurt for being close to me, for a poorly worded restraining order that did nothing," Quinn says.
She mentions that law enforcement officials, judges and lawyers are incredibly ignorant about how the internet works and at one point someone told her to give up her career and stop going online if she didn't like the abuse. "He barely bothered to look at my huge stack of evidence before declaring he had no idea what the internet was about and didn't want to know." The continual threats are something that's affected her work with Crash Override, the support group she and Alex Lifschitz founded for victims of online abuse, as well.
She says that even if she kept pushing her suit forward, if her ex was imprisoned his legions of followers would see it as martyrdom. Which, based on previous harassment she's endured, Quinn says the would only give them more fuel for their attacks. So rather than continue the fight in vain, Quinn hopes her withdrawal of charges will help her heal and move on.
Op Idea
So twitter just hired anita for some bullshit socjus position inside the company
Given how bloggers all over the place, specially the high-tier business ones, are shitting on the company for doing stupid and going down in flames…….shouldn't we contact them about aaaaaaall the shady shit anita has done through the years?
Her scam seminar job?
Her boss and mentor from said seminars who went to jail for fraud?
Her stint promoting bullshit spiritual cruise?
Her palm reading courses?
Her job as a PUA right before jumping into the "lets make money off socjus retards"?
Also I bet they would all like to know how she failed to deliver on her shitty kickstarter or how she quit vidya right after she got all the money raised by femfreq and intel
Remember: these are higher stakes, you got investors behind twitter that want to know this shit because they have millions hanging on the line, they couldn't give a shit about feminazi BS and feels

New Low for SJWs: SJWs from University of Oregon Try to Ban MLK's Words for Being Problematic
>Student leaders at the University of Oregon debated removing a quote from Martin Luther King Jr. from its student center, arguing that the quote was not inclusive enough for modern understandings of diversity.
>Oregon’s Erb Memorial Union, which is currently under renovation, had the following famous King quote on the wall: “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. I have a dream…”
>But as renovation continues, the Oregon Student Union seriously considered replacing that quote. “The quote is not going to change,” reports student paper Oregon Daily Emerald, “but that decision was not made without some hard thought by the Student Union Board.”
>When the student union considered the question, some students asked, “Does the MLK quote represent us today?” The problem wasn’t so much the message, but the fact that it only focused on racial diversity instead of gender identity.
>“Diversity is so much more than race,” said one sophomore architecture major. “Obviously race still plays a big role. But there are people who identify differently in gender and all sorts of things like that.”
>Ironically, the King quote was to the lobby after students complained about another quote. Until 1985, the wall declared the University of Oregon “leader in the quest for the good life for all men.” That was replaced with the King quote after feminists objected to the implication that Oregon only cared about “men.”

Campus zealots hound student who questioned 'consent workshops'; Bullied and heckled as rapist Anony
Found this on /n/ >>>/n/208543 thank's based /n/igger
Unfortunately, it links to the Daily Fail instead of an actual news site, but this was predicted: a feminist "kristallnacht" inflicted on white cis male scum.
>A student has been driven out of lectures and bars with shouts of ‘rapist’ after he dared to question the effectiveness of ‘consent workshops’. Second-year George Lawlor, 19, fears for his future at Warwick University after being ostracised and bullied for challenging a student union drive to hold rape awareness sessions.
>Writing in a blog, he argued that the overwhelming majority of people ‘don’t have to be taught to not be a rapist’ – and that men inclined to commit the crime would be unlikely to attend such a workshop. He added that he found his invitation to one of the sessions ‘incredibly hurtful’.
>But in the latest example of politically correct intolerance in universities, the student faced a fierce backlash from radical feminists. He was attacked on Twitter and Facebook by student activists branding him a ‘rapist’ and ‘misogynist’.
>The abuse was so bad that he stopped going to lectures. He told the Daily Mail: ‘I was expecting a reaction, but I was not prepared for just how horrible it was. I remember putting it online and told a few people, who were … saying there would be a backlash.’
>‘It’s all part of this no-platforming agenda, where they try and create “safe spaces” … but no-one ever thought to question whether I was in a “safe space”,’ he said. ‘People were calling for me to be expelled. You’re only allowed to talk about certain issues, it seems.’
JeSuisMilo
Twitter decided to unverify Milo -probably thinking it would make him go away. Of course the complete opposite happened and currently #JeSuisMilo has been top trend all over the place and everyone's turned into Milo.
By trying to silence him the bozos at twitter have given Milo even more publicity. You think by now at least one of the SJs would have heard of the Streisand Effect but . . .
SJWs on Campus
Not too GG related but definitely SJW culture related. Article by Michael Shermer bashing pussy-ass SJW students at Yale for essentially demanding two faculty members resign because *muh feelings* were hurt by an email.
These kids are fucking ridiculous. I'm glad they haven't reached my country yet.
SJW bullshit in video games
Can we take a minute to talk about how bullshit this is? take a look at the women and then at the man. Her whole body isn't even the size of his arms, yet they fucking expect us to believe that she could EVER beat him in a fight? This bullshit is what feminist thrive on and it pisses me off to no end
Buzzfeed: Chan culture and the outrage against white people fighting back against SJWs
The SJW fucks at Buzzfeed are at it again: HOW DARE CHAN CULTURE FORM A COUNTERCULTURE AGAINST US SJW OVERLORDS! WORSE, HOW DARE THESE WHITE BOYS STAND UP FOR THEMSELVES! THEY NEED TO KNOW THEY ARE DOG SHIT AND ONLY EXIST TO BE SLAVES FOR WOMEN, TRANNIES, AND PEOPLE OF COLOR!!!!!
At least the comments are people telling the writer he's full of bullshit and how he's making shit up. Though shit like this makes me wonder how long it will be before Buzzfeed kills it's commentary section because their readers are actively calling out the writers lying and being full of shit

Jessica Jones is our first identifiably post-Gamergate thriller.
> But perhaps most interestingly, Jessica Jones is our first identifiably post-Gamergate thriller." - Arther Chu
>Jessica realizes that Kilgrave has compiled an accurate photographic record of all her movements simply because there’s no way for her to walk around New York City and avoid everyone with a smartphone. In other words, Kilgrave’s power is an analog, low-tech, “meatspace” version of a power that some men in the Gamergate crowd seem to dream of having: the power to be anyone, be anywhere, and do anything without social repercussions. It’s a power that, in our world, can be acquired by any determined troll with basic computer skills and an Internet connection.
And the Anti-GG circlejerk on Fark are trying reeeeal hard to prove that YES, the show is about GG.
>Other than the fact that spending five minutes on rationalwiki would disprove your claim of events, and that the whole thing was staged as a cover for /pol to harass certain critics of their world view, and then got coopted once again by the far right because they were angry that minorities and teh womenfolk were being uppity. And it stopped being Internet drama when several felonies were committed in multiple countries.

I’m Writing a Book on Vice Media and Police Came to My Door.
>Vice legal team’s accusations of harassment came in the form of a trespassing warning in which they threatened criminal actions against me should I contact Vice Canada again. However, every other media outlet I’ve visited (CBC, TorStar, Walrus, NBC, NYTimes & Gawker) have welcomed me, thanked me, and told me I’ve done good research. One saying it was too good. Throughout my interactions with Vice Canada, their legal team has gone with the least charitable interpretation of events possible. A friendly coffee is harassment, asking a question at reception is trespassing, doing so again causes them to fear for their safety.
Vice Media Kit— WARNING for Advertisers

Wikipedia Entry for Greg Elliot trial almost deleted by friend of accusers.
We need to be aware of what is happening to Wikipedia. This has never been more evident to me than in the last 24 hours. The "Samus is trans" edit battle from a few months ago was funny. Deleting the entry for "Cultural Marxism" is not funny.
What they are trying to do here is not funny.
The effort was made by someone who knows the accusers.
Although only one tweet was found between the subject and accuser 1, several tweets over a long period have been found between the subject and accuser 2.
It is my belief that the subject anticipated a potential connection being made between accuser 1 and himself and made an effort to delete/hide any tweets between them.
Once their exchanges over social media were brought to the table, the subject withdrew his request to have the article deleted.
Wikipedia is a record keeper of significant events in our time and there are individuals seeking to shape that record to their benefit.

Got a happening!
Story here!
Twitter has tried to silence yet again. This time with a conflict of interest.
So twatter cucks strike again but this time they've struck an old friend of GG. But almost as if it wasn't a coincidence this particular case comes packaged with a conflict of interest, no extra charge. The tweet in question is related to something called heartmob. The makers of Heartmob are working with twitter.
I think we should e-mail twatter's advertisers. But do we know their contact info or who's advertising with them? This would be the thread to discuss it in. Any thoughts on the idea are welcome.
HeartMob raid.
If anyone has a verified account we can blast some SJWs just sayin.
HeartMob is basically the news of the moment, you need to verify your heartmob account as a certified SJW in order to qualify OR get some heartmobber to verify you instead, this can easily be abused if anyone has a tumblr fake account that posts SJW faggotry or some shit.
TL;DR:we abuse the login system and post discouraging messages to whiny teenager SJW who want their backs patted.

CLICK THIS AND FART
To the anons part of Torrential Downpour keep digging up on Treehouse our first strike will be when Fates comes out on Feb 19th exposing Treehouse and NoA's shit is the top priority for that strike.
Next up we have the task of redpilling Japanese Devs on localization teams in the west explain how these fuckheads such as 8-4 ruin their games and tell them to use better teams such as Xseed for example.
This one won't happen overnight but make our own Translation teams fan or legit cause if we want SJW free or a game extremely close to the JP version we'll need /v/irgins in those places to counteract the SJW/goon translators.
Telling people in a rational manner about the shit going down in localization and not losing our pasta.
Now to the following fanbases
Drakengardfags you don't want NieR automata to get raped like Drakengard 3 was right? So help us get this op on the road!
Ex/feg/ or serens forest members since I know you guys left for /v/ due to waking up to this shit I don't know if Fates can be saved but this op can help stop other FE games from being cucked.
Nip learning threads you boys best be ready cause you'll need to be on point to help find errors in English localizations hope those months of moon help.
Get anons of 2ch to help tell then of the threats that SJWs post to jap games and give them a list of games in Japan that got censored due to SJWs.
JPRG lovers of /v/ in gen this OP is meant to help stop the trend of Japanese games getting censored or having the script among other things getting ruined this'll be a massive team effort.
This not a perfect copypasta I know but its the only one we have till we have a clear and good quality copypasta from all the info we'll gather this is a thread for the people of Torrential Downpour to bounce ideas as the /v/ thread is too off topic for such a large OP such as this.
What about chess?
Like console and PC video games, women have a way lower presence. Chess isn't gorey, lacks foxy ladies, or doesn't have whatever feminist excuse.
Has anybody tried using chess as a point against SJWs going about misogyny or whatever keeping women out of games.

What is it game devs that makes them seem so insecure?
I mean, look at Protein World. SJWs made a fuss about PW not having more fatties or something. PW told them to eat shit and got capital.
Looking at game devs, I see a vibe of appeasement. Being obsessed with "Muh PR" even if the complainers wouldn't have brought the game anyway. They seem to honestly pretend that every complaint is a lost sale and they will all combine into a flop of a game.

BroTeam dumping twatter DM convos with Burch about LW

United Nations Recap
Let's share infos on what exactly happened at the UN because my notes are a fucking mess. What we know is that somebody invited the LWs to the UN to promote a shitty report about "Cyber Violence Against Women and Girls." The report was credited to the Working Group on Gender of the UN Broadband Commission for Sustainable Development. The International Telecommunication Union apologized for the report.
The Working Group on Gender is co-chaired by UN Women Executive Director Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka and UNDP Administrator Helen Clark. Guest speakers at the LWs' session were: https://archive.is/fmoiZ
* Irina Bokova, Director-General, UNESCO
* Doreen Bogdan of ITU
* Baroness Beeban Kidron, U.K. filmmaker
* Anita Sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn
* Madeline di Nonno, CEO of the Geena Davis Institute for Gender & Media
* Roberta Cocco of Microsoft Europe
Dutch Thread - BEWARE OF THE THOUGHT POLICE
"There's several dutch cities and towns that are getting new asylum centers to get the refugees/migrants off the street. It seems however as though the proportion of these centers are insane compared to the town/city's population. There's quite a few people from these towns that are protesting physically against these. Most people don't mind the centers, but they don't want them as big as they are. Unfortunately, some of those protest led to violence and police intervention, because of course there's going to be people who want to wreak havoc. Dutch police are now literally reading Facebook/Twitter, and telling people to not post tweets regarding any protests, and remove any that are already posted. Here's an example tweet from the article: "The municipality of #Sliedrecht [small Dutch town] has come with a proposal to take in 250 refugees over the next 2 years. What a bad plan! #ComeIntoProtest". Police quotes: "You are tweeting a lot", "We've got orders to ask you to watch your tone. Your tweets can be interpreted as seditious." Police is defending this as trying to prevent violent protests, but it's obvious that they're going way overboard and seem to have more motives than that."

SU Censorship
Apparently Steven Universe got censored.

[GOAL] We need to go to the mattresses with Twitter.
Twitter's deverification of Milo Yiannopoulos was a shot across the bow. They're probably testing how much they can get away with.
Reporting Twitter to Twitter is not going to work. We will need to go over their heads to their investors and make them pay.
As a first step, if you have a Twitter account, use the $TWTR cashtag (in addition to the @twitter username mention, if you like) in association with news about this incident to inform Twitter investors, who regularly check the cashtag results.
As a secondary step, we should try tracking down contact info for major Twitter investors and reaching out to them.
If we don't do this now, we may lose the Twitter front, and that would be very bad.
Remember Me?
Hi there GamerGate!
I'm not sure if you remember me? I'm the webcomic writer that lost my featured account along with all my ad revenue, because of some other SJW creators disliking my content for not being PR friendly.
It is now one year later. The website that had me kicked out went bankrupt and closed down, the woman that caused it all has apologized to me, Tapastic offered me a great deal with ad revenue, and thanks to GamerGate I got 2nd place in a big webcomic competition, giving me 1,500 Dollars to fund my little indie project Magnolia Online.
I've since then been outspoken as a GamerGate supporter on all of my accounts, since unlike my old website, Tapastic do not care what affiliations I have outside of webcomic creation.
Everything went really well for me back then, all thanks to you guys. Unfortunately my winning spot in the competition was taken from me, due to another webcomic getting more votes than myself. This year, that webcomic is not present on the website, so I would like to take the chance and try to win this year.
I can't claim to be any sort of victim, really, I'm doing just fine for myself, and I am very grateful to you all. If you do not want to vote for me in this competition, I completely understand, feel free to tell me to fuck off, or just ignore my thread.
But if you do want to help me out a little, I'd very much appreciate it, and will make a big shout out to GamerGate on my comic page like last year, as thanks for the help.
Link to my weeaboo webcomic: http://tapastic.com/episode/36518

All you really need to do is register with an email, and then vote for Magnolia Online. Thank you for reading!
Yandere Simulator banned from Twitch
It's probably a /v/ kind of post, but I wanted to pass the info regardless; Twitch being run by puritans, they decided to ban Yandere Simulator from their streaming service. They don't seem very eager to reply to Yandere Dev's questions about the motivation behind their decision (wild guess: "we banned your game because it's 2016").
We live in a wonderful world.

The Dallas Federal Reserve
–AND–
The Houston Federal Reserve
(there'll be two simultaneously)
>You show up at the designated time.
>Stand silently.
>Disperse as the designated time.
You don't speak.
You don't bring signs or banners.
You don't talk to the media.
You do not chit chat with your peers.
Dress normally–do not conceal your face.
Come armed or not, your choice.
Comply with lawful orders or inquires.
Do not commit violence.
There Is No Message.
The idea is simple. Ordinary men (and women, if we can bring them) show up en mass outside the fed. They do nothing but silently stare down the fed for an hour. Then, they disperse as quickly as they appeared.
Next month the same thing happens, except the crowd has grown larger. Next month, even larger, and now it's spread to other fed buildings across the country. I think you can see how this could quickly snowball as other like-minded groups and individuals become emboldened.
Remember that nearly 100% of men fighting in the Revolution and the Civil War were volunteers. Each man willingly looked his wife and children in the eyes and told them he might never come home.
The task you are called for now pales in comparison to their burden, but it is of the same spirit. This movement will work because it will be driven by our resolve as men. It is real because the risk is real.
But make no mistake, fear is the only weapon our enemies can use against us. We will conduct a legal demonstration. The provocateurs in these threads will construe impossible contingencies to keep you behind the dim light of your computer screen.
They won't subvert us because there is nothing to subvert. We are normal citizens, silently conducting a legal demonstration. We don't know each other's names. We have no hierarchy to infiltrate. We have no message to corrupt. Our silence is both our shield and our sword. Our chaotic nature will be our vindicator.
And don't forget, This is only the first wave.
Wrapup pasta follows:
Atlantabros Monday carried out our first prototype silent armed demonstration, and proved the plan was actually doable. Importantly, they have proven that
1) Yes, Anons will actually show up to these.
2) No, the police will not show up to mow everyone down. The single officer that DID show up did nothing other than say "I keep getting calls about you out here but and I keep sayin sorry nothin i can do about it".
3) Yes, /pol/acks are capable of carrying it out without cracking and playing with their phones/chatting or whatever.
4) For that matter, /pol/acks actually know how to dress decently and aren't actually fat NEETs.
5) As anon noted, "people were lined up against the windows on the upper floors gawking at us and the security gaurds were terrified". It really does unnerve them to have us there stonefaced locking eyes with them, do not forget that. This will color the rest of their day, likely the rest of the week. Then, next week when they hear about it happening in a different state and the rumor spreads…
Hopefully, the quiet success of Monday's protest will put a damper on the insane shilling the threads have received up to this point HAHAHAHA

Did Anita deliberately misrepresent Prince of Persia (2008)?
As you might know, Anita recently released another video of her Tropes Vs Women series. entitled "Strategic Butt Coverings". In the video, she argues that male characters' butts are often hidden because of camera angles, clothing or a combination of both.
However, she might have deliberately misrepresented the game Prince of Persia (2008). At 2:32, it looks like she uses the wall in the game to make it seem like the Prince's butt is impossible to see because of the camera angle.
Is there anyone here who can confirm whether or not the camera makes it impossible to see the Prince's butt? If so, could you record that for me, i.e. footage of the camera being positioned right under the Princes butt?

Gawker Sued Again, This Time For Breaking Their Word With A Source
http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2016/01/20/gawker-sued-time-breaking-word-source/
>Gawker is being sued again, which makes for five simultaneous lawsuit defenses. Plaintiffs range from Hulk Hogan to Gawker’s own former interns. Now journalist Ashley Terrill is calling Gawker out for their deceptive and dishonest practices.
Make sure to send a thank you to Sam Biddle, the lawsuit documents point to him as being responsible for the latest mess Gawker is in.
http://www.scribd.com/doc/296075078/Terrill-v-Gawker-Complaint
>The motivation for Biddle’s betrayal, in addition to economic gain, appeared to be Biddle’s ongoing personal relationship with Wolfe and Gulczynski, which he actively concealed from Terrill. In fact, on information and belief, Biddle was regularly communicating with Wolfe and Gulczynski throughout the time that Terrill was confiding in Biddle. Biddle concealed his relationship with Wolfe and Gulczynski from Terrill because Biddle knew that he could not successfully induce Terrill to disclose her confidential research if she knew about the relationship with Wolfe and Gulczynski.

This really fuckin' pissed me off. Here is my take on this as someone who has enjoyed Sierra immensely and also has had his words taken 500 miles outta context by SJW freaks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9BpxeqkrK8
This is why you're loosing.
You see this shit on KIA?
It's a link to this article at the L.A. times.
The article glorifies the fact that "At USC, women now outnumber men in video game design graduate program".
Why the fuck is this a good thing? Why the fuck are you retards agreeing with this bullshit?
SJW's are calling videogames sexist, and your answer to that is to say "No we aren't, look how not sexist we are! In fact, women play video-games as much as men, and now there are more women in videogame design!"
*This is why you fuckers are loosing. You are implicitly giving them legitimacy by agreeing to their narrative. The fuck is wrong with you people?*
Eron Gjoni legal update
https://www.red*dit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/40us3u/yo_legal_update/
The Appellate Court has scheduled an oral argument for March. Meanwhile LW has hired four lawyers from (Giant Legal Conglomerate) Wilmer Hale, who've dropped the violation claims and are now looking to replace them by a charge of Criminal Harassment.
The ride never ends
Reminder that the News Media Is as Fake as Professional Wrestling
Check out this compilation video of bad acting and faked green screen footage from CNN. One of the reasons why the mainstream media went after us so hard is because we pulled back the curtain on their Wizard of Oz con job. If they will straight up LIE to you about faked footage on TV, of course they're going to lie to preserve their own manufactured narratives and crush any dissent.
Note, CNN is still doing this! Almost all of the "live footage" of their anchors in Paris right now are behind green screens. If you pay attention for more than a minute, it's obvious!
Tumblrtale
Reminder that Undershit is part of a shill campagin to let the SJW have more contol in gaming.

Regarding an Attempt to Use Video Games as a Vector for the Delivery of Propaganda
Hello all.
This leading post is old. However, there have been new developments over the past year, and new analysis.
The below is a summary of OMFGNinja's "Gamergate: Smoking Gun". It's the embedded video. That said, it's an hour long, and if you don't want to watch that, it's reasonable.
1) Zoe Quinn and Heather Kelley are connected.
2) Heather Kelley did a talk on controlling people via video games, and how to use this power correctly. This is the Ludic Salon talk.
Key points of this talk:
2.1) How the concept of "Achievements" makes people do things they wouldn't.
2.2) How loss of control is politically powerful.
2.3) Kelley was working on a manifesto (If I'm right, it's called "Controlled Invasion"ceven though that's the title of a small video she shows) on how to harness this power, and does express a fear that this will be used for evil; she wants to make sure these mechanisms aren't entirely hidden.
2.4) The manifesto happily suggests that the distinction between the "real world" and "game world" would be eliminatedcand that games could be used as "agents of change."
2.5) It also suggests that this sort of change would necessarily have to happen over multiple generations, and that governments could use this as a tool to promote social change.
2.6) They suggest that both the right and left are very interested in using this.
2.7) They suggest that a set of ethics should be put forth to only use this power for "positive results." Someone suggests that this term would have to be defined. They put forth their own definitions.
2.8) They suggest that game developers admitting that they *do* have the power to create "positive results" would imply the power to create "negative results," which is frowned upon. (They did not say "Because Jack Thompson," but they obviously wanted to.)
2.9) Most disturbing: one person suggest that without a market incentive to make fun games, they wouldn't have to make fun gamescand this might be good.
2.10) A refrain of theirs is "Break the magic circle." That is, they want to break the barrier between the "real world" and the "game world."
3) Heather Kelley is testing these techniques out in a benign fashion: teaching african kids to not beat the shit of their wives.
4) M00t is also connected to Heather Kelley.
Proof of above segments:
1) Zoe Quinn and Phil Fish were seen at a wedding together (https://archive.today/zaAcy). Heather Kelley worked under Phil Fish at Polytron (https://archive.today/IRgm9). So, ZQ and HK are connected.
2) All is direct from the videos. Those desiring proof of these points should go watch it.
3) Is around the 42 minute mark of OMFGNinja's video.
4) M00t is connected with Jamin (https://archive.today/DvCda), and Jamin is connected to Heather Kelley (https://archive.today/jG2ZZ).
Analysis:
I was not immediately convinced that Kelley is a "bad guy." She addresses the same concern that /pol/ had the first time this video became relevant: that people will unknowingly be brainwashed by video games. However, she goes on to speak about this positively, rather than negatively.
We can't stop this technology from being developed. It's happening. The only thing we can do is make ourselves immune to it, and to point it out when it happens. At the very least, we have to thank Kelley for being relatively open about using it. A government would not have been so open. At the very least, we can do something about it, because these people are very open about using it in the ways that they are.
Here is the totality of the information I am aware is valuable.

In case you missed it Billy Corgan from the smashing pumpkins just went medieval on SJWs and social media

Note: I'm not the same /pol/lock as other thread's OP Also, if anyone asks: "what's the GG angle?", "muh vidjya?" "but… /pol/" or similar… Well, the GG angle here is: that you can go fuck yourself if you can't even "breaking the SJW MSM narrative", because redpilling normies about the MSM lying about gamers, Muslum immagrants, and supposed "rape culture" in the West, is a essential part of GG's overall final victory-condition
Why did gamergate fail?
Gamergate failed. Utterly. I know that when you morons read that your first instinct is to screech "shill! shill!" but try to fucking think this time. There's an old maxim that goes "history is written by the victors." I want you to ask yourself "Who wrote the history of Gamergate?" I'll give you a hint: it wasn't you. What GG was is not as important as what it will be remembered as. What it will be remembered as is a shining example of why diversity and SJW ideology are needed in the gaming industry. While you have been busy "battling" the "shills" of your various boogeymen (gawker, goons, ayy team, cancer crew, revolt, etc., etc.) your actual enemies have been writing the history of GG in the way they see fit. The actual legacy of GG will alternate between a cautionary tale and a punchline. You lost the second you lost control of the narrative, because your "accomplishments" mean nothing when the general consensus on you is that you are nothing more than a misogynist hate group.
Now go ahead, idiots. Spout your fucking buzzwords at me. The few of you that aren't completely deluded will know I'm right.
NEW YEAR'S TWITTER SHENANIGANS
ALART ALART, CHELSEA HAS GONE DARKMODE ON TWITTER
LW1 has both started a new twitter handle, @UnburntWitch, and both this and her existing @TheQuinnspiracy have gone private for followers only. First Alex in the fall, now this.
even though they're private, make sure to use the handles directly in public tweets to blow up her mentions
HAPPENING ALART: Are any of you shitlords aware of #rapefugee situation in Europe?
Shit's being covered up by the left-leaning MSM, but did you know, there were 300+ women assalted in just one city in Germany, it happened in multiple cities and not every assault/rape was reported, so the number is climbing; meanwhile, THE DAMAGE-CONTROL IS REAL, the MSM, feminists, and government officials are being the victim-blaming, rape-apologist, hypocritical shitlords that they accuse GG of being!
It happened New Years Eve, but there have been multiple, previous, incidents that have been covered up by government official and the police.
There were organized rape gangs; let me say that again: THERE WERE ORGANIZED. RAPE. GANGS.
Most, but not all, of the attackers were immigrants or refugees.
ALL of the attackers were Muslim
One of the attackers who said he was from Syria boldly stated: "German chancellor Merkel invited us here. The police won't do anything." He was right.
A large number of the rapists were caught, effectively, red-handed by police …and were LET GO by police due to "lack of evidence"
There were protests by the victims and the victims families in the following days. The MSM did not cover one of them.
143 police were sent to deal with the Muslim rape-gangs
1500 police were sent to deal with the victim's protest; where the police used water hoses, teargas, and pepper spray to disburse the protesters.
THE MSM BLAMED WHITE PEOPLE AND THE VICTIMS THEMSELVES FOR THE RAPES AND CALLED ANYONE WHO POINTED OUT THAT ALL THE RAPISTS WERE MUSLIM AS RACIST BECAUSE …FEMINISM (vid related)
Feminist support rape if you're the "right" sort of rapist.
SMH_TBH_ONII-FAM.JPG
Of course you delete a /pol/ thread. You know, I came here to try and extend an olive branch and you do this? Shameful.
At least you took that message saying you were allies with /pol/ down. we all know that's a lie.
DON'T TRUST LAW ENFORCEMENT!
Thoughts on this?
ZQ is watching "Making a Murderer" and citing it as a reason why we should never, ever trust the police for any reason.

Twitter Ban Archive and Info Dumping Thread
The purpose of this thread is for info dumping. Twitter has recently banned user's account based off ideological differences as opposed to their harassment guidelines. I am seeking twitter users who's accounts have been banned to dump information of their ban on this thread.
The info that is required is:
1) A screen cap or better yet an Archive of a Twitter ban notification.
2) The time (preferably in GMT) that the ban was initiated.
I shall use this information to try to determine if twitter suffers from a rogue mod(s) or if the unnecessary banning of accounts (yes I will NOT accept accounts that have clearly violated twitter's rules) is company-wide.
Please notify those on twitter, the existence of this thread (I am not a twitter user).
Congratulations, Acid Man, you did it
>gghq - 65 UIDs
>ggrevolt - 73 UIDs
You took a 2000 UID board, and turned it into 2 sub 100 UID boards.
GOOD JOB ACID MAN
All it took was your lies, spreading FUD, and making accusation of swatting attempts to kill it all.
Let me tell you a story...
(Also posted this on /r/KotakuInAction subreddit)
> Once upon the time, there used to be a scientist called Gamus Developus. He did a bit of this and a bit of that, but his main interest was astronomy. He would spend a lot of time looking through his telescope and making charts of the star sky.
> One day, Gamus noticed something. He noticed a certain pattern involving planetary and Sun movement. He studied that pattern, then did a lot of calculations and after a lot of hard work, came to a shocking conclusion - it's not that the Sun and other planets are revolving around Earth, but actually, all the planets, including Earth, are revolving around Sun.
> He had to publish these findings because of their high importance so of course he did.
> Socialis Justis Variores was a High Inquisitoress of the Holy Church. Because of that, it was her job to make sure no heresies appear and if they do, to stamp them out by any means necessary. The town where Gamus lived was within her jurisdiction.
> When Gamus published his findings, Socialis took a look at them and didn't like them, for they were heresy because they contradicted the Holy Teachings that said the Sun and other planets revolved around the Sun. Doing what was her duty, she immediately ordered Gamus' arrest under the charge of heresy.
> When the two of them faced each other for the first time, in court, Socialis gave Gamus a choice - either peacefully abandon your findings, your heresy, and walk away free and with untarnished reputation or have them repressed by us by force and be branded a heretic or something even worse.
> Gamus was a scientist. If he was branded a heretic, it would ruin his entire life, not to mention his career, and he most certainly didn't like the sound of that "something even worse," so he recanted his "heresy" and burned his notebooks himself. It pained him deeply and still left a minor stain on his record, so to say, but at least he could still continue with both his life and his job.
> Cue 30 years later. Gamus Developus' son, Gamus Developus II (let's call him Junior) was a scientist himself. However, where his father's primary interest was astronomy, Junior's passion was biology.
> One day, Junior was studying an animal life on some remote island group when he himself noticed some sort of pattern in animal "kinds." He did some intense research and came to a shocking revelation himself - modern animals actually evolved from earlier animals.
> He had to publish these findings because of their high importance… so of course he didn't. Why?
> The Holy Teachings say the Goddess created each and every animal "kind" "by hand", not that the animals evolved. Junior was not stupid. He very well knew this might get him in trouble with the Holy Church, just like his father's findings got him in trouble. He didn't want any troubles himself so he knew there was only one thing to do in his position.
> He preemptively burned the notebooks where he noted his progress in this research.
> Gamus Gatorus, not related with any of Gamus Developus', of course, was a historian and a chronicler. It was his job to, obviously, study history that already happened and record what's happening right now.
> Somehow, Gatorus found out about what Junior did. He came out and publicly accused the Holy Church of censoring the scientists in order to make their findings fit the Holy Teachings. Of course, Socialis quickly arrived for a… talk.
> Socialis: "We didn't do nothing. We're not here to take away your science. It was Developus' own decision to withdraw his findings, for some reason."
> Gatorus: "He had to rely on self-censorship, because, if he didn't, you'd threaten to excommunicate him and label him a heretic, which would ruin his life. You [the Holy Church] forced him, through fear, to rely on self-censorship."
> Socialis: "No, Gatorus, self-censorship is not real. Like I already said, it was his own decision."
> She then proceeded to label Gatorus a devil worshiper and literally worse than Ladof Do'Hisller, the Empreror of the Third Drow Empire.
Moral of the story: you don't need to actively work on "taking away your X" - you only need to create an atmosphere of fear where the creators of X will do it for you via self-censorship, which also gives you a convenient excuse to say "we didn't do nothing."
What Gamergate did in 2015- Making an infograph.
Pic related.
We need an infograph for what we did this/last year (2015).
It keeps SJWs and shills at bay both here and on Twitter.
It will also boost morale for those who use to be active participants, but are now just lurkers (possibly making them re-join and contribute), as well as making current members reassured they are contributing.
Though bare in mind the first to leave would have been the ones who contributed least, and would be our weakest links. We do however want to recall diggers.
So far I've got:
- More FTC guidelines on native ads.
- Honey Badger & Eron legal cases (need more info).
- Spread awareness of Jap games censoring or jap devs refusing to bring over their games (and boosting PlayAsia).
- Funded Red Pill Documentary.
- More people are talking about how shitty SJWs are (harder to prove).
So I was called a Misogynist while claiming someone raped someone else before a murder.
I can't even claim rape without being a mansplaining shit lord guys…

Why is Anita Sarkeesian silent about the rape, murder of women?
HUACfag here. I have a link I need to show you.
In this link is a shocking video, reportedly smuggled from an ISIS stronghold, that shows jihadists dragging away young girls from their parents.
I ask all of you on /pol/, /ggrevolt/, and /gamergatehq/ a pertinent question.
If Anita Sarkeesian represents women’s rights, why is she silent while girls are being raped in the Middle East by Muslims?”
Yazidi women, Christian women, ripped out of their mother’s arms.
Go and look at the videotape. I have it up from the Daily Mail which was posted originally on MichaelSavage.com.
It is one of the most heartrending tapes I have ever seen in my life.
Yazidi girls screaming as they are being torn away from their mothers and fathers in a school yard by these untermenschen, these subhumans.
These subhumans who make Hitler’s minions look like Boy Scouts, and we’re doing nothing about it.
Virtually nothing about it.
Zoe Quiin and Chanty Binx are saying nothing about these rapes.
Sarkeesian, the liar, who represents women like my dog represents women.
How could she say she represents women when she is saying nothing about ongoing rape and kidnapping, Lindsey Ellis?
Lindsey, hey big mouth, hey Nostalgia Chick, who loves all things liberal.
That's all.
Gamergate, attack, tear down or disband and rebuild
new year, new autismo, WOOOOOO
ok enough of the shitposting ironic nonsense, let's get down to brass tacks.
Seen quite a few burned out people whining about Gamergate, about how Arbys is still pushing it to carry on, how emails don't work anymore on the corrupt press, how this stalemate is actually destructive, how it's actually game over, how the hashtag is neutered…
We got a lot of things done in the beginning is because we were angry, we had the drive to hit at the games journos idiocy when they wrote their hitpieces, and we went for the throat as a collective. Right now we are individuals swimming in our own direction. Hence the directionless of GG.
Thing is, the antis want to keep GG going as a terror symbol, because they have conditioned themselves to see Gamergate as the very hate symbol of everything they hate, pride in attractiveness, individualism, freedom to create without shame, not kissing feminism golden vagina.
Anyway for GG itself,I really see the moderates hemming and hawing over the sides that want to do stuff, and one side that wants to do things their way while passive aggressive shaming the other.
The cultural libertarian side strikes at the SJW core, the idiots on Twitter and the leftist media. They aim to change the political landscape by highlighting the SJWs and the wankery they pull. By now, almost everybody knows how stupid SJWs can really be, though whether they can tear down the appeal of the leftist socjust media is anybody's guess. See: Milo, Ralph, IA, Twitter trolls
The rebuild side is about ensuring ethics, building connections to developers to speak out, charity drives, gaming streams and generally building a positive vibe.
See: Kern, TB, Dawe, Twitter rebuild people.
As always, it's comes down to what you want GG to be, and make the effort in that direction. A lot of people get upset or confused about the goals because they can't think for themselves. GG works because many people from different countries and ideologies work towards the goal of exposing corruption and ensuring social justice ideology doesn't seep into gaming.
Veterans Charity Accused of Joining Games Press In Abandoning Gamers
So Milo has released an article claiming that Operation Supply Drop, a charity centered around easing veterans back into the civilian world via video games, is trying to now distance itself from gamers and reform itself into a more general charity fund to rival that of the likes of the Wounded Warrior Project. The original founder (Stephen Machuga) has apparently been driven out by the new CEO (Glenn Banton) due to this attempted shift of focus and Stephen has pledged to start a new foundation Stack-Up.org with the original goals of OSD in mind.
Now, like the article says, Banton is free to try and change the charity's focus, but he should not do so by deceiving gamers and diverting their funds from a gaming focus to other expenses. I think we should look more into this Banton character's history and if shady, warn people donating to OSD about their shift in priorities. We should also look into Stack-up.org and see if it's legit; if it is, we can redirect gamer's support.
Tim Schafer's Fig Fundraiser
When I saw that Tim Schafer had ANOTHER fundraiser, I was very skeptical of things as most people should be. He got nearly $2,000,000 already, and that's quite surprising to see. But I am not trusting of Schafer, so I went over the ENTIRE THING to see where the money actually is. The following is what has been collected from his Fig fundraiser.
https://www.fig.co/campaigns/psychonauts-2
Note that if someone can get an proper archive since I seem unable to this would be really appreciated to always have something to show what went on, just in case Schafer attempts to backpedal things. Seems someone might need to log in and spend some to archive possibly, so if someone can bite the bullet on this one, it would be much appreciated.
Also note that most people already know Schafer had three days added to this fundraiser, which is already really bad to see without being addressed at all. And another thing is that the funders will only be partially responsible for funding, outside sources are funding this game anyways. The Fig Fundraisers are only adding the icing and sprinkles to the Schafer cake.

Since when is it possible to physically molest dolls?
>The production of a doll like this where players are encouraged to physically molest an already hyper-sexualized female game character’s breasts is gross, but should not be at all surprising, at least not to anyone who’s been paying attention to the Metal Gear Solid series,
>This doll is completely consistent with Kojima’s ongoing pattern of sexually objectifying the majority of his female characters.
>For just one of many examples, in Metal Gear Solid 4, during Snake’s therapy sessions, the developers built in a mechanic where the player is encouraged to shake the Sixaxis Playstation controller to jiggle the breasts of the protagonist’s PTSD counselor.

No mention of the fact that the love interest is a girl who's supposed to be 17 but looks 11. I'm not even against this since it's just drawings, but this is goddamn hilarious. What is it with these moralistic media watchdogs and underage sexualization?
IDEA FROM /v/
So Twitter has been getting pretty damned banhappy lately, and it has come out that they're actively censoring the #right2game hashtag by blocking it from the autocomplete function.
SO LET'S DO THIS:
Find tweets that have been censored or otherwise blocked by Twitter from pro-GG and neutrals, especially the #right2game tag, and put them side-by-side with tweets from ISIS and similar fuckers, which have not been interfered with.
PUT TWITTER'S LOGO AND CONTACT INFO ON THE PICS AND SPREAD THEM LIKE WILDFIRE.
Show people what the shifty fuckers are up to and let the complaints flow in like water.

Sesame Credit/Tencent/Ali baba cucking China from now until 2020
I HAVE SEEN THE FUTURE, AND IT IS A SHITTY MOBILE GAME
China has gamified being an obedient citizen with the creation of Sesame Credit. The "game" links to your social network and gives you a score for doing things that the government approves of, but it also reduces that score for doing things the government disapproves of. Even your friends' scores affect your own, and being friends with people who have a low score will drag your score down as well. This insidious system applies social pressure on people to ostracize their friends with lower scores, either forcing those friends to change their ways or effectively quarantining their rebellious ideas. While many sci-fi visions of a dystopian future have centered around a bleak government that controls through fear, Sesame Credit shows us that a government can use gamification and positive reinforcement to be just as controlling. And it's real. While currently the system is opt-in, the government plans to make it mandatory in 2020. Once mandatory, it may give rewards for good scores or penalties for bad ones. And in the meantime, making it opt-in has already set the tone for the game: people participate willingly, so they find it fun, and they set a very high standard for what the "average" score should be. Already people have begun sharing their scores on social media.
Currently the score provides benefits that things like Klout was supposed to; easier, cheaper car rentals, fast-tracking government documents and applications, discounts at certain places, and apparently a premium job listing site. Having a negative score can block from some of these previously public services, or limit your access in such a way that even though you can still rent a car, the process is so difficult and hindered that you are essentially banned in real-world application.
This shit is run by Tencent, the asian company that bought League of Legends lock-stock-and-barrel a few years back, and have since being doing all sorts of experiments to "clean up toxic behavior" in the playerbase. We've seen major overhauls to their reporting system on both ends; players getting Tribunal opt-in access to help sort abuse reports for GMs, seeing 'anonymous' chat logs and game histories & statistics, gifting exclusive skins to players with good histories over the course of competitive seasons, and now the new crafting system coming that will LOCK OUT negative players that are reported for harrassment. Tencent also apparently have large shares and holdings in Epic Games and Activision Blizzard.

anyway, gg is dead as shit, mates. no one wants to admit it, but it is. twitter was our main stomping grounds for the past year plus, but twitter has found a way to gimp the hashtag and it's looking like #endgamergate2016 may be a success.
it doesn't take but a few mouse scrolls through the gg hashtag before i am looking at tweets from over a week ago. when gg first started, it took several scrolls to get past the first day of tweets. the former is no doubt due to something new twitter has implemented behind the scenes to limit our exposure to one another's tweets to the hashtag. now twitter has gimped the search so that gamergate and other hashtags don't autocomplete. in short, our network has been weakened. our network was our strongest link. without it, we are nothing.
sure, we have 8chan and reddit and l4g, but not one of those mediums will ever serve as a official gathering point for us. add to it all that the SJWs are at the helm of pretty much all major media outlets and are taking advantage of their power to stifle our voice and it's just a victory we'll never win.
the only thing we can rely on is our wallets, but with gg being so dispersed these days, we'll never be able to get enough people on the same page to actually make a difference.
anyway, sorry to piss on everyone's parade, but my bladder was full of pissy tidings and i had to release.
happy new year, everyone.
Quinn will come, won't she?
Surely ZoeZoe and her newfound Hollywood popularity will come in and repay her friends for all they've done for her in light of this new blacklist and punching bag revelations that are plaguing choice games media outlets…

SJW blackwash Harry Potter wikis
And it begiiiiiiins.
SJW's are already hard at work since the massive fan outrage over racebending Hermione to remove any instance of her being described as white (or her parents being white) from the Wiki and Wikipedia articles.
The talk sections are already filled with talk that her race should be changed to black and her film appearance should be specified as "only relating to the films".

New OP: Shoot For The Moon*. Where we get Japan to listen to us.
Thread's also on /v/ but because there will be overlap, figured it should be on here too.
Earlier Kern was saying that League For Gamers needs a lot more numbers so that it can be used as a representation of gamers who don't want any censored or watered down shit. Bigger the numbers, easier that gets. Simple idea but I think we can make this work in a slightly different direction: Instead of focusing on quantity, we focus on quality. There's two ways that numbers can impress a business:
A) Large numbers attached to a group, petition, etc to indicate interest. Stuff like Operation Rainfall, for example.
B) The number of actual potential buyers. Dollars, in other words. If you can prove that you have have 1000 people where 70% are your customer, they are going to be much more interested over a group of 3000 that may or may not be. It's using the other half of the equation: the 20% of people that do 80% of the business.
The second is the one to do. Considering our numbers, who we have, and who we can get to participate, a significant number of that 20% of people that make 80% of a company's profits may very well be found within the connections we've got. This gives us a chance to prove it.
That's the OP in a nutshell: Prove our value as individuals to these companies and have LFG's value as a special interest group go up. This needs fewer bodies, is something that can be fun, and can lead to organic growth for LFG. This goes beyond just GG so it can - and should - go beyond that if the idea gets traction.
What people would need to do for the OP:
1) Take pictures of your Japanese games. By this I just mean games developed in Japan. If you've bought digital, get screenshots of that.
2) Spread those pics online, probably on twitter with some kind of hashtag that hopefully can summarize this neatly.
3) Link to those tweets/pictures on LFG. Tentatively made this group for now:
https://leagueforgamers.com/group/shoot_for_the_moon
Maybe something better will come up, we'll see.
Now here's the deal:
Even if the community is small and only a couple thousand, if it can prove that it's a couple thousand of actual buyers and people genuinely considering to be buyers then it's not something that can be ignored for a lot of the smaller companies.
A group of 3000 that fit this description is potentially 10-20% of real business.
Instead of bullshitting here's actual numbers for two series: Miku and Senran Kagura. Numbers are from NPD and the weekly Japanese sales. Neither accounts for digital sales but in the times we can compare it, it adds between a quarter to a third more, not a terribly large amount. And yes, the NPD specifics are going to ultimately come back to GAF threads on it but NPD leakers are one of the few things they've consistently done well.
In 2013, NPD had the retail release of Project Diva F (PS3) at 16k. Sega was happy with this and released the game on the Vita, physical copies of its sequel on both, and DX on the 3DS. They continued selling physical copies and didn't go digital only in the process. On September 2015, Project Diva Mirai DX sold 24k in physical copies. This is still not a lot but if they were fine with 16,000 then you've got some super low margins that a group representing a couple thousand people's interests can directly impact.
Senran Kagura officially hit a million copies sold in the series worldwide late August 2015. The global release to the three games at the time likely played a big role. How big though? Well…
Deep Crimson's launch week: 50k copies.
In the US, it was 10,000.
Now yes, it released in a higher price bracket and that played role in both instances, but that's the gap that got made. If you can find 2000 buyers of it in the US, that'd still be a good 15-20% even after digital unless it bucked tends. You think that won't turn heads when things like say… Valkyrie Drive and Omega Labyrinth are up for assessment? I'm sure that the EU is responsible for its share of copies too based on the fact that Marvelous gives them the really nice LEs, though I don't know those. Will say that if you assume the EU and US each give about the same amount, you can account for the million pretty well. Regardless, this is another example where a few thousand can have a real, direct impact in what gets brought over and potentially what gets touched up.
If we can prove that we are a significant chunk of that 20% that accounts for the overwhelming majority of the money then even with few numbers, any direct appeal to Japanese devs and publishers is a strong one. Middleman "localizers" and bullshit positions that change things because of "different cultural norms" would be put at odds against those saying they want the games as is and to bring things over without fear. Money talks, bullshit walks, and if we can prove we're the former, then they're the latter.
Hillary vs Trump: Gamergate on Venom Steroids?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKZYUF-QkUM
TLDR: basically as war has now been officially declared between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, Joe Scarborough had a major moment on the 12-23-15 edition of his morning show, where he and his cohost basically break down with regards to the full-scale atomic shitstorm that will break out if and when Hillary finally breaks out the feminism card as part of her Presidential bid, especially if she uses it against Trump.
Basically, take the shitstorm involving Gamergate and magnify it by a thousand.
It's been well rumored in recent weeks that Trump is prepping a huge MAD file of shit Hillary's done over the years, some of which is stuff Hillary has done her best to suppress over the years, like how she helped a pedophile get acquitted by victim shaming his young victim, then LAUGHING about how she helped a sex offender skate with zero remorse for what he did with his victim.
Then there is the shit that Hillary has done, such as her constantly taking the side of her husband every time he cheated on and then ran a Zoe Quinn worthy gas lighting campaign to discredit his conquests and her general tolerance of Bill's adultery and predatory ways.
Basically, fear is going on that the we could see a HUGE Happening level shit storm if and when the shit REALLY starts flying that will make Gamergate look like a schoolyard tussle in terms of public civil war dividing everything and everyone on whether or not women can be bastards and do horrible things, then hide behind feminism/"women hating men are out to get me!" crap.

A Game Called Walden and its Bullshit Amount of Coverage
This is gonna be a long post, so strap yourself in.
Out of sheer curiosity, I decided to look through DiGRA's 2014 schedule, which has been made publicly available.
I came across the name "Tracy Fullerton" in that schedule and started digging into her. She's currently the head of the USC Game Innovation Lab, and a project that team is working on is called Walden, A Game.
Then, I notice something else. The NEH and NEA, both federal agencies, gave grants to the game. Okay, nothing out of the ordinary, right? These kinds of bullshit games get grants all the time.
But what they don't fucking get is almost 30 articles of coverage from publications like TIME, The Guardian, Kotaku, Polygon, Gamasutra, and Rawstory, just to name a few. Publications and authors listed here. This list is still incomplete, it was just tiring going through and archiving all of these articles
So, I began to wonder. Someone in that team must be mad friends with at least one journalist, right? I began looking at the people in the USC Game Innovation Lab here
http://www.gameinnovationlab.com/people/
Turns out, Tracy Fullerton and Bonnie Ruberg are both friends with Leigh Alexander. I noticed this going through both of their personal facebook and twitter accounts. Bonnie Ruberg especially, since she and Leigh have been colleagues since at least 07 or 08. Bonnie even wrote for Gamasutra a few times
And then a another interesting fact hit me.One member of the team, Sean Bouchard, organizes events for IndieCade. Sean Bouchard, as well as 4 other members of the USC Game Innovation Lab were all speakers at IndieCade 2015, and their game, Walden, was an award nominee.
While it isn't unusual for a "game" like this to get grants from the government, the amount of coverage it's gotten, especially compared to other projects the team has done, is not.
Lend me your digging powers. Look at the backgrounds of each of the USC Game Innovation people, search for any connections to IndieCade, GDC, or journalists/publications.

Trump In Favor of Censoring the Internet
I guess the horseshoe theory was correct. Don't get me wrong, I hate Hilary Clinton and the majority of the candidates aren't impressive, but it worries me when someone be it right or left are too attached to their political ideals that they'll sacrifice freedom for it. I'm not worried about Trump, I highly doubt alone he'll be able to export immigrants or Muslims and it's funny watching people get panic attacks thinking he's literally competent enough to be Hitler especially seeing how he's asking Bill Gates to do the censoring.
The thing is I'm worried that companies like Comcast will take advantage of him to make the damage longterm even when he gets out of office.
I hope /pol/ doesn't come here.
This Week In GamerGate: December 15, 2015
My first actual video and hopefully the start of a weekly recap series. How did I do and what can I do better?
hypocrisy
The man responsible for this comic is "best friends" with a known GG supporter/white supremacist. Why are they friends if Walky hates GG so much?
>the white supremacist part is definite- the individual in question has posted multiple tweets about fantasies of killing blacks and Muslims, so it can't really be denied
Bayonetta is in Smash
Bayonetta is going to be a DLC in Super Smash Bros. While this is pretty awesome news, get ready to hear how this is also a "major victory for feminism."
Much like Undertale, it seems that the SJW'sw ant to claim Bayonetta as their own and this is a major win against us sexist gamers.
Just wanted to give everyone a little heads up
aGGro website Gamergatecritique about to expire. Opportunity?
A blog that gives chronology and "criticism" from an SJW perspective of the Gamergate hashtag is expiring soon. Ironic that the latest update (which predicts that Gamergate is "spiraling into silence") is dated November of 2014.
https://gamergatecritique.wordpress.com/2014/10/22/what-is-gamergate/#more-15 (Goes to actual website).
When first loading the page, I am given a popup that tells me that this domain name has expired and needs to be renewed. Could be an opportunity of two things. Archiving and buying it out (partially for keks). Any other ideas?
Wayback machines archive link here: http://web.archive.org/web/20150801131905/http://gamergatecritique.com/ Not sure if it will be reliable long term.
https://www.godaddy.com/domains/searchresults.aspx?checkAvail=1&domainToCheck=https%3A%2F%2Fgamergatecritique.wordpress.com <<< Is this the method to buying the website?
Nothing at all.
Why is GG just a bunch of nobodies who will never achieve anything ?
In b4 you comment her looks because its the only thing you can manage to do. You still got served.
Ryulong perma-banned?
I just heard that the guy got kicked permanately of Rational Wiki, and that people (gamergaters) are asked to point out what is wrong in articles…..but no one has enough faith left.
Can anyone confirm?
Is the dragon dildo gone?
Have we finally slain the dragon?
Christmas party with antis
Do you believe Gamergate is a war to be won or, if at all possible, would you rather prefer to mitigate some of the conflict through respectful dialogue with the other side? I've been thinking that it might be nice to try to foster a civil and compassionate dialogue with the other side somehow in the Christmas spirit of things. I don't know if they'd be down for it or just call it sea lioning, but I think it would be nice if we could come together for a day instead of fighting each other all the time. Kind of like when we throw board parties and /baph/ and /pol/ and /cuteboys/ and /christian/ and /muslim/ and everyone else all come together and have a nice time just for one day.

We need a GG Archival Corps
I missed HannibalTheVictors channel. but I got Laughnwitch and SRHbutts onto archive.org.
https://archive.org/details/laughnwitch_201510
https://archive.org/details/srhbutts-chimo_Archive
LW's rip was completed mere hours before she pulled her channel so I guarantee you it's the most complete out there, not just specific videos. It's abbout 95 percent of everything she uploaded.
So what we need are a dedicated set of volunteers who can temporally hold and upload to Archive.org a LOT of data. LW was about a 25 gig rip. Not just SJW shit either, ours too so they can't get channels pulled.
If you count re-uploading the video to Youtube as a "archival", you're a fool they can get that pulled too. Archive.org has a mostly bulletproof DMCA exemption (don't upload Hollywood movies there though, I mean it don't abuse that place).
When someone goes after GG, or an individual in GG, or is interesting, we need to map out their online presence and archive it. Archive.is pages, youtube-dl the entire channel not just specific videos, tumblr-utils their tumblrs, mirror deviant arts (theres scrips for this too).
I'm sick of losing peoples channels and them acting like it never happened and Hannibal would have been a great one to get. But at least I got LW and SRHbutts.
I manage a lot of non-GG archival so I'm busy (also easy to get ahold of is you need advice). I need your help. I need your machine time, bandwidth and watchful eyes to make sure this shit doesn't get lost anymore. The best way is to somehow co-ordinate who's doing what and have people stick to it.
DOAX3 literally not getting released in the west because of SJWs, this is not an exaggeration

>"Do you know many issues happening in video game industry with regard to how to treat female in video game industry? We do not want to talk those things here. But certainly we have gone through in last year or two to come to our decision. Thank you."
I wonder how the
>SJWS HAVE NO INFLUENCE ON ANYTHING, ONLY AUTISTS THINK OTHERWISE, THE ONLY COURSE OF ACTION IS TO IGNORE THEM!!!!
types feel now.
And yes, this specific game will get an English translation for the Asian releases from what I gather. But what about many games that won't? Regardless of whether it's a particularly big deal for THIS game or not, such a decision just tells them "yes, you CAN influence the Japanese games industry".
I say let them know how stupid this is. There's barely any reaction at all, I assume because no one is considering the wider implications of this because "YOU CAN STILL PLAY IT IN ENGLISH SO SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU DRAMATIC FAGGOT!!!!!"
GamerGate Ethics Paper, need help.
Greetings /GG/ (not guns and girls).
I'm here because i'm writing a paper for my journalistic ethics class and i want to write about GamerGate. I've been a follower of the movement from the start and find it to be a fantastic example of journalistic ethics gone shit.
I come here asking for any sources explaining the history of the movement, from Quinn's Five Guys, Gawker, Wu and up until now.
If anybody here can help me with this info it would be greatly appreciated.
We're gunna be famous guys!
Guys they're making a film about us! I hope they get sethrogan to play me

HAHA, TIME FOR DEMOGRAPHICS
Pew Research Centre has done a study on the demographics of gamers using a pool of 2000 samples, with only 925 playing games. Seems pretty low to me.

Jim Sterling Did Nothing Wrong
Why is Jim Sterling a name that gets dragged through the mud here? What is it with you faggots and your petty grudges against critics that hold a few different opinions from you? I like Jim Sterling's consumerist critique enough to excuse his feminist apologia. Vid related.
It's like you want the greater public to appreciate gaming as an artform with none of the necessary criticism you don't want to hear because it makes you personally uncomfortable, as high art should at least be able to do.
Fuck Bob Chipman though, that creep says something stupid and off-putting anytime he opens his mouth.
SJWs trying to rebrand Bayonetta as an empowering anti-patriarchal screed or whatever the fuck
twitter.dot.com/MyOwnVelouria/status/675484586902556672
From the same mindset that brought you "anime fanservice is normally wrong and disgusting and misogynist but Kill La Kill is an empowering feminist masterpiece" i.e. "if I like it, it should be allowed"
I have no idea what the panel said as there are no videos yet but I've argued with SA goons trying to make the same points before (horribly) and I doubt these people had anything new to say on the subject.
Chelsea would like your feedback

Seems like a reasonable opportunity to document the abuse you've received at the hands of SJWs for the past year and a bit.

Why GamerGate is Important
Hey everyone, a few weeks ago I wrote an editorial for my College Composition II class about why GamerGate is important. Please let me know what you guys think:
Here's the full text: http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1snqmvj
>The video game community and industry was once a joyous and united place. People worked together to build communities, make custom modifications and create copious amounts of fan content. All was well, or so it seemed, but lurking beneath the surface there was a raging problem. This problem was authoritarian corruption.
>While one would be hard-pressed to argue that video game journalism was transparent and honest prior to August 2014, it became an undeniable fact after that fateful August. What initially started as gamers raising concerns about a single journalist promoting his friend’s game without disclosure, quickly transformed into an inferno consuming almost the entire gaming community and industry.
>Rather than responding to their critics, once-respected gaming publication Kotaku had doubled down and insisted that “everything was fine.” While some may have taken Kotaku at their word, it didn’t take long for evidence to come forth showing that not only had their writer (Nathan Grayson) given positive coverage to his friend’s game, but that another one of their writers (Patricia Hernandez) was doing the same thing. The discovery of these two ethical breaches led many to take critical looks at other gaming publications.
>The public outcry about these various ethical breaches likely would have almost certainly subsided within a couple of weeks. Yet rather than admitting that mistakes were made and apologizing, many publications decided to claim that they were “under attack” by malcontents. Over the course of a few days over a dozen articles across various gaming publications had claimed that gamers were “off the hinges” and many of them even went so far as to claim that gamers and the gaming community were “racist” or “sexist.”
>The accusations of racism and sexism came as a shock to many, especially given that so many publications said almost the exact same thing in such a short period of time. Many gamers felt betrayed by their own press, who they had already been skeptical of over dishonest articles and reviews. While certainly there may be some racists, sexists and homophobes in the gaming community, they are a minority and do not represent the core gaming culture. To make matters worse, it was revealed that there was a secret email list for games journalists and members of the group had no problem openly discussing agenda-pushing. It quickly became clear that anyone who dared to suggest that these publications adopt ethical policies and act more transparently would be labeled a racist, sexist, homophobe, harasser or in some cases even a terrorist.
>A cursory look at gaming journalism over the past several years indicates that these negative attitudes against gamers were hardly new among the gaming press. Articles dating back half a decade indicate that some gaming journalists felt a sense of superiority over their audience and were more interested in pushing their personal political ideology, rather than discussing gaming with the plebeians. These gaming journalists are entitled to their opinion and are free to review games from a political perspective, but they absolutely should not be above criticism, nor should their political views give them a free pass to mislead consumers.

This is amazing. Journos got triggered that they can't control the narrative and people can shit talk the artsy fartsy games their friends make.

Based Nippon is fighting, why are the western game developers hiding in their safe spaces?
Operation Rainfall also asked if we can start seeing more Asia releases like Moero Chronicle in the future. Akenaga seemed more concerned in trying to fix the situation in the West:
>That’s actually Compile Heart Asia’s decision, not really ours. We could start seeing that more in Asia, but maybe we should do something to change in the West in the future. Anyway, we just don’t want to censor anymore.

Conflicts of Interest at IGN
So, There is an Associate Editor at IGN by the name of Brendan Graeber, who uses the Handle "RaggaFragga"
This is his Twitter Handle - https://twitter.com/Ragga_Fragga
Here you can see him touting "5 awesome Metroid Levels in Mario Maker" www.ign.com/videos/2015/09/17/5-awesome-metroid-levels-in-super-mario-maker-made-in-mario
and he's also done a 5 awesome Zelda videos.
Brendan is also responsible for most of the Wiki's on the website.
This all seems nice and innocent, but in these videos, The people that made the "awesome Zelda/Metroid" levels are all made from users of a streaming website that Brendan visits called "Vidya Shorts", where he is a well respected member of their Autismo community. Brendan doesn't hide this on his twitter page, but fails to mention that his friends made the levels. He's basically whoring out his friends streams and not disclosing it.
On top of that, if you spend a short amount of time on VidyaShorts you can see "RaggaFragga" offering early copies of games/press swag to users, if they write his wiki/faq's for him, and he does not disclose this either.
You can't spell IGN without Ignorant.

Explaining GG and Literally Who's to the Uninitiated
A friend of mine expressed concern when I posted this image, asking for context, apparently completely unexposed to all the happenings, asking for context. I tried my best to sound unbiased and focus on the raw facts, without seeming overbearing about it all, but I'd like your opinions on it all really.
"Ohhhhh my god. Ohhhhhhhh my god. Turn back now, only madness is beyond this point. The most basic of basic explanations I can give you is that these two are 'professional victims' under the guise of political or social activists, mainly pertaining to women's rights. They make radical, accusatory claims like 'video games are sexist', 'straight white males are evil' without providing evidence for their claims, and when people try to call them out on it they cry MISOGYNY rather than engaging in an actual discussion, mainly because they close their comment sections and block anyone who disagrees with them.
Naturally they've got Kickstarters and Patreons and they rack up millions in sympathy pennies for existing, and standing up to those nasty trolls by making their echo chamber even more fortified, enough to the point that they were invited to the UN to babble about how oppressed and underprivileged they were, and that free speech is too dangerous for the internet."
Job Casualties of Crybullies and Neo Puritans; A list
I've begun to put together a list of people who have been run from their jobs and their careers by SJWs and Neo Puritanism. People who had their livlihood taken from them for the crime of saying words, in their free time, that other people didn't like. I think that it's high time that we all take scope and scale of this phenomena and start to support these people's right to free speech. It's time to consider the breadth of the bodycount of people who were deprived of their ability to pay their rent and feed and clothe themselves.
I'm not saying that someone who works for Company X, or who is being paid to represent Company X, should be able to post "Hey, everyone, Company X sucks big dicks and rapes grandmas!!! Fuck Company X!!!", nor do I think people should be even posting online while they're on Company X's clock. But when they're off the clock, nothing they do is any of Company X's fucking business. And the only way that Company X will be stopped from this is if they experience a large enough push back against these firings. I may not agree with what these people say. But I will fucking die on the line for their right to say it.
So, here is the list as I've gathered it. I'm sure there is more. I would like the top comments to remain additions to the list, but I'm not your fucking mother. Figure it out yourselves;
what would gg do with a million dollars?
was just thinking, does GamerGate have enough active members to make bitcoin farming an option? money could go toward I dunno what. helping hotwheels keep 8chan afloat. help kickstart projects sjw's shut down. etc.
I know my broke ass doesn't have a lot in the way of money but I got plenty of cpu cycles going to waste.

ELEVEN DAYS UNTIL GAMERGATE'S BIRTHDAY
Reminder, If You Use "SJT" Instead of SJW, You're a Fucking Moron Who Should Be Kicked in the Nuts
Saw some of this in /v/ recently. Supposedly, this term means "social justice terrorist." I don't know whose idea this was, but it's terrible. It reminds me of the idea of dropping the hashtag. Only, it's worse.
Want to know why? SJW as a term has caught on with normies and is plowing the way for our long term success. I've heard complete randos who don't know anything about GG or even Tumblr using it recently. We should stick with SJW, because it's the one that caught on, and it's a good part of the reason why we're winning this war. Look at what happened with Play-Asia. Just mentioning the word was like dropping a bomb on them.
Overall, switching now would undermine or momentum. Beyond that, it creates some kind of separation between SJTs and SJWs, which would make it seem like SJWs are okay some how and it's only the few rotten apple SJTs or some retarded shit. Don't fall for this!
Okay people, time to meme this out
So Cracked is now poking fun of #YesAllWomenGate, are we ready to debate the people?
"Oh, why are the gamers mad?"
>The idiot understands feminism at the end by trolling
Why are we not IGF digging?
Judging for the corrupt IGF is going on RIGHT NOW. This was the BIGGEST STORY in the early days of GamerGate when it was proven that the SJW festival skipped over real games like RogueStar's to give awards (and CASH MONEY) to SJW garbage.
SILVERSTRING MEDIA has a game in this year's entries, how much you want to bet that all the judges are going to collude to give it an award?
Other SJW shit like Undertale and Cibele are also in for awards.
I remember other anons were talking about getting into the judging group to make sure that this shit didn't happen, were we just too lazy to do it?
The top prize for this is $30,000! $30,000 in hipster welfare to corrupt SJW trash. WHY ARE WE NOT DIGGING???
So I'm writing about #GG...
Hey /gghq/, long story short is I'm doing a run-down of the first year of GamerGate for the final project of one of my classes. Everything's going alright so far, and the professor is on board with the idea but I'm having trouble finding info on GG after May 2015 where the Gamergate Wiki just stops. I'd rather not use solely the Ghazi wiki as a source for four whole months, even if I've used it for a few pieces of info. I admittedly stopped paying total attention to #GG around the time the SVU episode aired but that's my bad.
Basically aside from ##GGinDC, DeepFreeze and SWJ Airplay, I need a refresher on the big happenings between May and August. Images and Links preferred, but a basic rundown works too.
Making Our Own Studios and Games
I've been in GG over a year. I know we have our preferred journalism outlets, we supported a feminist charity to make their own game after LW attacked them, and we have devs on our side. Our angle is that we speak for gamers, and that we have silent support from many studios.
However, I think after this bullshit with DOAX3 getting pulled from the western marketplace, there needs to be bigger steps taken here. Obviously, I think something tagged too obviously as the GG studio would be cringey as fuck, but we need to do something that has more infrastructure to it then a Kickstarter from randos or supporting random indie games.
Remember censorship of games by the government is illegal in the US. The Supreme Court said so. There is no reason this new wave of censorship should be happening if it weren't for cowardly marketing hacks bowing to archaic PR bullshit instead of catering products to what their customers actually want.
So how do you break this cycle and change the paradigm? I think it's what was done in the past. Remember the early 90's when all games were considered kiddy fare and censorship for violence was prevalent and heavy handed? What broke that? It was Mortal Kombat's success that forced everyone else to change. We need to do something like that in regards to integrating fun sex appeal into games. If it sells well, it will set a precedent. That has happened in the past with sexy games, however, due to SJWs and censorious feminazis, they are influencing vulnerable studios to peddle it back. What we need to have is people in place that will not back down to bullshit Twitter criticisms or Shitaku articles. We need players in that the game that will not be co-opted by SJWs. That will show you can tell these people to piss off and still succeed. It will make everyone remember that there's no such thing as bad PR for entertainment products, which is still the fucking truth but we now have people buying this bullshit from social media keyboard warriors who screech it loud enough it creates an illusion that they represent the average customer.
Just some rambling thoughts. I think this past week has been the worst for me in all of GG, just because all of this censorship bullshit that now seems to be happening with more frequency. Something needs to happen for sure.
Why does Anita refuse to point out legitimate acts of sexism?
If Anita was to point out examples of sexism in gaming that would make the majority of gamers say "Yeah, that's definitely sexist", would anyone but the most neckbearded virgin say a bad word against her?
For instance, the Borderlands guy John Hemingway referring to Mechromancer as "girlfriend mode" because she's easy to play even if you really suck at FPS games (and then backpedaling like a motherfucker when called out on it), or a female player at a Brawl (I think) tournament who was assumed to be a spectator or brought along as eye-candy according to a commentator. If she was to actually put her hairy arse in gear and bring up shit like that instead of beating up digital women, would you unironically watch her videos and such?
On a related note, what other examples of actual sexism in gaming can you think of? Those are literally the only two that cross my mind, and it's pretty much saying that the whole drama is stretched to breaking point.
New visitor here
Is it really true that this board has harsher rules than 4chan and reddit combined? Isn't that what GG fought against in the first place?
Dutch Thread

Everyday Feminism rehashes old comic to provide 37 strawmen (including, once again, infantizing women by declaring any women opposed to feminists to be "good girl" or "anti-women") and manages to name drop GamerGate out of nowhere.
They're going to be pushing this everywhere they can. Their narrative is slipping, so now they have to lump all their enemies together.
Is blacklisting of Kotaku just desserts or a reminder of the control of publisher's over the media?
red*dit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/3u98ai/is_blacklisting_of_kotaku_simply_just_desserts_or/
>tl;dr: The fact that publisher's are able to threaten an outlet's ability to create content with blacklisting is horrible and shouldn't be celebrated as it enforces their ability to control information on the products and effectively turn the media into a glorified PR-department. The media itself is to blame as it is complicit with this practice and sites like IGN are just as much the antithesis to good and ethical journalistic practices as Kotaku is - one exemplifies mass corporate shilling, the other exemplifies yellow journalism and agenda pushing.

Gawker to Retool as Politics Site'
>The change, which comes as part of a broad reorganization of the site’s parent company, Gawker Media, was announced in a memo to the staff on Tuesday. The site, wrote Gawker’s founder, Nick Denton, “will ride the circus of the 2016 campaign cycle, seizing the opportunity to reorient its editorial scope on political news, commentary and satire.”
>The shift comes after a controversy over the publication and subsequent retraction of an article this summer that led to the resignations of two top editors. The company will now focus on its seven core sites, which include the technology site Gizmodo and the sports site Deadspin, and close smaller offshoots like Defamer, a Hollywood site.

Jimmy is sent to the principal’s office for using an inappropriate word in the school paper. His integrity as a newsman runs head on into PC Principals ideology. Will Jimmy be the undoing of PC Principal?
It might be happening. South Park might talk about GG maybe even indirectly.

Rise Of The Red Guard
American McGee nailed it.
https://tweetsave.com/americanmcgee/status/664227477674266624
>Origins
>The first students to call themselves "Red Guards" in China were a group of students at the Tsinghua University Middle School who were given the name Red Guards to sign two big-character posters issued on 25 May – 2 June 1966.[2] The students believed that the criticism of the play Hai Rui Dismissed from Office was a political issue and needed greater attention. The group of students, led by Zhang Chengzhi at Tsinghua University Middle School and Nie Yuanzi at Peking University, originally wrote the posters as a constructive criticism of Tsinghua University and Peking University's administration, which were accused of harboring "intellectual elitism" and "bourgeois" tendencies.[3] However, they were denounced as "counter-revolutionaries" and "radicals" by the school administration and fellow students, and were forced to secretly meet amongst the ruins of the Old Summer Palace. Nevertheless, Chairman Mao Zedong ordered that the manifesto of the Red Guards be broadcast on national radio and published in the People's Daily newspaper. This action gave the Red Guards political legitimacy, and student groups quickly began to appear across China.[4]
>Due to the factionalism already beginning to emerge in the Red Guard movement, Liu Shaoqi made the decision in early June 1966 to send in Communist Party of China (CPC) work teams.[2] These work groups were led by Zhang Chunqiao, head of China's Propaganda Department, and were the attempt by the Party to keep the movement under its control. Rival Red Guard groups led by the sons and daughters of cadres were formed by these work teams to deflect attacks away from those in positions of power towards bourgeois elements in society, mainly intellectuals.[4] In addition, these Party-backed rebel groups also attacked students with 'bad' class backgrounds (these included the children of former landlords and capitalists).[4] These actions were all attempts by the CPC to preserve the existing state government and apparatus.[2]
>Mao, concerned that these work teams were hindering the course of the Cultural Revolution, dispatched Chen Boda, Jiang Qing, Kang Sheng, and others to join the Red Guards and combat the work teams.[3] In July 1966, Mao ordered the removal of the remaining work teams (against the wishes of Liu Shaoqi) and condemned their 'fifty days of White Terror'.[5] The Red Guards were now free to organise without the restrictions of the Party and, within a few weeks, on the encouragement of Mao's supporters, Red Guard groups had appeared in almost every school in China.[6]
We should have a clear definition for SJW
At this point I truly believe that thanks to Gamergate, the backlash against SJWs is beginning, and part of that is the fact that more people will begin to use "SJW" in public. The obvious counter attack agiainst that will be "SJW is just a buzzword used to shut down people seeking justice for women and POC" and all that mess. I think there is a pretty clear line dividing SJWs from say, someone who believes in social justice.
A social justice warrior
1.Feels justified in publicly shaming those who disagree with them
2.Likes to Wantonly redefine words while outright refusing to debate said re-definition (i.e. "not my job to educate u shitlord")
3.Believes that both oppression and guilt for oppression should be collectivized to the point where the actions of individuals should be viewed through the lens of said collective guilt or lack thereof (i.e. "a black person cannot be racist because of the system" "everything a white person does is racist because of the system of oppression they benefit from")
4.Believes that someone who agrees with 90% of what they believe should be treated like a mortal enemy.

#GG political leanings
Hi, I was wondering about #GG's political leanings. I know SJWs say it's far-right and I've seen a survey produced by a different GG board that says it's a mix with most being center-left. I thought I'd ask and see what the mood is here. So if you don't mind, would you tell me your:
Political leanings:
>eg left, right, centre-right, far-left, etc
Political ideology:
>eg socialist, capitalist, etc
Country and fave political party there:
Fave US 2016 candidate:
Personal labels:
>eg feminist/anti-feminist, SJW/anti-SJW, MRA/anti-MRA, masculinist, whatever you call yourself
Main interest in GG:
>why you're a GGer, eg video games, politics, journalistic integrity, anti-SJWism, anti-feminism, egalitarianism, etc
Other activism:
>eg any protests you go to, other causes you support, etc
Fave charitable causes:
>the kinds of charities you support, if any
I don't want to ask anything identifying, only your views. I only ask location so that I can understand your answer to which of your local parties you prefer.
I'm posting here since this is the biggest GG board, but if one of the others would be a better place to ask, tell me so. I don't know the difference between them all.
My personal views are sympathetic to #GG, but I've never got involved at all.

Gamespots Terrible Review of Afro Samurai 2
Now I'm sure the game sucks for a variety of reasons, but this part of the review is unwarranted and bad:
>Afro Samurai 2 needlessly objectifies women for the sake of nothing but titillation and attitude. The reverb from this particular blare of ignorance is deafening.
>One scene in particular stands out as egregiously offensive and juvenile. Upon entering a bar filled with women in g-strings (and nothing else), you're confronted by slow zooms and pans on a stripper in the center of the room. An equally-naked DJ calls for your head, but not before the camera shifts to a close-up of her exposed, undulating body. This scene is justified by the plot as a place where men gather, but that premise–because the setting could have been a number of other less salacious locations–is a farce. There's no explicit need to showcase nipples for minutes on end for the story to accomplish its goal. To add insult to injury, upon meeting your mark after your battle with the DJ, he repeatedly refers to her as "that dead bitch." Afro Samurai 2 needlessly objectifies women for the sake of nothing but titillation and attitude. The reverb from this particular blare of ignorance is deafening.

TIME Magazine writer shilling for indie friends?
TIME Magazine has released their 2015 Game of the Year list on their website. Now, I have no problem with their taste in video games, no matter how bad it is. With that said, their pick for the #1 game this year is highly questionable.
http://time.com/4106659/top-10-video-games/
>1. Prune
>As its name suggests, Prune is a game about removing things to nurture other things.
>But it’s also about basking in a minimalist garden of forking paths as you work out the spatial logistics of coaxing a tree to blossom.
>It’s both an arboricultural exercise and a meditation–on light, darkness, color, sound and perhaps most of all, the things we’re forced to leave behind.
Basically, it's an iOS game that plays a bit like Fruit Ninja. I've never heard of it. No one seems to have heard of it. It holds less than 5,000 ratings on the App Store and Google Play combined. The way I see it, there are two possibilities here:
1: This (anonymous?) author really, REALLY likes mediocre iOS games.
2: The author is friends with the developers of Prune, and is using TIME to virally market the game.
What does /gamergatehq/ think? Is this worth looking into?
Assassins Creed Syndicate
>Anita and her harpies raise a stink about Assassins Creed Unity not having the inevitable female protagonist in a main title
>SJWsoft decides to include one in Syndicste because what is this the sixth, ninth, tenth PC/console game in the series with no gender and gender identity diversity
>The girl is basically a stealthy British Marysue, whereas the brother is the muscle
>You're supposed to take London back from the Templar street gangs
>Interestingly enough, these street gangs include women
>In Victorian London
>That you're encouraged to beat to a bloody pulp
Wow fuck historical accuracy. Is this the gender equality Anita would've wanted? Fistfights in this game can get pretty brutal.
It's one of the better Sassins Creeds, right behind Black Flag. Just above 3. Probably better than Unity which I didn't bother with. No I didn't pay full price for it - I got it free with an SSD I bought.

Update on Fem Freq's Resident Sex Offender
We all know that Feminist Frequency hired a registered sex offender named Valis77. But LeoPirate, the same YouTuber who made a video investigating Nicholas Nyberg's infamous chat logs, has released a new video investigating Valis77.
Grab some popcorn, kick your feet up, and watch just some of the disturbing shit that's on FemFreq's payroll.

Zoe Quinn Movie Being Made with Scarlett Johansson as the Sexy SJW Harassed by You Virgins
> Amy Pascal’s Pascal Pictures has won a bidding battle for Crash Override: How To Save The Internet From Itself, a memoir by game designer Zoe Quinn that sold to Touchstone/Simon & Schuster and will be published September, 2016. The property was bid on by several studios and TV outlets, and several actresses are circling, with interest from Scarlett Johansson said to be keenest.
>The movie deal was based on a proposal titled Control Alt Delete, and tells the story of how Quinn, creator of the hip interactive game Depression Quest, was targeted by a digital mob bent on upending her life when a blog post by her ex-boyfriend went viral. It sparked the widely-discussed Gamergate controversy and took a surprising turn when instead of running, she decided to fight back. It is a very inside look at gaming and nerd culture and what happens when one gets caught in the gears of that machine.
>Rebecca Angelo and Lauren Schuker Blum are set to adapt. Pascal Pictures will finance and Pascal will produce with Rachel O’Connor, and Entertainment 360. The latter got the book proposal early on, and created the package with the screenwriters, who met while working as journalists at the Wall Street Journal. It was then shopped and Pascal Pictures stepped up. Pascal Pictures is Sony-based and that studio will get first crack; for right now, its development is being funded internally by Pascal. CAA brokered the deal. The agency and Management 360 repped the scribes, whose first project — the Tammany Hall-set feature An Extraordinary Man — has Anne Hathaway attached and is set up at Erika Olde’s Black Bicycle Entertainment.
>Quinn perhaps best describes the potential movie and conflict in her proposal: “Gaming and internet message boards used to be niche interests, mostly for young men. In the past few years, however, they’ve gone mainstream. Millions of people — including women and other marginalized people — have taken an interest in the platforms, image boards, and discussion forums that once belonged by default to a much smaller population. Most gamers give zero fu*ks about this. Like the rest of us, they’re just here to play games. But a vocal minority are clinging onto the brand of Cheetos-and-Mountain-Dew exclusionary identity ‘hardcore gamer,’ muttering ‘fu*kin casuals’ under their breath.”

Hey faggots
We need to bring the hammer down on kotaku. the time is right for emails.
Plan: EMAILS
From >>300226 :
Compose personalized emails to advertisers explaining that their advertisements on these websites, where they slander their own customers and call them dead, repeatedly publish private photos of celebrities, and engage in libel, defamation, copyright infringement and theft, are detrimental to the value of their brands, and continued advertisements can lead to an negative association for their brand.
It’s OK to use templates, but advertisers receiving the same letter over and over are more likely to disregard the letters.
Don’t mention GamerGate, because our goal is not to convince them of GamerGate’s legitimacy, nor to gain their support of GamerGate, but instead, convince them to act in defense of their brand’s image.

YOU ARE LEGIT NI/GG/ERS
YOU KNOW WHAT I AM FUCKING TIRED OF. IN EVERY FUCKING REGARD. JOURNALISM. FUCK GAMERGATE, AND THE "FED" WHO RUNS THE BOARDS, FUCK SJW WHO JOIN IT, AND FUCK EVERY OTHER PIECE OF SHIT ASSOCIATED WITH IT.
GAMING JOURNALISM IS A SMALL PART OF THE WORLD. THE GREATER MEDIA IS CORRUPTED. JUST FUCK THE MEDIA ENTIRELY. WHY FOCUS ON JUST GAMES WHEN YOU CAN ATTACK MEDIA AS A WHOLE. IT SEEMS BIG BUT THERE ARE PLENTY OF MEDIA FUCKUPS EVERY YEAR TO CAPITALIZE OFF OF, AND I DON'T EVEN CARE WHAT HAPPENS AT THIS POINT.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG.
Advancing GG into other countries
I just thought of an idea which could increase the level of influence that GG has.
Translating it into other languages. The more the better. Most of the prominent SJW's language is english, and i think although SJW culture has spread far actoss the world already, they havent have something like GG working against it.
I dont think this is optional, its a must - and we must get the jump on SJW's before they start infecting other countries even more than they have.
PolandBall, yes this still exists...
I want some opinions on which ball to use to represent GamerGate. I might change the 4chan logo to a 8chan one as that might make more sense now.
Top 10 Most Repugnant aGGros
About this list: All of them are frauds, all of them are tyrants, all of them are narcissists, all of them are Twitter shitters, all of them are social justice nazis without the slightest bit of empathy or humanity. Let's make fun of them.
10. Jim Sterling
With his wide influence and legions of fans, this fat hypocritical cunt has long used his platform to spread corporate lies while pretending to be a champion of the people.
He has never gone against the flow, never taken a stand. When the public was against the Xbone, he became against the Xbone. When the public was against gobstoppers (especially since he has been implicated in several cases of corruption himself), he was too. Also loves doxing, as seen in the attached video, something that many SJWs claim only granitegrabbers do.
9. Leigh Alexander
Though she hasn't done much in the past year except ruin her liver, let's not forget that Alexander is the one who started the "gamers are over" cavalcade of bullshit and is complicit in multiple accounts of vidya website corruption, and therefore is as much a catalyst of causing Gamergate to happen as Quinn.
She's also a really, really bad writer, which may be her worst crime of all.
8. Arthur Chu
A tireless socjus propagandist and all-around evil cunt who has spent many long years preaching lies. Unlike everyone else on this list, he is actually smart, and therefore his brand of evil is much more dangerous.
There isn't any proof that he made the bomb threats (way more credible than Sharkeesian's according to the FBI) to SPJ Airplay; it could have been any social justice nazi who wanted to silence their foes.
7. Randi Harper
A professional Twitter harasser who has the gall to claim to be an anti-harassing crusader. Created the Twitter blacklist bot that is not only apalling in its existence but also incompetent in practice; KFC is amongst the evil grannygropers who have been blocked by Randwhale's bumbling bumfuckery. Speaks her hypocritical fascist bullshit at Google now; time to close my Gmail account.
6. John Flynt
Though this severely mentally ill man lost a lot of credibility among the enemy by doing one good thing in his life, he has still caused gigantic amounts of damage to the truth with his unique brand of psychopathy. Notable for vehemently attacking people on Twitter (seeing a pattern here?) and playing the victim if anyone questions him. The media worshiped him for a time.
Particularly lolworthy is the time when he faked harassment against himself on Steam but forgot to log out of his main account first. Many screenshots of this fuckup exist.
5. Jay Allen
Particularly vicious, cruel, and spiteful even by aGGro standards, Jay Allen works tirelessly on Twitter to harass and lie about anyone who questions the media's narrative. Deliberately takes enemy tweets out of context and uses them as ammo to continue attacking the innocent and retweet it to his four thousand followers. The reason why he's so high up is that he has a decent amount of media influence, unlike a few of the others who are just various dumbasses. An underrated aGGro; watch out for this evil fuck.
South Park episode on GamerGate?
This entire season of South Park has been about SJWs, and Wednesday's episode is about ethics in journalism.
http://southpark.cc.com/blog/2015/11/16/episode-1908-sponsored-content-press-release
The episode is literally called Sponsored Content. I know where this is going.
AirPlay 2: The Triggering
In case everyone hasn't been too busy sperging out along with the trolls, another AirPlay meeting is being organized. And like before, they're asking for help with the funding.
https://www.gofundme.com/rc9ku2ww
The timing of this is fucking atrocious given the recent fuckfest with Steve, but what are you gonna do. Things seem to be planned for next February and at least some of the previous speakers are already confirmed.
Given that the SXSW panel got flipped under our noses into a harassment-centric discussion, this is another platform to regroup and re-do that debate. If you can, throw them a few bucks and start making noise about this on /v/, KiA and Twatter, because I'm surprised by how nobody seems to be talking about this.
Old OC Thread
Hey GGHQ

gamergate=sjw
I hope you people are aware that you are the laughing stuck of the outside world. I know you like to pretend you are heroes, and you like to pretend the people see you as villains, but really you are nothing more then a joke, and a bad one at that.
Now I know that you will just call me a sjw and dismiss me, since that's what you do best. Well I'm not, I don't care about the sjw's, I don't let them effect my life. You on the other hand, ever aspect of your life is revolved around "fighting" them. You can't see that you are just like them. They get offended when they see sexiest characters in games, you get offended when you see games you don't like (sunset).
You make me ashamed to go onto chans, shit, the fucking pedos are better then you. You are nothing more then an angry 20something locked in his room in his moms house, sad that some video games don't completely pander to you. I'm 19 and I haven't played a video game in 3 years and my life is great, learn from me. sure, I used to be an angry virgin too, but I grew the fuck up.

Youtube paying creators legal fees for frivolous copyright claims!!!
Archive: https://archive.is/Ryr3Z
"Since its inception, YouTube has been embroiled in long and bitter battles over copyright infringement. And over the years, the video site has increased its policing of pirated material. But too often, the company says, the demands of copyright holders to take down videos go too far.
Now, YouTube is taking the unusual step of financially supporting YouTube creators so they can fight back.
YouTube said on Thursday that it would pick up the legal costs of a handful of video creators that the company thinks are the targets of unfair takedown demands. It said the creators it chose legally use third-party content under “fair use” provisions carved out for commentary, criticism, news and parody."
So, when can we get some of the ProGG crowd and video game reviewers attacked by developers protected?
I don't understand the difference between ggrevolt and gghq
Somebody care to explain why we have two GamerGate boards? I'm not understanding why exactly we divided in this way. Is there some ideological difference here? Why would somebody choose going to one over the other?
Social Justice
Are these good points? I had what I thought was a very enlightening dream about social justice and woke up with tons of ideas I brought back from the dream world. I'm going to write an essay on this, how are my key points?
1. Social justice is essentially a form of mass vigilanteism. It is an extreme form of mob rule, and is a refusal to rely on the law for punishment and regulations. It is an ideology that claims it is capable of being an unbiased judge, jury, and executioneer all at the same time. All with zero experience with the study of law, nor the aknowledgement of individual rights.
2. Social Justice doctrine is the same dangerous principals that I grew up with in church. The idea that there is No grey area and everything is black and white. A huge problem being they claim exclusive rights to arbitrarily decide what is black and what is white, and everything they once deemed 'grey' is moved to the black.
3. Social justice ideology is a form of political and cultural fascism incapable of coexisting. It is a movement to persecute and eradicate minority opinions. It's end goal is to have everyone share the same opinions and values with again 'them' being the only ones with the authority to make such decisions. it is therefore an affront to the American way of life, and an indirect competition to our established system of government, especially the judicial system. This also applies to other western nations where the Social Justice movements are rising, and soon in Asia, specifically Japan.
4. Social Justice is a threat to liberty. It is wholly authoritarian.
5. Social justice is bad for business and profits, essentially limiting the types of entertainment, clothing, etc. that is deemed 'acceptable', while failing to change the tastes and desires of the consumers who were already buying those 'unacceptable' things, as they are labeled problematic and will feel betrayed / cast out and will stop buying those products.
I will be of course expanding on all of these topics greatly, but what does anon think about these points? Are they nonsense? Anything to refine/change/add?

Is gamer gate dead?
Am I the only one who see's the cancer that is plaguing KIA and VOAT. What happened to the OPs we used to have? Now its just like look at what these SJWs are doing and political crap. I thought we were supposed to keep politics out of gaming. What went wrong?
Sorry if this has been posted b4. I have not been here in months.
Fight back against NoA censorship
Not only did they age Lyn up and alter her skimpy outfits in Xenoblade Cross they altered her body so she's a deformed dwarf (which will absolutely break tons of shit).
Why aren't you fighting back?
https://ap.nintendo.com/report/
Report FFshrine. org for being a massive database of pirated music, include several OSTs which Nintendo owns. Mention NoA employee @alisonrapp (who is openly pro-censorship and will continue to grow in power if left unchecked though no need to mention this) follows the webmaster (you can choose include the fact that Nick is a pedophile who talks about the erections "her" cousin gives him or not)
http://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/contact
Under corporate choose corporate responsibility. Accuse NoA of xenophobia against for their hostility to Japanese culture and censoring things for this reason. Include any of Xenoblade X, Fire Emblem: Fates and Fatal Frame censorship you wish.
You can tell this is a good idea because the /v/ thread was instantly flooded by people calling Nick Nyberg "she" that tried to stop it.
gex censorship
hello!
this isn't related to games, but I think it's something that gamergate would be interested in at least knowing about.
Gex makes cool (imo) political videos about the immigration crises. The current one hit 1m views and now is being censored under 'copyright'.

As of now #boycottstarwarsvii has risen to the #1 trend on twitter due to /pol/ and sections of 4chan getting involved, so lets take this opportunity to get awareness out there of EA, Disney and the gaming press' malpractices with possibly inflating Battlefront reviews and the piss poor product they are putting out and the gaming press pushing it hard with episode 7s release.
Post any good info you have regarding EA buying reviews, Disney and EA influencing those sites regarding Star Wars and any possible evidence to suggest EA will buy reviews for Battlefront.

Open Letter to Acidman the faggot who killed GG
Hey Acidman you Faggot.
Still scratching your head and wondering why your board is dying?
Maybe it's because you still have yourself convinced that it's about "ethics"
It's only ever been about pushing back against the SJW menace.
Fighting for ethics was just one tool in the box to achieve that goal. We had evidence of wrongdoing and it was easy to show the world what these sheeple were up to.
Those of us who gave a shit about the future of our education system, and cared about authoritarians joined you you and once you "ethics" faggots got what you wanted, you turned your back on us.
That is why your board has dropped from 4500 just a year ago to the tiny 250 you've got right now.
Whoop dee fucking doo. we got SPJ to agree with us on one of our goals. That's it. Then you and the faggot e-celeb gang called it a win and went home with only about 1% of the job being done.
We haven't won. SJW's are still petitioning our governments and still trying to take our right's away in the name of authoritarian social justice.
Nothing you have done will prevent another LW, LW2, Steph Guthrie, or any of the other ridiculous shit we've seen over the past year.
Stop crying about ethics and get your fucking shit together.
Now #GG is divided and scattered.
The name which used to strike fear into the hearts of those who conspire against us only makes our former allies laugh at what it has become.
And it all happened on your watch.
Possible blame on video games incoming
a gamer who isn't pro-GG, but not anti-GG
I've made topics and posts on here before to this effect, but I'll go into some things I never really touched on.
To summarize- I've been a gamer since at least 1985. I had the NES and Atari 7800 when they were new.
I feel that GG lost any merit for bot starting years ago. I feel that Zoe was not the catalyst that should've set it off, it should've remained a domestic argument between her and her ex, not involving a dipshit actor on twitter, not involving fucking /pol/. That's another point, you should've told /pol/ to FUCK OFF instead of making them part of your movement. They don't play games, they don't give a shit about games. Good on Gerstmann for calling this crap out.
I am a "race traitor" in that I don't feel any need to bond with other whites. I don't care about the race as a whole, racial unity is fucking garbage no matter the race. Boo hoo, go cry about it because I'm not at the Klan rally. I didn't sign an agreement of racial loyalty.
I support women's rights, gay rights, and all that. I even support religious rights despite being an atheist, so long as no one crosses the line. Mike Huckabee crosses the line when he claims that gays existing infringes on him somehow, because Huckabee is a dumbass hatemonger. If more Christians behaved like Fred Rogers instead of Fred Phelps it would solve a lot of problems.
And yet I'm not an SJW. The SJW movement is a new-wave fascist organization. They're calling for a war against those they consider different. They're comparable to /pol/. They fake being transgendered for attention, insulting the ones who undergo years of mental therapy, hormone treatments and surgeries.
Anita is right… but only about 25% or so. The rest she shits out is fascist nonsense. Troves VS Women is no better than that Open Gates /pol/ movie, and about as factual. It's the same mentality you see in Birth of a Nation or Triumph of the Will.
Comparing the SJW ot the white supremacist pisses both of them off because they know it's right.
The fact you consider Zoe to be worse than all those police officers going around gunning down unarmed people makes you a bunch of shitheads. Shoplifting, selling homemade cigarettes, flashing high beams, those do not warrant being shot. But you will sit there and insist that Darren Wilson is better than Zoe. "But Zoe is a professional victim"! I can say the same about David Duke, Louis Farrakhan, Al Sharpton, /pol/, the list goes on.
You whine as much as an SJW does over the same insignificant shit. "They censored a panty shot in this game WAAAH!". Who fucking cares? I have internet porn, I can see hentai of that character, I don't need a goddamned 2-second panty shot to be happy! How old are some of you, 12 or younger? The world loves crying over pointless non-issues though.
How is Donald Trump's baseless accusation that all immigrants are criminals ANY different than Anita saying that all men are rapists? It's NOT.
GG has never been anything BUT a bigot movement. I don't know why you won't just admit it. Racists seem ashamed to be called racists for reasons I don't understand.
Mile Yiannotfunny can get the same cancer Bill Hicks died of. He's as much of a piece of trash as Bill Hicks.
Gaming journalism is just advertisements. It's not news. It's been bought and paid for since the early 80s. You never minded until now, because this issue started over some Christian right-wing actor hating a woman for leaving the kitchen. No, sorry to break it to you, but the Gerstmann firing was WORSE than anything you claim Zoe did.
I'm neither pro-GG nor anti-GG because both sides of this bullshit are in the wrong. SHUT THE HELL UP!
Dumb shit GG does
This is why I stopped being a "Gamergater".
Why are you doing shit things like this? Why don't you call out people who do these shit things?
Fuck GamerGate it's past its prime and became a shitfest.
SXSW Gaming Pannel Restored (for real this time)
http://www.theopengamingsociety.org/savepointcoming-full-circle/
Alright we're back on gaming (journalism), so let me say this right now…!
…just wanted to do that once. Anyhow, in case everyone's had their heads too far up their asses in unrelated bullshit, a reminder:
-Blue Whale and others were going to host a panel on harassment at SXSW called "Level Up".
-Lynn Walsh, Mercedes Carrera and some guy I don't know were going to host a panel on Gaming Journalism at SXSW called "Save Point".
-SJWs cried bitch tears about the latter.
-Threats started pouring in, ostensibly at both panels, so SXSW canceled both.
-The media mostly blamed us about this, pretending both panels were about harassment because OF COURSE THEY DID.
-SXSW decided to host a separate whole-day summit on harassment to quiet down complaints.
-This was a raw deal for us because they basically switched the topic of the Save Point panel to harassment.
Now, it seems SXSW has reversed the last decision and Save Point is back to being scheduled at the regular SXSW event with the original topic and panelists.
So, unless SXSW does YET ANOTHER another flip-flop, we got something else to look forward to.
Head of Xbox tweets John Flynt's Tomb Raider article
Phil Spencer, the head of Xbox, tweeted a link to a Polygon article written by John Flynt with the bullshit claim that Lara Croft has gone from just a sex symbol to a proper gaming icon.
Any fellow SEGA fans around during the Saturn era will know that Tomb Raider was eagerly anticipated as a revolutionary new 3D action-adventure game (and Saturn console exclusive until the announcement of a Playstation port late in development) and nobody gave a shit about the sex of the character before it was released. Then when it was released it was widely regarded as an awesome game because of the gameplay regardless of the playable character.
All the "sex symbol" stuff mostly started with the casting of Rhona Mitra as the original Lara Croft for marketing and people were talking about her rather than Lara in the game, then the "sexy Lara" thing was pushing for marketing future games. Not that anyone should have problems with "sex symbols" anyway. (Other than the fact that even the pre-rendered Lara in those days didn't look sexy at all, so anybody playing Tomb Raider because they fancied a low-poly female character would be a total freak.)

#GamerGate: A Porn Parody
You know what? If LW is getting a movie, we can, too. And there's only one director I trust to show everything the way it's supposed to: Axel Braun.
In other words, let's come up with a GamerGate porn parody, just for shits and giggles.
Who would you cast?
What kinda scenes would you want to see?
Should Milo Yankopullos only do a gay scene or take Based MILF during the bomb threat like a gentleman should?

Twitter Censors Tweets
https://soylentnews.org/comments.pl?sid=10362
(By the way, SoylentNews is registered like a non-profit org (Delaware Public Benefit Org))
I know the article is relatively old. But I see that the gamergate movement is somewhat decreasing in popularity and I wonder if Twitter is censoring gamergate-related tweets?
(See attached PDF)
What the fuck is this shit?!?!?! (Acid Man believes this, look in here)
You fucking autistic mother fucker. What the mother fuck is going on in your mind?
>Acid Man actually believes this
If you are still using this board after Acid Man has a stickied post about going to war with John Kelly and some other twitter faggots, you are supporting a sick man's delusions.
This chart right here is fucking off the charts retarded. The fact that Acid Man wants to "put a boot to them" is just absurd and completely insane.
If this thread isn't immediately deleted and I'm banned, I'm sure it will get swamped with
>Damage control!
>shill!
No, you stupid mother fuckers, Acid Man has gone off the deep end and instead of defeating the arguments of people who disagree with him, he's trying to amass a personal army, using this board as a platform, to go after fucking nobodies, z-list e-celebs that most people haven't even heard of.
No one wants a war with you, Coleslaw, no one is trying to take you down. You are fucking delusional to the fucking max. You can read everything being said, openly, on the board you're so scared of you have word filtered here, /ggrrevolt/.
Please, go get your meds checked. If you're a viewer who visits this board, please read this and reconsider before posting here and keeping this lunatic in any sort of position of authority over other users.

Site Getting Fugged
http://8ch.net/operate/res/43260.html
>The front page delay is a consequence of the on-disk caching mechanism that's ingrained into the family of tinyboard, and most disk I/O is inaccessible due to the way I/O happens in the first place with this piece of shit software. So it may be a problem with 8chan but the problem isn't unique to 8chan, it's fundamentally a problem due to the tinyboard heritage. The software simply can't keep up with how many indexes, threads, catalogs, etc that it has to retemplate and then write to disk.
Unless we can do something ourselves I'm given the impression that the front page will suffer these delays for at least 3 weeks until the Infinity beta replaces tinyboard. It seems like your board is suffering the same delays many others are, who knows, it may be possible for us to alleviate this strain on tinyboard by collectively reducing the amount of pages we're using and thus the amount of active content tinyboard is shuffling around at a given time.
I reduced the pages on my board to 5 down from 15 to start. If we get as many of the top 50 boards to do the same that will reduce the total active indexed content by hundreds of threads and potentially tens of thousands of mostly redundant posts. I don't know if it'll work but I personally think it's worth a try in lieu of sitting around with our hands on our winger-dingers for 3 weeks eh?
Holocaustdenial and You
We support Mustafas #KillAllWhiteMen right for of free speech. We didn't agreed with that SJW lunatic points. Does #GamerGate feels like standing up for a old nazi granny from germany? In my opinion holocaust denial laws are anti-free speech laws, which also fan flames of anti-semitic conspiracy theories. I disagree completly with what she uses her free speech to, while in general I like free speech. Unfortuantly just looking up her theories can bring me into a prison. Although I am 100% sure I would be able to point out where her theory has flaws and why the holocaust happend. But thats not the point.
Anyhow what is your opinion?

Academics planning a talk about "de-escalating" GamerGate
CODE RED
Apparently some stupid western academic is considering instigating real D&C between the GamerGate moderates and "extremists" and is going deliver a talk about his proposed stategy. So far it's not even known what does he perceive "moderates" and "extremists" - it might be just more active people, or strongly anti-sjw ones, or anything else for that matter. What matters is that there are some stupid academics interested in "de-escalating" gamergate, and it doesn't appear as if they were considering "apologizing for lying" a valid option.
We have a situation
PAY ATTENTION TO THIS!
Revolt has managed to run Oliver Campbell off of Twitter and Twitch. John Kelly, AKA Bad Panda, has been leading a crusade against Oliver for months using everything from spambots to actual harassment.
That isn't even the important part.
THIS HAS ALL BEEN ORCHESTRATED.
The shilling, the purge, /pogostick/, the trolling on KiA, here, and /v/.
THIS WAS POSTED IN TONIGHTS /v/ THREAD
http://vocaroo.com/i/s1aIXA8eaFA5
What is this game?
A game of radicals working from a weak position to become the only relevant one.
>Create a storm of negativity for attention.
>Keep using that attention to perpetuate a storm of it.
>Become cancer to everything else until you finally kill what was there before.
The basic plot is to infiltrate, troll, and become so terrible that you drive everything else through raw negativity and this is being actively being done to #GamerGate.
>So after he got kicked out they removed the rule and um… made sure he never came back. And they lost all the views. And guess what? All the subscribers that they all gained, they all left them and they all went to the black knight. I watched that whole thing and thought, "well we can do that here."
>And look what's beginning.
>You see John Kelly mentioned a billion times.
>You've got Thidran being mentioned a billion times.
>You've got Variloh being mentioned a billion times.
>That's not a coincidence. That is thorough planning because I told them the idea and they're like "Yep, let's do that." And the idea is don't agree with the hugbox.
This is what has been going on for over three months.
If you want more verification of these people, the next part has more of it. Another five minutes. This time Thidran speaks in it.
The main focus of this one is them discussing the roles each party plays, such as being "good cop" and "bad cop."

BATTLE DAMAGE ASSESSMENT:
There are three things that have happened that I haven't seen before on Gawker's sites.
1: There has been no lull in advertising. Previously, the sites would go weeks almost devoid of ads before a new batch appeared.
2: Most of the new ads are not appearing on only one or two of Gawker's sub-sites like they did before, but rather seem to be spread across all or most of them at the same time.
3: Location-targeted ads appeared on the site in ad boxes, some for businesses in my own hometown, and again from a VPN node that I used for the second sweep. These were served by ads.beringmedia.com, a new aggregator not previously seen on Gawker.
In addition to the above, the number of scripts that Gawker's site network loads now is absolutely massive. It slowed a lighting-fast Linux computer to a halt and crashed the browser of my Windows 8 computer at work several times to get this information. With Noscript turned back on, the pages all load and appear normally. This is probably related to Gawker's "customer browsing habits" recordkeeping and sales of that information that we became aware of last year.
I am not an advertising expert, but this all suggests to me that Gawker has changed something in the way they negotiate their ad contracts, and are now aggressively pushing advertisers to do business with them - possibly with higher "bundle" rates for advertising across multiple sites in the Gawker network. The money crunch they're under from the impending Hogan lawsuit and $20,000,000 they've already lost to Disrespectful Nod is doubtlessly a motivating factor in them aggressively pursuing new ad income. Twenty Million Dollarydoos can buy a lot of crooked lawyers, after all.
Regardless,ODN has again born fruit, with several formerly prominent advertisers, Discover Card especially, now absent from Gawker's network.
The boss has entered a new form, and he's got HP regeneration this time. You know what to do.

Street Fighter 5 gets censored
As of the latest PS4 beta for Street Fighter 5 on November 6th, players have noticed subtle but nonetheless blatant censorship in the latest build of the game, mainly centered around Cammy and Rainbow Mika.
The censorship isn't even a costume change or a model swap but is simply done through the changing of camera angles in certain animations, which makes it more subtly insidous. Pic related shows a before and after image of the camera angles used on Cammy's intro animation, with the censored version being the one below.
Rainbow Mika has had some changes to her super attack as well. Whereas previously the camera zoomed in on Mika's ass as she slapped it and pointed at the opponent, in the latest build, it zooms in on her face instead, and her ass goes completely out of frame (although she slaps it anyways).
Compare: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuVsrCl89Ns#t=56s
with
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0uvMjJBHc0&feature=youtu.be&t=1m29s
With this, Capcom has shown that it is willing to throw its fans under a bus to appease the whining of feminist interest groups in the west who don't even play their games. If you've preordered this shit and hate censorship like I do, I advise you to seek a refund.
Reminder of where we started and why we are here
All of the following are counterproductive and damage ourselves ONLY:
No objectives, no goals, no demands, no philosophies, no lists.
- It screws up the framing of the issue by forcing us to focus on specific issues.
- The corrupt journos will adhere to the letter of the list and not the spirit. They will find a way to weasel around them.
- The second nobody is looking, they'll go back to being dishonest.
- This idea was put forth by a well-meaning PR person, not someone experienced in consumer activity. PR is the journo's game. Not ours.
- It divides us into the goals we each specifically want and we don't all want the same things. What appeases you will not appease another etc.
- Demands are things that terrorists make. We are a consumer revolt. We are not violent. We are not underhanded. We are not a political movement.
- Philosophies are for philosophers, not consumer revolts. We don't need philosophy to obtain the moral high ground, the opposition has already given it to us. We have no benefit in philosophies.
- Goals are for games, not a consumer revolt.
- Objectives are for military operations, not a consumer revolt.
- Lists are for nerds.
- It is true that it may increase our numbers (in an absolute sense, but we're still divided over the goals) because people have specific things to champion. However, this will bring us fence-sitters and those of weak will and not people that will do the work of writing emails and investigation of corruption. If they aren't invested on the merits, they aren't invested and thus are not helpful.
- We do not need clear end points. If people are discouraged by a perceived lack of progress, take a break. This is an extended and long-term approach and you must take breaks. If you need specific goals for yourself, participate 2 or 3 days a week. Phrase it in those terms. Creating goals is not necessary.
- It does not help people get into this. What does help people get into this is a more coherent and concise set of facts that they can evaluate and come to their own conclusions.
- Numbers are not an argument. Facts create numbers. Numbers don't necessarily create facts.
- Phrasing these goals incorrectly will put them as lines in the sand. We cannot change them once they're satisfied. We cannot move goalposts like they do.
No narrative changing.
- As we are a consumer revolt and not a political movement, we do not need a narrative.
- Narratives are for PR. PR is the journo's game. Not ours.
- We let the opposition change the narrative for themselves as they've done time and again for the last month.
- We will go as far politically as we must (as we've been forced to do so far), but have no inherent desire to do so.
- If a person is energized by narrative, they are in the wrong place. Narratives change and we would lose them when it changes anyway. Additionally, it's unlikely that people that aren't participating on the merits will do the requisite work involved.
- We are about facts, logic, and reason. A narrative is a way of spinning these. We have no spin. Only truth.
- We are actually inclusive and this has been demonstrated already. There is no need to push this or any message.
No leaders.
- This is a 100% shill idea put forward by the opposition to make it easy to play the identity game. This is their bread and butter and they will co-opt or ruin anything that they can get their hands on.
- We've lasted for a month and counting with no real dictators. We should continue this trend.
- There are currently no weak points to attack.
- As attacks against individuals intensify (people have lost jobs, been sent mafia-esque messages in the mail, and have been severely harassed for being involved), it's clear that giving them heads that are more important than others is a bad idea.
- Even discussing who you would pick implies some kind of extra importance. We do not want this. We're all in this together.

Gamergate
Sargon was right about the hashtag you know, it has pretty much run it's course.
Seems people talk more about the hashtag and the people using it than they do the core ideas behind it.
Time to go more ideas than hashtag. The ideas need to be the focus, not the name "Gamergate".
Brianna's profile pic
okay so
I haven't check out brianna wu's twitter account for a while and this is her profile?
What the fuck am I looking at.
Can anyone try to make up what is this?
Need Information about Wikipedia
Fellow faggots,
I need all information, files, data, hints, clues, pics you have on wikipedia and gamergate. I know this lazy but please post and tell me everything you have. This is really, really important and I got a dig already and want to be sure that I am seeing more connection then there are. Please fellow anons, drop all you have.
A anon in need for help…
Why MSM went antigamer
So a friend who works in the IT section of a medium-sized newspaper that's soon to become online-only told me about a meeting they just had which shed some light on what might be behind this unanimously bad press we had and continue to have.
The meeting was like this: they had this consultant over, apparently a bigshot who had a story of coaching other media companies. After having to endure a barrage of faggotry my friend said was of epic proportions this journohack finally got down to business
>make.controversy.happen!
He said the powerpoint in the back changed from a bunch of stock photo motivational crap to cold hard numbers and graph showing results from Adwords and other advertising networks.
Long story short: controversy pulls even more money than the usual clickbait listicles like "10 ways to lick assholes".
BUT it can't be just any controversy, it has to be LOCAL, the guy say that people for example don't want to read any shit about the middle east, ad numbers show that and there's a study that corroborates it (TLDR: ME news are depressing).
Local controversy, bullshit that appeals to rich self-centered people who only care about minor shit happening around them.
Now, while the consultant didn't mention Gamergate specifically my friend says he did mention "cases of sexism", then gave a long list of cases before looking at my friend (the only IT guy in the room) and casually saying "you know like in tech and such".
Bingo
MSM simply doesn't cares about quality anymore because they don't care about reader loyalty either, they want surges of millions of visitors that bring pageviews and money, not 100 steady subscribers that barely pay the bills. Besides low quality content = low quality writers which work for pennies, so they get to fire all the pro-tier journos that actually do their job.
Just look at gawker, those fags have been doing this since 2002 or so, and they are still in business unlike a lot of old school respectable news companies.
After all good journalism simply doesn't PAYS anymore
FEMFREQ IS FUCKED
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>My Internet Crimes Against Children contact got back to me this morning, a week later, mind, to let me know all documentation I had sent him had been reviewed by his team and they were going to be reaching out to his registering body about multiple Megan's Law violations by not reporting his social media and other online presences to the Sex Offense Registry in his state. That'll be one or two felonies that'll, at the very least, net a few more years probation.

Shilling for FIRE
You glorious bastards! How much money have you set a monthly recurring donation to the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, I just set up a $25 monthly donation, roughly the cost of a extra large pizza with cheese sticks. for this I get to see additional law suits against schools that decide to buckle to the whiny masses. It's buying salt in bulk and you can too by going to https://www.thefire.org/donate/ and giving them your sweet sweet shekels. All the cool kids are doing it Anon, you want to be a cool kid right? oh, and it's tax deductible too!
Don't know what they are about? seriously? Ok, drop the donate part off of that url and look at the slickly animated html5 slide show. Give them your money so that the fire rises!
ENOUGH!
Guys, calm the fuck down over Bhara Mustafa or whatever the fuck her name is. Most people see this incident and are revolted by her ingratitude to those who helped her. Just look at the comments of the Vice article, and those are Vice readers. This is a major redpill, couldn't have gone better. It confirms what a disgusting person she is, SJWs are further exposed as vile, demonstrates the structural/institutionalized/systematic/whatever privilege that people like her have, demonstrates we're principled and aren't about using principles for mere convenience, and we can use this in debate.
Chill the fuck out. I'm starting to think it's ghazi shills going full d&c with our /pol/ allies.
Mary Sue: How dare you criticize Episode 7/our new SJW focused Star Wars?
Mary Sue has jumped on the "How dare fans criticize our attempt to rape the Star Wars franchise! They're the Empire! Evil! Evil! Evil! Did I mention the Empire is evil and you are scum if you prefer them to the Rebels?" bullshit.
I swear, I'd take Karen Traviss back in a heartbeat, over the SJW thugs currently shitting up the franchise. At least she kept her bullshit isolated to the Mandalorians.
A problem in the backyard
Alright, I have never given a fuck about Fallout. But I hate seeing something like this happen to any fanbase in general, and particularly when it's because someone with a shred of power wants to push a narrative.
Currently on /v/ the board owner is actively assisting in people trying to spoil the ending of Fallout 4. Which I wouldn't give a shit about except there's a sticky up and the owner posted these screen shots as justification.
The board owner of /v/ has decided to help 'retaliate' based on some random asshole that people might try to 'astroturf' a game by discussing things that are inside of the game. Basically going full feminist pile on mob under pretty much the exact same evidentiary scrutiny False Rape Allegation cases entail. You can find him talking about it quite proudly over on a sticky on /v/ right now.
I just thought it would make for an interesting discussion about something happening on the very same board dedicated to gg. Or at least give you a heads up on what people are going to be using as ammo to justify censorship and filtering in game media for the next few months.
Probably shouldn't even bother. I'm just going to be dismissed for being a viral marketer faster than a CIS male at a feminist college.

Op Take Back The Truth
The UN is pushing the false narrative of violence against women with a new hashtag campaign on FRI OCT 9:
#TAKEBACKTHETECH
You know what to do.
TAKE BACK THE TRUTH
1) Take over the tag on Fri Oct 9.
2) Red-pill the masses about the false Broadband Commission report, the hypocrisy of inviting known frauds and liars to help push the narrative, the ulterior motives and dishonest narrative-pushing from the people at the UN and their backers, and all the erroneous / nonexistent information they are basing this on.
3) Harvest salt.
4) Profit.

MINI-OP: STEAM REFUND CIBELE
Nina Freeman has finally launched a real-money game on Steam after her last two F2P abortions. While not a primary LW, she is known to suck up to Brianna Wu, Katherine Cross and gets shilled by them regularly.
Why tie up my funds in a shitty indie game I don't care about? Who?
Nina Freeman(@hentaiphd) has been lowering the quality of Steam and PC Gaming as a whole for a long time. how do you Do It? is a non-game of literally slamming barbie dolls together with less physics than a flash game, and Freshman Year is a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure with no Choosing or Adventure, where you go to a club and get groped by a dude after getting wasted and feel bad about yourself. ALL three of Freeman's games are "autobiographical," meaning she can't write for shit, has no ideas, and has been focused on or actually taking dick non-stop since age 10. She also speaks publicly on game design and feminine issues at functions like GDC occasionally as if she were qualified to, and is a writer for Fullbright for the upcoming Gone Home 'sequel' called Tacoma. She also spoke out very vocally against Steam Refunds in a number of feminist news outlets when they premiered, complaining that the policies would hurt indies that specialized in 'vignette' games, i.e. anything you can click through in under 5 minutes, despite not having any cash games on Steam at the time. She was clearly planning for the future.
Her game Cibele is currently $7.64 on Steam and on sale for the first day for 15%. If you haven't abused the Steam Refund policy in the past, please consider buying, running the title screen for 5 minutes, and Steam Refunding it.
>Cibele
http://store.steampowered.com/app/408120/
>how do you Do It?
http://store.steampowered.com/app/353360/
>Freshman Year
http://store.steampowered.com/app/364450/
So what does this actually accomplish?
Refunding a game on Steam is a small dose of chemo for the industry that 'vignette' indieshit like Freeman desperately needs. It's also a dry-run for the inevitable Revolution 60 Steam launch, where we can see what kind of impact we have as an organized operation again. Also, there's no happenings going on right now.
HOLY SHIT!!!!! GOOGLE IDEAS CONNECTED TO FOREIGN POLICING BODY
On Wednesday, Attorney General Loretta Lynch announced at the United Nations that her office would be working in several American cities to form what she called the Strong Cities Network (SCN), a law enforcement initiative that would encompass the globe.
This amounts to nothing less than the overriding of American laws, up to and including the United States Constitution, in favor of United Nations laws that would henceforth be implemented in the United States itself – without any consultation of Congress at all.
This is the company that will be running the Strong Cities Network:

"The Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD) is an independent ‘think and do tank’ working with leaders in government, business, civil society and academia to develop cross-border responses to the major geo-strategic, social and security challenges of our time.
Combining research and policy advisory work, with innovative delivery programmes, specialised task forces, cross-sector partnerships and networks, ISD works to counter global extremism, bridge inter-communal divides and enhance Europe’s capacity to act effectively in the global arena."
>By offering a positive alternative to extremist material and propaganda increasingly available online, Extreme Dialogue will provide tools for teachers, youth and community workers, helping them to promote active discussions and develop critical thinking skills among young people.
Scroll down to see the PDF for 2013:
http://www.strategicdialogue.org/ISD_Newsletter_Winter_12-13_FINAL.pdf
from the PDF:
"In November 2012, ISD and Google Ideas led the first working group of an EU
wide network of practitioners and experts in combating extremism. The
working group, the Radicalisation Awareness Network (RAN), was
commissioned by the Directorate General for Home Affairs of the European
Commission. The session explored how the internet and social media may
contribute to the fight against violent extremism. The group discussed ways of
moving beyond current law-enforcement approaches and explored ‘positive’
civil-society responses to countering the threat posed by extremist discourses
online."
TL;DR
So, Google Ideas, who helps people like Zoe Quinn, Anita Sarkeesian, Harper etc.. is connected with a foreign policing body that will inhabit US sovereign territory and will have jurisdiction within major cities… a foreign policing body that somehow focuses on "Right Wing Extremism"… which is connected to Google Ideas directly.. and Zoe Quinn and her friends are running CrashOverrideNW… who is connected to Anita… who JUST SPOKE TO THE FUCKING UNITED NATIONS ABOUT COUNTERING ONLINE VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN
THIS IS IT
THIS IS IT
THIS IS _REALLY_ HAPPENING
So now both Google and the U.N are coming after GG
So how are you going to fight GamerGate? SJWs are now infiltrating and influencing the fucking United Nations and Google for christ sake.
Just look at this: https://twitter.com/Jasperge107/status/647323937362321408
Just dropped in to say
Love the board. You are doing some amazing things here, and honestly they got me a little excited. Please keep up the struggle and keep those tweets going.
How does it feel to be a tool of reactionaries?
Gamergate wants to do a "consumer revolt", not revolt against the actual system that creates these types of problems in the first place. It's obsessing over peripheral instead of the whole.

F.A.Q.
Why does this board exist?
/gamergatehq/ is the main public hub for #GamerGate on 8chan, replacing the destroyed /gamergate/ board. Established by #GG veterans exiled from 4chan in September of 2014, it exists alongside our other sites to serve as a primary discussion, planning, and coordination hub for #GamerGate and #NotYourShield and related activities.
Who runs this place?
I'm a namefag from /v/, and the person responsible for updating the advertiser lists used for Operation Disrespectful Nod I also wrote the Archive Downloader script used by /v/'s archivefags. I've been with #GG since August 30th of last year.
Why should we trust you, you fucking faggot?
Because I don't have an ego. I'm just a faggot on an imageboard. I don't Skype, I don't IRC, I don't own a website, I don't get in shitflinging matches, and I don't get butthurt over dumb shit. I don't want to be a leader and I don't want to be sucked up to. I'm a moralefag and a Cleric who tries to make himself useful. #GG collectively is what I care about. I'm a fucking twig, same as the rest of you. Only together do we form a mighty faggot. I also lurk obsessively and post daily, so I can always be reached through 8chan itself. No "IRC cabals" or secret meetings. I also keep board and staff decisions public, and not locked behind closed doors like most boards.
Who are the mods?
Oldfag /v/eterans here from the beginning, and explicitly unrelated to any e-celebs or current board staff anywhere else. Its a clean slate, where the only loyalty is to #GG and the board's users.
What are the rules?
Check'em. https://8ch.net/gamergatehq/rules.html
All reasonable requests for rule changes will be listened to and considered, though not always implemented.
Will you go full retard and screw us over like the last board owner did?
Absolutely not. And just in case, there is a contingency plan where the 8chan site administrator has my permission to seize the board and take care of it in my stead if I am somehow driven off the deep end.
Why come here over the other boards?
GGHQ is designed to have tighter moderation than the competitor boards. Fun is very much still allowed, but the staff are committed to keeping the place reasonably clean and tidy so #GG activities don't get flooded out by shills, trolls, e-celeb gossip and shitposting. Bans are given as warnings more than to kick any poster off the board, and users generally get the benefit of the doubt when situations are borderline against the rules. We try to keep it organized without being hardasses, so everyone can enjoy themselves and still work on #GamerGate.
If the community ever goes somewhere else, will you fight for part of the community and split us?
Nope. #GG lives or dies together. If the majority tells me to fuck off and goes to a different board, I'll lock this place in case of need or convert it to an archive and go post in the new hub right beside you. #GG first. All other bullshit a distant second.
I have a question, suggestion or a complaint, or I want to contest a mod decision.
Make your case right here in this thread. I check it several times a day, and any well-reasoned request will be listened to and considered. The staff knows we aren't perfect, and decisions are reversed or clarified fairly frequently.

Operation: Love on the Battlefield
Embed' is more related than you think. Read on first, or watch first, either way, I just realized something. Let me share it with you.
The number 1 cause of violence is sexual hunger. Predominately, virgins are the leading cause of death, as it turns out to be. Bill Maher has/can fill you in on what no-one's talking about in relation to mass shootings. This is actually quaint and stereotypical of us, being animals after all. That said, this also has shed light on how Social Justice is working against us before me. Let me tell you the one thing that's keeping these shitlords at our front gate. It's also why we fight back as well.
One side are beta virgins lead by sexual alphas and their beta fuck pet. The other is a movement shared by beta and alphas, virgins and sex symbols alike. Their side dreams of the success love and lust brings, like their leaders before them, as the many equal leaders amongst us dream of flesh and futures of opportunity.
So my final request, an operation that applies to those that haven't done so already such as myself.
Get.
Laid.
Somehow.
This IS possible, even if your Anthony Burch. Think about that for a moment. The feels and social context you need to accomplish this are those you must find on your own, as is the case with something this personal. You're objective is only simple if you are gifted. Many others like myself will find this mission harrowing at first. But the need for victory is more important than comfort and self-assurance. This is more important than this grassroots movement that #GamerGate started. Yes, even far more important than your slut waifu. If you want to share a selfie with that someone you bumped with, go for it more so if they agree to that. if you want to be a lady or gentleman about it, all the more privacy for you to do so.
Hell, we have meet-ups from time to time. Make use of those congregations if you can go to one. Make good use of your time. And this is the only real thing we have in common under any context with Social Justice. Change That. And you might come back strong enough to change journalism as a whole, let alone gaming. Allow your future to change. We are Gamers. We programmed ourselves to win under any condition, even if we are told God himself is our next rival, we'd only be caught saying 'Come at me, whore'.
Safety and success, sadly, is not garrenteed. You risk becoming the next fascist failure yourself like Social Justice, and Marx before them, or the next mass shooter. so game on, GamerGate, and class up, be you man, woman or radio. Find the heart that will pierce past the glass retraints and ask if love can bloom, even on the battlefield. Don't be a snake about this question, and actually answer yourself. Show yourself, and the enemy, the face of good as they've shown us the evil of our time. Just don't treat this like a final mission. There is more to life then this.
Good luck everyone. We could use that right now as much as we need each other.
All this time...
…I thought "ethics in video game journalism" was something tumblr came up with to mock and caricaturize you, but it turns out it's the legitimate official slogan. Holy keks
I'm a gamer who hates GG
First off I will state that I don't like the SJWS. They're the KKK of "feminism", which I quote because this shit isn't feminism. Anita Sarkeesian is their David Duke- a fraudster spouting off 20% facts and 80% hate. Hair-dyed angry people claiming to be transgendered for attention are an insult to the ones who go through years of therapy and life-changing to transition.
So why am I not a GG supporter if I so strongly dislike the anti-GG side?
First understand the type of gamer I am- I had the NES and Atari 7800 as a young kid and I've been a steady gamer since. But these days I emulate those old consoles because I'm too poor to collect games. I can't afford to have hundreds of NES cartridges or 12 systems hooked up to 5 TVs. I don't even have the space to store that. I don't even see the appeal in owning that. Emulators have more features than real hardware and the picture looks better, with an easy access import library and ROM hacks or translations.
Now then…. GG isn't about "gaming journalism" and to put that in perspective I don't even consider "gaming journalism" to be journalism. Walter Kronkite was real journalism. Nintendo Power, IGN, Kotaku, they are previews and reviews of games and nothing more, much of which is paid advertisement. That's all this has ever been. You've never really griped about it for the 30+ years it's been that way.
You didn't even complain too much when Jeff Gerstmann was fired! If this had started back then I'd say your movement had merit, but you didn't start it then, so you blew it. Most GG backers don't even now who Gerstmann is or what happened to him. Those of you who do know him as a guy who called your movement out as a hate group. The man who should be backing you on principle recognizes this as a total fraud.
But suddenly some nobody indie game dev comes along, She was in Suicide Girls and she's not very attractive in those photos. She dumped her whiny boyfriend. An actor from a failed TV series butted into the domestic dispute on twitter because he's a Christian who hates women. Suddenly everyone is crying over "gaming journalism". You harass Zoe over not being in the goddamned kitchen and suddenly she goes from being a nobody to being a celebrity. Same for Anita, went from a nobody to a celebrity because of YOU. Brianna Wu, same goddamned deal.
You should've kicked /pol/ to the curb instead of making them your allies. That was fuck-up #2(I remind you that #1 was not doing this when Gerstmann was fired- or earlier). White supremacists who don't play videogames don't care about this. To them, games are for kids and you are a degenerate for being an adult who plays with toys. They are not your allies, they just want women in the kitchen.
What are you even fighting? Gawker might be Stormfront for SJWs, but you're the actual Stormfront. You have NEVER given a damn about "gaming journalism" until some woman didn't fulfill a family role. Zoe isn't a decent person, she's not a valuable person, but what did she do? Dumped a whiner and caught Adam Baldwin's attention? And yet a major company getting a man fired because he said bad things about their game wasn't the catalyst.
It would please me just fine to see BOTH sides of this non-issue "movement" die off.
HOLY FUCK

Viacom silencing South Park?
Anyone know why Comedy Central is running a South Park repeat this week instead of a new episode?
They never do reruns unless something bad happen and an episode was rejected. Or there is a catastrophic situation like how a power outage hit and they couldn't get the third Goth Kids episode done on time and had to delay it.
More so, in a bit of alarming issue, the shows website is now selling "Stunning and Brave" and PC Principal merch, complete with "Check Your Privilege" slogan on it.
Did the PC thugs at Viacom (who have perverted MTV like they have) get to Matt and Trey?
/tg/ pushes back against SJWs
>/Tablegate/ #1 - We meet at an inn
Who's ready to do something about progressive ideas in Tabletop gaming and showing a push back against them?
Gamergate showed that the best way to get at a company is to weaken it's ties to advertisers and people working with it's brands. When you start a mass e-mail campaign, you can discourage people from working with them and change what ideas they will be willing to carry into their other media. So lets do that now. Do not expect to collapse any companies, no one has that sort of power, but do expect to make some people salty and cost them some money in the long run. Money talks, that's how we defend our hobby from authoritarian fuckwits.
I can't find the e-mail for their president, who is called Paul Meyer, but they have a lot of social media and a customer service e-mail for the overall company as well as their entertainment arm.

Here are your talking points.
>Marvel is pushing a political agenda, which you are including in your Legendary game.
>When fans were upset about Thor being made female they published the first issue showing inserting a dumb black man into the comic for female Thor to beat up while being passive aggressive about feminism. This shows no respect for their fans and as she is included in the Secret War expansion, you must conclude that lack of respect extends to Upper Deck as well.
>They have no respect for any of their characters with the new rebooting. People see the Avengers 2 and want to read Ironman or Thor and then they're suddenly women and nothing like their movie counterparts that people are invested in.
>Female Thor is in their Secret war (it's an AU set) of the Legendary deck building game. So you must assume they support marvel's progressive politics to include her and as such, assume they're unAmerican and also support the new Captain America being against defending America's borders and think any one who is against illegal immigration is a bigot.
Spread this to every /gg/ group you can and every where that will listen. Tablegate can become a thing, but we have to choose our targets carefully. Make it clear this is about respect for the players of your games and not about politics. The first issue of feminist Thor made it quite clear that Marvel has no respect for the player base, so they are the easiest target to complain about.

DC Comics to reject SJW starting in 2016
http://www.bleedingcool.com/2015/09/29/a-more-right-wing-dc-comics-for-2016/
Background: DC basically put all of their eggs in the SJW basket with DCYou this summer as far as revamp, which failed MISERABLY.
So DC is now in full on panic mode, as they moved to LA to be closer to their parent company and their parent company are shitting bricks at how badly the company is doing.
So they are going to relaunch some new books which will be SJW free. Swamp Thing, a non-SJW Teen Titans book with as many of the REAL Teen Titans as they can use (sadly Wally West is not usable), and a Superman book with the Post-Crisis Superman/Lois/their kid trapped in the New 52 Universe.
Not to mention the impending return of Frank Miller, who's sure to piss the fuck off SJW thugs when his Dark Knight III: Master Race drops next year

OP: #BadDub, e-mail Funimation about the Prison School dub (which has gamedropping) and their
Please read thoroughly before e-mailing.
Why:
If you haven't heard yet, there was gamedropping in an anime called Prison School, an anime that normally centers around fanservice, hyper-sexual shock comedy, etc.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEXurYaIHao
Here's the original line from the manga:
http://i.imgur.com/C1SjTK4.png
And from the subtitles:
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CPpiqL4UEAA6GRv.png:large
The lines from the dub definitively deviate a lot from the original work and the script writer outright inserted politics into the dub.
Funimation did answer to the initial outrage, but it was a non-answer. It's clear they are not going to do anything about it and the employees involved only got a slap on the wrist:
http://www.funimation.com/blog/2015/10/02/prison-school-feedback
Here are a few articles and videos about it:
https://archive.is/mXRAW (/r/anime discussing the Funimation blog post)
http://www.funimation.com/forum/showthread.php?8806-The-GamerGate-quip-in-Episode-7-isn-t-gonna-fly-too-well (Here's an especially good post from the Funimation forum about this http://i.imgur.com/r5HkArt.png )
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-r9H7im7k4g (Anime Overload - Gamer Gate in Prison School Dub: Thoughts and Discussion by Duderes)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWdbQTO0mhg (#GamerGate/Anime: @FUNimation goes #FullSJW by Raging Golden Eagle)
It's clear from the comments from the various articles and videos; the people are not happy.
The crux of the problem isn't quite the gamedropping, it's the fact that the line makes very little sense and the joke is obviously forced (along with the very already dated and stupid "Arthur Fonzarelli" reference). This was not a translation, or a localization, but a complete dialogue change for the purpose of a political potshot from the writer.
- This is exactly what we're against, the injection of politics where it doesn't belong
- Second, not properly taking care of this mess means it'll just happen again
- Third, I'd love to buy DVD/BD without having to check on the Internet who did what and who said what about it
Also, Funimation employees have been attacking concerned fans for over 4 days straight, acting in a shockingly unprofessional manner:
- Tyson Rinehart https://archive.is/SbkI9
- Jamie Marchi https://archive.is/c79On
- Stephen Hoff (An ADR Engineer that has worked on a lot of Funimation shows), who is not working on Prison School, but has been involved in a lot of their releases , has also been attacking fans over twitter: https://archive.is/LyrGp https://archive.is/ljE8l https://archive.is/iVB2B
Tyson stopped arguing with fans, but he's still retweeting angry concerned fans, there's no reasons to do this other than to publicly shame them and possibly send a mob of fans on them. Once again, this is shockingly unprofessional.
I also recommend people archive tweets here and there and include them with the e-mails. Not a lot of places would accept their employees trolling concerned fans for that long.
In short, the e-mailing goals are:
- Prevent script writers from injecting politics of any kind into their scripts where they don't belong. Also expressing our concern with dub scripts that don't respect the original material.
- Punish the employees involved for their grossly unprofessional behavior.
- Also, ultimately, get Funimation to remove the line
Contact information:
BTW, if you already e-mailed before Funimation addressed (or more like, didn't really address anything at all…) this with the blog PR post, it's worth e-mailing again.

Operation Re/b/ellion
DROP EVERYTHING, TAKE A MINUTE TO READ THIS!
8chan's board owner nugger (Hotwheels previously owned /b/) has laid down a set of rules for /b/, the random board. /b/ is suppose to be chan culture in its purest (and consequentially chaotic) form - anything goes while you are anonymous. Adding rules is entirely counter to this and such faggotry must be purged. If you want rules, create a new board instead of shitting up an existing one.
1. Tell the global mods what you think here. https://8ch.net/operate/res/35399.html
2.Vote whether you want rules or not through this poll here: http://poal.me/indmvs
3. Spread said poll to as many 8chan boards as possible. http://poal.me/indmvs
4. ==Keep this op contained to 8chan==
Shills are already in full force advocating for rules. Do you want to alert more of them? Stay within the bounds of 8chan.
8ch Under Heavy Shilling
There has been a ridiculous amount of shilling recently, here and on all the other boards. The things they say and their posting style are always identical, so I threw this together so they can be pointed out more quickly and summarily shut down in the future.
Best anti-GG quotes needed
I'm making *something entertaining* and I need the best, most humorous quotes said by anti-GG. Shit like "I kind of remind myself of being Batman." It's okay to paraphrase, doesn't need to be exact quotes. They don't have to be humorous themselves, but could be used in a humorous way. They can also be only slightly related to GG such as "You PC, bro?"

Gamergate boards
>all the retarded drama about gamergate boards on 8ch
They aren't even needed anymore since GG has slowed down and the issues invovled can be discussed on /v/ or /pol/ without the GG banner.
It's different on Reddit with KiA because they can't discuss those issues on their video game or politics boards since those subjects are banned.
I don't think Acidfags "purge" helped but it certainly wasn't the reason GG boards lost interest or else GGrevolt would have taken off. What really happened was a split of the users still interested in GG on 8chan between those two boards.
The Gamergate name itself is now mostly unneeded.
Gaben might be on our side...
For those who don't know, a patch was released on DotA 2 containing a file named "hl3.txt". Beyond the obvious, someone made the following prediction: What if Half-Life 3 was released this November? With no marketing whatsoever? Imagine:
>suddenly, Half-Life 3 released in November without any warning or marketing or intercession from "video game journalists"
>outsells everything in 2015, including Fallout 4
>also super good
>no pre-orders
>no first day buyers being unpaid beta testers
>no hype based on bullshit
>no day one DLC
>Gaben proves that game journalists are fucking useless to the industry
>makes billions while spending almost nothing on marketing
>other publishers follow suit
>game journalism dies off, Gamergate wins total victory
Gaben could very well be handing us victory on a silver platter.
So, here's to hoping. Picture unrelated because apparently I'm not allowed to post Gaben pics.

Origin of the SJW
Hey there vivian! Uncle /pol/ here. I know you are up in arms about the recent thing with those two feminists at the UN. Some have made the point that there are thousands of proposals given to the UN, but they are never done or are just ineffective. But, I don't think you grasp just how evil the UN is.
This is a document made by the UN showing their creation of the SJW movement and avocation for governmental corruption to further goals back in 2001.
http://unpan1.un.org/intradoc/groups/public/documents/ASPA/UNPAN000572.pdf

Or what happened to him in 2007. That fact alone is why this movement is white power anti-girl bullshit that real gamers don't support.
That's what happens when you ignore a major event, instead to start this crusade" because some former Suicide Girls model dumped her boyfriend. Then you got in bed with /pol/, who are all traitors to the American people.
I've been playing games since 1984. Your illegitimate movement can get rekt.

GamerGate is killing Star Citizen
Guys, looks like we are harassing another developer. :^)
How Start Citizen can continue to collect bucks if people says they will never deliver?
Hit piece on the Escapist:
And the answer from Star Citizen (don't stop at the first post, the complete answer is after):

It's all GamerGate's fault!
GAMERGATE !!!1!!
Looking for someone to edit the Patri Archie comic and make it about Star Citizen.
ANN COULTER AND TRUMP SOON
So this is happening.
Ann Coulter tweets GamerGate. Seems like she likes us.
Is our supreme leader, based Emperor and savior of America, next?
#GGinBerlin
So, meetings are happening all around, and I wonder: Some of you fine folks interrested in a meeting in Berlin?
Nothing planned yet, just checking if people are interrested, like, more than 2. :>
APC/IGF goes full lolcow
accuses GG of executing a planned, coordinated & organized cyber attack
Trans Game Gets Ignored
So why is it that when finally there is some trans representation in games, that it gets ignored by all the higher up SJWs? There's almost no articles about this game. It's a shame because it actually looks pretty good.
Breitbart picked up S4T's story
Don't you haters who tried to bury it yesterday feel stupid?
Who is Katherine Cross?
Leaders,
I have an important question. And I've noticed that nobody seems to be really addressing it or recognizing how important it is.
My question is this; Who is Katherine Cross?
We know two things, Katherine Cross is not a woman, but an transgendered male living as a woman and that Katherine Cross is not his name.
The credits say that he's Joshita's secretary, but I'm going to posit something a bit more interesting. He's not their secretary. He's their HANDLER. Cross is there to guide them and shape them. Cross is the one who got them on Colbert and to the UN.
I posit that Cross is very well connected and far more powerful than anyone realizes. Of course, hiding his origins behind a "deadname" (gee, I wonder why using those might be taboo) would be very convenient for someone with a past to hide.
So, tell me leaders; Who the fuck is Katherine Cross and what does he want?
Answering this question will be one of the most important things that GG can do.
Now watch the "muh pronouns!!!" derailers show up.
Celebrities you just know are anti-GG
>this man has done several songs about how women are abused
>known to not give a damn about videogames
>legally changed his name to a female name
>next album will probably have another pro-woman song, this one bashing GG
Stress
How do you guys get your mind off Gamergate?
Maybe I'm just super-autistic, but every time I get into the shower I spend 30 minutes in a mental fog, obsessing over it. Either thinking about an article, or a twitter exchange, and tearing my mind apart trying to figure out how can people be so deluded?
I'm now scared to death that my past involvement with GamerGate can be dug up and cause me employment problems since I work as a programmer. I've posted a thousands comments across various forums and article comment sections trying to tell people the truth and gave money to various GG charities, because it was the right thing to do. And I've managed to keep any social media accounts attached to my IRL identity separate. But every time some makes a sweeping declaration declaring me to be a monster, it scares me a little bit. Gamergate opponents operate at an absolute fever pitch and I can't get my mind onto any other topic.
How do you cope with the crippling anxiety? Of being blamed for mythological heinous acts that you had no part in?
A message to the board, and a reminder to BE the change.
Well we might be nearing some kind of record for weekend drama, and Id like to apologize for having my dumb ass at the center of it. The problem with being "doxed" is that denials mean little, and you dont want to confirm any parts that may be correct or not, so I cant say too much about any of it without giving these faggots fuel.
That said, many of you have been here, shitposting with me either since halfchan or since the board went up - and those of you who have remained despite other people losing interest have come to know me pretty well I think. We outlasted Ayyteam together, we cleaned the board up a good deal from the disaster that was May, and were still going. My standing promise has been that, whether GGHQ has ten thousand users or two hundred, my job is to be here for you guys and keep this place the way you want it, so you can work on #GamerGate activities in peace, together, and without outside interference.
There is no danger to this board from all this bullcrap.
I have exactly zero plans or inclination to burn out, quit, abandon this place, or burn it down in a huff like our previous faggot BOs did. Moderation will not be changing either, except by the customary method of user demand. I queued up as a Tank when I opted to make this board, and when you queue as a tank you take the hits for the party.
The one thing I can say has pissed me off about this kikery is this: If you take me out of the equation and just look at the job slot, and if you assume all the info is correct, then these Revolt numbnuts would have just handed over the personal information of a #GG hub owner over to aGG on a silver platter.
Draw your own conclusions about them from that.
Regardless, when times are slow, I find the best thing to do:
IS TO PICK YOUR OWN PERSONAL GG PROJECT AND CONTRIBUTE TO IT!
So here is the most recent list of Gawker advertisers, compiled for the /v/ thread last night. We still need contact information and an update made to GitGud, but we have put quite a hurting on Gawker since last time. Even most of their big adverts like American Express are only there because of Google Adsense now. Apart from two banner ads and a couple native ads, all of Gawker is now on rotating-ad life support. :3

THINGS OF NOTE!
Gawker is officially on Adsense and Taboola life support. Even most of their major backers like American Express are only present on Google Adsense ads now. Discover Card is also still gone, which is a major win for us.
The main targets still left are the ones who have stuck with them from the start, most notably Amazon. Lexus and smugglersbounty are running traditional banner ads, and all the native ad targets are still viable for ODN. They have way fewer replacement advertisers than last time, so were definitely having an effect on their marketability. The Hogan lawsuit certainly cant be helping them either.
Lets dig Gawkers grave another foot deeper!
Mod edit: Important posts (backups available for next thread)
is Encyclopedia Dramatica now run by a bunch of Reddit shits?
https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Milo_Yiannopoulos
Given how totally 4chan is Reddit owned now, you gotta wonder by the language of the above article how much ED has been compromised by the cancer.
I've always known Milo is just playing the game, but contra the Reddit ops, throwing his weight behind Gamergate was actually a very smart move, and not because it brought him shekels.
Doxing on this board?
Hey all. I'm usually active on the KiA reddit boards, but someone from Twitter messaged me saying that a doxing of Randi Harpers supports was going on here. I was hoping we could clear this up since this is not what GG is about and find out if this is even related to GG at all. Some parts are blacked out, just trying to find out if anyone has seen this anywhere, and if it has, if it was dealt with already.
The /ints/ Problem: A Final Solution
It is becoming abundantly clear that the /ints/ board can and will do whatever it takes to derail our efforts. We cannot co-exist any longer. The slander and libel they've leveled against our leader is the last straw.
I strongly suggest that moderation is redoubled - permaban anyone who spreads lies, questions our efforts/leadership, or shills for alternative boards. Furthermore, I suggest a new #Op focused solely on destroying /ints/ or at the very least frustrating their efforts.
Good luck and god speed.
I need your word on this
I heard you were a sissy faggot, Acidwoman
http://8ch.net/ggrevolt/res/53517.html
Can you confirm or deny? Lots of people are talking about it all over 8chan and I'd like to hear your opinion on it
LW Misses Court Date, May Lose Her Right to Speak at Trial
Looks like ham hands' crack legal team is making all the right moves:
http://matthewhopkinsnews.com/?p=2418
>The penalty is simple – if the court agrees to hear Gjoni’s appeal Quinn will be required to sit in silence and say nothing unless it gives her permission to extend time. Given the nature of Gjoni’s complaints and the way he was treated in the lower court, the Witchfinder finds this deliciously ironic.
GG is dying
Why don't you faggots give up, admit your movement is cancer, and realize that you're wasting your time over Gamez Journolizum!
Grow up.
Milo banned from free speech/censorship debate at Manchester Uni
http://mancunion.com/2015/10/07/update-yiannopoulos-also-banned-from-censorship-event/
Crosspostan from /pol/
>After barring Julie Bindel from a debate on censorship planned for mid-October, the Students’ Union have now told Milo Yiannopoulos that he is also prohibited from attending an event hosted by the University of Manchester Free Speech and Secular Society
> “We have been made aware of various comments lambasting rape survivors and trans* people, and as such we are concerned for the safety of our students on the topic of this event. He is a rape apologist and has repeatedly used derogatory and debasing ableist language when describing members of the trans* community.
He made comments, thus he's dangerous. They justified the decision because his actions goes contrary to their Safe Space Policy (I'm not making this up).
Milo on Joe Rogan
For anyone who missed it.

The true story of Gamergate
This includes attacks on both sides of the argument, but also a lot of facts.
"Gaming journalism" was never anything but a paid advertisement. Reviews have always been bought off with free copies or promises of money. Every single gaming mad in the 80s, even the precious Nintendo Power, was like this.No one ever cared.
In 2007, Jeff Gerstmann wrote a negative review of the game Kane & Lynch. Eidos had paid big bucks to Gamespot to advertise the game. Gerstmann was fired. The end result? Some anger for a couple of months that eventually died off and nothing really changed. Gamers didn't care.
Then comes Zoe Quinn, a nobody indie game dev who dumped her boyfriend and got a new one. The beta male cried on twitter until Adam Baldwin, a shithead right-wing asshole who acted in a failed TV show no one watched, butted the hell into a personal domestic thing, because he hates women. Then bigots from /pol/ got involved, many of which have never played a game other than "Ethnic Cleansing: The Game".
Suddenly we have idiots who don't play games pretending that gaming journalism is corrupt. Well of course it fucking IS, but suddenly a woman steps out of the kitchen and it becomes an issue. None of the idiots will acknowledge that it'd been corrupt since the 80s. None of them know who Jeff Gerstmann is.
Real gamers avoided this crap "movement" and Jeff Gerstmann also called it out. He is a victim of actual corrupt gaming journalism and he knows that GG is little more than the KKK doing their thing because some old book says a sky man said stuff.
Enter Anita Sarkeesian. Professional fraudster and liar who made a video that was 25% facts and 75% horsehit, and weaseled people out of big bucks to make more videos she never made- kind of the way Don't Hug Me I'm Scared suckered idiots out of lots of cash and never delivered. Anita is David Duke for feminists.
Did I say feminists? Not really. Real feminists are the ones who earned women's suffrage. Anita is a feminazi, screaming shit so hate-filled and anti-male that it sounds like she took passages from Mein Kampf and replaced "Jews" with "men".
She took advantage of all the /pol/ shits and went from obscure nobody to speaking at the UN- and giving her an audience would be no better than letting David Duke speak. Zoe also went from being a nobody to being a big deal because /pol/ is never right and harassed her too much.
Gawker media, which is Stormfront for SJWs, has played this like a fiddle and have gained sympathy. If the bigots had stayed out of a breakup, then Anita, Gawker and the whole SJW movement would have not gained power.
Game companies have largely said "fuck off" to the movement. Running With Scissors has buddied up with Milo Yoannwhateverthefuckhisnameis, a comedian as unfunny as Bill Hicks, and largely sided with the bigots. I used to respect Vince Desi, I've even talked to him on the phone a few times, and he helped me with some personal issues a few years back…. but Vince, up yours. Up yours, and up your friends' for taking one side and not attacking both. Up yours for siding with a bigot. I'm not sorry I pirated Paradise Lost(like it doesn't crash more than a car test dummy), but I am sorry I ever respected you. I have to suspect that most of the RWS staff now are leaning towards bigotry and I will never buy their games again(because they make so many, amirite? 3 games + 2 add-ons since the 90s). I will never associate with Vince on a personal level again. He's no better than Anita.
Both sides of this movement are utter shit. Both sides need to choke. I'm a gamer, I have been since 1984, and I say that GG has no merit. It would have merit if it meant what it claims it stood for, but it doesn't. It never did and never will because it deliberately ignores facts. It is anti-woman and filled with white supremacists. The anti-GG side is little more than another group of fascists spitting hate.
End of story.
UN: Video Games turns children into killing zombies
It's official folks, it's under the chapter "Conclusions and principles for further action" of this UN's commission report:
http://www.broadbandcommission.org/Documents/reports/bb-wg-gender-report2015.pdf
Page 48 of the document.
> There is widespread representation of VAWG in mainstream culture, including in contemporary and popular music, movies, the gaming industry and the general portrayal of women in popular media. Recent research on how violent video games are turning children, mostly boys, into ‘killing zombies’ are also a part of mainstreaming violence. And while the presentation and analysis of this research is beyond the scope of this paper119, the links to the core roots of the problem are very much in evidence and cannot be overlooked.
Source used by the UN for the quoted above:
> PROGRAMMED TO KILL - Video Games, Drugs, and The ‘New Violence’ https://archive.is/AONtG
From which:
> The very same video games which were originally designed to train soldiers to kill, are those being mass marketed today—to children! This is the shocking fact documented by Lt. Colonel David Grossman, an Army psychologist who has specialized in the training of troops for combat.
Which was already debunked as shown by our friends over at KiA
