Hey does anyone have that shitty webcomic where the MC is a girl who's encouraged to join an MMO by some feminist and it's super terrible and the girl becomes BFFs with a chinese gold farmer and they make unions a thing in China?

Someone posted it in the GG board many moons ago but I never saved it. I need it for reasons.

I don't suppose it was this gay ass piece of shit.

Tis not, my friend, though I appreciate the effort.

I guess for some more information: The MC and the feminist also get payed real monies (iirc) for killing gold farmers in the game. And your avatar stays visible in the game (though asleep) when you log out if I remember right. And she was only like level 6 at the end. And she dyed her hair near the end to show what a strong independent womyn she was.

Also the chinese gold farmers were cute little white gnome doll things. Which is a real shame since those designs were objectively the best thing in that comic.

Never heard of it. We always got tons and tons of recommendations when the blog was alive about this or that shitty webcomic that we should review or check out, and we never did, mostly because it's a lot of work.

Sounds like that graphic novel written by Cory Doctorow, In Real Life

Do they draw awesome anime tiddies? Are they entertaining in their badness?

If not, disregard.

This has been my basic rule for deciding which webcomics to give a fuck about since I was 13, a chubby nigga on the scene. 15 years ago when webcomics were still a relevant artform I was already rejecting pap shit like Megatokyo, and where were you? You're a latecomer to this party train, boyo!

If you submit generic shit, we'll be here all day. Do you know how many amateurs have designs on being considered a serious "artist" while they publish the very basic banalaties that define a generation? Get real, pal! If you're not wiling to wade through the field of fetid watery shit to find the solid logs, don't get to posting.

Isn't that the cuck from boingboing who was anti GG and is a huge femicuck? :(

Well unfortunately now I'm going to download this and see if I can find out.

Polite sage.

From what I recall the story quality goes back and forth. I alternated between "this is god awful preachy SJW bullshit" and "this is sweet" a lot.

I suppose the core issues are that, ultimately, this is all concerning a fucking video game rather than a nike sweat shop or something truly horrible, the other girl is portrayed as a evil uncaring racist for having fun interfering with foreign companies who are legitimately ruining the game while not considering the poor oppressed brown people working there, and the ending feels tacked on and unrealistic in order to make the spoiled white girl living in a 1st world country not look like a naive little ignorant cunt who actually made things worse for the kid.

Also, the idea of a MMO where you could get hired to kill gold farmers is fucking awesome, and I'd love to see real games do that.

When stories introduce plots that involve a xenophobe attacking foreigners who are gaming the system or are otherwise criminals, 99% of the time it's the writer's way of blaming American imperialism and hegemony for all the other countries not being able to succeed or thrive. It's a fallacy, but it's a feelgood one that people can pat themselves on the backs for agreeing with: naked virtue signalling at its most base and obvious.

Which might almost have a point, except;

*American imperialism* was what saved mainland China from becoming a fucking vassal state of Japan.

The areas that historically had the most colonized by white people (Hong Kong, etc) also currently are the most free and successful areas of China.

He is not just some femicuck from boingboing, he was European Affairs Coordinator for the EFF, ie the number one organisation in the world that tries to defend internet from surveilance and censorship.

He also shills tor and pgp in his book, advocates piracy and does a lot of other useful things.

Sadly fighting for freedom in today's society means fighting against big corps, and fighting against corporations is often mistaken for fighting against CAPITALISM and fighting for the GLORIOUS COMMUNISM. (maybe some agents even encourage this mistake)

I just hope he has enough reason in his mind to put his freeze peach ideals before his socjus ideals.

But then again, when he got fed up with USA's surveilance state he moved to … fucking Britain, only country with more security cameras than citizens, so my hope is small and anemic.

>I just hope he has enough reason in his mind to put his freeze peach ideals before his socjus ideals.

You mean those two completely incompatible concepts? Those two ideas where the one must negate the other to exist, always have, always will, not even close, not even a shred of one could ever exist with the other?

For a lot of people freedom of speech is about fighting evil Google and evil NSA.

The thought that censorship can be built on a fundament of obviously virtuos quest of helping women and minorities doesn't even cross their mind.

Ignorance is how to doublethink, basically.
