I was going to give a reasoned response. I changed my mind. Fuck off dude. Seriously. Don’t go around belittling how other people feel because they are worried about their kids. It makes you look like an asshole.

This exact thing happened with Destiny and Jason. Jason reports something, subreddit thinks he’s lying, he ends up being right. It’s hilarious

Go to work and school and jokingly tell everyone that “you’re going to kill them and their family” and see how many people care about intent or credibility. You can’t do this in your day to day life but apparently a keyboard means you’re just joking.

I worked for a game studio for an online game. 3 guys that got banned had showed up to our studio, in trench coats. They started asking where the GM offices were, saying they got banned and needed to talk to GM so-and-so. Security for the building showed up and they ran. We never saw a gun, but does it matter? Another…

I particularly liked the people spinning some sort of weird conspiracy theory that Kotaku reporting on the delay somehow caused the delay to happen, or made it worse, or something.

What I want to know is:

Every single threat should be taken seriously. When you don’t take them all seriously; the one that is serious slips through.

Does it really matter? Credible or not I think it helps to publicize this sort of stuff — both to expose this ugliness and to push sites like Twitter to improve their harassment policies.

I hadn’t realized this, but apparently No Man’s Sky fans are... uh... a passionate bunch. For the past two days their subreddit has been going absolutely insane, speculating constantly and spewing all sorts of bile toward me/Kotaku for various reasons as they continued digging up reasons to say I was wrong about the…

Oh it’s VERY in-depth huehuehuehue

I couldn’t have found a more perfect example of what Tabata was talking about if I had TRIED. Well done.

Some neighbors in the area, Local Memphis writes, are wondering why the young girl was out so late at night with her mother

So many are so quick to shrug this off as “it’s a Catholic school, they get to tell you how to dress”. Nobody’s saying it was illegal or threatening court action here. They’re saying it was a shitty thing to do and calling out the school over it. The school gets to make the rules, and people get to tell them they’re…

Have you READ Kotaku?

I understand where you are coming from. You want the unaltered work to be available. Which is why I think it is a-okay to both complain and/or vote with your money to help shed a light on this. However, I also think that in arguments over this that the meaning of words can be important. I also think that the…

The nerve of Kotaku, reporting video game news just because they are a website that exists to report video game news.

If you’ve somehow navigated the gaming landscape without ever learning what Gamergate is, A) I’m super-jealous and B) I recommend you never try to find out.

Riiiiiight, because developers having to weigh in on smearing campaigns around the reviewers of their games is usually a sign of things dying down. Literally no one knew about this before this article! Silly Kotaku, always whipping up “controversies” out of thin air.

Kotaku staff are gamergate plants confirmed.

That raised fist has only two possible meanings and both of them have either overt political meanings associated with an anti-government philosophy or is an expression related to a current social movement with clear partisan associations in some ways or implicitly are about disruption.
