"If you want to give it a try yourself, you need to be an Xbox Live Gold subscriber, be 18 or older, and meet undefined gamerscore requirements and tenure as a Gold-level subscriber."
Interesting.. but i'd rather they censored out all those xXn0sc0p3z1337pwnzXoxx names than one about Herpes to be honest.
Yes... yes... this mindless violence pleases me.
I know its not... but that seriously looks like Yugi Moto..
I'm not sure it qualified as a wonder.
"Anita should shut the fuck up and focus on what she's good at: namely. PR."
You can, you just have to to use well-reason factual arguments rather than hyperbole, anecdotes and threats of rape and death.
It's not hard.
Example of people doing it wrong: When she says there was 13 separate mario games in which Peach is captured and you have to rescue her, and they turn around and say "Nu-huh! …
First paragraph is strawman since disabling comments on YouTube hardly halts the "free expression of criticism," which can happen on countless other websites and venues.
Oh my god, thank you! This really shouldn't be that hard. I don't agree with all the points in the video, and I think she may have been a little hard on some of the games. I do completely understand her idea of damseling coming to the point of being a 'dead horse' trope, meaning, something so overused that even doing…
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
I can't post your address and threats to rape you on your video comments!
If there's anyone who has a reason to disable comments and ratings on the videos it's this woman. You aren't going to be prevented from posting actual discussion on her forum.
(PS you're also free to discuss those videos anywhere…
"The thing is, she made the topics way before she did the research. Ideally, anything that resembles a negative trope is evidence." You do know that you usually make a hypothesis BEFORE you gather evidence, since you have to know what kind of evidence you're looking for? There is nothing wrong with that as long as…
Yeah, "males don't have to be civil between themselves", way to go there.You have just made it so much easier for everyone to understand why entitled males make flash games of beating Sarkessian's face into a bloody pulp. Because male? Sheesh, I'm male and I find that below any definition of "manly" I could ever…
No, you wouldn't. If Anita were a male you would still be expected to criticize her with respect and civility. I am not sure where you get this chest-thumping idea that men are assholes and "get" to behave like assholes. That may be how you perceive society and gender, but I assure you, that is not a perspective that…
Conversations don't have to stick to the same format or site though. Just like in movie or academic criticism, someone can post a response video or article going one by one. I don't blame her for shutting down upvote/downvotes and comments considering what they were being used for before hand. This doesn't stop…
Speaking of straw man arguments.
Nah. The worst thing around this hoo-haa was when people leaked her personal info and threatened her with rape and murder. The second worst thing is that it's the 21st century and the industry still hasn't come close to fixing its problems. Way down the list is the risk to your image, and as other people have said…
I think the worst thing was probably the rape and death threats, but we all have are opinions.
Play that funky white male power victim card. I love it!
the trouble is the calm voices that do point out her flaws and shortcomings (usually in regard to balance and scope) often get lumped in with or passed over amongst the reactionary, misogynistic, trolling rants of the illiterate hoi polloi.
