To be frank, I'm not associated with GG, I only posted a few tweets using the tag. I'm just feel they have some valid points, and that those are ignored by the media.

First, this specific article is probably the "less bad" I've read from Kotaku or Gawker. There's some horrible one on Gawker that doesn't let any door open for the existence of a reasonable faction.

What makes you say I never been on the receiving end? My high school have been hell because of bullying.

Once again, sorry if it was misunderstood, I never claimed it doesn't happen.

Sadly, it is very deep-seated, and usually not from game devs. I've learned that marketing people are - often but not always - some of the most conservative people.

To be frank, it's not always because of your sex. That little assholes creating a mini-rebellion? I had one like that too. I have been lucky that he somewhat managed to hang himself alone and quickly.

Don't worry about being confrontational, as long as you stay logic and cool headed. I'm a guy who love arguing. I can even claim it's one of my personal issue I've been working on.

I'm concerned about three things, in no specific order;

Good people leaving will hurt, because having been paint as being guilty by association, discussion becomes harder. Also, at some point, bad people will follow the good one to whatever else new label/forum they would create, and the issue would begin all over.

Not at all. But another woman got a point; she had been in studio with rampant sexism, and in others were there was none she could see.

Wait... I didn't tell you of that time we had a live bear?

I never said ", so it must not be there". I'm only saying, I guess I'm lucky to have worked in studios where they were little enough that I never heard about it, and cannot recount a moment where a woman was ignored for a less talented man.

That suck, and I can only offer my sympathy for surviving this kind of asshole.

I fully understand what you mean... Even if Hitler is a bit remote for this kind of comparison. My point was not about one individual speaking out, but a group of people doing that. The problem I see, is any group forming would have to fight to distance themselves from former GG, and that could even affect their…

It's not a proposition without merits.

And supporting GamerGate also results in harassment. So I guess people should just stop harassing the shit out of each other.

Ah, do you mean nobody said a word when someone was fired from GameSpot - sorry, forgot his name - for making a fair review? Are you saying M. Fish never got criticized for his suspicious involvement with other media individual? Are you saying it only happens with women?

It is why I said it exist in the industry, we have proof of that.

Ah, my point is that article painting everybody of a group, or even the group itself, as being of single color is not helping anything, and that in two parts;

I know myself to be a rather... intimidating individual, and even I know myself to not be at all. It takes a lot of time to people to warm up to me. But let's just say, I would never dismiss someone claiming harassment.
