I doubt Valve took it as a serious death threat either, but they had to show that there's consequences to acting like a prick instead of an adult.

Bullshit. One email or phone call would have rectified the situation. Instead he makes an ass of himself.

Threats against peoples lives should never be taken lightly, it only takes one lunatic. Also with how bitterly toxic and unhinged people related to games have been this year, I really wouldn't take that as an empty threat.

They think it's like Watergate. In reality it is more like Anon.

feminazi stole your ice cream, huh?

Gamergaters I've talked to or whose online posts, Tweets and videos I've consumed still believe that they can sort this out and claim Gamergate as an effective watchdog movement for policing games reporting.

they have the mob mentality of "if we are silenced, we just yell louder." I doubt the fact that it will stop even after the death of the mob.
