No no, you still see the opposing team as terrorists, and that's how they see you as well.It's kind of clever, actually.
Operation Nordlitch is happening on 8chan
they are writing a book to sell on amazon about their side of the story. lawfags and writingfags are all doing it.
proceeds go to charity
OH Jesus.

This should be fucking funny.

No sympathy. Maybe I might care after she's had her career collapse around her and is alone and ignored for 5 years.
Till then, she can jump off a bridge for all I care. You reap what you sow. If feeling that way makes me a bad person, I don't even care anymore.
best part is the guy that is willing to publish it for them already has a audience on digital ebook sellings.
the guy is a /MLP/ book publisher, but still.
I love how we're so insignificant and yet we've been following and basically archiving everything in two separate threads.
We're like that unknown rebel base that actually has the weapons they're looking for.

There are a bunch more like this. Quite literally a handful. Just wait until I do the suicidal threat video. I'm wondering how long that video will be, but I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being 50 minutes just from [i]going over[/i] the logs.
[QUOTE=Wii60;46031953]apparently Anti-gg people made it to go "Please lets stop fighting"[/QUOTE]
That is going to be quickly ignored, nothing is going to stop the collapse of 4chan unless Moot heavily changes his position but that is highly unlikely
I had no idea facepunch was talking about this until now. What would be the "win state" for this whole debacle? Zoe Quinn can't make another game without being reminded of this, and I've personally never taken game journalism seriously, as will others after being accused of misogyny. As for the SJWs, obsessive political correctness has always been a problem that won't be fixed anytime soon.
They're going to push the gamergate side an inch too far with this. They think they have some indomitable position on this but really, the moment the gamergate side decides to drop the cordiality they'll get the internet hate machine they've been desparetly trying to portray everyone as.
You shouldn't go looking for monsters under the bed, you just might find them.

which would be the dumbest thing possible to do ?
I doubt there will ever be a win state for either side. Gamergate supporters keep finding evidence, while Quinn supporters are spreading false information on a much more aggressive scale and convincing people who are just joining in on this.
Honestly? My end goal is to have the fake social justice people respond in such a horrific way that they only prove themselves to be a bunch of nobodies looking to feel good about themselves.
I really want to clean out feminism and the social justice movement so it can move forward again.
The win I see is ZQ goes silent for a few years, video game websites implement major reforms to cover game related news and not unrelated shit such as SJW-tier stuff, 4chan collapses (or doesn't) and that's about it
However what will really happen is, ZQ will continue to defend herself, video game websites will continue on with their day but face heavy ridicule from the public until another scandal pops up, 4chan collapses into a new website (if the source is true) but dies anyway and people continue spitting in each others faces

I want that the most toxic of the bunch get sacked or publicly humiliated. Most of all Maya Felix Kramer and Leigh Alexander. What they are doing is to terrorize people who are not sharing their opinions out of this business, or dox/DDOS them. They have no right to be in a position of power with that misbehavior of theirs.

The win state... you're asking for realistic one or what would be ideal?
Because for me, ideally I'd like to see heads rolling and quite a few media sites crashing down and burning to ash. I honestly don't give a shit what happens to people who started this. Fuck ZQ and five burgers. I want gaming media sites closed down so that next ones soon to appear will be smarter next time around.
Realistically, however, just heads rolling will be quite enough. I agree with Jordax on this.
people are making a list of all the pro/anti/neutral/etc. gamergate sites
we are on the list

If you think this is going to be the end of 4chan, I think you're being very optimistic. There's a lot of other boards and people there who don't care about any of this.

yea thats the only problem on the thing so far.
it should be moved to contested.

Should be moved to pro tbh but w/e, needs a better designed image

This is good to hear, but it's going to take a fucking long time. I don't know if this whole thing has the momentum to still be relevant when the book drops.

/sp/ and /pol/ also imploded once GG threads started being purged, but there's no reason any on the porn boards should care.

I wonder what the context of that is, because originally that was from a talk about [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVkLVRt6c1U]making sure you were getting paid as a design freelancer.[/url]
Good video btw.

Agreed, that talk is pretty good. A lot of those XOXO screenshots are just taken out of context so you really shouldn't judge them too much...

Or was it just people from /v/ posting on other boards? We'll never know for certain since it's all anonymous, but it's something to keep in mind. Anonymity can make things bigger or smaller than they actually are.
