I can't fault you for it being long, there's a hell of a lot of shit to cover on the matter. Your videos put up a really strong argument and are generally better off for it. How much attention did the original video get? I posted it on 8chan's /gg/ board a few times but people weren't very interested.

Thank you!
Very true. Also, part of the reason why they're so long is because you want to force people to engage with the fact that there is a significant amount of information on emotional abuse within the receipts. I think the video successfully did that. If you only watch 10 mins, and you notice that there's 40 mins of additional proof, you tend to conclude that there is an overwhelming amount of evidence towards proving ZQ is abusive.
Doubly so when you only see 20 minutes of a 110 minute series. Granted, the idea is to get people to watch all 110 minutes, but I know from analytics alone that that isn't going to happen. At best, the average viewtime is 12 - 14 minutes. So you have to make the beginning count, and you have to make the actual Zoepost content extremely accessible via annotations and time links.
The original video got a significant amount of attention. I'm about to break 5,000 views and I'm over 200 likes. It was spread around twitter relatively quickly and people really enjoyed it. There's also more coverage about my videos coming soon from other sources, but I don't think I can go into much detail about that yet.

Also, I expect this video will be a double-edged sword, because a large amount of the withholding that ZQ does is related to the cheating. I never say the cheating is abusive, just what she does to hide it and minimize it (and how she weaponizes it to hurt Eron). But, I expect Pt 2 will blow up because I give so much coverage to the relationship ramifications of Five Guys.
Hey guys, I have a question.
When I choose to talk about this with other people and present err .. proof of what's happening, how do I make them understand it's legit?
Like for example the polytron hack. How for example, is using this information in formal ways legitimate if it was recieved by illegal means?
How do I prove what's in the infographics is right and not photoshopped, including the deleted screencap tweets/statements/etc.?
I know I'm probably asking impossible questions, but I am at a loss.

4chan has no TOS or privacy policy (all links redirect to DMCA page), despite also acting as a "merchant". If it was indeed a "representative" of that company disseminating illegally obtained PII, then lmao.

I think there was a sudden influx of new posters this morning, the quality of posting has really gone down the shitter.
Anyone interested in a prelim screening of my video, by the way? As long as you keep it private, I can send you the unlisted version. Shoot me a PM
They're making people afraid to talk and shutting down discourse AGAIN. This is seriously pissing me off.
I honestly don't know what to think about the mods doxxing people. It seems so out-there.
What [i]is[/i] up with cracked anyawy? I seem to remember reading tons of 'cold harsh reality of the world'-type articles a few years back. Articles about how you should cut your stupid purple hair and how the world only cares about what you can give to it. Complete 180 much?

holy shit he's dense, how in the ever loving fuck do you miss the point of something twice in a row
His point is going right over my head, and I don't think that's because I'm the dense one here.
These people do realize that not every marginalized identity is going to kiss the boots of privileged allies, right? Maybe - just maybe - marginalized identities are diverse groups that have a wide range of individuals and beliefs inside of them, and therefore many marginalized identities will never fully agree with leftist views on liberation.
That's a conversation allies shouldn't be engaging in. Let women talk with other women. Let people of color talk to other people of color. It's so fucking obvious these white male cisgender writers are condescendingly "explaining" social justice to women/trans people/people of color because they want fucking brownie points, nothing else.
They're just Nice Guys on the SJ side. That's why evillore can talk high and mighty about feminism in one tweet, then leak a woman's nudes on another side and talk about a woman's vagina on twitter. What a bunch of bullshit.

Proof?
What the hell is with the wikipedia article, every time I read it, it tells an entirely different story, once again it's primarily about feminism, and officially counting - Journalism corruption = 50 words (journalism ethics section was removed), Feminism = 4212 words
The sources of information are all majority anti-gamers gate as well, with such well defined sources as [I]Kotaku[/I] and [I]The Guardian[/I]
[URL="http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/08/22/gaming-misogyny-gets-infinite-lives-zoe-quinn-virtual-rape-and-sexism.html"]Also sources like this.[/URL]
WERE TOTALLY NEUTRAL
As Jimmy Wales puts it : [quote]6/The article as it is right now is not unfair to either side. It's just a badly written battleground.[/quote][quote]4/With [URL="https://twitter.com/hashtag/gamergate?src=hash"]#gamergate[/URL] I see the same dynamic. Too many of the people fighting about it care nothing for Wikipedia. Both sides guilty.[/quote]
Hope it's fixed soon.
[QUOTE=SPESSMEHREN;46097473]Proof?[/QUOTE]
I mean that pastebin doxxing was confirmed by Boogie and sh0ehorn, among others.
There was also GGfeminist who was doxxed. She is a faculty professor at Cornell University. And #NotYourShield's creator, and a #GG trans woman (forget her handle).

Why is he portraying himself as a bear?
[QUOTE=LtKyle2;46097801]Why is he portraying himself as a bear?[/QUOTE]
There was the whole thing where his character used to just be a 100% self insert and he insisted it wasn't, which caused him to change to a bear instead even though he draws it with his own glasses.
He also used to portray himself with hair and then people called him out for wishing he wasn't bald irl, and he even used to have a fedora on his character which he removed because everyone relates fedoras to neckbeards now.
He's not got much backbone.

Aye, his ego's ballooning out of control. Fortunately, Social Justice is taking on a lot of water recently, so it's pretty clear that his bubble will burst soon.

I'm just waiting to see how long it takes him to say that the mascot was created for a feminist fundraiser... Bury me with a laptop, please.

So I went around his gallery and it was frightening to say the least. Everything is somehow about skyrim and women portrayed in comics, compared to his earlier work.
And that damn bear self-insert.

I'd have to agree and say this is just wild speculation, unless there's some hard evidence.
