Corruption in gaming journalism discussion and update thread. - General

yeah zoe has very little to do with #gg anymore so let's not get too into it

Man, that Facebook post feels like it made this whole thing take a fucking bizzaro turn all of a sudden.

[QUOTE=wickedplayer494;46146404]/r/KotakuInAction seems to be of the mindset of contacting NVIDIA's PR people as well instead of discussing the post, which I can't really blame them for.[/QUOTE] I'm not really surprised. It has little to do with r/KotakuInAction "things" but for here us, who are kinda watching the Eron stuff unfold thanks to Reimu, we're going to be keeping it in our peripheral vision. Like, I really don't think she fucking killed someone. That is fucking ridiculous. How do you kill someone and have no one find out about it? How do you go around telling people you killed someone in a traumatic event? It just reeks of some schoolyard "I'm tough" bullshit, on top of the pathological lying she is known to do.

If this gets any deeper Zoe will literally be a serial killer having sex with Obama whose ancestor was the leader of the Knights Templar.

[QUOTE=Dermock;46146428]If this gets any deeper Zoe will literally be a serial killer having sex with Obama whose ancestor was the leader of the Knights Templar.[/QUOTE] Confirmed: Zoe Quinn wrote Assassins Creed.

Zoe is literally incapable of not creating drama.

As entertaining and mostly horrifying is to watch it unfold , it really just gives her more ammo to make drama ,shes becoming a perpetual drama machine.

So Zoe apparently killed a guy and there are rumors of a bomb being/been planted in a car at Gearbox HQ.......Is it safe to say that nothing can redeem AGG now? And that they are all batshit insane and need help asap.

not all of agg is batshit insane, some are misguided and just go with the flow. i can understand why that happens. but like the other 90% is batshit insane yes.

[QUOTE=Wii60;46145966]For those who still care for literally who (Reimu for example), here's another fun story that came out [URL="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152274323855882&set=a.412206445881.199341.597085881&type=1&theater"]https://www.facebook.com/mallorie.nasrallah/posts/10152274324055882:0[/URL] pastebin just in case: [URL]http://pastebin.com/mmx1WrEv[/URL][/QUOTE] I doubt she actually killed anyone. What this taught me about Zoe is how much of a compulsive liar she is, and how much she distorts the truth. I bet her "rapes" were just guys talking to her. Nonetheless, this destroys any credibility she has, and Eron should really use him as evidence in court. [editline]4th October 2014[/editline] She needs professional help

[QUOTE=Xonax;46146919]I dunno how a guy who died can go to court.[/QUOTE]There is nothing to say anyone died other than ZQs claim, which pretty much everyone here finds incredibly implausible. I think what KillerJaguar means is either that Eron should use her statements about him, or meant to say use her (the woman who brought this revelation to light) in court. It does make me wonder though about that early claim that she glassed a transwoman because of a disagreement or something.

tbh the guy is pretty funny and he's not incorrect in his claims. he doesn't murder children and he's not a murderer (probably). saying you'll do it doesn't mean you do it now or have done it in the past : - )

his tweets are protected now

[QUOTE=fhASSA;46147361][t]http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/841/689/765.jpg[/t] Pshhhh... nothin personnel kid[/QUOTE] Even if this was 100% a joke, who the fuck would come up with something like this? If somebody had said "If my kid supports Zoe Quinn, I will kill them. I will drown them in the bath.", there'd be like 50 news articles about it.

With regard to the Facebook post: I think what's key here isn't the validity of the stabbing, it's how Zoe Quinn acts and the fact that she puts forward the allegation. This isn't the first time Zoe Quinn has made false allegations about others. She has a long history of lying in the industry alone, and has hurt a lot of people by doing so. I think Mallorie's story - as frightening and disturbing as it is - might be a catalyst for more people to come out. [editline]4th October 2014[/editline] For the record, now that I've slept on it - I don't think Zoe Quinn actually stabbed someone. But I don't think we can make a conclusion yet.

I missed the detail where the photographer was female. That explains why Zoe didn't claim she was raped by them or something. I meant that Eron should use those statements to discredit Zoe because it proves how much she distorts the truth. Her claim about killing someone is lose-lose for her. If it's false, which it most likely is, it shows how much of a liar she is and destroys her credibility. If it's true, she's now a murderer and can be tried for a much worse crime.

Also, there is definitely more stories out there than Mallorie's call out, because Eron has said others have privately reached out to him about their experiences with Zoe. The Zoepost was really just the tip of the iceberg. Things go much deeper for Zoe Quinn.

FYI, to all those hosting your stuff on Github. I sincerely suggest you stop using the service. This is what they do to those that complain about their services.

Trying to figure out if the people emailing you are real or not and/or developers or not is not against the law. Googling someone's email is not against the law nor even unethical. It's what people do when they receive hundreds of complaints.

Unfortunately it will most likely be shrugged off .. but who knows

Regardless, its entirely possible that the email is fake. I tried searching my own email via the same website about an hour ago and I haven't received any emails about someone looking me up.

[QUOTE=Smt;46149457]I tried and mine went into spam, but I did get that email though (he could also have just searched him self too)[/QUOTE] Also possible. My immediate thought when I saw the pic was to try it on myself to see if its actually legit. Last thing we need is false flags.
