[QUOTE=Wii60;46550201]found a alternate archive.today-type site incase that one gets ransacked [URL]http://www.peeep.us/[/URL] BTW i was on that Block list from the IDGA. just need some dumb idiot to blacklist me again.[/QUOTE] It seems that site accepts user-defined data... but I'm not sure. I'd say it's not impossible to manipulate if they can archive private posts. [editline]edit[/editline] I'll check the script, maybe you "just" give them your login cookies.

[QUOTE=V12US;46547681]Why do these women all have anime hair. Blue and pink are not hair colors. It's like the female equivalent of a guy wearing a trenchcoat and a fedora.[/QUOTE] this annoys me because i want to dye my hair to some bright color at some point and i dont want to be associated with those peeps

The site absolutely cannot be trusted (and you should point that out if people use it). No PoC yet, maybe I'll make one later to quickly highlight the issue.

"incite a mob" People got angry at you because censored them for little to no reason, it wasn't his fault. Watch as she gets "death threats." It'll happen.

[QUOTE=gudman;46550708][irrelevant]so it confirms once again the old rule where if you can only see part of a woman's face on a photo, it's safe to assume she's fat[/irrelevant][/QUOTE] You should read her ED page. It's pretty damn hilarious... and disgusting.

And nah it doesn't work with men as reliably, men just use anime/cartoon avatars or pictures of David Duchovny.

[QUOTE=Devodiere;46547128]He's gotten better at not saying stupid shit, but I don't think much has changed. He's always been a bit of an impulsive dickhead and has gone off the deep end multiple times, yet even before the cancer he was at least aware of and acknowledged his fuckups even apologising for many of them. Simply acknowledging that you fucked up is such a rare thing in internet communities that it's worth recognition. For all the stupid dickheads around, he's at least one of the better dickheads.[/QUOTE] As stated in the TB thread itself, actually getting treatment for his bipolar disorder has definitely changed his attitude.

[QUOTE=Tetsmega;46547707]They want to be the main character because the world revolves around them.[/QUOTE] Wow, you know I've always wondered why people do that but... ... now it makes so much sense.

Apparently CH Sommers' wikipedia page got defaced big time, according to her twitter. It looks like it's gotten back to normal now, but considering all that's happened, we probably don't have to look far to find who's responsible.

[QUOTE=1239the;46552163][IMG]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B3E9pnvIcAAUWbx.png[/IMG] Your outrage is an admission of guilt.[/QUOTE] Can you really blame him for being outraged? I mean all you did was place him on a blacklist that labeled him as a horrible human being, and potentially hurt his future carrer prospects. You didn't do anything wrong, right? Right?

"personally attacked" "raging out" ... The only time he ever mentioned you is to apologise about calling out how shitty your code is, you fucking delusional cow

[QUOTE=joshuadim;46545469][IMG]http://puu.sh/d0naK/d69fb39e5b.jpg[/IMG] TB is leading the polls for "Trending Gamer" By a large margin too. Fuck yeah[/QUOTE] Seeing his acceptance speech will be priceless.

What saddens me is that (hopefully) most people would agree on the big things: everyone should feel welcome in the gaming community, video game journalists should do their best to be unbiased and honest, doxxing is bad, et cetera, but if someone even appears to support the nebulous idea that is GG they get associated with all manner of terrible things. Any disorganized group can be made to look ridiculous by a couple of extremists, but the (sane) arguments shouldn't be disregarded just because of that.
