Indiegogo Fine Young Capitalists campaign shut down. - Polidicks

[url]http://support.indiegogo.com/hc/en-us/articles/527416-Deleting-a-Campaign[/url] Campaigns can only be deleted if they don't have any funds. So either this was an inside job or indiegogo had to disable/delete it.

[QUOTE=ripsipiirakk;45784028]I think this was an inside job, Zoe said that he will be contacting his friend in the team. How low can people go. What a bitch.[/QUOTE] I wouldn't put it past her to do something as stupid as this; but I don't think she did anything. Chances are, it was entirely coincidental (more-than-likely not), OR it was somebody who has the inside scoop on who's behind this.

The scary thing is, Zoe might use /v/ herself in order to screw with people, and they can't know if she does because anonymity is secured for all users.

I've been mad about video games in the past, sure, but this shit has taken it to a whole new level. This is absolutely ridiculous.

-knee jerk, snipped. The screencaped post was deleted soon after it was posted btw-

TFYC statement can be read here. They're dealing with this pretty well despite being hacked.

I've updated the OP again. I'll try and keep it updated with new information as time goes on.

[QUOTE=Laferio;45783978]the video that was actually linked in page led to a different uploader.[/QUOTE] It was this one. I watched it on the IGG page and Youtube history says this was the one right before I started listening to Death Grips to get mad. It was uploaded in fucking 2007, definitely a red herring to go after that. [video=youtube;48rz8udZBmQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48rz8udZBmQ[/video]

[QUOTE=ZeMole;45784075]Um... [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/311SENH.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] Is there a direct link to that video/channel so we can get some kind of verification?

[QUOTE=ZeMole;45784075]Um... [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/311SENH.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] This is a false flag, the video on the hacked page was different. Do not spread this.

yeah here's some verification that the guy who posted that is an idiot [img]http://i62.tinypic.com/30caxah.jpg[/img] here's the original page, the video literally linked to: [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48rz8udZBmQ[/url] [img]http://puu.sh/b5FzT/fdde4c5ed4.png[/img] was nice b8

I haven't really kept up with the drama, but at this point I'm pretty much convinced there's some third party involved who is fucking with both sides just so they can watch the world burn.

[B]E:[/B] This is literally people not allowing nice things to happen. It's not just a phrase anymore, this is shit happening and being ruined right before our eyes.

I think information is being withheld about how it was hacked. That's pretty important as it will settle a lot of disputes .. unless someone does not want to settle them.

If you've even been casually following this case you would have realised that it's pretty fucking apparent that something is very, very rotten in the games journalism industry. Stop white knighting for Zoe, it isn't just about her anymore. It's about the industry at large.

Why is pageking still a thing?

[QUOTE=Mecha Pirate;45784192]Why is pageking still a thing?[/QUOTE] Well it's bannable nowadays so...RIP?

I'm not trying to defend/vilify anybody, I'm saying I haven't seen enough actual evidence to convince me that Zoe has done any of the things people are claiming she's done. If I'm coming off as unnecessarily pessimistic about the current general mood towards Zoe then I apologise; it's just that from what I've seen (maybe/possibly/likely a very select portion of the story) it seems like everybody is using Jon-vs-Arin-crisis-level 'detective work' to make Zoe out to be the devil. Like I said, if there's evidence that I haven't seen (and there probably is) based on issues and events that I haven't heard about (and there definitely is) I'd be glad to read through it. At the end of the day I want to be as educated as I can be about this issue so that I can have an informed opinion. [editline]24th August 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=xxncxx;45784211]this just in: a person who normally would defend abuse victims is now vilifying them I used to think you were a good poster too.[/QUOTE] who is this abuse victim that I'm vilifying? I don't mean to backtrack on the post that I just made re: asking for evidence, but as a point of logic - asking for further evidence before coming down on either side isn't defending or vilifying anybody. It's abstaining.

It's loaded with evidence, such as chatlogs and the like.

You would think a website responsible for handling vast amounts of crowd-funded cash would have better security protocols. If it's just a single password between you and your funds, that's kind of concerning. [editline]24th August 2014[/editline] I mean, this is literally tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars we're talking about here. Having more than one for of validation for an account is necessary, isn't it?
