It probably has been said already on the 13 pages but if they disagree with her they should try argue with her instead of resorting to childish acts like this that only prove her point and show the male gaming community in a bad light.
[QUOTE=SIRIUS;36700354]She REALLY likes the word trope[/QUOTE]
Well, that's because that's what they're called. Any convention or device found in a creative work (be it a type of person, a story mechanic, or a location) is called a Trope.
That, and I think she does shit for TVTropes.

I can accept that, i just find it funny how i've never heard the word before seeing one of here videos, where she says it every 12 seconds
[QUOTE=iFail;36704683]
that is to say, I don't understand the constant need to reiterate gender in this context.[/QUOTE]
well the author himself reiterates gender:
[quote]She claims to want gender equality in video games, but in reality, she just wants to use the fact that she was born with a vagina to get free money and sympathy from everyone who crosses her path[/quote]
so he's a pissy little shit who couldn't argue his pathetic opinions so he decided to make wishful thinking into a flash game
pretty simple
I don't really see why this is such an issue. Haven't flash games like these been a staple of internet culture for ages? Like, since the mid-90s?

I was actually just about to say this. I don't really feel that this is THAT big of an issue. My view might be somewhat biased, as I think Tropes vs. Women is just plain ridiculous, but a shitty flash game where you add bruises and cuts to a jpeg of a woman's face is not that big of a deal.
It's really unfortunate that disliking the video's she's making basically throws you into a group like this... It's not that I disagree that sexism is a problem in the video game industry, or that I even think some of the points she's making aren't valid - it's just that she seems to already have all the consoles/games/equipment she's going to need to make the videos. I mean it honestly just seems like she's trying to profit off of a serious issue. I think that if done right this could have been a really good thing, but all this is going to do is re-state things we already know
The reason people think it's a scam is because if she simply wanted to profit from her work, she could sign up for youtube's profit sharing program. The only reason I can think of that she wouldn't just do that is because she knew the videos wouldn't be of good enough quality to garner much interest.
So basically the only reason to start a kickstarter in the first place would be to rip people off, no matter how much money she was asking for.
Making a flash game where you beat her up for that is immature and dumb, but not necessarily sexist. I'm unsure about some of his comments, on the other hand.

i didnt even post in this thread and you guys somehow spent the first three pages talking exclusively about me.
and [I]i'm[/I] the one with the problem?

[QUOTE=thisispain;36702877]he might not want to rape women in his spare time, but apparently he makes flash games where you beat women up in his spare time.
it's a probable conclusion that his opinion of women isn't really high[/QUOTE]
The game isn't about beating women up, it's about beating up a single woman who he disagrees with (which is still disgusting and childish)

Newgrounds is full of games for and by retards though. If something can be made, someone will eventually make it. Aside from for example the section of toilet humor, there's a whole section for simulations of killing/torturing people you find annoying or hate. So I don't see it as neither a big surprise or anything really noteworthy that someone would eventually make this type of flash about her.
It's a bit like rule #34 really. If someone becomes famous enough, someone will make a flash where they get killed/tortured.

Sometimes I wonder if Jeep-Eep has broken keyboard, that would explain well why he never defends his opinions.
