#GamerGate may be the videogames version of InfoWars but fucking with 4chan while they are in super paranoid mode because of Lime?

The same men (who need to get laid) who obsess over this shit are the same men who slut-shame women for giving it up too easily.

Oh sweet, delicious irony.

Yeah, same here. I don't work in the industry, and aside from some Japanese focused ones I don't read gaming websites, listen to podcasts, etc.

I'm all for doing what's right and being a good person, I just have zero clue why people are so angry, disgusted, etc.

Ok, I do "write" little articles for Mecha Damashii. I should probably mention that.

I'm pretty buried with work that pays right now. I was fairly active in that first thread about Quinn wherein EviLore posted the support emails and responses, but I find myself largely out of the loop on this one. I mean, I've followed it. But not as actively as staying out in front of this clusterfuck really necessitates.

Also, I know you're probably largely being facetious, but I do think it's worth pointing out that moderation over there is entirely voluntary and comes with no minimum expectation of effort, really. Like I said, I know you're probably just joking there with an overly paranoid observation, but no SOS goes out when something like this occurs. I don't get a call on my dedicated GAF phone wherein EviLore says "Hey, get your ass away from that other forum and stay on top of this #GamerGate situation. I expect a report in an hour!"

I don't really think I'm the person to defer to on it, but my best explanation for the situation is that #GamerGate is a largely contrived grass roots situation. To compare it to a political movement, it's a lot like conservatives trying to insist that we need to look into what really happened with Benghazi wherein there's maybe a small handful of people actually concerned that something nefarious actually occurred there and the rest are just using it as a smokescreen to deride Obama. But in this current example, Obama is "Gaming Social Justice Warriors."

There's a scattering of people that really believe that Gaming Journalism has some things to answer for and that this is as good a time as any to call for ethical reform. The rest just want the Zoe Quinn's and Anita Sarkeesians of the world to shut the fuck up and leave vidya alone.

“Doomed Since 1889″ is a community site for Nintendo fans to write whatever they want, we’re not professional writers and we don’t pretend to be. This is a site for Nintendo fans that are tired of the constant click-bait articles and Michael Pachter quotes about how Nintendo should make iOS games or stop making hardware.

Insofar as I could tell, we were the most horrible collective of moderators ever assembled. Not for the reasons /r/Neofeg would have you believe, mind you, but because we were unfair to Nintendo.

No greater crime.

I still consider this the greatest tweet ever. It involves comparing being a Nintendo fan on NeoGAF to being Jewish in Nazi Germany: https://twitter.com/ColdBlooder/status/424242662632206336

Next Nintendofans on @NeoGAF are forced to have a powerstar as an avatar... Wouldn't surprise me one bit at this point.

This is amazing.
Ninthings are the best fanboys, Xbots & Sony ponies (though the latter are getting there) has nothing on the OG.

I think he's pretty decent at writing (and I think he's in the profession), but every time I see a Neiteio post or thread, I want to die from cringe due to his ultra-hyperbole throughout his posts.  It weirds me out a little that he's become semi-elevated to being an excellent poster on the forum when much of it comes from hyperbolic statements and a certain fanbase clinging to his every word.  The sad thing is that he used to be a better poster (and still can be at times) until he got sucked into the celebrity of being "that guy with the really long hyperbolic posts, especially if they're about Nintendo games and boy we love our Father Nintendo's games don't we".

Cases in point:

Not to mention the assortment of posts with excessive caps and over-embellishing.

It's so...  :kobeyuck :holeup :beli :what

There's a lot of good content in there, but it gets so lost in a bulk of hyperbole or unnecessary flowering and overcompensation that it leaves a bad aftertaste.  It's just video games, man.  Keep your pants on and try not to mess 'em up from unstoppable dripping.  Writing long posts is great.  Writing long posts where the bulk of it is hyperbole is a turn-off.

All of them are crazy.  Seems to be a shortage of MS fans lately, or they're just keeping quiet.  I don't think I'll ever get their attachment to pieces of metal/plastic or companies whose marketing make them feel a sense of self-importance.

Neiteio's the guy that thinks people only hated Resident Evil 6 because they were playing it wrong and even made a tread to try to "correct" people in their thinking. His opinion on stuff has been moot to me ever since.

Dude can't go five posts without saying something is either the best or the worst.
