Are you literally using moderated comments UNDER the praise of her release within a major publication as the existence of criticisms in major publications? Tan; can you not even find one truly critical piece of her work from any of these guys? /sigh. Let me remind you again; death threats for...

1.) You keep saying the mainstream media doesn't cover all sides, Tan. And that's true, of INDIVIDUAL sources within the media. But luckily, broader media is composed (In the U.S.) of at least 6 different conglomerates; and dozens of subsidiaries that are often purposely made antagonistic to...

Yeah; I can see why he's confused, because my stance has been so nebulous on the issue. There are more, especially from the other threads, but fuck it.

I'll respond to your long post later (I'm handling some of those "important" problems in work). But what in thefuckis an LCW? From my skimming of that random petition you linked it seems like they were veering off into some conspiracy theory territory with what Anita's origins were, and what her...

I agree with this. Like Margaret as a character a lot, but yeah, I can see why people get annoyed, she has an enormously hypocritical and shitty side. Butallthe characters in the show do. I think the difference is what Chaos and Tarrant mentioned, when the main characters are being shitty or...

At no point did I say the dismissal of thetrollscomments was inappropriate. I think it's fine they are ignored. The only reason I even stated they had a "reason" for their attack wasnotto illustrate that their attack was legitimate but to illustrate the CAUSE of said attack was not merely that...

Anyway, the TFYC-the owner who was doxxed by Zoe; and harassed, has had his accounts hacked. Multiple other GG heads have had harassment in RL; and the progenitor of #notyourshield had his work called and was fired. However, I am skeptical of all these until I see evidence(Yes, even people I...

I think he called you a mormon.

As I highlighted last time--he consistently refers, throughout the article, to the plural nominative known as "we". In the English language this indicatespossession; andliterallymeans the author is talking about himself (Or in the plural form, the group he belongs to). Every section break but...

I've given you actual examples from the article illustrating the inclusion of "us" as gamers and sentiments about "our" problems. If you still want to believe he's somehow not pontificating on gamers themselves; that's your prerogative. However, just to go over once more.... 4 WaysGamersStill...

It's a country where socks are a new technology...they just upgraded to socks recently. Take that how you will.

I did not quote split first. And to be fair, this whole conversation would be infracted on sites like EJ. In the end, Tan split my post up under 5 categories. I responded with one quote each. I almost always respond in blocks if I can, but if scissors are going to be used on the issue; I'll...

He claims that male gamers, in general, can't talk until the minority is taken care of. He also, as I illustrated later, disregards the legitimate criticism as "clearly" not being the point, because it has to be sexism (Discussed below). As for thee mails: The large mess of emails that just got...

Not asking for harassment, mind you. But she did choose an area of pop culture specifically because she could use the drama to make her critiques more influential--sure. I don't regard that as bad though, she's a smart cookie. And it's fine that it's working, many men have taken ridiculous...

Yep, and as seen with Jack Thompson (Who was a pure lunatic)--when Kotaku was criticizing him and the trolls essentially did the same thing to him? Kotaku refused a legal request to remove the troll posts making death threats; stating they were essentially, as you described, harmless cranks...

I literally quoted where you did. The quote functions, contain links where you can jump back to a conversation. In the convsersation I was illustrating how many ideologies are ruled by their most radical elements; because those are the elements most active in their ideologies, and you said--and...

Earlier in this thread, when multiple examples of Feminists acting like belligerent assholes were trotted out--you claimed it was unfair to ignore underlying issues, and disregard a group of people due to a radical few. But now you support doing just that to the many, many gamers who are really...

On one hand, really glad I waited on this; ques frustrate the shit out of me. On the other hand, Founders still got all the land, so the packs weren't a total waste if you got a house down. Really want a house if I'm going to play a Sandbox, hoping some of the land grab frees up as taxes start...

Does it get better past the midway point of the season? Because, honestly, by Episode 4 I found this to be worse than most of the new "high production" Network TV shlock (Sub 12 episodes) being pumped out. I mean, yeah, better than standard episodic TV sure, but still bad. I'll have to try...

Bleh, so the Eastern Land is all used up already? Is it the same story on the Western side? (Maybe gank some PRX :P )

Expert troll is expert. But just in case it's not--as Soygen said, it's just the nature of anecdotes. It's perfectly reasonable to believe the men did everything right--and still got fucked (Just as it's also reasonable to believe they didn't; and we simply don't know what they did wrong). It...

I agree, here is a quote from that thread. Now, given, as Dumar mentioned--the nature of that debate was different. My position was that sensory input is sensory input--it's just electric or chemical signals. Your consciousness has no effect on those actual signals, in the end it's all just...

Hmm. (Below conversation from last year) ************************************************** **************** Hmmmmm...... (There were other arguments also; just illustrating the train of thought by Dumar at the time--that consciousness can affect reality. That there is more to these...

Really? That's interesting. I always just assumed it worked like hamburgers, hah. I know about 100 years ago, somehow the standards got set in place nationally and that is where the milling shrink happened. I just always chalked it up to them sanding out impurities (Or cutting?) and baking out...

I agree, judge is a retard. It's named that way because you ARE actually getting 2"X4" of wood, it's dimensions have just shrunk since it's beendried. Someone should have put a small cup of water on the judges desk and said "we're willing to offer this to everyone who feels cheated...since this...

We just have women collect the balls. You know, because in America we like to have women hold our balls; instead of pooping on them.

Because Soygen can't understand these new fangled MMO types these young whipper snappers are playing.

I was under the impression that the "MMO aspects" of these games, and even Shroud of the Avatar, were essentially the same "nu-MMO" style of "robust multi-player" with abstract economic/social effects. Or, to put it another way, you only encounter other players when you actually want to, but you...

Damn, shit's about to get real. Edit: Next week's preview is already bugging me. Abbey "This is about your dirty business"--and her involving the guy she is fucking with the daughter. The fuck? This ENTIRE season Ray has been saying one thing--the people Marvin hangs around with are...
