Yeah, but the thing is here the whore he's referring to DID do it. Everything that she was accused of DID happen. There is no "if's" or "maybe's". Nobody is exaggerating shit.

The internet has always been happy to ruin a person's life over speculation and hearsay. It is, in fact, a favorite tactic of the social justice brigade. Like Donglegate!

Is there even any proof she did it outside of her admission on twitter?

I mean an admission is great and all but still.

I mean if we're gonna get mad at SJW's for taking girls' word for it we shouldn't do the same thing.

There is no 'but still'

I doubt anybody has the kind of leverage over her right now to force a false confession. A confession is damning evidence and she outright said it herself.

'but still' my ass.

>>259315719
See, but there is a but still. Because basically if the admission is all we have, then like, the week of shooting off about it before that was just us being twats.

I agree with him.

But, no one is trying to ruin her life. She's faking most of these attacks and there's tons of evidence supporting that.

Not only that, it's not what she MAY have done, she's proven to have done so.

They hate when it happens to them.

Yet people like the Firefox CEO and the Donglegate shit is fair game for them.

it's not something she may have done, it's something she did.
also and i find this really important to stress most of our attack after the first day or two were not against her but against the five guys and the industry, but 4chan is a blunderbuss, everyone is gonna get a little shit on them, and if you cry about it you're just making yourself into a bigger target, making you end up with even more shit on you

The woman who developed Depression Quest allegedly cheated on her ex-boyfriend multiple times, slept with game journalists (ostensibly for favors like positive coverage of her game), and lied about everything.

This is also drawing further attention to a bunch of other shit she allegedly did in the past, like faking harassment campaigns in order to get sympathy. I'm sure someone will post all the details.

Also she did porn, but hey, apparently that's "private" even though the pictures are professionally shot and commercially available.

>Recent criticism of the use of myriad as a noun, both in the plural form myriads and in the phrase a myriad of, seems to reflect a mistaken belief that the word was originally and is still properly only an adjective. As the entries here show, however, the noun is in fact the older form, dating to the 16th century. The noun myriad has appeared in the works of such writers as Milton (plural myriads) and Thoreau (a myriad of), and it continues to occur frequently in reputable English. There is no reason to avoid it.

Why would she tell her ex-boyfriend that she cheated on him with a bunch of people if it weren't true? That's not a lie that would benefit her unless she foresaw the leak and the entire subsequent controversy and thought it would get her more sympathy than hatred. That's a stretch.

TBH, as much as I like to believe that whatever we know is public knowledge, it really isn't.

4chan has always been a warning trigger for any "famous" internet celebs out there, they admit to going on reddit, but never so much as mention 4chan or even acknowledging that they know of it.

So when shit like this happens, they tend to disregard anything from 4chan, in hopes that no one finds out that they do know of 4chan.

>>
Remember, it's OK to ruin a guy's life if he's accused of rape without proof, but if a SJW cheats and fucks journalists who then promote her products, you need undeniable proof.

Anyway you retards, we have proof that she fucked the guys. Her ex provided plenty of it and she's not denying it.

And how can you people be so fucking stupid that you only consider them admitting it to be proof? Of course they aren't going to fucking admit to being corrupt. Why the hell do we suddenly need impossibly specific proof? We know she fucked people who advertised her stuff without admitting that they were in a relationship. That's all the proof you need.

I was tipped off to the zoe post being true when she laughed at one of the five guy's ex's on twitter. That was a pretty good clue. Steven Totilo tweeting a statement that the time Zoe and Nathan Grayson had sex was after he wrote about her was another pretty big smoking gun.

It takes a special brand of denial to believe Zoe didn't have sex with any journalists and she's just randomly become some kind of hate figure for evil internet sexists flooding from Wizardchan and /V/.

/v/ is trying to push the whole "corruption in journalism" shit just because some people think it's a more legitimate complaint. That's dumb though. Honestly, the real source of all the outrage is the cheating and, to an even greater extent, all the lying. If you've been reading these threads, you know that the information exposed in "the Zoe post" is not the only awful shit that Zoe allegedly did.

Well, I was one of the guys demanding to see proof, and I have to admit, I'm pretty fucking satisfied by that Facebook video. Logs are easy as fuck to fake, especially if you're in psycho-heartbroken-ex-boyfriend mode. Fake url's on vidoe are slightly more difficult, and much more unlikely.

Too bad he's always going to look like an asshole for airing dirty laundry. What he SHOULD have done is gone to a rival media website's editor and said, "hey, your chief competitor suffers from an obvious conflict of interest."

She needs to prove we're wrong.

We're walking into the room with mountains of evidence, witnesses, collaborating stories and a supporting cast of reputable people from the industry.

What does she have?

we know she got publicity from them after the relationship started, you can argue that she got the publicity/awards because she deserved them and not because of the relationship and that's a fair argument, only it's completely irrelevant.
the issue is not the relationships, it's the fact nobody disclosed them, it's about journalistic ethics, it's about the appearance of malfeasance.

Yeah, I've seen people trying to make it about cheating, but that's NOT the same as making it about sex.

If you don't think lying is immoral then you're just trying to be an edgy faggot and should leave the site until you turn 18.

The relationships and the details of them are irrelevant. She could have fucked 50 industry guys for all I care.

It's merely symptomatic of the larger cancer that needs to be excised, which is going to be a long and painful operation. Devs, critics, and publisher PR all suckling at the same teat, getting cozy with one another, and giving preferential treatment to friends in their clique is what's broken.

Not the only thing that's broken, mind -- there's still the DMCA takedown that shouldn't be possible, and the Internet Archive removal, along with the fraudulent complaint to GamesNosh's hosting company. But fixing games media would go a long way to alleviating symptoms until these issues, too, can receive the chemo.

So let me try to understand here.

The main controversy is that the woman who created Depression Quest slept with various game journalists so they would advertise her game, correct?

Why does this matter so much?

We've known for years that gaming journalism is a cesspool of shills ever since Kotaku became a Buzzfeed whore. Probably earlier than that. We know that these sort of incidents happen every week, and will keep on happening until gaming companies just decide to run journalism sites themselves (which gameinformer has shown us will happen).

So why make a big ol' fuss over this? Why not pool our resources into making a gaming journalism site that isn't a corporate asskissing whore?
>>
>>259322870

And her married boss for her job. That's pretty important too.

But all of THAT, even, is still a minor issue compared to the gross misconduct and bribery going on within every large gaming website. This is all just a convenient entry point for discussion, since no one would listen when we constantly tried to tell them that shit like IGN was basically selling reviews for adspace.

My point is that, she admitted later she fucked.

So we had no proof before that at all. We were just band wagoning. I'm not denying it happened. I'm curious why the fuck we were campaigning against her a WEEK before she admitted to fault.

Everyone knows games journalism is shit, it's been a pressure mounting on them for years. This is just the frustration manifesting itself in a movement to try and get some oversight and ethics or even just a written code of practice, y'know, like 'real' journalists have.

When it comes down to it folks just want at least a section of gaming to be credible and respectable. Sure movies have michael bay shit or superhero trash, and novels have their romance and teen fiction, but they have serious scenes with smart people critiquing them.

People want that, people want at least a subsection of the press to be more than a press release, backhanding club of manchildren.

I mean, the question doesn't even make sense, anyone who's been on the internet for more than a week knows much worse has been done, so it's hardly sudden. The phrasing itself is so benign and non-commital, doesn't mention any specifics. You can tell he just gleaned the bare minimum information about the incident. Beyond that, it's not even written with the kind of bite or venom that the other SJWs have been dealing out so it's not even inflammatory. Also, and I can't quite put my finger on why, but somehow it reads like something a kid would write.

The whole tweet is so emblematic of his current approach to everything: lazy.

also a note that she mentally abused and gaslit her boyfriend while riding journalists joysticks as well.

So not only a cheater, but an abuser that the gaming industry is supporting and even rewarding .

It's kind of insulting to anyone that's suffered emotional abuse to watch everyone defending her because omg being made accountable for ones actions is misogyny.

You guys have got to get your fucking act together if you want people to take you seriously. This can't be a he-man womun-hater's gang bang, because that just makes her into a victim. Concentrate on the conflict of interest, okay? That's the only thing that matters.

It's a big deal because this girl is BLATANTLY whoring herself out. There is hard evidence here. It's like what happened with Anita Sarkeesian except for in some ways it is worse.

I think that many of us are upset about it because she isn't contributing anything but trying to act like she is an actual game developer. She's actually ruining it for other women. She is trying to milk gaming because of ONE shitty flash "game" (visual novel) that came out like almost two years ago now that no one cares about. Anita has her niche and her followers.

I, for one, don't want that to happen again and get away with it, especially one that seems to be have no scruples with using her cunt to influence things.

And, whether we want to admit it or not, we all hate her for cheating on her boyfriend with multiple dudes. That just makes her a plain old shitty person.

Because Depression Quest isn't a fucking game and would have never have gotten this much positive press if she wasn't fucking journalists and other developers.

It's about the principal in maintaining quality of games that deserved to be promoted. It sickens me that there was probably a great game that was overshadowed by Depression Quest but because Zoe was fucking the right people never got featured.

Jesus Christ, you faggots are still arguing about this?

Words are used incorrectly and, in FACT, languages even change over time as a result.

It is literally impossible for languages to evolve if nobody ever breaks a rule, and yet Latin evolved into many languages that are spoken today. Let's resurrect some dead Romans and have them bitch about everyone not speaking proper Latin anymore if you have such a hard-on for obeying the rules.

At least the questionable use of the word "of" isn't as bad as a complete reversal of meaning, like "literally" being used to add weight to hyperbole, or people saying "I could care less" when they don't care at all.

>>259324324
I'm not saying the confession is worthless.

Anon, you need to calm down. Genuinely.

What I'm saying is, if I was a cop and I arrested someone a week before we had any proof at all of any crime, I'd be a shitty cop.

You know that's how it works IRL? You can't just arrest someone with no proof outside of the 24 hour detainment.

I'm not a SJW, I'm not your enemy. I know you come to these threads to enjoy being angry (I serve customers like you, you love coming in and bitching about ten cent difference in prices), but some of us are actually trying to logically figure things out.

Obviously Quin is a piece of shit. The week before there was an evidence of her wrong doing though, why was /v/ so convinced she did it? What evidence did they have?

KEEP IN MIND I AM NOT SAYING SHE IS RIGHT AND ABOVE SCRUTINY.

Did you just completely avoid reading that it's the first step to proving the corruption?

Do you really believe that the majority of news you read runs on more evidence than what's already been collected?

The integrity of the journalists has already been discredited. Now we have to wait for them to admit to that and it will move on from there.

And hey, not only did that occur, but Zoe got a honest to god well meaning feminist group's game dev project shut down because she was angry, and there has been a lot of evidence of her profiting off that and off of the donations for her fucking non-existent game jam. Which, if so, leaves her and anyone else who was in on it with her (I haven't kept too up to date on this, but I believe it was a couple of the guys she fucked and are in the limelight right now) getting completely fucked.

And hey, then there's also her blatant abuse of the DMCA, and the incredible lengths the media went to cover up this shit online in general.

Now there's the whole "hacking" thing going on, which I'm not sure how that's been going, but I'm pretty positive it was Phil Fish and Zoe hacking themselves. I'd like an actual update on that one, too.

Basically, there's a lot more to this whole mess than her sleeping with five guys.

Remember, anonymous is not a single person.

To the degree that her personal character is used to further her career, evidence against her person is relevant. Furthermore, strong evidence of her being a manipulative liar casts prior claims of victim-hood in a different light.

Also, I absolutely HATE the fact that people are giving money to her Patreon. For what? She produces exactly NOTHING. She does not deserve a Patreon.

Therefore, as far as I'm concerned, her life being halfway cyber-ruined is what she is getting paid for. She still has a shitload of people that are supporting her that are "big names" and $2350 per month for sitting on her fat, down-syndrome looking ass. And all she had to do was bait a bunch of people like us into attacking her by stirring up controversy that she was being "harassed" by reading a post on a site she doesn't frequent.

She fucked people for press.

She went against her own SJW values (see: rape definition) to repeatedly lie about cheating to fuck people for press.
She fucked her boss, a married man, for press.
She shut down and attacked another, productive, game jam by cheating and fucking people for press.
She sought out posts from a gated community to play the victim.
She pretended to be doxxed.
She abused DMCA takedown orders to attempt to censor discussion about her cheating to fuck people for press.
She took advantage of Robin William's death to plug her game.

She has a huge list of sins. That's why she's a hated figure.

I'm not saying you're against us here, just that you're misunderstanding things.

What we had before the confession were eyewitness reports on the issue.
While these alone weren't enough to accuse, they were enough to warrant questioning.

If someone reports that they witnessed an individual commit a crime, you best believe that's enough evidence to start questioning.

Not enough to convict, but enough to pursue.

Or do you really think all crimes are solved when hard evidence just flies into the prosecutors' laps?
>>
>>259323734

You illiterate or what? We already had proof. The ex boyfriend's blog post contains tons of it. That they later admitted it just means it's even stronger.

>>259323721

It proves corruption because they refuse to admit that there is a conflict of interest. And more importantly, they censored almost every place where video game news are discussed. They only let up because it reached the point where they couldn't contain it so they let it go and pretended that they weren't censoring it.

If they entire fucking industry censors something because it shows how bad a shape the industry is in, you have proof of corruption. If someone silences others because they're saying things that prove that that someone isn't professional, it's corruption.

There's one thing that DID happen, with full proof and everything, and it's the wizardchan fiasco.

The amount of hypocrisy and bullshit she managed to pull there is very, very low. I don't like the idea of those kind people getting away with shit like that as if nothing happened, and even with other, equally misguided (or simply stupid) supporting her.

You know, Yahtzee Croshaw said something very interesting about this. The current generation that's attempting to be as liberal as possible with things like self and sexual identity are also the ones who are imposing the harshest restrictions on the way people talk and bring massive retribution for people who don't fall in line with their idea of what is right.

The idea of self expression is only allowed when it encompasses the views of the smallest minority. Anything beyond that is oppression.

look at it from their perspective. What they're "covering up" is personal sexual relations. There's no PROOF she corrupted the industry therefore there's no stance for them to allow posts and articles about her to be written. You understand what im saying?

Can we all try to stay on point? The issue isn't whether or not this benefited her in any way shape or form, that's entirely beside the point. The point is simply that in having these relationships, those involved with the game "journalism" world breached pretty basic journalism ethics.

That combined with the absurd damage control, fake DMCA claims on youtube, the industry backlash, and everyone flocking to scream foul over everything (and seemingly framing one's opposition to discredit them) is what we should be focusing on.

If it makes anyone feel better I talked with a friend that programs for Telltale games about Zoe Quinn.

Told me everyone was talking about her and the general consensus was that they believe she was willfully deceiving everyone to make herself a victim and was indeed doing unethical shit to further herself.

Also told me that the gaming industry is deceptively small and that Zoe Quinn is most likely blacklisted at this point from ever getting a real job as a developer.

So she's pretty much doomed to be Indie developer world's pet women developer. Nothing ever more than that.

First, I don't see why they'd be allowed to cover up personal sexual relations anyway. Literally every celebrity and politician gets this shit thrown in their face every time they stray from their marriage.

It's like demanding video proof of a murder when you have fifty eye witnesses, or eye witnesses when you have a security camera recording of it.

The only lives the internet ruins are attention seekers, and those who generally asked for it due to their either naivety or stupidity.

Let's take a few prime examples.
Attention Seekers: Bitches like Applemilk1988 (Emiry) or Jessi Slaughter. They get on the internet, spout a bunch of shit, try to get popular with their drama and the internet fucks with them because let's face it, who wants that shit on (I hate to say this) "our turf"? Another great example? DSP.

People who are naive or generally stupid: Christian Weston Chandler had no intentions of getting much attention his way, but he was naive and pretty much uploaded his entire life on the internet. Needless to say, he went from a drool on shirt sperglord to panty wearing fairy with real bad anger issues.
Stupid people? People who upload their credit card information to a phishing site or donate money to some Nigerian prince, this kind of goes into naivety, but you have to be real stupid not to do a simple google search to see if it's not legit.

No, it's like asking for proof that a man murdered his wife for her inheritance. Your analogy is lackluster.

Zoe Quinn, the indie-dev behind the text-only choose-your-own-adventure game Depression Quest, cheated on her boyfriend with several people. The vindictive boyfriend wrote a substantial blog post about it, including assorted log screencaps (and eventually a youtube video showing some logs in Facebook).

Zoe Quinn, as a somewhat known indie dev (mostly for being allegedly harassed by wizardchan), is held up as a champion of social justice in the indie dev scene. Being outed as a terrible human being was like an early christmas present, and anti-SJW factions have been passing it around. What wasn't expected, however, was the insane attempt to comepletely censor and blackout any discussion of Zoe's infidelity, which only served to rile up the anti-SJWs into a frothing mass of anger and hatred. Resulting in a sever case of the Streisand effect.

Several of the (confirmed) people who Zoe cheated with are significant names in the indie dev scene or game journalism. Though there are no direct reviews from these people, they do give generally positive comments on Zoe, but did not reveal the extent of their relationship.

What we have proven is that there is corruption through the conflict of interest of the journalists she did sleep with.

We can't say what the motives were, as those will likely never be admitted, but the fact that they did sleep with her and still wrote articles about her afterwards that praised and defended her is enough to show that corruption does exist.

JUST A CLARIFICATION:

The only people who have actually been revealed to have been in a relationship with Zoe Quinn are Nathan Grayson, Joshua Boggs, and Robin Arnott.

Nathan Grayson has confirmed it.

Joshua Boggs has basically gone silent, deleting a majority of his digital footprint in the process, most likely to stop people from trying to contact him and his family.

Robin Arnott's been more or less silent throughout.

The other two people who've been fingered are only from assumptions by a couple of /v/-goers playing detective, and one has outright denied being involved (and since he was a musician, it didn't really fit her M.O. anyways). The boyfriend himself intentionally withheld information of them because, from what Zoe told him, they did not know that she was in a relationship at the time, and were thus pretty much innocent.

That's not the point.

Of course Zoe Quinn cheated on her girlfriend. What's unknown is whether she slept with anyone in exchange for positive coverage. All this outrage is about something a Kotaku writer might have done, or might not.

Though personally Ithink that /v/ just wanted to attack a SJW who made a non-game to undeserved praise ,and used Quinn's cheating as an excuse. They secretly wish it was a Gone Home developer who cheated.

Besides, all the ex had at that point was her being a lying, cheating bitch. Which isn't uncommon. Much of this cascaded from there.

Just a hypothetical question here for some people in the thread:

Let's just say Nathan Grayson had been requested to write a piece on Zoe Quinn while he was in a relationship with her.

Do we have any proof beyond his own word that he would have disclosed this information with his supervisor, and potentially, the public? Why, at this stage, should we trust him when he apparently saw no violation of ethics in having this relationship in the first place?

inb4 "But journalists have relationships that could be a conflict of interest all the time!" No, they don't. There are literally thousands of journalists all around the world, in dozens of different fields, working for thousands of different press outfits, who are somehow able to make it through their careers without fucking their sources. When they do, they tend to tell the necessary superiors who either get someone else to cover the story, or make this relationship public knowledge as a disclosure. Why should we treat games journalism any differently?

Because the majority of people don't understand what the issue with the whole situation is, unfortunately. And we do have confirmation on this being true. It's already been admitted by 2 of the guys that they slept with her, the others will follow suit simply due to the insane amounts of pressure being thrown upon them.

In regards to them just fucking and liking the game, yeah, it's possible. But you know what? Once they entered into an intimate relationship like that with her, they lost the ability to write a credible, non-biased article about her and the game. All integrity is lost when a journalist pulls something like this.

She's trying to bring value to the whole gaming community, and they vicisouly rammed her harder than the older neighborhood boy did to my asshole in the third grade.

There, anon, I opened the dictionary for you, and I marked with an asterisk the important parts:

corruption /k??r?p??n/
n
1. the act of corrupting or state of being corrupt
2. moral perversion; depravity*
3. dishonesty*, esp bribery
4, putrefaction or decay
5, alteration, as of a manuscript
6. an altered form of a word

Her cheating on her boyfriend isn't even the case with the most proof. If you've read about the thing that happened at wizardchan and all the false claims she made, while being backed up by these 'journalists' without even asking for proof in her own defense in first place, is all what you need to call it corruption. Besides, you keep walking in circles about that single word instead of looking at the big picture here, which is all this whole thing that has happened on this board, and reddit, and other places is about. I'm not going to spoonfeed the information to you this time because you're being willfully dense. This argument ends here for me.

I don't think there's anyone who doesn't want more accountablility in videogame journalism. But until someone has an actual smoking gun people take money and/or favours for coverage (or worse, positive reviews). There's been a ton of circumstantial shit, look all the way back to Jeff Gerstmann being fired from Gamespot, but nobody has any solid proof of it happening in the public domain. Sadly gaming has a definite lack of whistleblowers.

Any effort to discuss this incident was effectively and thoroughly muffled on multiple site, including Kotaku, RPS, NeoGAF, Reddit, 4chan, etc... multiple people acquainted with her have direct tie with being able to moderate these sites.

I think that's what's getting me the most upset about this whole thing: the way Kotaku and co. are trying to excuse his actions by saying "Well he didn't write an article while he was fucking her, so it's ok."

No, it's not ok. The fact that he saw nothing wrong with sleeping with one of the people he writes about, and HAS written about in the past, is a major ethical violation. It throws nearly everything he wrote about her beforehand into question (such has his coverage for the game in RPS, which showed blatant favouritism towards her game), and it throws the integrity of Grayson himself into question. The fact that he didn't even inform his superior about the relationship in the two to four months between him breaking it off with her and the genie coming out of the bottle is even more damning.

And if people genuinely think that "People get in these relationships all the time in the games industry" is a valid excuse (and I have heard it chanted constantly), then all that proves is how incestuous and too close-knit the games industry really is. Just because having no moral integrity is a supposed 'norm' now doesn't mean it's in any way correct to do it. These are the same people who whine about other industries not taking video games seriously as a means of entertainment and an artform. Well if they're willing for their journalists to be held to such insultingly low standards, then it's never gonna achieve either.

Seeing how you argue, I am convinced that even with proof, you'd still deny it.

Okay, fair enough. I'll play your game.

>>259330262

In here, as actual fucking evidence, we can see that she thinks cheating is akin to rape, but she cheated, this means she labelled herself as a rapist. We don't think she IS' but that she is an hypocrite who put herself in a snaffu in one of the most silly way. already with that in mind, we can see that she is not honest.

Then comes the isue with her boyfriend who confirmed the cheating and talked about her manipulating him for her own end. This portrays her as, well, a manipulator willing to use people for favors. this was confirmed by her afterwards.

>But you don't know women, they say stupid shit when they get emotional!"

Not my fucking problem, We have 3 "witnesses" who testified that they did sleep with her and we have her ex testifying to that as well, only for the "prossecuted" to fucking admit to it. If she lied, it's her own goddamn fault for admitting to a lie that plays AGAINST her.

It was also confirmed that those people she slpet with are all people she had professional ties with and all gave her games exceptional coverage. So, yes, I do agree with you we can't prove that she DID get this exceptional coverage because she slept with them, but given her manipulative and dishonest nature, we can at least imply it.

And so far, yes, we miss one crucial piece of evidence, but if it wasn't for her trying to hide everything and censor people, it would probably blown over, but, now people like Phil Fish who are her supporters have not only crafted a fake hacking of their profile, but they have started bailing the fuck out without a word. Why? Maybe we don't have all the proof we nedd, but we have more than enough to be suspicious.

Bullshit. Discussion before the twitter SJW and misogynist brigades took hold of it was about the implications that journalists could be taking favors for positive press, and not just here but on Reddit and Tumblr too.

You dont need evidence of corruption to prove unethical behaviour (like not pronouncing clear conflicts of interest and nepotism). You need evidence of unethical behaviour. We have shitloads of that.

The very fact that she was sleeping with people while they were writing positive articles about her and voting for her in competitions would get her fired in any other job and possibly prosecuted. for example if she was a musician and slept with a judge of a music competition that she was in, and he then went on to help her win, they would both be charged.
>>
>>259331571
Well, we'll see if thats what happens once this starts hitting the major news cycle.
Because one thing is for sure, no one is getting out of this clean. Even the "journalists" controlling the message on twitter and elsewhere are acting like a bunch of high schoolers ad the rest of the gaming communities eyes are on them watching this.

Theyre basically getting BTFO about 4chan and coming of like a bunch of whiny babies about it. Theres a reason its called protesting too much.
My guess is theyll end up attracting more attention/scrutiny to themselves than they want based on their clearly impulsive actions.

>being this willfully ignorant

The fact that Nathan slept with her, wrote an article about her, and did not disclose his relationship with her is breach of ethical boundaries. The proof that game journalism is overly insular and way too close with particular groups (SJWs and Indie Devs Royalty) can easily be seen from a cursory glance at the social media of the journalist. The fact that all of major sites are in denial that this is an issue just shows how far reaching a problem this is. Without clear ethical boundaries gaming journalism will continue to be combination of shilling for commercial and ideological interests.

The claims of harassment, rape, misogyny, racism, and corruption that video game journalist and yellow journalism sites like gawker publish often have far less evidence than this case.

Look at it this way, Anonymous was a splinter group from /b/ orignally which is arguably the most aggressive/toxic board on 4chan (or was at the time) and they make coordinated and planned attacks on MAJOR targets and the best they can do is take down the front page.

Oh wow. So you're saying is is by default a victim? That's exactly the attitude I expect from you guys.

Because she hasn't proven any of the accusations she made against Wizardchan or "/V/". In fact, as more info comes to light, all the evidence is mounting against her.

>and a bunch of hearsay
When she admitted to something that works against her interests it stops being hearsay.

It's does come off as someone who is either exceptionally stupid or a shill for gawker or zoe or something. Actually it's probably some dipshit SJW who got BTFO of tumblr and decided to spread the shit somewhere else

>If we were trying to have them prosecuted we would need furthre evidence, but we aren't so we dont.
Nothing they did was strictly illegal, as far as I know. Legality and morality, however, are not synonyms.

She needs to substantiate her claims against wizardchan. But do you.
>>
>>259333001
There's admitted proof that Zoe fucked Nathan Grayson. The rest is circumstantial. If what Nathan claims is true and they only had sex AFTER he wrote the articles about DQ, then there's nothing. With regards to actual corruption, there IS no hard evidence. People have to remember that before throwing the word around.

Thanks m8

I was actually kinda dumbfounded by their reaction. TB's stance on the matter was more-or-less completely neutral, admitted that claims by both sides basically just amounted to allegations, and the farthest he went in criticising Quinn and Grayson was "IF they did do these things, then it was a stupid idea. But let's all calm the fuck down and wait for something substantial to prove it".

It's a completely understandable stance to make, yet the SJW's were mad at him because...he wasn't extremist enough for them?

>She'll continue to be a victim until you can prove something.

Wait. She doesn't have to prove why she is a victim; we have to prove why she isn't?

Do you understand how ass backwards that is?
>>
>>259333337
yeah, thats what i'm saying. there are specific laws in other industries about some of the things she did, like the music industry, and if they were applicable to the vidya industry she would be in deep shit, but they arent.

Dude, did you learn everything you know from TV? 3 days is NOTHING.

I don't have any claims against Wizardchan.

You spelled FUCKING CRAZY wrong

>>259333612
She would be in deep shit, the journalists would. Her part is done in all this.
>>
>>259333523
Because the internet has been known to harass girls simply because they are girls. Because it's really not that big of a stretch considering past harassments in the past.

Chances are Zoey Quinn is a cheating slut.

But that's not proof. That shit won't fly in court, if cheating was illegal.

Fuck, even in Saudi Arabia, you have to get like 4 witnesses who saw the act and you guys are already making a verdict.

Don't destroy a woman's reputation unless you have proof.

She better stock up on lube because she owes a whole bunch of favors at this point

Shouldn't there be links on there to Greg Tito saying "We ran the wizardchan story based solely on her word. We didn't need to fact-check it because it's my policy to be supportive and promote kindness." He had a lot of really, really stupid stuff to say last night that just completely shot his (and by extension, his entire website's) journalistic integrity to pieces.
