GamerGate entrepreneur Steve Sawyer revealed as a liar and con artist (self.Drama)

HarrietPotter が 投稿

tl;dr Steve Sawyer is a GamerGate personality who was involved in several unsuccessful business ventures within the movement. He has been fairly consistent as a source of drama from the beginning, but more on that later. The former VP of his website RevueLabs recently came forward and dished the dirt on Steve and his shady behavior. The allegations against him are as follows:

  • He mainly hired attractive women at RevueLabs, both as PR and as eye candy. He saw them as his personal harem, and became bitter and enraged when they rejected his advances.

  • He did not pay his VP, and spent her money rather than his own on his business.

  • He accepted a bunch of money for shirts that he never even had manufactured, and made only the barest effort to refund it.

  • When GG became a liability, he forced his VP to write a letter distancing the company from the movement. After a predictable angry backlash from GG, he then distanced himself from the letter he had forced her to write and let her take all the blame.

  • He is controlling and uses threats of suicide to keep his employees in line.

  • He killed radio nero by being generally impossible to work with.

  • After destroying radio nero, he tried to start a rip-off replacement show that also failed.

  • He's now attempting to sell off his floundering business that was built on the funding and hard work of others.

As of today, RevueLabs is down. It is reported to have been hacked.

MORE BACKGROUND on Steve Sawyer

As I mentioned, Steve has been a fairly reliable drama cow since he arrived on the GamerGate scene several months ago. Among his previous dramatic output have been:

1) a tearful video lamenting that his integrity within the gaming industry and refusal to "toe the line" has cost him jobs and relationships.

2) a bizarre story in which he claims to have been assaulted and kicked out of his home by furious anti-GG feminists who called him a "worthless male".

  • it's worth noting that no evidence has ever been presented that this incident actually took place, even though it was supposedly caught on film and investigated by the police. Steve's friend tried to vouch for him in KiA and became increasingly nettled that his word alone was not considered sufficient proof.

    • Also worth noting that a throwaway in KiA has disputed Steve's account, and claims to be offering the full story to anyone who emails them.

3) multiple, repeated attempts at soliciting donations from GG. Most of these requests were made by Steve's friends on his behalf, and supposedly he had to be "convinced" to accept them.
