I can't wait to see what kind of ridiculous copy pastas KiA will write out in response to this.

Edit: lol it begins

Oh look, a sub below 1k subscribers throwing pebbles at our feet.

Hello there, insignificant whiners of reddit. How's the weather in your safe space? Oh, that's right! Weather is a social construct because patriarchy or something, right?

Silly me, I made the mistake of assuming you're totally not a bunch of emotionally stunted child soldiers of social advantageousness. I say that instead of Social Justice because "justice" implies that some semblance of fairness exists in your reasoning, when in reality we all know you're not after equality, you're really after revenge.

Years of self-inflicted guilt and maybe some daddy issues have spawned a small (sub-1k readers small) group of extremely vocal internet shut-ins who just can't operate on the internet without making sure those people doing those things over that have nothing to do with you have to stop what they're doing so you can stop being offended on behalf of people who don't give a fuck that you're offended for them.

So yes, trifling little sub-1k reader subreddit, senpai noticed you. Go ahead and get your little nips hard with delight as you run off to your Tumblr blogs to complain about how the big bad KiA harassed (read: disagreed with) you.

We're a group of people who will sit for hours, days, even weeks on end performing some of the hardest, most mentally demanding tasks. Over, and over, and over all for nothing more than a little digital token saying we did.

We'll punish our selfs doing things others would consider torture, because we think it's fun.

We'll spend most if not all of our free time min maxing the stats of a fictional character all to draw out a single extra point of damage per second.

Many of us have made careers out of doing just these things: slogging through the grind, all day, the same quests over and over, hundreds of times to the point where we know evety little detail such that some have attained such gamer nirvana that they can literally play these games blindfolded.

Do these people have any idea how many controllers have been smashed, systems over heated, disks and carts destroyed 8n frustration? All to latter be referred to as bragging rights?

These people honestly think this is a battle they can win? They take our media? We're already building a new one without them. They take our devs? Gamers aren't shy about throwing their money else where, or even making the games our selves. They think calling us racist, mysoginistic, rape apologists is going to change us? We've been called worse things by prepubescent 10 year olds with a shitty head set. They picked a fight against a group that's already grown desensitized to their strategies and methods. Who enjoy the battle of attrition they've threatened us with. Who take it as a challange when they tell us we no longer matter. Our obsession with proving we can after being told we can't is so deeply ingrained from years of dealing with big brothers/sisters and friends laughing at how pathetic we used to be that proving you people wrong has become a very real need; a honed reflex.

Gamers are competative, hard core, by nature. We love a challange. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challange us. You're not special, you're not original, you're not the first; this is just another boss fight.

Typical KiA/GG-strategy:

Instead of attacking and refuting their opponents' arguments, they simply insult those who don't share their hateful opinions or try to come up with reasons/lies why the other side's arguments don't have to be taken seriously.

[–]drhead 30ポイント31ポイント  (4子コメント)

I'm actually surprised they didn't mention the /r/planetside brigade. I'll just explain it here.

SRD thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/SubredditDrama/comments/391i2d/massive_brigade_from_rkotakuinaction_on_top/

Basically, what happens is this:

  1. Someone on /r/planetside posts a picture of a skirt they made with an insignia of one of the in-game factions on it.

  2. Because this is reddit, a large amount of the commenters accuse OP of being transgender/a crossdresser. These comments are removed and the commenters banned. The moderators claim more moderator actions were taken in that thread alone than in the entire past 2 years. For reference, this incident happened a year ago, and Planetside 2 is only 3.5 years old.

  3. One user attempts to contest their ban. Their punishment ends up being a permanent ban with an option of being unbanned if they write a 500 word essay. They end up posting an edited version of the modmail to multiple subreddits, which ends up spreading to KiA. Edited modmail, full modmail. Notice how he removed anything that makes him look bad.

  4. The fallout of the incident. The most solid evidence of brigading is where one moderator looked at the thousands of modmails sent during the week. Basically thousands of modmails calling transsexualism a mental illness (KiA isn't transphobic!), sent from a group composed 70% of 0 day old accounts and 30% KiA users (We're a free speech and ethics subreddit! We don't brigade!). Other than that, Magres's comment history was downvoted into the negative hundreds (But don't worry, I've tried pointing this out to KiA users and they've assured me that it was just people from /r/all! KiA users would never brigade!). There was also massive downvoting of several threads.

Oh yes, and in my dirt collection I also have a recent case of someone directly asking people on KiA to invade a thread by PM. I also like how the thread that was being invaded was not linked to in any of the subs people accuse of brigading and GGers were still heavily downvoted. It was linked to by SRD and removed within less than an hour for being surplus drama, and it was already downvoted well before being linked.

Sorry to break the circle queef, posting this here in case the butthurt KidsInAction see it : has anything at all actually happened or been done in the name of ethics in video game journalism in recent months? Outside of KiA perhaps? Does GG have even the slightest real world impact?

I know everybody here probably just wants to reply No, but for serious, as someone who fell for the ethics thing and defended GG once upon a time, I want to know. Because if it's true GG is dead or never got anything done, that just goes to show how pathetic, useless, lazy and insignificant these dumbass bigots are, and then I won't even feel the need to pay attention to them anymore... unlike, say, The_Drumpf users who represent a portion of a population that is about to elect a fucking disaster.

[–]a_fagetfuck reddit tbh 66ポイント67ポイント  (1子コメント)

IMO the intense GamerGate reaction basically backfired completely and legitimized feminist criticism of video games like Sarkeesians' video series among game devs. With Assassin's Creed Syndicate's Evie Frye, and Overwatch's Zarya, it's clear AAA games are attempting to make video games a more inclusive, less banal experience

[–]paulchoixqcdolan pls stop 16ポイント17ポイント  (0子コメント)

That is indeed the impression I'm getting as time goes by. I just want to make sure it is correct before I can allow myself to shamelessly rub it into their reactionary faces. The alt right is so goddamn pathetic, the only thing it can ever manage is a bunch of pro-KKK protests and posting memes about a millionnaire running for office. Their failure translates into my optimism about the future, I just wouldn't want to hate on anybody - if they exist - who is actually fighting for ethics in journalism, which remains a very very big and worrisome issue for me. (I just don't give a fuck if it's about video games, I mean for christ's sake Fox News still exists and these jackasses cry because there are dishonest video games reviews)

[–]LiberalParadiseThey targeted comedians. Comedians.[S] 25ポイント26ポイント  (1子コメント)

Gamergate accomplished something. It made game devs realize that there are a ton of angry sexist manchildren who play their video games, which is why so many of them now make efforts to be inclusive to a wider variety audience.

They're people who masturbate to anime for 18 hours a day and spend the other 6 whining about how it's not fair that they don't have a romantic/sexual partner.

These are people who think that sex and romance are human rights like air and water, and would be in favor of legislation that literally gives them sex slaves.

Oh, also, they idolize Elliot Rodgers. You know, that guy that murdered several women because of his sexual frustration? Yup. A picture of him is the only thing that they put in their banner.

Well, no, not really. And it's sad, because the truth is there ARE problems in gaming journalism. Publishers threaten to remove their ads if they aren't given good reviews, for example.

But, you know that bullshit eron made up about zoe sleeping with a game reviewer? The one where any relationship that could be proven happened months after her game got mentioned in one of his lists?

Well, THAT'S where "It's about ethics" came from. That's where most of the rumors about the gaming press came from, the others being the "Gamers don't have to be your audience, gamers are over" articles that they call the "Gamers are dead" articles.

You got fooled. But it's ok, it happens to the best of us. As long as you know what you did and as long as you're improving as a person, you're fine.

lol can't believe this shit is still going on. it's beyond ridiculous how much time, energy, and words are spent talking about this on their terms. like, when a kid picks his boogers, plays with it and eats it in public, no one would actually engage the kid on some assuming-good-faith equanimous dialogue debating the merits of booger-play and consumption. you would just tell the kid hey, stop picking your nose and eating your goddamn boogers. good god lmao.

the real conversation should be about why are they such fucking losers and what are some ways in which they can stop being such fucking losers.
