#Gamergate goes off the deep end

[viper37]

No, I think Paradox OT was eurowennie/y personified, lots of super opinionated just post-teenagers with theoretical knowledge of, but not too much experience of the real world.

wich is about what most of us where 14 years ago?

[Barrister]

Mrs B knows about this place, registered here like 10 years ago, but thinks the stuff we talk about is boring.

I'm having to get caught up on all this.  I had no idea what gamergate is or was.  Anyway man, that Quinn girl is homely.  Who would sacrifice their professional integrity to sleep with her??

2/10, Spice.  Try harder.

2/10 on what?

[merithyn]

Did we ever have more than 2 or 3 here at a given time?  How many have we had total?  4??

Charliebear, Princesa, CF, Korea, Brazen, me, Korea's friend (can't remember her name), and a handful of others over the years, but I'm terrible with names

No shit.  It's basically a locker room here.  I don't know why any woman in her right mind would want to hang out with us, though I am grateful that Meri and Brazen are sticking through it

You're all not so bad. Some are... not so nice... as others, but in general, you're all pretty decent fellows. It may be like a locker room around here, but at least it doesn't smell like one, and only a handful of guys feel a need to try to make it a "men only" room.

I believe Quinn admitted to having a relationship with a game reviewer from Kotaku (but, of course, so what - consenting adults and all that), but agree that the sex-for-reviews thing is proven untrue since the fellow never wrote a review of her game.

Yeah, but so what? People break up all the time and people have sex with people all the time. There's no scandal there, and frankly, who fucks whom in SF's indie game dev scene is not really anyone else's business.

Now, Jake, let's not overreach.  It is the State's business.

2/10 on what?

Sadly, no.

Korea's friend (can't remember her name)

Ugh. Just remembering that she exists makes me feel stupider.

I was 14.

God, I'm sorry, Jacob. This isn't going to go well for them, if history holds. Here's to hoping that no one "outs" their personal information.

We're working on getting the information taken down ASAP, but who knows. Some of the people on the list have already gotten abuse as a result of this.

[Jacob]

This the group Jacob?

Nope, this is stuff that happened today. I'm not going to give specifics, because I frankly don't want to spread the information any further. I'll tell you about it over beer when you're in town next.

[Razgovory]

Man, It took me a while to figure out they weren't talking about the Swedish digital download service.

Frau Spiess would die of boredom here unless every thread was about David Bowie, fashion, or Walking Dead. 

A few years ago she became concerned that it was a gay forum because she kept seeing rufweed's (?) avatar when she walked by.

Still have no idea what you're talking about.

OMG was that the "shake that laffy taffy" girl??  I remember her now.
