This is not appropritate. No one has all the facts and what everyone is going on is what a bunch pissed off lonely pervs say on 4chan and on reddit. The industry is hostile enough to woman gamers, this kind of baseless shaming does not help any. It has nothing to do with games, game sales, or the price of gaming so I don't see the point in discussing this. A woman had a relationship with a man and then a bunch of perceived lonely woman haters bashed a woman that didn't deserve it simply because she was a woman in the gaming industry. /thread.

Yeah the gaming subs on reddit are in meltdown.

And the reason that this is getting played down and attempted to be covered up is because it involves a woman. She will be the victim in all this by tomorrow guranteed


It's really disheartening to see someone get away with something as horrible as this simply because she can say she has depression and twitter is giving her PTSD. She'll become a martyr like Anita Sarkeesian.

 

Hey, isn't that Chad from Screwattack.com??

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

The PTSD comment is disgusting frankly and typical Social Justice Warrior bullshit.  I don't know what world these people are living in.

How people can defend her is beyond belief. Cliff Blesinski, creator of Gears of War just brushed it off saying it happens all the time in other industries.  AS IF THAT JUSTIFIES IT??

Thought the number was 29% of women have sex with someone to get higher up at work or other work related benefits...  It is an other way of being very nice to someone (like giving things away or invited for a dinner or to your company ) to get better ratings/publications about your production...  Never happened in your life?

That's not the same thing at all. First, she's using her body which gives her an inherent unfair advantage compared to other genders. Second, SHE'S CHEATING ON HER BOYFRIEND WITH FIVE GUYS.

No it is not, if you want you can try to use your body to fuck with them, some will maybe interested,  and cheating on her boyfriend is not of her business. That is a private problem.

It's actually quite easy. Everyone defending her is another victim of her sex craze.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Is having sex with multiple partners an offense to people? I don't even think there is a proof that she used sex to get benefits from Kotaku.
I mean, I would understand the rage if she had offended men in general.
I wouldn't use this as an excuse to be a d**k bag towards women.

I knew there would be people like you trying to dismiss all of this simply as "oh those loser virgin nerds, they're just misogynistic loners."
The issue isn't necessarily that she cheated on her boyfriend with 5 Men including a married man,  the issue is that she is using her body to get ahead in the industry and that she has been lying about getting hacked and doxxed.

So no, this is not "lonely pervs" trying to shame a woman. This is honest gamers that care about the industry trying to shed light on a horrible practice that is plaguing journalism.

How does proof of corruption in the games industry not have anything to do with gaming?

This woman cheated on her boyfriend with five guys to get recognition and praise she didn't deserve.  And the types of guys that will defend whatever a woman does, aka you, is the main reason she will get away it.

She is an important female role model in the industry. She stands for feminist ideals and the fact that she would cheat on her boyfriend and lie about it makes it seem as if she is disingenuous.

You don't have all of the facts. All you have is hearsay and misconceptions from others. It is absolutly about lonely pervs. Normal people with normal relationships DGAF about this. This is not about honest gamers caring that is BS. This is about MRA's finding and using an excuse to bash woman and nothing more. FFS look at the comments on reddit and 4chan, hell even some here. It's so sad its almost funny.

To who? Who chose her to be in that position?

Feminist ideals limit female to one partner?
