Maybe. I don't like either side as I said.

Why exactly were GG so angry at Rapp? Didn't she even say she had wanted the boob slider in Xenoblade? 

No idea - was GG even involved in this? This is probably the work of SJWs if she said that about the boob slider in Xenoblade. Or SJWs going after her for comments about pornography in Japan.

Apparently yes, some idiots decided to continually harass her and bring up every one of her old tweets.

I hate the internet, she's been fired already, these people should stop going through her private life and posting it all over the Internet. Poor woman, it's ridiculous and has nothing to do with anyone but herself.

Maybe I'm getting too old and have pre-historic thoughts, but how in the world is it possible that there's not a single comment about the woman's attractiveness?

I'm very dissappointed.

PS: And yeah, she's hot. WOULD BANG. (Sorry if my masculine instincs are too unappropriate for this topic)

Because it's considered sexist to comment on women's physique. You can comment on men's though.

She didn't even have anything to do with the precious Xenoblade boob slider and even said she wanted the feature in. 

So basically these morons dragged this woman's private life out in front of everyone thinking she had censored their precious video game for basically no reason. 

Fuck GG. They don't represent me and I've been a fan of games probably longer than a lot of these idiots have been alive.

Boy, just stop it already. That girl got fired. That was what those idiots wanted but now that they have it, they still can't let it rest? They still don't have enough? She handles her sexuality different than you, so what? If some people could stop thinking that sex was the devil's work, that would be great.

You're being ridiculous. Sex has absolutely no place in the business world. They had every right to fire her and that's that. And this isn't about sexuality at all...dont know why you brought that up.



I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.

You weren't sure it was them earlier but now you are? Seems to me like you bought into Kotaku and its ilk's witch hunt.

Yeah, i'm expecting a lot of the people that defended her are going to now try and change their agenda to something like "Nintendo is slut-shaming now" or "Why should it matter what she does on the side if it doesn't affect her actual job?", despite the fact that she was PR for a family-friendly company while doing this on the side apparently. 

But basically she was attacked by a bunch of GGers who made it a point to dig up her private life because they thought she was the reason Xenoblade's boob slider was out, when in fact she had nothing to do with that and as it turns out is pretty sexually liberal about such isuses was even for the damn boob slider that GGer had a stick up their ass about being removed. So basically they attacked her and dug up her private life for no reason getting her fired.

A bunch of stupidity all around it seems like. 

That whole GamerGate thing does suck for them to go after her like that, or anyone for that matter, but Nintendo did already say that the GG stuff wasn't the reason they fired her, it was because of her second job.

The only difference is that the whole GamerGate thing is what lead Nintendo to finding out about this second job that they might not have otherwise known about for a while, which is why they probably decided to fire her.  It still doesn't change the fact that she shouldn't have had a second job like that while being a PR SPOKESPERSON for a big family-friendly company though. 

Even if lets say Gamergate never went after her and none of this would have came out recently, it still doesn't change the fact that she *might* have had a second job as a prostitute on the side while working there, which isn't something she should have been doing in the first place. Nintendo still would have most likely fired her reguardless of who brought it up to them. 

I'm not taking sides here in anyway, and I don't agree with what GG is doing at all, i'm just saying that I don't think they, or anyone, is deserving of taking all the blame in this case for her getting fired. It was a case of several people's actions that lead to this coming out.

I'm pretty sure if she didn't have that second job she wouldn't have been fired because Nintendo themselves said that.

Considering the topmost harassing Twitter tweet on her feed doesn't seem inclined to claim opposition to GG, aaaand there's an article relating to the original source saying that 'the SJWs' are trying to deny the 'recent revelations' it does seem probable that GamerGate (or, rather, 'people totally not tied to GamerGate!') are the catalyst.  Well, that and the article in the OP referred to her as 'Zoe Quinn 2.0,' and it's pretty blunt who was the driving force during 'Zoe Quinn 1.0.'

Aren't we talking about articles that tell she had been a call girl? How is this not sex related? It's about shaming this girl in every possbile way and yep, her sex life is a perfet fit for those purposes. I'm not sure if we even know for certain why exactly she had been fired in the first place, btw, the official statement is way to vague.
