Current You'd think after like 15 years I'd stop feeling like a fraud when writing posts but I still do which is both a statement on my self confidence and a compliment to how good my partners are as writers

@Sagittarius Aliens, man.
The important question is which Lethal Weapon is her favorite

and she better not say 4
<Snipped quote by Dinh AaronMk>

That was what I always associated it with, and it seems funny. Like, was there ever integrity in video game journalism? That's been associated with companies buying off reviews since I can remember. At least in the scandal that started that whole affair the journalist in question managed to get some puss in the bargain.


People that write about video games want to feel like they're doing something worthwhile instead of just typing up a low effort puff piece about a bit of promotional footage on Youtube. It's funny when some of them try to act like they're Woodward and Bernstein like when that Kotaku guy thought he was breaking the big story that Fallout 4 was a game being made.

There are no standards in video game journalism because video game journalism is a joke field and I say this as someone who has written way too many stories/essays about dumb video games over the years which makes me about as qualified as any given video game journalist.

they're all fucking bloggers
@Rin Works for the Shokan. Works for Sheeva.
Go back to the part where you wrestled on the floor. Let's unpack that.
@Snagglepuss89 HannibalxWine?
@Tulpa Every group has its black sheep, and that's not limited to things like GG. Even the more progressive groups out there have people that do far more harm than good. I don't ally myself with either because I think the entire thing has become two sides just flinging shit at each other and seeing what sticks. It's a constant series of back and forth and "Look at what GG did" "We didn't do it, look at what you did" and no one cares how things started anymore. It's why I called GG a boogeyman now because the people that use it on social media are using it as a catch-all for anyone that harasses, large or small. I supported GG back when I still thought there was a chance that video game bloggers could go legit but hahahahah that's a pipe dream if ever there was one. Of course I don't agree when people say things like "this bitch deserves to die" on comments or whatever but I also don't agree when someone goes "this fag deserves to die" or whatever. Harassment goes both ways and it sucks for anyone who is a victim of it, legitimate or otherwise. Once people start saying "lol you're a white male you can't have opinions" and "lol you're a woman what do you know" then it's just ridiculous and makes both sides of this way too long conflict seem absolutely insane.

And I again must stress that I don't engage in inflammatory things. I try to be nice to pretty much everyone here when I'm not making absolutely terrible jokes that get pity laughs from people. I'm here to RP and sometimes discuss more of my nerdier pursuits like games and yuri themed animes, not insult others or be inflammatory.

Do I support Allison Rapp's harassment? No. But I also don't support the disingenuous 'reporting' that websites did where they said it was a smear campaign that got her fired and not her moonlighting as a glamour model in direct violation of Nintendo's employment policies. I am totally fine with her doing said glamour shots, but I don't see her as the victim here. I'm not getting involved in her views on under aged sexuality because that's a can of worms that should remained closed.

As for making my points with less bile, friendo I've never made points in this discussion. I just watched from the sidelines, made a comment about my ethnicity, and now look where we are. If my second post in this chain came off as inflammatory or whatever it's because I took issue with the whole 'I've encountered you before and all you really do is say inflammatory remarks so it's not like someone could even have a reasonable discussion with you if they tried.' thing. Because until very recently all I ever did on this site was post in RP threads and hover in my sub tab and I felt I had to defend myself for something I don't do.
Do you have like food stored there because that's a literal game changer.
@Tulpa Are you talking to me here because 'inflammatory remarks' is not something I do. Like at all. Like ever. Or are you talking to Ebonsquire? Either way, doubt that inflammatory remarks are in either forte.

Thing is though, assuming you are speaking to me here, I don't brush shoulders with literal Nazis or white supremacists. Racists? I mean, my parents never had anything nice to say about our Hispanic neighbors growing up but I like to think I didn't learn from their example. And yes, I am always up for a good discussion but not if the discussion amounts to "Everyone involved in a group is a Nazi/racist/white supremacist" because then that's like saying every single Muslim is a radical and every Hispanic in America is here illegally. There's literally no point in ever discussing this matter with you because you've written off the entire group as nothing more than women hating neo-Nazis who spend their days in a basement masturbating to Twitter death threats. You probably think Nintendo was wrong to fire Allison Rapp or that she deserves Patreon donations because she lost her job.

You came into this thread declaring how you're a feminist. Hey, guess what, I am too. Maybe we can get together and talk about how progressive you are because you support equal rights.

But no, I suspect you'll reply with "You're not even worth it. You're a troll and you support Hitler you fascist scum" or something. Maybe toss in a clever little gif and retreat away until someone else comes and dangles the bait in front of your eyes.
@Ebonsquire At this point I assume anyone who decides to go "No I'm right you're not interested in debate" whenever someone clearly shows that they are willing to have a discussion is a troll.

But then I also assume most everyone is a troll so who knows.
