XK posted:I still don't understand your point behind posting the stats. What were you trying to argue? The only argument I could attach to it is that it would be pointless to contact the police. Otherwise, what does it matter what the percentage is? Because 4chan twits' are treating it as it were Obama's birth certificate, and suggest it would silence the critics if she posts the report. How seriously would they take a piece of documentation that was ~3% of being 'true' (by 4chans own definition). Denim Dude posted:(i do not blame her for taking them seriously, considering an address was involved. you wuold have to be stupid not to.) People were comparing such threats to being yelled at by angry DOTA players so

Alexzandvar posted:It's funny because by publicizing the fact she will leave her house when given a vague death threat over the internet, she has ensured a million more people will send her death threats. Funny how that works. Having a steady supply means you always have a death threat when you need one.

well in that there is a .00000000000000001 chance that anything would have happened (i made that number up). her name is public. it is not hard to get her address. by not hard i mean probably free and not illegal at all. so its a little worse than some rear end in a top hat telling you he is going to kill you on dota. maybe like...10% worse? im not good with numbers

To remind people who think the whole dramatic leaving their house thing is fair, literal 13 year olds were threatened with death threats on twitter and handled it better. It is 100% undeniably for attention and to even somewhat pretend otherwise just means you're a massive sucker that believes anything.

How seriously would they take a piece of documentation that was ~3% of being 'true' (by 4chans own definition). How do you get that it has a 3% chance of being true? Because there's only a 3% chance of them finding someone? As was stated before, 4chan knows as well as anybody about being anonymous on the internet. Whether anyone ends up caught or not is irrelevant in regards to whether it's true or not. The 3% number is completely arbitrary and essentially plucked out of the air by you, apparently a number for sexual violence against women. It would be much more appropriate to use a number for terroristic threats. I'm also pretty sure that public figures who experience threats on the regular are told by authorities to not publicize the threats because it makes them more likely, and fucks up the investigation because the exact nature and words of the threat are now public knowledge.
