I just want to remind everyone that this whole thing started because some dude decided to publically deride his slut of an ex. Imagine Zoe worked at Goldman Sachs or something, now that would own.

Slanderer posted:good thing i posted that second pic then Good to know that the standard of evidence needed to claim "TRANS" status is a steam profile. Would make the en troon thread more entertaining atleast. Sorry Xir you may have been on hormones for 2 years and have had multiple surgeries but come back when you update your steam profile.

For what I understood it should be something like facebook's algorithm: it will prefer showing you posts from people you liked with content that you liked and to push aside people you did not act upon before. It's poo poo because it makes an echo chamber of your own interests, or even worse, your tantrums. yes i also remember when the gia was relevant twelve years ago

Al Borland posted:Wow how did it get so widespread? Because it also had to do with her loving competition judges/journalists so that caught people's attention. Then gaming blogs covered it up and said anyone who talks about it just hates women and proceeded to ban anyone talking about it from their comments. Then bloggers made hilarious articles all at the same time about "gamers are dead". The whole thing is just hilarious and bizarre.

It's just two nerds talking bollocks about ISIS when are they getting onto important topics like the fall of civilisation in the form of gamersgate? Edit: lol they are praising David Cameroon and imagine he has the political clout to fight ISIS in a ground war when he has barely enough support to open a supermarket.

Ben Spurr at one time used to identify as a woman. He no longer does but he pretended he still did in order to deflect criticism from his beat up Anita game he made. That's what people are talking about when they say he isn't really trans.

precision posted:declaring "gamers are over" after this, which is a situation that most people have had to deal with amongst friends or friends of friends (because people are awful and cheat on each other and take advantage of each other ALL THE TIME), seems like someone declaring that Irish people no longer exist because a few IRA nuts sent angry letters to the Post the IRA is right, and so are the gamers. makes you think.
