TinTower posted:Raped at least three women. Dang, guy had big hands in two indie games I really liked. You'd think it'd be easy to not be a complete garbage person, but somehow these people continue to disappoint. I was recently part of a small game community where the lead dev/admin had a real issue with constantly creeping on any female users, especially ones he knew were underage. As did his inner circle of friends. Anyone who took issue with this would get publicly banned for the smallest infraction, to the point where even posting about posts those people made was an insta-ban. Even after cutting my losses and bailing I still occasionally get a friend or two DMing me about how it's getting worse, somehow. Nerds in positions of power over other people are the worst.

Sounds like you’re saying a member of BTS would do a worse job than Cameron, May, or Boris. An inanimate object would do a better job than that trio.

They want women, believe they are owed sex and affection, but they also hate and fear them. Women "intruding" on nerd hobbies just serves as a reminder to them of how they have been rejected, so they lash out.

zoux posted:I worry that she's the norm and most never speak out because one million incel gamers will devote 40 hours a week to ruining your life. It's not just a problem with sexual assault and other forms of abuse. It's incredibly hard to speak out about basically anything in gaming centric circles because capital-G Gamers will melt the gently caress down over the most minute criticisms. Even if it's something as simple as "Can we maybe stop trying to pressure literal children into purchasing micro transactions for this game." There is no molehill too small for them to line up to die on, especially if it means defending a corporate entity from someone on the internet saying things might be cooler if they were different. So it reaches a point where having an opinion on literally anything can get you death threats and abusive messages spamming your inbox from the reddit chud crowd, I can only imagine the fresh hell it is to actually speak up about something like sexual assault and directly name the prolific creator who did it, and I can't really blame other people for not wanting to deal with that next level garbage fire in their lives, either.

Gamers get mad at casual players when they perceive that the casuals are getting in their way of enjoying the game. Gamers get mad at women just for existing, and sometimes for not existing.

Or indeed belittle the actual vile harrassment these fuckwads throw at women online. I just thought that the kind of arsehole who gets mad about girls invading his super special treehouse, is the same kind of arsehole that gets super mad about someone liking the same thing he likes, but liking it wrong/not enough. But all the responses make sense. Because girls are icky, and exist only to be hated and feared.

"The only reason women don't like me is because everyone knows girls don't play games and they hate gamers. That's it, and no other reason." is no longer a functioning excuse for someone who places a shitload of their self worth into sex and their lack of it. All those nasty Chads and Stacys and MOMS play games too now, which is where I think the whole 'filthy casuals' thing actually becomes relevant, because if they're not playing real games unlike real gamers, then the excuse still holds up. But of course casuals are killing the industry or whatever.

Also, Zoe didn't start Gamergate. It happened in reaction to her. Well, as much as a general reactionary anti-woman movement could be said to be started by the actions of one person. More idiots on social media! One where both members are dolts.

If you can only play a few hours a week and not dedicating your paycheck to supporting your lifestyle, then get the gently caress out you casual piece poo poo.

Only difference is that for a martial arts competition you train hard and eat well. For Smash Bros competition you stay up all night browsing alt-right forums looking for the latest racist memes to yell at your opponent.

How do these "gamer is an oppressed minority" people exist when gaming is several times bigger than movies as a business? eSports is regularly shown on national TV broadcasts. Gaming is huge. Are they willingly saying that "gaming is more mainstream than tv and movies combined, but being a sexist racist is a minority"?

Yes, they are saying that “gamers” as a subset of “people who play video games” is a minority. They are the true gamers, the stewards of the hobby, the gatekeepers.
