Their PR person (Maya Kramer/@legobutt) is selling "Cuties killed gamers" shirts, the site shows that she sold 260. http://teespring.com/cuties These idiots self-destructed for this poo poo. They really do coordinate through her, 4chan dug it up pretty easily since none of these people thought they were doing anything wrong, so they didn't cover their tracks.


Legobutts is the person who doxxed The Fine Young Capitalists and tweeted out his personal details to Zoe and her army of twitter users. Now she's selling shirts.

wasn't there supposed to be a large protest at that gaming con this weekend?

There was only one person in the thread that said that was a thing and when asked for links discussing it, couldnt provide any. Also they made a big point of being friends with Phil Fish's wife.

So most likely it was all bullshit.

Holy poo poo. This is the Maya Kramer PR person's Twitter. Look at the date:

What conspiracy? You're crazy.

Since the Wizardchan stuff happened way back in December, Im sure they already had the slogan in mind as being kind of considered as a quasi Sarkeesian entity to the gaming world. Plus that date is still 3 days after Thezoepost blog went up. No conspiracy there.

Also, why did Deadspin aka Gawker Media straight up post Kate Upton nude photos that were hacked illegally directly on their site?

It seems like a really lovely thing to do. No, it doesnt matter that Justin Verlander was in them.

lol you can't step in it more than when accusing someone of being a white basement dweller and finding out that he's a black army guy

do some of these video games people think that posting a lot on twitter counts as having a social life? I'm sure most of the people railing about fat neckbeards aren't exactly paragons of physical fitness and social butterflies themselves

He was trolling. Him and the other guy just changed their twitter descriptions to "Mod of Polygon.com" and made extremely over the top tweets at people telling them he was going to ban every anime avatar at his site, laughing at people for being 30 years old and still playing videogames, etc.

People start furiosuly tweeting Polygon to have him removed. Riled up people are really gullible.

I definitely did not spend hundreds of hours beating Super Mario Bros 3, without using a single powerup or warp whistle, just so Bowser could ultimately triumph using the tiny seeds of discord he sowed 25 years ago.

I posted a couple days ago how Deadspin aka. Gawker Media posted Kate Upton's illegally hacked nudes directly on their site because professional pitcher Justin Verlander was in them.

http://deadspin.com/justin-verlander-and-his-butt-appear-in-celebrity-nude-1629145772

They didnt think anything was wrong with this and left them up for 4 or so days until Kate Upton's lawyers contacted them about it to take them down.

Except they had written another scummy article where they took the exif data and posted a timeline of where and when they were taken along with a bunch of the hacked pictures. At least one Kate Upton nude is in there (an multiple verlander nudes) . Still on the site.

Justin Verlander posted:

“I’m not going to comment on my personal life,” Verlander said in the Tigers’ clubhouse before tonight’s game against the Cleveland Indians. “I never have, and I never plan on it. I keep my personal life personal.

Sounds familiar.

TLDR: Gawker continues to be lovely blog journalism that only takes the moral high ground when its in their best interest
