i think i've found a justifiable use of the ignore feature for pagancow since it's comparable to ad-blocking otherwise

yeah basically the major game sites are an extortion scheme either the game companies pay them enough money, either in advertising or just straight payola or their games get less than 8.0 (aka the kiss of death) when you get a reviewer that actually tries to evaluate the games objectively, they'll get ridden out on a rail if they don't quid the pro quo

Schadenboner posted:So would you say that, actually, it's about ethics in games journalism? at least for the big game sites, there never was any, it's just straight graft and now we have a whole herd of boys who think the solution is by actively and aggressively hating women because it's the only method they see of controlling their clubhouse now that the games industry is so huge it's further not a coincidence that most of them are computer touchers

LastInLine posted:b/c of this thread i was trying to think of where i actually do see advertising -going to the grocery store -seeing other people's clothing/possessions -looking at the products you own in your own home people who say they "don't see ads" or "advertising doesn't work on them" are just generally oblivious, not some sort of willpower overlords

LastInLine posted:i thought about the grocery store but there i figure its advertising by necessity like they have to stock the shelves somehow so ofc if they can get paid to front certain brands theyll do so and if they didnt get paid well theyd still be fronting something you're very wrong advertising is everywhere unless you literally never leave your home and make everything you own from scratch brands are passive advertising, and even then you still see ads but they may not be liminal to you but that doesn't mean you don't see them and they don't have an effect on you

oh sweet thanks for the dictionary definition of a word i didn't know we were in d&d the point is you're seeing them and they're influencing you whether you choose to acknowledge that fact or not if you don't want to see them, then i suggest you buy some land in the middle of nowhere and start watching some primitive technology youtubes

LastInLine posted:we arent but when youre using the language completely incorrectly its unlikely well find any common ground in discussion. your sentence did literally mean the opposite of your intended meaning after all i believe that thinking and then furthermore stating you don't see ads is incredibly naive and displaying a general obliviousness, as aforementioned i also think you stated as much because you were trying to display a level of unearned superiority because of your righteous lack of ad-seeing
