Any real gamer doesnt give a shit about any of this.

That is true, they're too busy playing games.

Someone would make millions off of ad revenue if they would make a "translate this twitter page for me" website.

Every time someone posts a twat pic I feel like I am reading 5 seconds of an hour long conversation that's already 45 minutes in.

[BaneTheBrawler]

EXACTLY THIS.

I think I love this man's show. We might not always agree on everything but he always is very thorough and fair.
So glad he got involved in GG just because it brought me to his show.

After 2 years, Brad Wardell finally gets an apology from somebody (notably still not Kotaku) who spread the false sexual harassment allegation against him.

Some writer tweets out "Hope they re-open the death camps for everyone who is part of #GamerGate", gets his author page deleted from a site that used to employ him because who the fuck would want to associate themselves with that.

Here's his response.

Highlights: "#GamerGate would have deserved every molecule of that hydrogen-cyanide. You probably think I have a lot of chutzpah, saying that. But read my explanation again. Look at what women have been through for a HUNDRED CENTURIES."; "I hope everyone posting in #GamerGate gets gassed, incinerated, and their tooth fillings melted into a silver/gold WiiMotes for Kim Jong-un and his extended family. I just feel you all should make the same contribution to the furtherance of tyranny and inequality in death that you did in life."

Here's his twitter for more casual holocaust denial. You can even say it to his face and not online and see what happens.

Should I be posting every harassing and threatening tweet made by gamergaters? I must've missed the memo that this thread exists for this purpose.

[Priran]

I must've missed the memo that I need to credential the people I post about. His twitter bio:

"Hi! I'm a writer, game designer and graphic designer. Currently a designer of mobile game content. Was Creative Director for Ascension. Gaming columnist."
