>>290837 I'd love to collate a better list of 'nominations' more or less and get a better public opinion on whats out there, I'll admit that there's probably a few out there I haven't read. I also wonder the best way to present this. I loved TB's award video from last year, but wouldn't mind it if it was hosted on another news site (like TechRaptor or Ralph) (How fast does this board move?)

>>290835 I don't consider people who've gone through sex reassignment men anymore, but I don't exactly consider them women either. They're kinda in their own zone.

>>290201 Good to know that there is an anon on the same page. This OP is not about "leaving #GamerGate" out. It's just to get the truth spread, later we can use those articles to our advantage. While I have to say, with that Op you more or less do the work of a journalists. Even with a good research, often you don't get replies. I mean even a reply that they are not intrested is rare. While every here and there there is a article then about our issues. Doing this for a few month, will help alot in the long run. Altough it takes alot of time, research, writing emails etc. Glad that you like the Op. : D

Some ideas: * Form work crews that can focus on one job without getting involved in the rest of GG. Use the GG meetups as opportunities to build crews for taking up work handed off by teams in other time zones. * Publish a tox contact ID for focused crews that are open to receiving public input. * Form a news team to have someone sweep each GG comms hub daily, collect digs and happenings, and spread the info. The reason for a team is to set schedules and prevent overlapping work. * Form a translations team to identify materials for translation and translate them into non-English languages. * Build blogs for intersecting issues. Internet Freedom. Consumer Rights. Web Censorship. Media Corruption. Back each one with a 501c3 to take donations to cover operational costs. and the captcha reminds me: Don't forget to have fun.

>>292226 & >>290155 & >>290154 Here another example: National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey: http://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/pdf/nisvs_report2010-a.pdf The Number of Male Domestic Abuse Victims Is Shockingly High — So Why Don’t We Hear About Them? https://www.yahoo.com/health/the-number-of-male-domestic-1284479771263030.html Collect other articles, which discuss the topic. Highlight Key People, point to their website. Write a friendly email, asking in a humble way if they might consider that topic, if they are not to bussy right know. Send the email to a dozen of outlets and see if the news is spreading. In my case I collect my narrative shredding articles. If you got a dozen together, realize them. Go back to GG hubs and give the fellow leaders ammunition.

>>292307 I currently try to establish a stronger presence in my home country. It will take a while but GG is devolping here. Nice ideas, leader!

>>290236 Too bad the game itself is a dead end.

>>292645 bump

So, while we all got distracted by in-fighting and shills, Randi got away with harassing one of our own off twitter. https://twitter.com/AshPnX/status/660164518186651648?lang=en Over 5000 followers and a fuck ton of posts/RTs a day. And it's up in smoke while /v/ was arguing about GG vs. Revolt, or whether to forgive or not. Now you might think it only seems worse thanks to shills attacking us over sharing SXSW with us, but for a long time KIA has been telling US what they've found and their new OPs. The guys from REDDIT are running GamerGate. We're their bitch. This will not stand. We need to go back to the old ways. IGNORE ALL SHILLS IDENTITY IS A SHILL Claims they come from another board? Shill. E-Celeb stuff? Shill. Drama not related to SJW evidence or ethics? Shill. Talking to a shill? Shill. We need to make ourselves stronger over Christmas. THATS how we get members back, along with new members! Not by "forgiving" the worst trolls and distractions we had in the first place. Though the other creed of GG is that we all do what we're good at. So, if you want to rope people back in (however that is) fine. Just remember to keep this place shill-free as possible. Remember: No one needs to take sides in a division shill to make them win. They only have to drive people away with constant arguments. Alternatively, we keep arguing, ignore CISA and let it ruin the internet to the point we all get vanned because companies think we're harassing their profits, and KIA rebrands GG as GG+. So lets remember: No identity politics Ignore & report shills, and those who reply to shills. I propose we get an OP up and running that will: - Encourage people to ignore, filter and report bait/shills (Identity politics, drama, etc). - Returning 8chan to the dominant force in GG instead of KIA. - More digging. - Helping re-educate the twitter front (more "clerics" looking out for everyone) - Bring back old members who quit due to drama and burn out. This will have a knock-on effect of revitalizing all other ops (DisNod, Digging, Rebuild, Et al). Deadline: Start of new year. We want a fresh start after all, and when current members come back after the holidays, they can be welcomed by a fresh, active, and focused /v/ & /gamergatehq/, with a twitter front that is happy, and can get out info at a moments notice. And most importantly, that we never stop, and make the happenings, rather than react to our enemies fuck-ups. Take my post you fuck. There's no flood, you didn't take my post in the first place

>>294152 >>294153 It won't let me delete my other post. Mods, feel free to delete one.

Self-delete's an annoying one. On the one hand it's great when you can do it. On the other, necrobump spammers take advantage of it and make it hard to get them. As a result, you've got no good options.

>>290154 >This Op is focus on public relations, influencing newspapers a dying media, that was co-opted by the Rockefellers and Morgans and Bushes before TV was even a thing. Or were you talking about online "newspapers?" Those mercurial clickbait shitrags staffed by anyone willing to take a check, and when any problem rises to the staff, it's instantly stifled with re-branding, a round of new hires, or just the facade of change?

>>294213 Both. I see your frustration with media. We both know how shit it is, while there are alot of people reading it.

Dang, I just got around to finishing the Back To The Future Telltale game. And shit, but we might've missed out on an Op here. >The main villain is a woman >even described as "strong-willed" and "fighting the patriarchal yadda-yadda" >she's a manipulative bitch, and in an alternative timeline used doc Brown to make Hill Valley into a police state, vomplete with brainwashing tech >and to top it all off, she condemns "hooligans", while at the same time being an arsonist (of course, in her native 1931, she only burned down speakeasies, so she could justify her actions as "for the greater good") Damn, we really could've shilled it for the Back to the Future day, might've redpilled some people. And even if not, it would've assblasted some SJWs. Oh well. Sage for being a month late, I guess.

bumping for beeing a nice thread, may the drama make fags look into this thread

>>294153 I'm drunk and tired so I don't know how coherent this will be. Gamergate is a hashtag. A hashtag is a way to garner attention, agreeance, and it's a tool for others to gauge interest in a topic. In Twitter lingo #_gate is usually shorthand for saying "the controversy involving ____." For example, DeflateGate is shorthand for the controversy involving allegations levied against the Patriots for cheating in a game leading up to the SuperBowl. The GamerGate Hashtag has used to spread awareness, garner interest, and organize activism on the internet, like most other hashtags have been used. BUT, there is one significant difference. No one got together and labeled proponents of the DeflateGate hashtag as terrorists and misogynists. That's what Gamergate proponents had to endure, and one way they coped is by coming together as a community. So in a way, Gamergate is more than a hashtag because it has a community attached to it. That community is the source of the hashtag's unique longevity, as well as it's ability to branch into sub-hashtags that serve smaller purposes, but also the source of it's biggest vulnerability. In that community, the only thing we have in common is that we've dealt with being labeled as something we're not. Because we're all so different, it causes a lot of infighting in that community, which causes people to "burn out" and "leave gamergate" though they're not leaving the hashtag, they're actually just choosing not to participate in the community. I highly doubt that any of the people who claim this decided they suddenly agree with SJWs and the game journos, they just don't like the community aspect of GG anymore. The reason there's 'so' much infighting is because the actual activism part can only happen after an event occurs so that we might respond to such an event. When there's a dry spell between happenings, all that's left for us to dwell on is the community, and that's when the spaghetti hurricane starts brewing. The biggest advice I can give is to remain vigilant and be PATIENT between dry spells. I'm not clever enough to come up with any plan of action.

>>290655 >Tell me that after Nyberg gets arrested. Implying social justice nazis ever face punishment for their crimes

>>303901 Oh, they will. Just not in ways that we expected.

I am kinda burned out this month problems in real life means i cant really focus on gg as much i used too. I hope these problems will be resolved by January at the most till then i mostly observe and comment rather than do anything.

>>303876 It's both a hashtag for discussion and a rallying call. Reason why there's infighting is when people get their personal politics inside and don't like when others 'hashtag wrongly'.

>>289706 maek bideo lames >>300894

Well, there's an issue that has crossover with Animus. Namely, localizers taking far too many liberties with shit.

>>304028 This is really common with twitterfags and irc types for some strange reason the infighting.

I'm archiving SA's politics and gaming discussion forums as it is their free week. I would suggest other anons to start archiving everything as well. Especially if you have access to Helldump as apparently that's behind yet another paywall.

I have almost 9 GB of SA's shit. I hope you guys are combing through that shithole as well. Or are you too distracted by drama to do some digging?

OP Suggestion: Usurp the Dewrito Papacy Yes that's the best name I can think of Geoff Keighley's The Game Awards is probably the biggest collection of sniveling and conniving corporate shilling in the entire industry. It's where the games media can shill for their buddies in the industry and pat them on the back for sucking the most gamers. Yet there's been nothing done about it. No one speaks out against it, at worst they'll be dismissive towards it. Why? Are people honestly content that a group of PR-spokespeople calling themselves "Journalists" should be allowed to dictate what is the best of the medium? Why don't we start digging up the relationships between the "judges" panel and the games/studios up for nomination. The fact that the judges don't disclose potential conflicts of interests is very huge, and I doubt every single one of the judges is clean - no one in the "media" It's not like we haven't dug up these sort of relationships before - we were really into digging up COI with the IGF and other indie-level awards shows. However, this is AAA level, where shit is much harder to dig up due to careful planning and manipulation of the PR and marketing departments. The show is in 2 days, so finding the connections in time to blow the lid open on this shitshow is going to may be impossible. Continuing to see this corporate shilling in games media just makes my blood boil, and I don't want to feel like GG is useless against this. https://archive.is/FRSn9 Nominees for the awards https://archive.is/jPghO Judges Advisory board http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/165235-Mortal-Kombat-X-New-Characters-To-Be-Revealed-at-the-Game-Awards https://archive.is/Ug7N2 Mortal Kombat having new content revealed during the show where it is a nominee for an award - when has a company made a major reveal at an award show if they weren't walking away with an award? The only time I can think of this is for Tomb Raider during the 2013 VGX despite the massive showing off of her voice actress. I know it's not a promising start, but it's not like the AAA industry is as sloppy as indies are.

>>305231 How can a sane person stand to read the repulsive bullshit on Something Awful? They've been one of the worst sites on the internet for 16 years.

>>305606 I've lost my sanity a little more than a year ago. I think I might give up it's too much too archive and httrack panics when there is too much shit to archive. All I have is an 11GB folder with nothing but shit. I think I might give up. If any other anons want to archive be my guest. Though you'll need to find someone who's wasted $10 if you want any of the helldump shit. We need a proper digging OP on SA and we need to do something to get into the SJW's inner circles. I heard from an SJW at one point that they would regularly would congregate in an IRC or chatroom but I've cut all ties from that person as they brought upon a psychosis that made me practically insane for over a year now. We're also splintered into many different camps. If we can somehow try and unite the different camps we can probably get some fucking shit done. Again, as said fucking practically everywhere else. No more eceleb bullshit. No leaderfagging as well unless it's for individual ops. Squad up my niggers.

Retired faggot here, passing by to see what's going on. I thought GG was winning. How wrong am I?

>>305829 GGHQ is dead due to e-celeb drama (GEE WHAT A SURPRISE), and KIA has been taken over by SJWs, who now they consider things like ODN to be a "SJW tactic". /v/ is probably the only active place now.

>>289706 Take Back the Academy This is related to the post on needing more university digs. Archive: https://archive.is/X0z2F Direct: http://news.wisc.edu/24213 (for easily accessing links, it’s a public university news page) UW-Madison, a major research university in Madison, Wisconsin, posted this news item today. Gamification in action – teaching faculty to be more ‘empathetic” and “aware of discrimination” by use of a totally, most definitely real-to-life video game called ‘Fair Play”. Ridiculous claims in the article include the “muh women and minorities in tech” non-starter and that diversity is measured by if the number of “women and minorities” in tech equal their national population percentages or not. The associate professor at the tiny state college of UW-Whitewater claims that the game reminds him of his experience 14 years ago as a student – when he claims he had “authority” over his professors to speak on things but wasn’t given it because he’s an affirmative action admittee. The loops of (non)logic in this article can be further rendered. The main point is the dig. “Fair Play” is brainchild of Molly Carnes, professor at UW-Madison School of Medicine and Public Health Worked with the Games+Learning+Society Cetner with $1.6 million grant from National Institutes of Health (NIH). Being used by Christine Pribbenow of UW-Madison’s School of Education LEAD Center for faculty misinformation. OP ideas: dig for connections and take back the university (or demolish and start anew), stop leaving these people dominance over the scholarly institutions. They will and are using them as hiding caves and attack bases when they are supposed to be places of free expression and inquiry that do not impose ideologies on students, staff, and faculty. Send emails to the news author, campus, and other outlets (whoever you think might make use of response emails) demolishing point-by-point with evidence the claims of the article and the intellectually bankrupt precedent they are setting. We’d need to access our fact supplies for this one. I always thought GG and company were about rising to fight again, levelling up, and so on. Better get back to it – the next boss is always supposed to be tougher.

Digging ideas: Bill Zoeker and his relationship to LW, particularly in July 2014 Ben Kuchera's coaching LW in damage control the weekend theZoePost dropped (talk to Broteampill) Thidran's Steam wish list and why he wants a game by an indie clique SJW.

well, while this is a brainstorming thread, I was thinking about how trying to stay on target on an imageboard is not working. It either turn into a revolt spergfest with no cohesion, and too easily infiltrated by DnC shills as example the numerous threads about their hateboner for Acid (seriously why can't they have a single sticky for that shit?) or a focused board that end up being the pray of all and every attempt to slide it, spam it, shill it, etc. I like the ID system, but its not enough, I would envision a forum format with registering and login. no names, but ID with number of Posts, because while having a low post count dont mean you are shit, legitimate posters gather post count thru time. Of course any attempt at dismissing an opinion on post number rather than quality of post would not be allowed. We could have subsection with various focus, a digging one, a meta one, a happening one, news articles, debunking team, etc. the most useful aspect would be that stuff stays there, no pruning, manual deleting and build up ressources. but then this whole thing has one major flaw, and that is deciding who runs it, and who is willing. I could not envision Acid nor Cancer Crew having any position in it for obvious reasons. Mods and staff would also have a form of forced anonimity, with an ID system, with rules about never revealing IRL who they are, not even online handles, cuz that always lead to either circlejerking, or scapegoating

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
