I don't mean devs crying about the threats as this whole ordeal is much larger than that. Anita Sarkisian is on a quest to change games as a whole instead of letting devs do as they please and as PC as everyone tries to be in today's world I have little doubt her and others will influence some changes going forward.
Every company is free to accept and/or reject that kind of thing based on what they believe is best for their business model. That's how our society works.
I think what's really bothering you is that you've been on the losing side of a lot of these "PC battles". You need to accept that your way of thinking is, in many social instances, the minority one. We have progressed greatly as a nation over the years and will continue to do so. Love or leave it.

quote:I don't see people crying over all the males shot every year. Why do crimes that happen to females require so much more media attention than all of the others? Spoiler alert: They don't. Women and white knights just pollute social media with it so it seems more prevalent. Everyone deals with the same psychos regardless of gender. Women have been screaming for equality for forever. Men don't have "feel sorry for us" seminars. Nothing comes out of these death threats and it's not only females receiving them. If I were a betting man I'd bet a large sum of money that more males have received death threats in the gaming industry than women and it wouldn't even be close. I wish the media heads representing the female gender would make up their minds on whether they want us to regard females as equals or to treat them like a wounded, endangered animal. Because they're asking for both and that's not how it works.
how about the guy in California that shot up the sorority house for no reason other than they were women? i guess next you're going to tell us they had it coming.

That guy also hated women because he was beta as frick and he had severe mental issues. He also didn't post about it on the net prior. He uploaded a video a few minutes before that was his "manifesto" but it's not like he was on twitter telling all the girls he was about to come shoot them days and months in advance.
ETA: His family also knew something was wrong with him and were trying to get him help.

I predict the government gets involved and forces a feminist takeover of the gaming industry.

Making it against the law to harass a person with death and rape doesnt take away freedoms that dont hurt people.
Define harassment for me. It can become very vague.

This is all a crock of absolute shite.
You don't like the games I play.
Don't play them.
Telling me how you are going to make games more PC.
Well frick you. ANd I will tell you that to your face.
True story, I have been playing computer games since the 70s...Yeah I'm that guy. Microprose put out a tank game in the early 90s/late 80s....WW2. Only they went PC and decided not to include SS units in the game because that wasn't PC.
The game was dead on arrival.
Gamers don't put up with PC bullshite. They will spend their dollars on something else.
Each and everyone of these women is an attention seeker...woe is me.
From, I will sleep with everyone for good reviews Zoe...to I will cherry pick shite so I can get attention Anita.
frick both of them.
asurob out.

I just don't see why we need more laws when we can all recognize the fact that anonymity makes people utter assholes. I hate that people occasionally get hate mail when they develop a public persona, but there are tons of petty irrational assholes out there. good luck fixing that.
I can't think of a single instance of this harassment turning into actual rape or murder.
ignore the trolls and they lose their power. it's that fricking simple.

Sorry your ideology is shite. Try to stick to catchy slogans and stop ruining gaming. Thanks.

can you please give a link where male developers are being told they are going to be raped and killed, have pictures of their homes posted, and have crazed fricks claiming on youtube they were driving to a persons house to frick them up over and over?
and how do you know those men haven't tried to go to the police only to be essentially ignored?
I highly doubt you or anyone here would act like it was no big deal if all the sudden you, your daughter, wife, or son started getting a tons of death/rape threats like these people have so don't even pretend like you would laugh it off like it was no big deal.
WOW. You sound like a whiny bitch too..What's wrong the rolling stone printed another lie about alleged rapes and stirred up your man hating community again? STFU and go back to DU..or the kitchen.
