    Ah, but you have heard of him.

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    Ah, Fart's comment about "seeing the future" made it sound like he thought that second tweet was the dox and she somehow knew about it before it happened, and I mistakenly ascribed idea to you as well. I see what you're saying now. On that note, she did say in an article she watched it as it...

    Literally every post in the gg section of 8chan has "The Leader of Gamergate" at the top.

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    I didn't ask why you thought it was a sockpuppet account she made, but why you think that specific tweet made 6 minutes after she posted about being doxxed was the one she was claiming was the dox. That doesn't fit at all. You mean this shutterstock image? Of course, we can't confirm that...

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    Why are you (and FartToContinue) assuming she's claiming that the person in the second tweet is the one doxxing her, rather than that being someone taking the information from the dox and threatening her with it? That would fit with the other person going "I now know where you live", since she...

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    Niether of which provide any support for your claim that most gamersgaters were concerned with subtle postive press, rather than game reviews. In fact, they link to the main quinnspiracy video that claims that he was writing postive press about her game while having sex with her. This forum is...

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    You posted screenshots of someone theorizing about what Zoe may have done. I was asking about proof that those who were concerned actually were talking about the gamejam coverage and not game reviews.

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    Really? Our forum is the only one where talk of Zoe Quinn hasn't been wiped clean? There's not even any screenshots?

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    It's not a tangent to question whether what you're claiming is the bigger thing actually was the bigger thing. If you want to argue that it was, prove it. Where are the articles/posts claiming she got overly postive coverage in the game jam before the "sex for reviews" thing exploded?

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    I'm saying that sex for reviews has been a prominent message from the beginning, not "sex for a couple extra mentions in the coverage for an event she was a central figure in".

    Frank already covered how that's an exaggeration.

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    So it's not about journalistic intergity then, but people on the internet overreacting to strong moderation because of the harrasment involved in a specific incident.

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    Given how much blowback there was, it's a lot easier to blanket ban a volatile subject than try to sort through large amounts of comments/posts for which ones are legtimate and which are abusive. And if it really was a minor thing, as you've agreed, than a blanket ban of the topic isn't that big...

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    I'd wager that that had something to do with it being pretty much pure harrassment of a woman because of (as necronic said) few, if any, ethical breaches in journalistic integrity and more for her sex life. Can't blame people for not wanting to be a part of that, and for those running sites and...

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    Anything in terms of public appearences maybe (assuming that things don't die down in a few months/years and she goes back to it), but the death threats haven't stopped her from doing her videos, so clearly saying they've stopped her from doing "anything" is inaccurate. EDIT: Actually...

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    It's funny that the tweets they link to do a better job of showing the point Burch was making, the hypocrisy in what "corruption" they care about, than in working against him like they mean it to.

    The Zoe Quinn sex-for-reviews scandal

    That's about all the developers who participated in the Jam, and I doubt he's slept with all of them. Moreover, the video's claim is that Grayson gave her game favorable coverage, and this great injustice is what started all this. Which, as Frank pointed out, isn't true.
