How to get permabanned on @GamesDoneQuick#AGDQ2022 chat: say there is a correct way to pronouce route. mod deletes your posts, sends you a pm calling you a wanker, blocks you, bans you. #powertripping .
@Glinner @magurndy @open_mix Has it occurred to you that you might be attacking the wrong people? theres no evidence linking GG to any of the abuse, never mind that the motivation of those posting 'abuse' was because the 'targets' were women.
@magurndy @Glinner I don't condone the death or the rape threats. The correct process though isn't to make a big deal about it on social media, its to contact the police and let them deal with it, especially as both are crimes. Making a big deal on social media just encourages the trolls to troll
@magurndy @Glinner What do you mean fellow men? i'm no more responsible for them then you are. this also assumes that there are no women amongst their number, which is kind of sexist. As for what GG is about, feel free to look at their own discussions, it was the ethics of gaming journalism.
@magurndy @Glinner Sure, but those trolls aren't GG, they mostly just get off on shocking each other and occasionally freaking out the norms elsewhere online. If they get ignored they tend to go back to winding each other up. Which is why rule 1 of the internet is don't feed the trolls.
@magurndy @Glinner It was that wikipedia article which sent me down the rabbit hole. It didn't make sense with the community online i knew, so i started digging. You know what i found, nothing, no evidence supporting the claim that GG harassed anyone. Just empty assertion.
@MsKris @emlafudd @melanie_coutts @theheraldsun@heraldsun Oh my bad...one was 6 years ago...as to why the fines go up...inflation, the govening body deciding that the fine at the lower level wasn't sufficient deterrent are probably the big 2. What you need to disprove my point though is to give examples of men this year paying less
@tannew1963 @JtcmPaul @theheraldsun@heraldsun you saw that picture and thought 'african cannibal with simian features'...wow thats a pretty racist thought...
@SkyNews@LucyMPowell Invasion of privacy in the name of protecting 'vulnerable people'. Next you will be calling for the banning of books and the prosecution of wrong think.
@incinirmatt @SeriousSimon1@danielzklein Several studies have shown women have a 2 to 1 hiring advantage in stem fields...so they are actually more likely to get the job, assuming they meet the minimum requirements. https://t.co/unuiZbfBAl
@danielzklein No. We have laws in pretty much every western nation which explicitly make it illegal to discriminate people on the basis of their gender. If you think it is acceptable to deny anyone because of their gender, you are a sexist and part of the problem.
