Hmm, Iā€™ll actually have to think about whether dudes who actually got banned count. It kind of waters down the ā€œone-use sockā€ aspect if they, yā€™know, totally might have come back. Maybe I should keep separate lists?

ā€¦Hey, is there a time limit for editing BBS posts? Itā€™d be easier if I could keep the list in a separate thread and just link to it.

Ouch. Nissaan GM and Colgate go downā€¦all your praddling here isnā€™t going to bring em back

Did you watch her videos. She says that verbatim

Hey, we got a new one! Add David_Prince to the list!

A link with a time offset into the video would do a better job as an argument.

With no reference that is a hollow personal opinion.

If you want to be taken seriously, back your personal opinion with facts.

Yeah, like thatā€™s gonna happen!

(mainly because itā€™s actually impossible :P)

To be fair, gawker ARE a bunch of self-important deadshits whoā€™ve got nothing better to write about than other peopleā€™s private affairs. What important stories have they ever broke? None. Not a one. Thatā€™s the measure of a good media organisation and gawker fail miserably.

Iā€™m also tired of hearing about all this shit. Congratulations internet: youā€™ve now successfully drawn attention to attention-seekers.

Iā€™d actually like to know thisā€¦ Iā€™d be surprised because the mods can easily see in the backend from which IP the comments were posted, and sock puppets used to be autobanned. Obviously a VPN could obfuscate 1 person into many, but you can often tell that too, depending on which VPN product is being used.

The accusation that pro-gamergate commenters are sock puppets regularly gets thrown around. It would be interesting to get @beschizza or one of the mods to investigate that and validate the accusation.

This one picked up exactly where the last one left off (as in ā€œNyah! Nyah! Look at the advertisers leaving!ā€), with the same tone, same manner of speech. I might be mistakenā€¦ but Iā€™d be surprised.

I think Falcor made a comment to that effect, actually.

Yeah, I really hate Gawker too. Bunch of professional trollies. But #GamerGate has had me linking to them again, because compared to the gatersā€¦

You are mistaken, as evidenced by my profile. Do most sock puppets have thousands of comments and thousands of liked comments?

The fact that youā€™ve gone on to accuse me of being them based on that fact that I have questions gives credibility to their claims that itā€™s easier to dismiss and discredit than deal with their charges.

I actually think gamergate proponents and the media the theyā€™re battling against is the grandest waste of time. I play games. I loves games. I donā€™t care what some writer thinks about games because Iā€™m able to make my own decisions on these matters and, generally speaking, mainstream media perspectives on ANYTHING are bland and middle of the road.

Heh, yep. Itā€™s all just a load of shit. Gamersā€¦ Stop making gawker look like the good guys that theyā€™re not!

Interestingā€¦ I think someone just flew by right at the denouement.

And they also picked up 1 new advertisers of that caliber.

What? You mean advertisers donā€™t remain static!?

This totally dashes my plans to take credit for the sun rising tomorrow.
