[Chelly]

Because her white knights will try to twist everything into abuse against her.

Lol I love 4chan confusing SJWs that think 4chan hates all women especially those in gaming, instead of just hating zany SJWs.

Sadly, this is disappointing for all indie developers and those who wants to be an indie game developer. It shows that a girl that uses her genitals and screws around with critics, other developers and you name it can reach to a point to get her game (Although i dont think it is a game) on steam and gets supported , justified for her actions. It seems even feminists support this kind of behavior and crowning her "Zoe of Arc".

This is pretty much the gist of it. There is a massive campaign to discredit everyone calling her out, and victimize her for everything as a means of damage control. Its really stupid that some people are actually buying into it.

Seriously try to read what I have written I know this approach will probably yield less attention, but you should have learnt that not all attention is good by your age, but it makes for a better conversation.

These sites obviously don't want you talking about it using their forums or comment sections why is that so hard for you to understand? They are privately owned and they can dictate what can and what cannot posted be on their sites. Seriously there is no cover up you are not a bunch of serious journalists that have uncovered a plot that will rock the foundations of society.

I have never said that it is fake this comes back to actually reading what people write, seeing as you appear to unwilling or unable to read what is in front of you how can you be sure that this cover up is going on?

Why though? As someone else posted, 'We can call Sarah Palin a bitch, but we can't call Zoe Quinn a whore?"

Why? The things I have read on reddit, and you are trying to validate the MASS CENSORSHIP, "because they wouldn't want to deal with that stuff." Go back and read their excuses.

You DID imply it though, while agreeing with someone who described this thread as "making stuff up." You said 'People just trying to get angry, so they can be angry at being angry' .. What else could that mean?

But as always, most of your post is useless fluff, with little real information and zero proof to anything at all. Oh yeah, I forgot you own a forum or soemthing.

He's posting the nudes that she had professionally done and uploaded to the public! The bastard!

There's no proof he has posted any nudes. Those images have been floating in the internet for almoust a decade soon.

Apparently the guys on Dramatica found those pictures from the actual site that paid for them by the looks of it.

Im aware your post was sarcasm.

Strange article popped up about this. Only 7 paragraphs are actually about Zoe then it dissolved into video game rape and anita so I stopped reading that BS. I actually feel a tiny bit towards the other way now, if her ex did make a website to post nude pics of her and ty to humiliate her that is grade A douchebag harassment and should have been kept private, not broadcast over the web.

Well, there's a reason why people say "All's fair in love and war".

I don't think I'd even try to maintain a relationship with a person that I did not absolutely adore and appreciate, and while that is a failing of this young man's own... There's women who have relationship ending bullshit in their facebook inbox and it's women who mostly tout about how cheating is wrong and that people who do are despicable and deserve to be punished.

Yet... When a woman does as much and a dude turns around, infuriated and retaliates, he is apparently an awful human being. You act like people don't talk about these things anyway after a split.

You know what? One of my friends just recently fell out with her husband. Before this, like maybe a few weeks before, we're all hanging out and doing stuff and somehow we get to the topic of how important sex is in a relationship and she's like "i don't really like sex".

Who doesn't like sex? That must be awful, there's no way that's right. She's never had good sex before, he must have been doing something very wrong. And, uh, since they told me that, and I told other people that, and they told other people they think they can confide in not to tell a secret... It kind of gets around.

But you know, she [Zoe] treated him like shit. Why can't he treat her like shit back? Because he's a man, and men are supposed to have strong, indomitable personalities to which we should all aspire? If it was the other way around, we'd all be applauding some poor young woman for standing up and exposing her worthless dickhead boyfriend for the piece of shit that he is.

Why aren't we allowed to be as petty, vengeful and conniving as a woman can choose to be?

[Pann]

if you dont care why are you posting in this thread trying to disprove/dismiss the accusations?

I am not trying to disprove anything. Stating that the people who appear to be on a witch hunt are behaving poorly and at times in manner that could see them served with a lawsuit is not the same as defending her or trying to disprove what has been said.

She may or may not have slept with someone who writes reviews whether this had any impact on the review she got or not I have no idea. But they are both consenting adults and if you are that bothered about the integrity of games reviewers why are not complaining about journalists that receive all expenses paid trips to the likes of E3, Gamescon, Blizzcon, etc from games' publishers?

It appears that she cheated on her (ex) partner and to be honest that is nobody's business but those involved.

The Charity accusations should be worked out between her and the charity. If they are as serious as some are making out then the charity should be able seek full legal redress.

It would appear that she has behaved in a poor manner however that is not reason to create web pages calling her a whore or post comments calling her this, that and the other, posting nude pictures of her or going around to her home.

Lol I love 4chan confusing SJWs that think 4chan hates all women especially those in gaming, instead of just hating zany SJWs.

Uh, 4chan has even less of a consensus voice than this website does.

The only thing those people have in common is a shared love of tentacle porn.

[grexly75]

And this is supposedly the game she created http://store.steampowered.com/app/270170/ at least according to a post here http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=142602.0

And on Reddit one poster lambasted the game and so on.. http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comme...ism_since_the/

If you Google Zoegate there are a few hits to it still..

[pocky_rin]

@Gandrake. I agree and disagree. Anyone who gets treated like a dick, and then acts like a dick back rather than walking off and being the bigger person, is wrong. Doesn't matter male or female. Yes society is more forgiving towards women in this regard but to me if it was her writing the blog post I'd still think it was dickish. Talking about a breakup among a circle of friends is fine and normal. Even on your facebook I guess if it's not open to the entire public. I just think making an entire blog about it crosses the line somewhat and is a douche move, even if was reversed genders. But yeah I'm reading the blog post now and it's pretty well written to be honest I thought it would just be ranting from how people were damning it. She doesn't come off very well at all, not in his words, she doesn't come off well in her own words lol.

And lol grexly75 the positive reviews on that steam game are hilarious.

yes how dare they post publicly available pictures.....those fiends. if you post it on the internet dont expect it to stay private.
and her acting like a complete sociopath shouldn't have any backlash or public consequences whatsoever? please.

I take it you are aware of the difference between a whore and a bitch? I let you guess which comment is libellous. But behaving like an arse in the past is not a reason to let you continue being an arse.

Why should I? They don't want you talking about it on their site they could give you the reason that they have deleted your post because it is Friday if they wished. They, like MMO-C, are entitled to censor whatever they like on their private site. Don't like it set up your own site where you and others can blow your whistles to your hearts' content.

No I didn't you can't read. It could mean exactly what it said and that they want something to be angry about.

Well stop replying to me then I guess we'd both be happier. Do I?

[Mormolyce]

I don't know what's more comical, the hordes of idiots buying into this farce or the suggestion that the unprofessional "gaming media" has fallen from some fictional lofty standard that never existed.

We're talking about a bunch of people on youtube talking about which games they do and don't like here. If you were expecting them to be Walter Cronkite, you're an imbecile.

[Graeham]

I learned a few years ago that if you act like a prick on the internet then there's a very real risk of it coming back to haunt you in the future. People shouldn't be surprised that there's consequences and a major backlash in response to a manipulative individual causing all sorts of strife for multiple organisations and individuals alike.
