Why is being a dick for no reason not as backlashy as being respectful for no reason?
If someone has to earn respect then they should also have to earn hatred too.
Okay, I am going to make this clear right now, I AM NEUTRAL ON GAMERGATE. If you supported or hated it then whatever, both sides had some points but I will not hate/like you just because of your stance. I just find it idiotic how almost everyone involved on both sides overreacted to the extreme...
Did you not read the comment? I am not stating my stance on the Gamergate debacle, only how everyone and their mother reacted to it. Regardless of how you viewed it, you can't deny it started a controversy that overall divided a lot of the Internet community as a whole. Last time I checked...
Okay.
Best case scenario: This whole thing blows over and everyone calms the heck down until the next hot controversial topic shows up.
Worst case scenario: Another full blown internet-wide Gamergate Journalism outrage just like in 2014.

Even though everyone here came to a general agreement of "yeah the people attacking him and the people defending him are both half right and wrong", i'll leave this video here anyway.
I won't use Sega as an example of a company that doesn't mind/supports fangames due to the "LOL THERE SO BROKE THEY TAKE WHAT THEY CAN GET" argument everyone loves to use. Instead I will use a company in a much better position, Valve. Look at all the hacks, fangames, mods, straight up remakes...
How many topics do you have to disagree on with someone before you can say "screw them and their thoughts"?
:posh:
In the past 3 years the only things I was ever in agreement with Jim on was #*bleep*onami and those *bleep* brothers that dumped all their garbage games on Steam.
Yeah, I ain't watching that guy. I have my reason for disliking and avoiding his content. But if whatever he says is something you can agree then that's fine. Also, I said murder (killing in cold intentional blood, not every kill is on purpose and therefore is not always a murder) is an issue...
