Lol, he probably thought he'd be a hero. Turns out he was just a loser with too much Internet time.

If anything it adds more fuel to the conspiracy that children are in there. WHY WOULD THEY SAY THERE IS NO CHILDREN, HUUUUUUUUUH?

If anyone doesn't know about the whole controversy, here's a couple of videos to summarize (at the very most) the suspicions and conjecture about it. You decide.
Just to forewarn, the material being discussed may be sensitive to some.
Spoiler:




The strongest points made though however was pointing out how the owner James Alefantis is somehow considered the 49th most powerful person in D.C. according to GQ magazine if he's merely a simple pizza restaurant owner, (he's one step below Jack Quinn, the chairman of Quinn Gillespie & Associates [a bipartisan lobbying firm]), and visited the White House 5 times (type in Alefantis in the search field).

Ethics in journalism only applies with video games. Everything else is fair play.

And even then it's still about slandering women.

Weird how that works...

No no no, it's not slander, they just have to be put in their place for voicing their opinions. Women as so new to the world of video games, they don't know any better.

We all know Carol Shaw was a haox created by China, and girl gamers didn't happen until titty streamers became a real menace.

I could talk out my ass and use buzzwords too, mommy!


I'm pretty sure by now 95% of Plastrons posts are snarky, sarcastic comments that often relate little to the subject at hand.

Don't take about your mother that way. She slaves over a hot oven all day to put food in your ungrateful little tummy.

I guess he doesn't qualify as African American to cubed because he doesn't say things like "yessa massa", "sup dawg", "yo", "kill whitey" and "shee-it negro!"

I used to get those confused too. Then I realized that "libel" and "library" both have to do with printed words and have the same root.
