Gamergate life 28 (english)
(Version castellano https://www.kukuruyo.com/comic/gamergate-life-28-castellano/)
So, you already know about the SVU episode (if not, check this strip https://www.kukuruyo.com/comic/gamergate-life-26-english/). Recently, the developer Mark Kern, who worked many time on World of Warcraft, gave the gaming media a scolding about their fault in the creation of the false narrative that led to the SVU http://theralphretort.com/world-of-warcraft-lead-developer-mark-kern-rips-kotaku-polygon-021215/
After that, he went on to create a petition to Polygon and Kotaku to lead the way to clean the image of the videogame industry https://www.change.org/p/kotaku-lead-the-way-in-healing-the-rift-in-video-games?just_created=true
There’s division inside gamergate about if we should sign the petition or not, some want to lend a reconciliation hand, others don’t want those sites to go unpunished, others simply don’t trust them. Personaly i simply think they will ignore the petition no matter how many sign, and one of the reasons i think that is the reaction of several members of the media http://blogjob.com/oneangrygamer/2015/02/games-journalist-threatens-devs-not-to-support-gamergate-devs-respond/
Essentialy they are saying they don’t have any responsibility in creating the narrative that led to the gamergate SVU episode, nope, any of that was because of their wrongdoing, i’m sure that treating gamers like if they were misogynysts, violent vile people or even terrorists haven’t influenced the script of that episode in the slightest.
There was some talking about it in this stream of female gamergaters https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVbLNg5eBFE
