hockeybub89 12/12/18 10:16:38 PM #10:	People got mad that a no-name developer allegedly slept with someone to get a good review for her no-name game. It didn't happen. Jackasses started harassing her. In response, video game sites started talking about how gamers suck. A bunch of stupid bullshit followed. "Ethics in journalism" became the excuse despite there being actual examples of unethical behavior before and after that "controversy". I'm sure it was pure coincidence that this was the straw that broke the camel's back. Bitterbeards have gotten mad at every representation of women and minorities in games since. --- http://card.psnprofiles.com/1/NIR_Hockey.png http://www.last.fm/user/hockeybub89/ <cite>hockeybub89 posted [p:914032216] in What was t...
