Some people from the escapist forum would like to make a stream concerning Gamergate in general today (Friday 10.03.2014 US /03.10.2014)
We plan for the stream to start 3:00PM PDT should be 6:00PM EDT and 0:00AM CEST.
This will be our first stream and so far we still have place for 2-3 people.
Aside from a free flowing discussion we would also like to discuss certain topics concerning Gamergate.
Since this is our first stream we will try to stick to pro-GG people since the past has shown that discussion with non-GG people have often become very harsh in tone to put it mildly.
We do not want to exclude other people from participating in the stream but rather we just want to get our bearings first.
Once we feel safe enough we can engage we will of course welcome people who "oppose" Gamergate in order to further the discussion in that direction.
The topics for the stream so far:
1)A stroll down memory lane: What were the signs and was gamergate avoidable?
2.1)Click bait: Blessing or course?
2.2)Micro Wallets, why are mouse clicks worth money?
2.3)The new balance: Hard work deserves hard money. How to finance games journalism in the future.
3)Survival of the fittest: Games journalism vs. Youtubers
4)The line has to be drawn..eh..somewhere around there: The question no one wants to answer - Should "guilty" journalists be fired?
5)Different countries, different problems. Why japan doesn´t seem to care about the current controversy?
6)Power is a shadow on the wall: How big is gamergate really? Are we Legion?
7)A people divided: From Casual to hardcore and where they stand on gamergate.
8)Lack of diversity: From the Sims to Call of Duty
9)Western gaming culture: Video games and the 2nd Amendment.
10)"Mommy i want to be a misogynist": The damage done to "Gamer"
11)"Misogyny Inside": A stance on Gamergate or just good business?
Those interested in joining just pm me for more details.
