What is GamerGate?

If It's Not About Ethics... (VIDEO)

Blame GamerGate’s Bad Rep on Smears and Shoddy Journalism (Article by Cathy Young)

The Effects On Developers

OUR MISSION

We believe that the current standards of ethics in the media has alienated the artists, developers, and creators who perpetuate the things we love, enjoy, and enthusiastically build communities around. We have taken notice of various incidents involving conflicts of interest and agenda-pushing within media which we feel are damaging to the credibility of the medium and harm the community at large. We believe the current media is complicit in the proliferation of an ideology that squashes individuality, divides along political lines, and is stifling to the freedom of creativity that is the foundation of human expression.

KotakuInAction is a community that condemns willful censorship, exclusion, harassment, or abuse. It is a community that organizes to hold the media accountable to the concept of artistic freedom by standing up for the artist, the developer, the writer, the filmmaker, and all who enjoy the freedom to create, explore, and expand. It is a community that allows the exchange of information, supports the ongoing discussion of media ethics, and protects the right of the individual to embrace their personal interests in entertainment and fandom.

RULES

1 Don't be a dickparade. Discuss, don't attack. Contribute, don't troll.

2 Posting private information on anybody (“doxing”) is unacceptable. This includes addresses, phone numbers, etc.

3 Archive as much as you can. This is to preserve articles in their original format, in case they are edited in the future, as well as to ensure that the articles comments sections are not brigaded.

4 Remember to provide evidence for the claims that you make. If your evidence must remain confidential, message the moderators to privately verify your claims.

5 Don't repost content. Please check the new queue to make sure your post hasn’t been previously submitted.

6 No memes.

REMINDER: DO NOT POST ANY ILLEGAL CONTENT.

If you have any questions or concerns, please message the moderators before private messaging an individual moderator. We can't get back to you if we are asleep or experiencing real life.
