For some reason i find gamer stolen valor kinda hilarious and i wish i knew anything about games to make an apt analogy about disembarking on bideo game normandy or some shit like that.
Everyone who headshots me is a soft aimbotter.
Every sniper who hits their shot is aimbotter and every sniper who doesnt have 100% accuracy should uninstall
Everyone who is better than me is a sweatlord and everyone who is worse than me is a no good noob
She actually went to live tournaments with that number. Pretty brazen.
fuck Gamers and everything but cheating and lying are still bad so
yeah it's still pretty funny tho to me cause it's just gaming. at worst a professional gamer was inconvenienced by playing against someone using cheats or whatever the case is. who really cares. professional gaming shouldn't even be a thing imo not to get too high and mighty. maybe me thinking that tho is why i don't see it as a big issue
Do you feel the same way about professional sports? If so then we just disagree but if you put esports in a different category then that's a contradiction you need to examine.
I really wish sport was amateurised again. That's what originally led to people supporting their local football ⚽ teams. Yet another thing Thatcher fucked up for us
Professional sports is the embodiment of "If you ain't cheating, you ain't winning", despite how much it tries to insist it isn't that.
not to get too political on hexbear dot net but the hans niemann buttplug scandal was objectively hilarious and i would hate to find out it didn't happen and was just a joke from a reddit comment
yes i do feel the same way about professional sports. people cheat at professional sports all the time too. i think that's pretty funny as well. they're playing a game for money.
We should have a league with cheating and a league without. I'm not just talking steroids, I mean the whole thing - blackmail, bribing, etc.
I want to know what country is the best at being scoundrels.
What happens if you cheat in the no-cheating-league, you ask? We throw the cheater down into a Big Hole. If they can climb out they're fine. If they've been very bad then we make the sides muddy. Bigness of hole determined by bigness of cheat.
Esports are the same as real sports (derogatory)
do you feel the same way about sports?
yes
fair enough!
I'm not a misogynist, but I fucking hate this, in this thread I will—
Hey, that 5th one is just a fancy way of saying Dark Souls.
I’ll go against the grain and say I don’t like this. It’s just going to fuel gamer misogyny more. She had a dude playing for her. It’s like a confirmation of all their shitty opinions.
she had a less talented dude playing for her because she's too good and it would be unfair for her to play
Dozens upon dozens of instances of men cheating at video games.
: “I sleep”
A woman cheats at video games.
: “Real shit”
The Dream cheating scandal was like international news lmao
The number of people who weren't misogynysts before reading this headline and will become misogynysts as a result is 0.
I think you’re underestimating the propaganda value of this, by shitheads. And the amount of sweaty losers this will connect with.
Like imagine being a woman now, and playing in leagues similar to this. The extra shit and scrutiny they’ll get.
I now believe all women are bad gamers and even worse, I suspect they buy emulation handhelds and play the default ROMs they come with, particularly the Genesis bootlegs like Pocket Monster II.
You're an outlier because of all the incredibly traumatic experiences Big Woman has put you through.

Misogyny is never okay. Even if the victim is a fraud. If a man cheats or fakes, he doesn't represent his whole gender and has to take no blame for putting anyone in a bad light. He just represents himself. What does her being a woman have to do with her success or failure or fraud in anything she does? This is victim blaming, because on top of (maybe fair) repercussions for faking, she is victim of hate that has nothing to do with her fraud and everything to do with her gender.
It’s not victim blaming. It’s just acknowledging the misogyny pervading gaming spaces, and how this act will intensify it. It’s not victim blaming to be frustrated about this, as the ramifications of this act will worsen conditions for women in gaming.
Ultimately the people at most fault are those doing the misogyny. That isn’t this person’s fault at all. But they did take actions that will intensify it, for their own personal gain. Being annoyed at them for doing this isn’t a symptom of latent misogyny. It’s just analyzing the action in the context it happened in. It’s about not ignoring the effects of an individual’s actions on the greater environment.
Forget it, the moralizing idealism has begun. There's no room for discussing cause and effect.

This is like when Israel does the most comedically anti-Semitic stereotypes like poisoning wells and using baby sounds to lure out more victims.
It’s bad folks. Leaning into reaction isn’t good. You aren’t owning the chuds by proving them correct and giving them propaganda, you are just fueling reaction
No, that is insulting to the victims of the genocide. When Israel did this (and still does), it was horrible, because of what they did (and still do) to the Palestinians. Not because of "painting other Jews in a bad light". Frauding gamers in this way is almost a victimless crime. No comparison.
Spreading anti-semitic beliefs is a secondary bad outcome of their actions that jews worldwide now have to deal with

Scamming gamers is based as hell.
What the fuck were they going to use the money for anyway, buy a third RBG LED keyboard? Another fucking funko pop?
Salute to a real one
She was caught in the semi final of a huge tournament playing against other female players.
