I wonder how many people here were met with a "you are blocked" message while trying to check that link.

Christopher John Goldberg, aged 32, was arrested and charged on the morning of June 28th, 2017 for possessing child pornography. This was detailed in an article from a small Pennsylvania media outlet named Pocono Record, which picked up the event after Goldberg was arrested and charged by the local police. According to the report, Goldberg had 53 pornographic images of small children between the ages of 12 and 14 years of age on his mobile phone. Additional images and video were also found on his home computer.

So what’s the relevance of this story to #GamerGate? It turns out that Christopher John Goldberg was a former moderator at NeoGaf, going by the handle of Amir0x. Not only that but he was one of the more vocal and outspoken members from NeoGaf who defamed and mislabeled anyone using the GamerGate hashtag as racist harassers.

This is proof that #NeoGAF was a pedophilia campaign targeting children.

No it's just proof that those who crusade to an irrational degree against imagined immorality are almost always horrible people in their own right. It's real easy to believe the world is full of horrible people when you are one. It makes you feel better about yourself. You have to be a halfway decent person to automatically assume that people are generally halfway decent.

Sorry, I don't always pay enough attention to know which people are completely oblivious and which people are smart enough to use dry humor like that.

Quote
Anti-#GamerGate journalist Matt Hickey is not only facing multiple counts of rape charges in the state of Washington, but he’s also being sued by the Attorney General’s Office in Washington on consumer protection grounds. The suit came up after the Attorney General Bob Ferguson had the case brought forward where it was discovered that Hickey had been running his fraudulent porn recruitment agency for more than a decade in order to trick women into sleeping with him.

I've been reading about this guy.

Even though Amir0x was former moderator and veteran poster, he had been banned over 10 times. He once scammed the forum out of donations allegedly for his sick mother. He was a known junkie. He last ban before this incident was for being having a massive meltdown on election day. lol, how much of a insufferable spastic do you have to be to be banned from fucking NeoGAF for being anti-Trump?

Some gold nuggets of hypocrisy:









Oh, and his brother is also a pedophile:

That's me reading his posts. And Patton Oswalt too, the hero comic of NeoGAF!

It's subtle but that why I gave NeoGAF the hashtag. But you are correct that "it's just proof that those who crusade to an irrational degree against imagined immorality are almost always horrible people in their own right."  I think a few of other "Gamers are mysoginists/manchildren/virgins" writers got busted too for sexual assault/harassment since then, that Faraci guy for example.

I can't find any of Matt Hickey's articles of that era, he wrote for a half dozen sites apparently Gizmodo, Forbes, CNET, TechCrunch etc. I wanted to compare what accusations he made vs what he actually did himself. I guess I could just dig up anyone's article of the era, thinking back, they were all identical and all mostly wrong too.

Only thing that worries me is that their standard userbase is going to spread to the rest of the popular sites once neoGAF is gone for good. It was also an easy way to find stupid posts since they happened in that one place quite frequently, although their userbase does more damage than good so I'll take the site getting nuked over a good laugh every once in a while.

EDIT: SIte in maintenance mode right now, lol.

I absolutely love how all the people who were crying "GAMERS ARE SEXIST" are the ones cropping up with sexual assault charges.

Irrefutable proof that they were trying to compensate for their own reprehensible behavior.

i don't think anyone is deliberately attacking the site, neogaf used to go down all the time whenever big events happened, now the site is getting hammered because everybody wants to take a look at the threads being posted
