The Cross Assault thread (link to stream in 1st post)

I dont know where this comes from. I barely touched the Tekken stream, because i wanted to see the game and a) the Spooky stream looked better and b) they had better gameplay and were not sandbagging the stream until later on, but i saw Miranda telling Aris to stop the camera shit on day 2, and they had an off camera discussion about it, where apparently he told her he does not give a shit. While i agree she should have gone to the Capcops to intervene, she did say something about it. She is not to blame for “Aris being Aris” … who would blame a rapist for raping anyway, right?

It’s mostly one sided. He posted a page of this topic completely ignoring context.

Maybe I am out of the loop but who is Sterling?

Lol I love Sterling.

well, Giant Bomb wrote an article on it…

Also I adore Jim Sterling generally, but I think his facts are a bit skewed on this one, too much second hand, not enough knowledge of actual events. Standard journalism.

OMG I LOVE THIS EXPOSUREEEE… WE MOVIN ON UP

No Aris being Aris is…Aris’ fault. I was saying she needed to do something whether it was telling Capcom what was up or telling Aris to stop.

Edit: @K3lloggz wrong show dude lol

What you talking bout Mike

Plz no infractions, I couldnt resist :stuck_out_tongue:

Well, she did tell Aris to stop, which he did not do. And according to the giantbomb article, she did tell capcom about it; She deleted a tweet about it:

If you think she is lying or telling the truth is up to you, of course.

Well if anything its all on Capcom but they knew what was up and just ran with it.

A guy that got a job writing sensationalist bullshit and passes it off as “gaming journalism”.

Unlike Giant Bomb or Destructoid, I’d rather not draw a conclusion via tweets and second hand information and then proceed to snip conversations from the stream.

Alot of interesting stuff brought to light here. Guess I’m buying popcorn tonight.

WHOOOOOOOOAAAAAA…Does anyone really believe this garbage?

FUUUCCCKKK.

A lot of people are not putting themselves in Miranda’s shoes. Imagine someone you weren’t attracted to saying sexual remarks to you, repeatedly.

Seriously imagine if Aris was saying the same things to you. That he wanted to see you mud wrestle with NerdJosh, he would come up behind you and smell you and tell the stream you smelled, “Not bad.” If he asked he you how big your dick was.

Unwanted sexual attention is wrong. Especially when you are a minority in the group and no one else standing up for you, in fact they are laughing at the interaction.

Really imagine what it would be like.

Its alrdy been stated that he worded it wrong. He means the way we have Non-PC jokes, and how we dont tip toe our fun with the concept of Political correctness is a part of our culture, and if you take that away, it is no longer the FGC. And I wholeheartedly agree.

Happens all the time man, seriously, you make light of it, if it pisses you off you tell them off not whinge on Twitter, stop fucking white knighting and making yourself look like a pathetic doosh

Listen, you can find the archive of this conversation and hear the whole thing, not just that snippet. I’ll even find it for you.

Well, does anybody know what is happening on stream? /work
