In semi-related news, some kid posted a video on Facebook (don’t remember what it was about, don’t care) and this nigga was in the house with a tank top on and a Burberry scarf… Think about that for a sec… He wanted to stunt with that scarf sooooo bad, he threw it on in the summer time over a wifebeater. This generation, man… Always trying to show off the money they don’t have.
Reminds me of this video I seen where these guys drove past somebody really slow who was sagging his pants. They said “hey phagg” And when he tried to chase them his pants fell down and he ate the sidewalk. It was gold.
The guy (and any other Polytron emps impacted) didn’t deserve this, but I can’t say I’m surprised much. Assholes are everywhere.
:rolleyes: at the folks who think this was staged or conspired. You don’t willingly give out your social just to score publicity or sympathy on the Internet. Prolly just kids who don’t yet know how bad identity theft can fuck up someone’s life.
I like how Fish doesn’t think for a second that his behavior wouldn’t cause people to do this kind of thing. It’s what you get for being an asshole to your audience.
The problem is that other devs are being targeted too. Not defending Phil (I don’t like him either), but randoms are getting hacked too. Shit needs to stop.
No it’s what happens when people have no goddamn self control & instead of just ignoring someone they give them more ammo to prove how shitty they are.
This was the message on the site (polytron) before it went down completely :

"Hello everyone, I am the head mod over at /V/ and leader of 4chan.org and Anonymous.
This public execution of Polytron and Phil Fish is retaliation for his attempted coverup of five guys burger and fries.
Let this be a warning to all SJW game devs out there, we are coming for you.
The hack of Zoe Quinn has already taken place as of a few days ago and I have targeted more SJW indie devs today.
My next target is Phil Fish. Karma’s a bitch ain’t it Phil?
Maybe Sony should treat their stable of hunting games like the Marvel movie universe, with narratives culminating in an Avengers-style crossover title. That might result in ~1/5 to 1/3 of numbered Monster Hunter sales.
Is there any special reason to go to TGS this year? Let’s say you’ve gone several times already and you’re burnt out-- are there any hints or rumors that would make next month a can’t-miss?
Anonymous doesn’t really have a leader. They are what they are. A group of random people who believe they’re like the web illuminati. ‘We are everyone and we are no one’ is a part of their slogan IIRC.
I think what’s happening to Zoe and fish is well deserved. The corruption of gaming journalism and the infiltration of SJW was eventually going to reach a boiling point. Now that shit has been exposed whatever lingering credibility these communities had is quickly losing ground. Although I’m sure it won’t be long before the next trend repeats the same process in gaming…maybe we will go back to the "video games cause violence"debate.
I guess it’s better to hit something not important as opposed to a Fortune 500 company/someone wealthy, who can trace it back to the hacker(s), and go from there.
Naw, Phil is a douche but no one deserves this. No one deserves their most important identification information being made public to everyone. That’s fucked up.
