Jace was revealed to be a hoax, so have to come up with a new bullshit excuse to be frightened, amirite?

According to the KiA thread, even Ghazi is having trouble buying this one.http://www.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/2xjih8/brianna_wu_claims_she_was_sent_a_tweet/

Ghazi said:
Going to agree. Can't just accept something as serious as this on faith, especially after the false alarm with the - what was it, gas attack?

I wish she would have posted a screenshot or archive of the tweet...

Yeah, I need that before I can make a personal determination.

I don't believe her anymore.
 
But guiz, disagreeing with her is sexism! If you don't believe her, you're invalidating her trauma!
Honestly, Bri used to be really entertaining, but now it's just getting kinda sad. She's so desperate for any kind of attention or validation that she'll say anything. Consider: If she was actually in real danger in the future (she won't be), would anyone take it seriously? She's played out, and I think a part of her knows that her 15 minutes of fame is coming to a close.
 
The trouble with all this attention whoring is that is like a drug addiction.

You can't stop and you have to continually increase the danger level to keep others interested.

First it's my-soggy-knees, then it's harassment, then it's death threats and now it's acts of terrorism.

What next Wu, people planning to nuke the city your in? Blow up the whole planet just to get at one sad ass dude?

Even Ghazi is getting tired of this shit.
 
If only the Boston Globe was as sensible as that Ghazi user. Brianna even has a favorite line from the article she wrote to that rag.
I wonder who her editor is. Becaauuuuse I just did a quick search of their online news archives and found that Noah Guiney, an editorial writer for the Globe name dropped her in his entry for the 2014 Abridged Dictionary.

Third entry from the top. Nice illustration too.

Classy as fuck.

And of course, there was their write up about her back in October, but just curious to see where this train will go.

As much as I hope it doesn't come to this, I am concerned about that Brianna, when the pity pond dries up, is going to try and to something stupidly drastic like fake an attack on herself. We have already have recorded proof that she has tried multiple times to fake a verbal attack on herself. And she also has seen how much extra media attention she got during the whole Jace thing. I don't know if it would be too much of a stretch for her to try to fake an injury and claim it was some random GamerGater that jumped her.

Fuck, I really hope it doesn't come to that.

I wouldn't worry to much about this having much follow-through: any police investigator worth his salt would be able to connect the dots. Wu doesn't strike me as an altogether competent fraudster of that caliber.

Yeah, I'm not worried about any long-lasting ramifications towards gamers or anything. Wu and her colony of asslickers have no real effect on me as a gamer other than give me something to be continuously disappointed about. However, as much fail she brings to the world, I don't actually want to see any harm befall her, other than maybe someone slap her in the back of the head and tell her to stop being such a fucking louse and get to work on her game. It's the same way I feel about Chris: he's the epitome of the Ugly American, but I don't want any actual harm to come to him because despite all of his ugliness, he's a human being.

Wu, however doesn't really seem to understand this concept and cares only for her own capital worth. As hilarious as it would be to see her reaction when her ruse is revealed, it would be just as sad to see her try to do something so pathetic.
 
He has made his own bed so let him lie in it.

I have no pity for Mr. Wu and any actions he chooses to take to further his own agenda are entirely upon his own conscience. If he chooses to do something stupid and it backfires so much the better.

Self-inflicted injuries are forensically extremely easy to tell. But it probably doesn't matter as SJWs believe what they want to believe.

However, as much fail she brings to the world, I don't actually want to see any harm befall her, other than maybe someone slap her in the back of the head and tell her to stop being such a fucking louse and get to work on her game.
Laughing at him and discrediting him in public will do more damage to his psyche than any physical injury can ever do.
 
The idea of Wu doing self-harm and blaming it on GG is actually really possible, honestly. Hell, Milo delayed that article on her for months because he didn't want her hurting herself. I wouldn't put it past her to see something like that happen in a fewweeks, honestly. Maybe around the time PAX happens?

I once wouldn't think she was crazy enough to do something like that...but after Jan pretty much verified she legit tried to get a restraining order against a man who didn't exist in the legal system, it's entirely possible we have a more self-violent Vade in the making here where merely to function on a daily basis, they must harass somebody on the internet.

If Wu's retarded enough to do this (and she might be), the game's over. She'll have passed the line of defensibility for even her staunchest allies. Wu is already dangerously close to outliving her use to the Antis. She pissed off Zoe Quinn - someone more successful and more sympathetic than her - ages ago with her fucking Oppression Olympics bullshit:

B1_Tf_Uhq_IMAIN1_JG.png


She already has Ghazi tired of her shit and the only reason they're not in open revolt is because Wu holds the reins and will shadowban their ass if she for a second faces criticism. She's had multiple cases of recorded self-victimization and of all the antis, is the one that affiliates strongest with bullshit artists like Sarah "Pedophilia is hot shit" Nyberg, Laurelai "Being a Rapist is Fine if You're an SJW" Bailey, and Randi "I've done a lot of Meth" Harper. Fucking Margaret Pless, in my talk with her on DailyKos a few days ago, felt Wu was a fucking nut. She has a few stalwarts left, but the biggest part of Anti-GG wants her gone. Did you see how she reacted on Steam? What do you think is going to happen when/if Revolution 60 launches? My Guess? One of the funniest self-destructions we've witnessed since Dobson's career.

She pulls something like this, though? She gets fed to the authorities in an eyeblink. By the Antis, no less, who will be happy to see her go. With a long history of self victimhood and a clear pattern of erratic and often incoherent behavior, she'll likely face criminal charges, and though any real long-term consequences are unlikely, she'll have been evicted from the SJW community.

Random question, since I know nothing about how Greenlight operates, but does Valve give developers a deadline once their game is green lit? Such as they have x amount of time to get it prepped for launch and if they stall for too long Valve can refuse to publish it?

Because, if Brianna's track record is any indication, the lack of an imposed deadline means we won't be seeing R60 on Steam until 2016.

That being said, I can see her setting up a mock attack or doing something as drastic as harming herself for publicity. I'm actually surprised that she hasn't already gone that route. :\
 
Well, I do remember from the great Molestia sperg out, the little twit that started it (April Davies though she insisted on being called Pinkie IRL) out of jealousy made up this one horseshit story about being stalked (that never happened) suicide attempts (that never happened, an uninvolved third party that merely gave info on laws regarding attempted suicides and hospital discharges is still facing harassment, death threats on her baby and attempts to deport her husband today)

Then someone else made up a story about two guys stalking a little girl at some brony con which multiple people confirmed was not only horseshit but would reflect just as badly on the "hero" that refused to report the imaginary stalkers for the kid's safety.

See, these things were demonstrably false but nontheless, tumblr still thinks bronies are the most eeeevil force of the patriarchy out to steal girls things (you can steal watching a show, right?) rather than a collection of amusing, perverted but technically harmless spergs.

Or several fake posts that involve "I stood up for wymyn and got punched!" that are debunked yet people still share it as if it was true.

Truth doesn't matter. At all.
Point is, I'm sure Wu will start with stories of things that don't involve physical evidence like stalking and probably rape knowing how tasteless she is.
I'd still say Zoe's every bit as awful if not worse though.

Oh, Zoe is several times worse. Wu's ultimately a harmless, delusional idiot that craves fame. Zoe?

Zoe's a legit sociopath, as far as I can tell. The more you read about her, the worse she gets. The only reason we don't have a thread about her is because, unlike Wu, she's usually pretty smart about hiding her sperg outs. She deleted her reaction to Wu's Oppression Olympics shit literally seconds after making it. She's very calculating about hiding her tracks, which is why /gamergate/ has literally made entire preservation services like Tweetsave.

Wu never quite thinks her shit through. It's like watching someone run into a glass door over and over and over. It gets kind of sad after awhile, since you'd think they'd learn their lesson.

She's got as much time as she wants, Valve doesn't really care, they just want a cut of the eventual sales. It won't be 2016 though, there's no way Rev60 made enough sales to support GSK for long so unless she wants to pay out of pocket for her employees she'll need to release something soon.

Also, I was looking through the greenlight info the other day and they mention that Valve will help with pricing and marketing. Sometime soon we should see another twitter rant when they dare to tell her that maybe she shouldn't double the price just for porting it and do some actual marketing that doesn't involve screeching to "journalists".
