Those long posts don't cover that red neck boy
^^ Holy shit man, do you have a subscription on Dead Horse magazine? Because you are beating up someone with one, quite obviously.I think that it is indicative of a certain confirmation bias wrt "Resetera apoligism". However, I must commend you for admitting to the misunderstanding. I did not feel it important to state in howfar the statement of the Resetera member was inappropiate, but to give you a clearer picture of my position on that: There are two issues with the statement, which are equally problematic to me, but when it comes to consistency, only the second is something that I would expect the person to respect as an issue.
(1) It is not OK to take allegations for a fact, we have courts for that.
(2) Even assuming Evilore is autmatically guilty, the accusation is not one of rape, but merely sexual harrassment, since he, according to the account of the accusant retreated upon rejection and there was no sexual intercourse.
There also is one thing that I might add which is not an issue with the rape point per sé but one with consistency. It was long well-known and publically stated by Evilore himself how he mistreated another woman at a bar. I would assume that both misdemeanors are pretty similar. While the uninvited assgrab may have less severity on its own when compared to coming nude into the shower, the person who Evilore allegedly got into shower with was much closer to him, so from my perspective at least, both stories are pretty similar in severity, context considered. Since no one seemed to have cared for the older, well-known incident (outside of Gamegate people that is) it is hypocritical to leave the forum because of new very similar allegations. Note that the prior incident was confirmed by Evilore to be true and he did not appear to have a bad conscience about it, so an argument of the kind "well, but he said he knew it was wrong, so I was shocked to hear it is actually a pattern" is invalid. Therefore, I think it should be irrelevant whether the second allegation is true, with the first one being confirmed and not something Evilore said to feel bad about, it is hypocritical and inconsistent to me that peopl abandon the forum because of the allegations.
Daily reminder that you should not work at a graveyard as you love digging up old bones.
