As a result of their involvement, the [[oxymoron|gaming news]] site "Destructoid" was exposed as a massive hotbed of [[corruption]], nepotism and [[sexual harassment]]. | |||
==Allistair Pinsof gets illegaly fired for exposing Chloe== | |||
[[File:GG Batch14.png|thumb|right|400px|Destructoid drama in a nutshell]] | |||
[[homo|Allistair Pinsof]], a [[oxymoron|Destructoid journalist]] who knew Sagal and was aware he is running a scam, decided to run a story about it. However, not before spending much of his time trying to convince him to stop. His coworkers knew about it and laughed at him wasting his time on some [[psychotic]] tranny, but that didn't stop them from stabbing him in the back and acting innocent in the events that followed. | |||
When all else failed, Allistair got the green light from his editor and told Sagal that he was running the story. This was the moment when he made his first [[suicide]] threat. Not wanting to be blamed for it, he told Sagal that he won't expose his fraud if he doesn't try to kill himself and everything was done... or was it? [[Nope]]. Several hours after promising not to try and off himself for [[attention]], Sagal went ahead and did it anyway. | |||
Allistair Pinsof decided that, since he has broken his promise not to [[an hero]], and since, now that he was safe in the hospital, he could no longer credibly threaten suicide, he was free to reveal that it was a scam, not on Destructoid, but on his personal site unlinked to the site he was employed at. | |||
The internet trannies were assdestroyed. They didn't get preferential treatment so, in their mind, exposing fraud by a tranny is [[Bigot|bigotry]] regardless of that freak of nature being guilty or not. Pinsof's editor, in turn, caved to the pressure and fired him, possibly while [[drunk]]. | |||

Revision as of 12:36, 9 January 2015
As a result of their involvement, the gaming news site "Destructoid" was exposed as a massive hotbed of corruption, nepotism and sexual harassment.
Allistair Pinsof gets illegaly fired for exposing Chloe
Allistair Pinsof, a Destructoid journalist who knew Sagal and was aware he is running a scam, decided to run a story about it. However, not before spending much of his time trying to convince him to stop. His coworkers knew about it and laughed at him wasting his time on some psychotic tranny, but that didn't stop them from stabbing him in the back and acting innocent in the events that followed.
When all else failed, Allistair got the green light from his editor and told Sagal that he was running the story. This was the moment when he made his first suicide threat. Not wanting to be blamed for it, he told Sagal that he won't expose his fraud if he doesn't try to kill himself and everything was done... or was it? Nope. Several hours after promising not to try and off himself for attention, Sagal went ahead and did it anyway.
Allistair Pinsof decided that, since he has broken his promise not to an hero, and since, now that he was safe in the hospital, he could no longer credibly threaten suicide, he was free to reveal that it was a scam, not on Destructoid, but on his personal site unlinked to the site he was employed at.
The internet trannies were assdestroyed. They didn't get preferential treatment so, in their mind, exposing fraud by a tranny is bigotry regardless of that freak of nature being guilty or not. Pinsof's editor, in turn, caved to the pressure and fired him, possibly while drunk.
To show he doesn't hate trannies (why would anyone want to do that?) and save his future journalist career. Morally shattered, he went to "Gamers Against Bigotry", a site run by an insult to comedians everywhere and a self-confessed faggot, and reached out to both Sagal and several of the crossdressing faggots who had sent him death threats, and asked them to join his charity. As an interesting sidenote, the site's been hacked for being unbearably faggy.

The struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother. The end.
Or was it? The entire drama was forgotten until GamerGate started and dug it back up when a blog did an interview with Pinsof where he revealed what actually happened, which was: Besides all that was mentioned already, his boss, Yanier "Niero" Gonzalez, privately fired him in an email, and then told everyone publicly that Pinsof was only suspended. Then he waited for him to tweet something so that he could pretend he fired him because of his tweets.

But Wait! There's More: Holly Green Sexual Harassment Accusations
But the drama didn't end there.
At the start of GG, Holly Green, a writer for Gameranx, went on a twitter meltdown accusing the industry of corruption and saying she was sexually harassed and fired for complaining about it. Everyone ignored the loony and forgot about it when she deleted those tweets. Until that article about Destructoid came out and people realized who had sexually harassed her. Yep, it was someone at Destructoid.
All of Holly's work has been deleted from the Dtoid site like Pinsof had been threatened would happen to him and Niero (in a display of prefect professionalism) responded to her claims by saying that she was a crazy, drunken lunatic who assaulted him and was on crazy pills, saying (in a hilariously pathetic excuse) that it isn't his responsibility to back-up his writer's work, announced that the people who work for him aren't real journalists. Ian Miles Cheong (her current employer) however said that Green was a perfect employee and that Niero is lying. Which is funny because Ian is anti-GamerGate, so either they didn't think to match their stories or Ian was forced to choose between defending his anti-GG narrative and his employee... Not that it changes the fact that he was probably the one who made her delete her tweets about being sexually assaulted.

Anthony Burch tries to defend Dtoid, instead, retardedly implicates them further
In comes Anthony Burch, loser and writer for the "Barderlands 2" developer "GearBox". In an attempt to prove that GamerGate isn't about ethical violations, Burch exposed that everyone in the industry is making a lot of fucking ethical violations! Besides mentioning that Polygon's editor hired his brother, Burch also explained that the only reason his game got a good review on Dtoid was that he is friends with some of the staff. To him this was proof positive that GamerGate only cares about attacking women, despite the fact no one knew he was friends with them until he exposed that fact at that very moment.
In conclusion, everyone laughed at how stupid Burch is, at the fact the only reason anyone even knows about him is because of his far more successful sister, at the fact he is in an "open relationship" with his wife and she is constantly fucking other guys while he isn't fucking anyone including his own wife despite turning "bisexual" in pure desperation (I am seriously not making any of this up).
Burch is still making an ass of himself on twitter where he has to block anyone who tweets at him with the word "Cuckold".
Doxing "The Fine Young Capitalists"
The hits just keep on coming with good old Dtoid.
Now it turns out that the one who originally doxed TFYC and gave those dox to Zoe was a writer at Dtoid. When confronted about it "Neiro", in classic Dtoid fashion, tried to lie and say that the guy had never written anything for him, only spell-checked articles and has not been a part of the site for over 5 year. But he was exposed again within moments with a simple google search that found the guy wrote entire articles for them just a few months ago.
Faftermath: Dtoid only slightly less shit than before
After all this exposed, amazingly, someone actually took some responsibility. Dale North, the editor-in-chief, realizing what a shithole he has been working at, said he didn't know about any of this shit and quit. Before leaving he also changed Dtoid's disclosure policy to be less shit (while still pointing out that everyone who wanted this is a misogynist anyway). Later Max Scoville also quit the site following a GamerGate induced fit or autism.
In Conclusion
