Shadowstalker16: And a new orientation is born : https://www.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/3wr0ps/hi_im_journofluid_and_you_can_be_too/
Seriously this needs to be pushed as far as it'll go.
i honnestly couldnt tell if the article/post you linked was something serious or jokeful... but at least it made me smile either way.

i like the use of twisted logics usually

Its a joke out of the stuff they say about gender and applying to journalism, in reference to stuff they may do when their shitty journalism is criticized. Basically, a journalist to the AAA devs whose favor they need and blogger to the indies who may rely on them.

Journofluid! I'm gonna use it instead of 'journalist' from now on to refer to the unethical people.

aaah, ok... i think i got the whole thing figured out now......

also, would it be called "journofluid" because it often implies exchange of body fluids with the so called journalist ? (i am trying to guess)

It is a play on genderfluid. Gender fluid is a gender identity which refers to a gender which varies over time. A gender fluid person may at any time identify as male, female, neutrois, or any other non-binary identity, or some combination of identities.

OOoooh i see... didn't know about the genderfluid concept. Now the whole post makes more sense to me, thank you too.

Thinking of leaving this world? Don't depsair. NASA is advertising for Astronauts for Mars mission. Pay is around US$145k/annum. Not bad if you've had enought of this planet! But hurry ...

Djaron: ...

as i said, i think the best possible thing would be normalized anonymous/hiddenuser web api for any/every major digital game distribution platform (steam, gog, desura, gamergate, amazon ?, xbla, psn) but it would imply "cooperation" among every actor in the market, unless the whole initiative comes from an independant third party and then each platform would be responsible for designing a plugin/bridge for that normalized system

but, hell, yes, it would be fantastic to see something next to user review like:

User sumthing (don't own this game / played this game 0 hour): this game suxk blah blah blah ranting bs completely gameplay irrelevant...

User Another (own this game on plateformA/platformB, played this game total xxx hours)

oh yeah this way, i could really TRUST reviews. Of course as itself it is yet not enough cause out of context. I mean, i'm not much the puzzle/point and click game myself, for exemple (aside from FEW exception), so no matter i play a given point n click 5 or 50 hours, i would not like it. Though, with some sort of globalized aggregated "Gamer ID Card", if you see i don't own many Pnclick games, and if you see me giving a good review of one, that will tell something: 1) it may be too easy for seasonned PnC lovers (but not necesseraly) and 2) it can appeal people not really in mood for such genre

knowing the reviewer and its taste matters at least as much as the review's content

shamefully, i'm completely NO web developper or web designer, and have no connection required in the market to bring such idea outside of cloudy dream. but still... would be great
It would take a massive amount of effort and co-ordination on the part of all the different parties involved. Maybe they could get some help from NSA X-D Actually I've always thought that might be kind of useful. You know, contact your local gov't spooks "Ah, hello is that the secret service? Yeah I made a post on 15th Dec on gog.com and I wanna check what I said could you find it for me?" Of course being the gov't there would be an extortionate surcharge!

And nobody gets the feeling that implies a lack of mental stability? Seriously, there is something wrong with all those made up genders. Just a few days ago a man abandoned his family and duties to become a 6 year old girl. The slippery slope argument is starting reasonable so often lately.

It's unbelievable how easy the outrage-mob is baited. oO That's messed up.
I wouldn't even have come up with the idea, even less believing in it to work.

That's got to be an elaborate hoax, right?

Yeah, but they took it seriously and ran with it and it ended up on the PC do's and don't list at some University.
I guess the point is this stuff is getting so crazy that it's getting difficult to tell the hoax and pranks from the real sh*t.

I wish it was a hoax. Until now it seems to be quite real. Even Sargon made a video about it. Seriously, humans are losing their sanity at an alarming rate. I guess we are the only species with such a desire for self destruction.

no need for sarcasm here, sir... if i allowed myself such an idea, it is because i already saw websites and online services that managed to interact with some of the platforms of digital game distribution

i once saw a website that could interact with your XBLA gamertag in some way, another that could aggregate some infos from both xbla and psn accounts, there is the "steam id" stuff for third parties websites. So i guess those API already exist, to a yet lesser extent, and they could be polished, extended and a new online service could build interacting data channels with them to build up an aggregated database of some sort

government is out of the topic, we all know they already can see our genitals on our smartphone's isp cloud storage :)

What? No, I wasn't mocking you. The idea of a service linking everything together reminded me that it already exists in the form of the massive state surveillance we are all subjected to everywhere by gov't and corporations - and yes, we're definitely just a microchip implant away from them knowing and controlling every intimate detail of our lives.

ah ok, i didnt got it this way...
tbh our governements worldwide are completely hungry with personnal datas (in my country it had become even more insane than the usa, at least theorically, given a "new" law that was forced upon us a few months ago...needless to say it will grow even worse, if earthly possible, with the recent attacks)

problem is, all those governement lack the raw power to "meaningfully" and "usefully" process those datas they are collecting

when you neither don't know what you want to do nor how to do it with data you collect, you just are in a dead end

GAFA works fine at such job because they still are rather focused and narrowed about collected data's use they need and want.

and to get back on track, what a possible "league of gamer" could do with gaming data would be rather "easy". if keeping focus, that's it :)

oh wow... i would laugh at the childish pun from 4chan if it were not unraveling such a depressing truth !
this whole mess story just show how those people are hyppocrite, blind, fanatical, hysterical and very HIGHLY dangerous... both for those they pretend to "protect" and from plain commoners or neutral folks

after that i wont be surprise if in a close futur, "sjw" activists will add themselves to the list of lethal offender who go on shooting spree as we here already endured one month ago, and united states did one week ago...

it is already now HARD to spot out a religious fanatic... but it will be hard to spot SJW in your vicinity before a physical lethal assault... plus, those are way many more, and are not under the "watch" of intelligence service.Here in my country, we had yet a few environemental activist (the pacific sort of dude, like: clean criminal record, no public call to physical distrust, attended meeting for rather unobjectable causes such as "stop bury nuclear waste in our soil" or "stop killing young unarmed student with defensive grenade please", and yet they were victim of swat breakin, violence, put in custody and now "home imprisonnment"...
jesus, could you just watch out for sjw furies instead ? environemental folks are no threat to me, we would better be concerned with our own space floating rockwe live in... but "anti misoltoe" paladins and their like, well, they would shred me and my family for no particular reason.

ok it is official, i'm going depressed...
