    We're All Gamers Together: Why Harassment Has To Stop

    Yes, a specific group of people who are provably doing bad things. I didn't take offense at it because I'm not doing bad things.

    We're All Gamers Together: Why Harassment Has To Stop

    Guys, this conversation is literally not about us. This conversation is not about hypotheticals that could happen. It is about horrible things that are happening to when. The title of the blog post was provocative, but that was because these problems are being ignored. People need to stop...

    We're All Gamers Together: Why Harassment Has To Stop

    Yes, I'm the one not participating. One of the first things that they teach us when you study journalism is that there is such a thing as an "unanswerable question," which is something that is phrased in such a way that no matter what the answer is...your answer is wrong. It is usually referred...

    We're All Gamers Together: Why Harassment Has To Stop

    I'm not sure what article you're talking about, outside of a link to the post in the lede to show why this piece was written, I don't actually reference anything from that piece. All of the incidents discussed in my present article came from interviews with women over the course of the last...

    We're All Gamers Together: Why Harassment Has To Stop

    I spent three days read the emails and IMs of women. This isn't being made up. Not seeing something isn't the same as it not happening.

    We're All Gamers Together: Why Harassment Has To Stop

    Another piece talking about the harassment of women in tabletop gaming has surfaced on the internet. At least one of the incidents related in that piece has been substantiated as being true, so I am willing to accept that there is more truth in that article. Whether gamers, or geeks in general...

    The Play's The Thing: The Importance Of Playtesting Games

    I have been thinking about playtesting the last few days.

Playtesting is something that should...
