- ladyattis 5y agoOr maybe you can learn to keep to yourself when someone says they don't want to interact with you? I don't get why folks like yourself can't stop being antisocial boors for five minutes especially on the Internet. Next, you'll tell us that private moderation is unlawful it if doesn't conform to your world view.
- ryanlol 5y agoSuggesting that “chad_stevens” is engaged in these abusive behaviours just because he doesn’t agree with the perhaps-exaggerated tone of the article is taking it a bit far, don’t you think? Perhaps he’s just a normal person who likes to play games and doesn’t do anything creepy? I think it’s perfectly normal for people to react negatively when their previously quiet private clubhouses are attracting attention like this.

- ryanlol 5y agoOutside of the internet, I feel like I’m far more likely to hear stuff like that from women than men.
- ngokevin 5y agoFake game? It's an immersive environment. My wife was harassed in Rec Room, a game that looks like it's for kids, it definitely was not comfortable. People are going to get triggered differently just as some may have by headlines on HN, and feel the need to make a throwaway to protect themselves against internet comments
- MerelyMortal 5y agoIt sounds like you're trying to rationalize bad behavior. Actions have consequences, no matter the medium (physical or digital). Where is the line drawn between "real" and "fake"? Who gets to determine that line? Who gets to decide if that line was crossed? Where does it say that it is "meant to be an escape"? "going to be harassed", most likely, but does it have to be that way, no. I argue the harassers are the ones who are not mature and need to grow up.
