I dunno if this is the right thread for this but this seems pretty crazy.

Soon she'll be sending in detectives, sending in police, sending everyone in her powerrrrrrr

 

[MerriedManJr]

It's the opposite if you ask me. Jace is right on the edge between staying a mostly-harmless crazy dude, and getting his life completely wrecked. He's already a felon in the state's eyes, and now he's got these petty, vindictive internet people trying to "win Gamergate" at his expense. I don't like it.

But law enforcement isn't like your local representative, or a business, or the staff of a convention. Brianna Wu can't sign a petition or start a phone campaign to get somebody arrested. He hasn't hurt anyone except himself and the battle prius. Pro-GG people have been trying to get tons of people arrested for stuff. It hasn't worked because you can't lobby the police like that.

He hasn't hurt anyone except himself and the battle prius.

Jace is setting himself up as a target by saying that he isn't laying off the Tupacalypse. I mean, we know that he's a quasi-harmless joker, but when a person with relatively high visibility(Wu's a nobody but has still relatively large media coverage for a nobody) is complaining about some guy who keeps threatening her, eventually LE feels the PR pressure to step in.

Of all the people who tried to get Jace sent to jail/murdered/institutionalized, I REALLY doubt we have anything to fear. I think you guys are giving these people a lot too much credit, and in doing so, validating their bullshit. Take a step back and look at this critically.

If he survived multiple attempts from Gamerfood to get him to suicide-by-police he can survive some attention whoring crybabies and faggy journalists. For all their faults Gamerfood is 30x more strategically cunning than Brianna could ever dream to be. Honestly, I was worried at first that he was going to get arrested for the crash, but that never happened... now, if what he says about not hearing anything from the cops is true, I really don't expect this to do any real harm to him. Worst case scenario, Arlington Dispatch has to brush off a few phone calls from male feminists in between their busy schedule of arresting drug dealers and Trayvon Browns... *cough*

Still NO clue why they're calling Arlington Dispatch of all places given that Jace lives in North Brookfield and this information is literally accessible via the front page of Google, especially because Arlington has much bigger fish to fry and they have no clue who Jace is since he lives halfway across the state. Just goes to show you though how clueless and ineffectual these people truly are in their imaginary "quest for social justice", though; they can't even get the fucking name of the town right, but they don't care. They just want to be able to whisper to themselves at night "I helped bring a deranged killer to justice"... and of course by this they mean "I spent 30 seconds Signal Boosting Tweets about how Death Threats Are Bad, and then I called the number I saw on Twitter and said Death Threats Are Bad And This Guy Made Them Please Arrest And Summarily Execute Him On The Orders Of The High Priestess Thank You"

Still laughing at Jezebel's "I found his real name" on the article. He says it in literally every other video. And Arlington... I mean fuck how long does it take to google PURKERDUDD91 WER HE LIV? Tyce is better at doxxing than these people.

Aside from that it's kind of notoriously difficult to get people actually arrested for threats/stalking/harassment until they do something else that's also illegal. I know a girl from college who was stalked by the same dude for literally 4 fucking years, throughout her entire higher education, despite him getting kicked out he still continued to constantly stalk and harass her off-campus despite her calling the police on literally countless occasions. They couldn't do anything from a legal standpoint and the only question they kept asking was "has he physically attacked you?" When she said "no", the conversation basically turned to "nothing we can do". So if the police don't give two shits about legitimately dangerous Elliot Roger motherfuckers, I REALLY doubt they're going to lift a finger to stop a "teen-minded internet warlord" armed with a Prius. I.E. The only "danger" Jace is facing here is being yelled at on YouTube comments... which he's certainly used to by now if nothing else.

One more thing... I like how several months ago when BuzzFeed picked him up Jace was just a "homophobic right-wing talk show host", now he's an "armed and mentally ill GamerGater". Kid's moving up in the world. Either that or Jezebel is full of shit, surprising literally nobody ever.

 

[Sammy]

The thing I don't like about the Commander's new found fame is stupid amount of new weens that will come out of this.

This. Its a double edged sword. Jace (should he get any kind of news during his internet blackout) will be thrilled with his 15 minutes of fame, but its going to bring also a lot of negative attention to him, which is unfortunate since he has a pretty good deal of that already.

Other thing most people aren't considering:

The local police department already know about Jace. To them, he's just like "Nutty Earl" the homeless man who lives downtown on a street corner and occasionally has to be dropped off at the shelter after he wanders off and shouts weird things at people in business suits that specifically remind him of his father or whatever. He's mentioned before when doing his one man GamerGate protests downtown that the police gently rolled up on him, asked him if he was Jace Connors, and informed him politely that his mother was worried about him and if he'd like to be taken home. I don't think contacting the police and telling them, "Hey, uh, there's a guy in your town who sometimes doesn't take his meds and says crazy things about video games, the Fast and Furious series of films, and about the souls of wolves," is going to do much because they already know that.

People are calling Arlington since that's apparently where the Wu-Man lives.

This is what Iwrote up "Firstly, Jace was contacted by a troll posing as Brianna Wu in order to screw with him. Jace felt intimidated and did what he has always done whenever weens show up...scream at his camera and end the livestream. Second...he hasn't hurt anyone but himself and the battle prius. People calling the cops on Jace isn't a new thing, it's been happening for years. And it's failed every time. Stop bothering the police about this, and let them do what they need to do...their damn jobs. they aren't Brianna's personal security guards. " Should I post it?

 

[Clown Doll]

People calling the cops on Jace isn't a new thing, it's been happening for years.

My concern is that this'll cause a bigger outcry because it means that years of neglect have lead to this (a big goofy dummy crashing his car on the highway and hurting only his dignity/pride). Let them clog the phone lines if they want to. Let them vent themselves into frustration and believe that they will be taken seriously(they won't), so by the time two lonely brain cells in their heads meet each other and they realize that nothing will be done about Jace because he's a harmless goofball, Wu's found a new cause of butthurt for her ass lappers to obsess over.

Being the shit media they are they'd probably take it out of context even if I say "for example- livestreamers who were swatted"

Naw I wouldn't. Both sides of GG ignore things that don't fit the narrative or twist it so it fits the story their telling. A troll goading jace into doing this is less newsworthy then a crazy man threatening to kill a game dev.

Shit media like I said

 

[Clown Doll]

Jace should realize that he should be more 'compliant' and realize that saying that he'll continue to instigate this stuff even if it's via completely peaceful means(intel gathering) is making him look like a damn stalker to Wu and even though the whole "Wu-capolypse" as a concept is something normal people can't take seriously it's going to be seen as a continuation of Jace harassing Wu. Jace did a fairly good job in trying to explain that "You're out of your whack, I just wanted to do some cool videos and this shouldn't be taken so seriously", but he should follow it up with trying to shield himself from the worst heat by not appearing like he's going to keep continuing doing this until he's stopped.

Yeah, it's a huge kick in the nuts to Jace as far as his professional pride is concerned, but it might help alleviate pressure against him from the "This guy keeps threatening me!"-perspective.

Doesn't mean he should apologize, he didn't hurt anyone besides himself, but he should stress it that he's not 'going after' anyone right now or in the future.

 

[stets]

I suspect Wu Flynt is calling Jace "the Commander" to make it harder for people to look him up and see how ridiculous this is.

That's part of it, but I think the main reason she doesn't mention his name is because she's a self-obsessed, shamelessly histrionic attention whore. She wants to be the focus of all of the attention, and it's a lot easier to do that by battling a nameless enemy.

 

[Randall Fragg]

Here, I posted this on Fark. Feel free to edit and post it on any site covering Jace.

Spoiler

Okay, I've been following this guy's antics for a while now, and I can fill everyone in on who he is.
This is Jace Connors, leader of the stoner gamer militia Deagle Nation, and Internet Tough Guy personified. No, He does not have a real gun. He only owns spring powered plastic airsoft guns.

https://www.youtube.com /watch?v=mB54bnt1PqQ
Jace and Deagle Nation started out back in 2012/2013 as a gaming clan that got into fights with in internet trolls. In 2013, Jace went on to a tour of duty in Iraq/Afghanistan (He got sent off to Jesus camp). During this time, his friend/minion Tyce Andrews took over and stole his stuff.

When Jace got back, he and Tyce got into a civil war,

which ended with The Trial of Tyce Andrews

where Tyce and Jace made up. At least, until Tyce showed everyone Jace's "Porn Stash". So, Jace begins doing livestreams of him playing video games and doing "Fact Zone" (Think Alex Jonoes on weed), which typically end like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6-rSrB39Kw&list=PLTrIzVD2xEpI3N20VB5 I FJiuu4jXyYW92 or this

or this

Also, Tyce shows up on a few streams, leading to this:

That last one leads to Tyce doubting the nature of reality

So, Tyce and Jace begin working together on "Operation Tupacalypse", where they send their friend Eli to Israel to rescue Tupac from an "Islamic Rap Bunker" and assassinate the former prime minister of Palestine, with the promise that Eli will get an X-Box One when he returns.

Eli gets high, plays Ruinscape, and wanders around the desert:

In order to fund Tupacalypse, Tyce and Jace start a weed growing operation in Eli's cabin.
Remember the "Afghan Soldiers wander off a US Military base" story from a few months back? Yeah, Jace and Tyce believed that it was a terrorist plot to infect McDonalds chicken nuggets with Ebola. This lead to the MISIS incident, where Deagle Nation bought a bunch of mice, put them in Eli's cabin, and gave them chicken nuggets to see if they would turn into Muslims. Tyce was kicked off the project after he attempted to teach the mice how to streets race by taping them to hotwheels cars, which led to the mice getting loose and eating the weed supplies.
I should probably give a word about Tyce here. Tyce is a semi-literate neo-nazi who huffs jenkim, is a self proclaimed "analchest", and believes that skeletons are a race of people who are oppressed by the government. He got two lives streams to himself: T-Zone one, where he plays Ethnic Cleansing and complains that it's too hard because of Obama (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFGGra8Ymzw), and T-Zone Two, where he is nearly brought to tears by the sight of a skeleton in a blender (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usEPbi2zqH8)
Tyce ends up causing a rift between him and Jace after he and his neo-nazi juggalo pals attempt to drive to Ferguson to start a race war. Tyce realizes this creepy school shooter manifesto https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymsjouPY02g and goes dark.
And then Tupacalypse comes crashing down. Eli's parents, after about 105 days, find out that Eli is in Israel at his grandparents. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UiK7xOl_BQYhttps://www.youtube.com /watch?v=2vianED9s-U
Eli took his grandad's scooter for a joy ride, got caught by the police, and was deported back to America.
Jace rushes to the cabin in an attempt to clear out evidence of any wrong doing, and is ambushed by Tyce and the Whyte Justice Army and the Race War Van, a van with swastikas painted on it. They proceed to get into an airsoft shootout. Eventually, Jace fends off the neo-nazis and picks up Eli from the airport. Tyce and Deagle Nation get into a twitter fight because Tyce made off with Eli's X-Box One funds. This results in a duel between Jace and Tyce. Tyce shows up with nunchucks and a katana. Jace and Eli show up with airsoft guns.
Tyce gets his ass kicked: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=cd0_1416355576
After that Tyce does a "Fergzone" stream https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CiB_-4ELgg, which consists of him dressing up in a skeleton mask and goofy blonde wig and rambling about attractive and successful African Americans https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6cxjjM3kNo Later, he and "Ston Tone" attempt to form a "Federation of McDonalds to start a race war, and attempt to drive to Area 51 on Christmas to free the skeletons. Their car breaks down in Ohio and they have to call their parents for help https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lDkiuM5Tds
So that pretty much brings us up to speed on these guys. Jace and Eli lived together in Eli's cabin for a while, and they're a real life stoner comedy.

I still can't tell if they're just crazy or an insanely elaborate troll. Point is, Jace is an idiot and is more of a danger to himself than anyone else.

 

[blackie toy]

I dunno if this is the right thread for this but this seems pretty crazy.

I'm sure they also told her that they're going to do something about it, as well as the budget, national defense, national security, privacy, social security, healthcare, and whatever else triggers voters into voting.

By the way, you can be in contact with members of Congress too. It's called a telephone.

It's pointless to post it. Unless you're an extablished member of Gawker's commenting crew you'll never get out of the grey but will be mocked by the regulars just because they can.

Edit: more explanation

Gawker's Kinja commenting system is reviled by everyone, even their own writers, and Gawker has spent at least 5 million* building it themselves. After Jezebel (one of the most trolled arms of Gawker and roundly mocked third-wave feminist sites on the net) received a glut of burner accounts posting "rape" and gore gifs, Gawker brought back their Karma system and banned all gifs and pictures from displaying. They walked back on the second part because their commentors blew a gasket when they couldn't post maymay reaction jiffs on articles about dad fucking or letters from a 100% guilty prisoner given space to say the people he killed deserved it for being in front of his knife and he isn't sorry.

Anyone who isn't vetted or is on a burner account gets thrown in to the "greys", which are greyed out comments that don't even show up until that comment is approved by a Valued Member of the community. The only way to become a valued member is to be vouched for effectively by someone already out of the grey, and that privilege can be revoked by any of the writers or moderators without notice or warning.

Seeing as how Jezebel writers and readers had doctors crudely turn their funny bones into vaginas, they won't approve anyone new who comments anything but "kill all white men named The Commander for his rapecrimes against decency"

__________

* Former-Gawker President Nick Denton announced that Sam Biddle cost his company six figures in ad revenue for picking a fight with Gamergate, and that Kinja cost him "five times what Sam did".

 

[MerriedManJr]

Oh sweet Christ she's actually fucking calling him "The Commander" instead of using his real name. Just like Eli. Lol at "I found his real name" no shit he says it in every other video. "The Commander"... Call it what you want, she's totally going tsundere for him. Can we please start flooding the Jezebel comments with JaceXBrianna romance fics now? Only partially joking.

I tried to post my romance fic, but all comments require approval from a moderator and I don't think they'll approve of my steamy prose. Here it is for anyone interested:

Spoiler: Dangerously Erotic

Jace Connors walked into the room, his wolf-style anime hair flowing in the midnight breeze. The balcony which he had parkoured onto was behind him, with a view of all the lights and glamour of Arlington after dark. He walked briskly over to the bed where his beloved post-op transwomyn lay. Suddenly, his heightened combat senses noticed somebody creeping up behind him. He used his WWE wresting techniques to disarm and subdue the assailant quickly and non-lethally. It was Frank Wu, noted Asian and feminist ally extraordinaire. He left the beta male unconscious on the floor and continued to the bed.


A figure stirred beneath the sheets. Jace pulled them away to reveal his “lady” love. She was radiant in the moonlight, her adam's apple barely visible and her hair not as crazy as it usually looks. Jace leaned close to the sleeping figure and whispered huskily “I'm the fucking Commander.” Brianna awoke with a fright, but her fear quickly turned to joy as she recognized her one true love standing beside her. In a silent invitataion, she began slipping her “this is what a feminist looks like” panties off. Jace removed his Affliction hoodie and undid his jorts slowly, relishing every moment he could spend in his lover's gaze. Brianna grabbed Jace by his Marine Corps dogtags and pulled him in for a deep, sensuous kiss. His thick, manly lips pressing against her slightly less thick, manly lips. She broke this kiss and whispered daintily “aren't you gonna put it in, bro?” Jace smiled and moved his Marine-trained hands towards her not at all mangled and disgusting “vagina.” In his coolest anime voice he said “we have all the time in the world, my love.”
