What if the owner has a different opinion than you of what is offending and what is not? They get to remove sites you think are good and keep sites you think are bad. In the end, the only fair and objective way to filter content is the rule

Is this really a style though? I always assumed it was due to writers being non-native english speakers, and applying their primary language's noun gendering to english (In my case, in French all nouns are gendered)

Tall, round face, short hair, wearing glasses, with mustache and beard, thick eyebrows. There are still plenty of ways to describe someone's face without using colors, but to be perfectly honest I'm terrible at describing people I

A bit off topic, but I hope I'll find I'm not alone: my "mind" is color-blind to some degree. It's very hard for me to remember colors, if someone cut their hair I'll notice it easily, but if they change color

The first time I ever seen this portal gimmick in a game was in the Wheel of Time game (released in 99), although it was used only once in the whole game my mind was blown.

I'd rather say that ads "work" in the sense that you don't have to intently watch or listen to an ad for it to affect your brain, just seeing or hearing it is enough. Now, if "working" means you actually buy so

Someone very concerned about ads whitelists can also use multiple ad blocking extensions. It would take every creator to accept the bribe for the ads to go through. Well, if the extension starts injecting ads it's another story...

IMO it was also a naming problem. GamerGate doesn't refer to anything precisely, it just encompass the whole mess. The ones who had interesting claims should have forked the movement under an unambigous name. It was impossible to be fu
