==Gamergate and Zoe==
==Gamergate and Zoe==
Wizchan is notable among cultural critics for being a central drama hotspot of [[gamergate]], a controversy surrounding a woman named Zoe allegedly cheating on her bf and sleeping with multiple game industry people, including her boss, to get her game greenlit, promoted, and well reviewed.  Accusations are that wizchan users or Zoe herself (allegedly) put threatening messages on the board directed to Zoe.  Gamers made the story of [[gamergate]] to be about a woman who traded sex for power instead of through making a product that would be enjoyable even to women.  The media made it about gamers not wanting strong female video game protagonists, as if Zoe's game, "Depression Quest", would have been an asset to humanity.  Honestly incelwiki doesn't have time to document this autism, which is documented to death elsewhere.
