They see [[Gamergate]] as something of a mistake, mainly based on their paranoia, elitism, and what the media says. Plus, they believe the media's hype and backed, supported, and defended the honor and words of people, who will later betrayed them. <ref> GG is...(KiA) -[https://archive.fo/ZBBBu]</ref> An example of this was when a social scientist, Rebecca HG (aka 8BitBecca), posted a lengthy explanation of media influence (As a rebuttle to Totalbiscuit's the media influence theory).  <ref> GG is Killing VG (Tumblr) -[https://archive.is/bRKdS]</ref><ref>GG is Killing the Professional Archival of Video Games (NeoGaf) - [https://archive.is/5GI09]</ref> The scientist stated that there are those in the academics that loved video games, seeing a potential in them, working for years to make games a legitimate tool for education, study, and are making progress. But most importantly, for the main public to start taking games seriously and for academics to recognize games as an art form. Until, Gamergate happened, the work that the scientists were doing for a decade came crashing down.

Many in NeoGAF felt that they had the higher word overall and knew better, this was an easy weakness as more and more news and information came out. Which many many of its residents found themselves questioning tthemselves and their opinions, even questioning the motives behind those above them.

[[index.php?title=File:Logo.png|[[File:/images/thumb/c/c9/Logo.png/50px-Logo.png|50x45px|Logo.png]]]]
A wave of censorship and silencing rocked the community, as its members worked tirelessly to avoid the reality of being in a losing battle. To many of them, its better to remove a huge portion of their community, than to take responsibility and the reality they are now facing.
 
  
To them, Gamergate's identity was something of a fad, something that they underestimated and though it would mean nothing in time. To them, they thought they could use the consumer revolt to promote their pride further and it ended up as becoming a great mistake.
