Atkinson believes gamers are 'dirty tricksters and criminal'

News from Starks - Thursday, 21 January 2010 @ 1:07pm

I just don't understand why he needs to go about his business in this manner. He's stooping to a level he claims we're at then painting us as the lowest of the low in society.

To sum it up, he's basically had a go at David Doe's Gamers4Croydon party, which is challenging Atkinson in two months for his seat. Whislt I have no doubt that David Doe is an underdog, such absolute disrespect for Doe and for gamers in Australia is just...

I'm speechless that a man his age has resorted to school boy bully tactics and the use of public power and voice to 'crush' a very legitimate politcal party. Why do people keep electing him?

Gamespot AU's Laura Parker has written an excellent article about Atkinson and his new nemesis David Doe, in which Atkinson accuses the new party of "dirty tricks" and stops barely short of calling all gamers "criminals".

"I assume the Gamers4Croydon campaign will involve criminal activities and dirty tricks, which is what I've come to expect from gamers," he said. "Regardless, I think they will struggle to get even 1 percent of the votes, and their campaign will actually discredit the public campaign in support for R18+ rather than enhance its chances. They [Gamers4Croydon] might do better leading up to the election, but at this stage they’re not doing anything. What's more, David Doe has to stop taking pleasure in people abusing me."

We've been very impressed with Doe's stance and standard of behaviour and discourse, and take issue with Atkinson's words, both about him and about us.
