The best work, Tremendous work. Yuuge service biglyAh.
I've heard fabulous things about their work.
Naw, I saw him getting fired because he patted a significant contributor, voice of the community, and hardcore fanboy on the head and said, "Let the experts handle this"
I honestly think without that one tweet, he would have skated.
One of my friends lost his job for tweeting that he appreciated his boss taking him out to lunch everyday, but wished he could spend it with his wife instead sometimes and tagging the company. That was a ridiculous firing. She went off on a prominent community member / customer who respectfully disagreed with her while representing the company. Only game journalists would be shocked someone got fired for that.
I’m also kind of amazed by the “she didn’t ask for your feedback” reactions. Why would you post it on Twitter of all places then? Also, when can you ever write something publicly and not expect feedback?
So which gaming websites actually handled this nonsense in factual, truthful manner?
I know Game Informer did. Anyone else?
Oh look the majority of 'game' journos side against the gaming community at large and against a game developer; yet again. Color me (un)surprised.
If people can’t see it, they are either being willfully ignorant or I’d have to question their intelligence.The bright side of this is that more things like this happen, the more people's eyes are opened in regards to the current quality of the games media.
~A keen observerThe name of the highest award in journalism is the Pulitzer Prize. Named after a rich New York media mogul who used his position in the media and the Democratic Party to print propaganda pieces for them and against his political opponents. He basically coined the term "Yellow Journalism" with his actions, and he was personally responsible for starting the Spanish American War. In short, the Pulitzer Prize is named after a more extreme version of Rupert Murdoch.
The press didn't become shit. They've ALWAYS been shit. They were founded in shit.
The whole GW2 community has moved on already, yet a tiny minority who know nothing of the game or situation have decided it shall be their next battleground. Absolutely disgusting.It blows my mind that some people on various message boards, well mostly just one, and websites are actually defending her.
Maybe an apology would have sufficed if she was actually willing to give one. I'm guessing they don't regret firing her based on what she's said since then.That Jessica Price was an asshole but firing her seems a bit extreme.
Here is the statement of the CEOThat Jessica Price was an asshole but firing her seems a bit extreme.
Indeed. Here's her talking about one of her other previous employers back in 2017: -Publicly burning bridges with past employers always looks good when applying for new jobs. "Should we hire her? I mean, look at how she tore apart her last job." Unless a company is 100% committed to "choosing a side" and is willing to deal with the baggage that comes with this woman, the safest move is to not hire her.

are absolutely disgusting and only reinforces the bias the writer has against TB and anyone questioning the GG movement is a "gen Z that only heard of Gamergate through 9gag memes". I don't know how anyone from the administration could've allowed this article to go on the website.Clearly Bain didn’t do enough to atone for his perceived Gamergate sins and if there is a lesson in all of this, it’s that one must make peace and settle any internet beef you have with feminists while you’re still living. History is written by the victors, after all.
Genna jsut posted this. I think she knows now how people again attack TB.... These people are fucking awful.A bit off-topic but still regarding people shitting on TB's grave we have Forbes https://archive.is/Xbihh#selection-1667.2-1667.18 . I didn't want to make a new thread, mainly because I can't but also because I don't know if it warrants one. If anyone else wants to do it, go ahead.
It's absolutely disgusting where people go to justify hating a guy that died of cancer at the age of 30. Quotes like

No doubt, I've watched this guy's videos since his Cataclysm Beta although I stopped watching his recent stuff.You are aware that you, also, could be biased?
Shhhhhhhht not too loud!It's funny how lefties claim it's a private twitter account yet they try to get people fired all the time over twitter posts.
It blows my mind that some people on various message boards, well mostly just one, and websites are actually defending her.
I honestly can't tell if that's someone trolling or not. I mean, they end with "He's not an expert. Why should he have any ideas?". Surely nobody can say that and actually mean it?!That last comment slays me, "Don't explain things to women".

At first i wasn't sure if it might've been sarcasm. But further post from that person made it clear.I honestly can't tell if that's someone trolling or not. I mean, they end with "He's not an expert. Why should he have any ideas?". Surely nobody can say that and actually mean it?!

They were trolling. I read through most of that thread. It's the first time I've really read that forum since the split and thought it was almost decent at first, but then Deroir and the CEO of ArenaNet started getting turned into villains.I honestly can't tell if that's someone trolling or not.

And these zealots think they are better than us. It's baffling how anyone can look at those bans and ever return to that site.What gets you banned and what doesn't continues
This time the "who you are" edition:
I'd rather enjoy game designers from afar. Lol
I have to wonder if Japan has this issue in their culture. Are there ever articles in Famitsu or other Japanese gaming sites about game designers going off on their fans? It's such a common issue in North America and in the west.

What gets you banned and what doesn't:
I just listened to it. Just bizaare.I’m already seeing the predictable defence force in the latest wave of podcasts.
The Giant Bomb guys stumbling and mumbling their way to the victim defence. It’s hilarious listening.
So completely gutless.
The only one I can think of is Kamiya. Just don't ask him frequently asked questions and you should be fine lol.I'd rather enjoy game designers from afar. Lol

That’s exactly how I see these guys and their ilk. I would bet my left nut, that if you had a private convo with most of them, you’d get a completely different story.I just listened to it. Just bizaare.
Living in san francisco for over 8 years, you begin to notice a sort of two-facedness peple have, I don't have any better words for it. Their are things you are supposed to say in public, but if you get someone alone and a little drunk, the truth slowly comes out. Listening to that sent off my bullshit alarm
