Counterpoint, they charged money for Blizzcon tickets and this is what they gave the fans. Sorry, but this isn’t “gamers rise” this is “fans raging” and for good reason if they had blown money on a blizzcon ticket.

Yeah, Toby has already come out and definitively stated that this is an entirely different world from Undertale. What’s more, he also stated in fairly plain terms that Delta Rune doesn’t in any way affect Undertale’s ending. Whatever ending you got in Undertale is still canon and nothing here’s going to change that.

Tha…

*Reads your article.*

My, it must be great to go through life without integrity! 9_9

“Be respectful!”

While true this article is still glossing over and making Price a victim of others instead of her own actions.

The repercussions you speak of are based on lies. Prices blaming sexism and mysogyny, bots and reddit mobs instead of her own actions is disgusting. There is nothing else to infer here. Thats it. There is no “ripple” its simply sensationalism. Read the offending tweets yourself. Anyone making a mountain out of this…

Considering that this developer was also cheering when Total Biscuit passed on, it’s pretty clear that she’s a venomous toxic individual. If I had to guess, she was probably already on thin ice when this incident occurred. If so, it shouldn’t be a surprise to anybody that it ended this way.

PS: Yeah this article really…

Looks more like you haven’t checked HER messages and blindly believe this verbal diarrhea of an article, its pretty clear who’s the vile person in that discussion.

Yes, cause construction workers are clearly out there publically representing their companies in a highly visible manner daily. 9_9

Again, if you are representing your company, if you’re in a position where your statements are highly publicized, then you can’t get away with stuff like this. That’s clearly different…

The conversation was fairly civil right up until the point outlined in the news story. What other people did afterward is irrelevant. She escalated the situation and then continued making things worse.

If you’re representing others professionally, you can’t do that. Period.

If you don’t want to be fired for being an idiot, then don’t be an idiot on social media! There is no situation where it’s okay for a developer to get into a public spat, especially with fans. You can falsely cry harassment all you want, but it doesn’t change that this behavior is unprofessional and that no business…

I must respectfully disagree.

They set the standard of firing people who randomly insult their fans.

Right. Like I said, I don’t much go in for these topics. In fact, I’m actually fairly conservative. (Libertarian leaning.) But I still hate seeing such mean and petty behavior directed at people, particularly when I’m trying to stick to fairly apolitical subjects. Not that those subjects stay apolitical. It feels like…

Nuance is non-existent on Tumblr. It’s very easy to turn everything into black and white factions. And it all depends on what community you’re trying to participate in.

You’re right that Tumblr is falling apart, but you’re wrong about the ‘why’. Yahoo purchasing the site had nothing to do with it. Oh sure, a ton of people complained, and the new “features” added to the site since then have certainly flopped, but the exodus began before then.

Most of the people complaining about Yahoo…

Thanks. And yeah, it isn’t always easy. It takes a lot of work and emotional maintenance to stay motivated. That’s just part of the process though. Unless you’re gifted, writing takes time and effort. There just isn’t any way around that. So you kinda have to resign yourself and enjoy the little victories.

Wow, good work. Having the discipline to sit down and write consistently is not easy. (at least for me) :)

Good thing too. I’m up to 125K words in my fanfic. Now that I’m this far in, I’d kinda like to finish without getting a letter from a lawyer. XD

Except he really doesn't have a point.
