I’ve got to agree, I think showing violence/attention towards him only propogates more violence. Although he is a piece of shit and deserves to get decked in the teeth, it doesn’t HELP anything to do so. The better way is to allow him to say what he wants to say and calmy and rationally explain why it is a bad idea.…

Yea I was going to say thats a pretty big stretch there.

Or play as Ana, who DOES heal teammates by shooting them!

Hopefully the community doesn’t turn this tribute into a fanfic about who’s fucking who now.

Having Splatoon characters in Mario Kart on the Switch is causing problems.

If they weren’t trying to scam everyone into buying loot boxes offered it at 1000 credits or made it available indefinitely, there probably…

So, from what I’ve seen, chat only gets bad if you’re 1) not fostering a positive community (I.E. the streamer’s fault) or your viewership numbers are consistently above like 6-8k. For example, people like CohhCarnage, Dodger, Strippin foster really positive communities (Cohh the most so), with viewership hanging…

Agency, motivation, a character arc. And no rape. She also can’t be irresistible to everyone. I really like what Gail Simone has done with Red Sonja.

This is a cool conversation. Thank you for starting it.
