So, only people with formal training are allowed to join a professional discussion ? so IceFrog/Eul for example, the fans that created DOTA, had nothing to contribute to game development really? or Steve Jobs actually had nothing to contribute to IBM? I agree the internet with its endless source of articles in any

Um have you ever worked in a work environment that requires customer interaction? What she did is easily a just cause for being fired.

Exactly. She took it somewhere it didnt need to go, and started blaming all manner of social justice issues for her own foolish comments. If I insult a customer at my job, Id expect to be fired. Period. Id definitely not call the fans bots, arsehats, or later imply sexism as a result. Thats nonsensical. Doesnt matter

Exactly. If you work for a company lets say, and attack its fans for merely making a polite suggestion, you would probably be fired too. To add to that, she then implied sexism, misogyny and a reddit backed conspiracy...all for her own mistake of needlessly insulting a fan of her work and her employers. Unacceptable

While all the GamerGaters are shit heads, and people trying to sack individuals they don’t agree with is disgusting, Price is a total fucking asshole and has proved it multiple times in her social media feeds. ArenaNet did the right thing by letting her go. No one wants to employ a public facing person with zero self

Disclaimer: I am just talking about Jessica Price here, the other episodes of harassment are shitty and unacceptable and I am NOT pro-gamergate here.

Not participating in social media at all seems like the best thing to do these days.

did you guys not even bother to read the initial tweet that he posted in response to her 29(!) long tweet string about her job? he said literally zero about anything at all having to do with her sex, he was merely disagreeing with her on her choices. it was HER that became hostile and made it all about being a female

I agree. Can’t wait until we see more of Levines next game.

The choice of Byelorussian (Belarusian) Jew is particularly interesting from a 20th century Eurasian historical context. I’ll admit I didn’t really follow the Bioshock mythos that closely—I’ve only beaten the first and third game, and while I was a huge System Shock 2 fan, Bioshock never really spoke to me in such a

Israel is an apartheid state and a colonial state imposed on Palestinians, it has no right to exist.

Lol, hi from 2018.

And I gazed through the crack and I saw... PUBG.

At least make the goddamned effort, rather than caving to this whole “civility” thing.

I used to believe that playing by the rules would eventually shame the other side into doing the same, but it’s been made clear through countless examples that these bastards will do anything and everything to accumulate and maintain

McConnell is, I would gently remind you, the same sanctimonious knob who screamed about “the will of the people” when he stonewalled President Obama’s appointment to replace Scalia prior to the 2016 election.

That the hypocrisy of this moment—and McConnell’s handling of it—is so bald-faced, out in the open, and galling

Yes.  If you voted for someone, regardless of the motivations, it does count.  That’s how it works.  It counts.

The scariest part is this seat is as good as gone. Democrats can put up a fight but with the fillibuster gone but I’m not what levers they have left.

If there was any doubt that we are now living in 1935 Nazi Germany this week’s SCOTUS headlines should clear that up. Make no mistake, it will be worse this time.

I’ve already applied to open to a brand new drive thru gay marriage abortion clinic on the US border for all Americans fleeing to Canada for either of those two services. I’m gonna be rich, bitches!

Because absolutely nothing gold can stay
