I like how the sanctity of YouTuber life is the artificial line you've drawn in the sand to justify your awful morality against people, I think that's irony...? Either way, keep fighting the good fight to preserve Total Biscuits integrity post mortem soldier!


And you keep fighting to remain the disgusting piece of shit you are, soldier.

You all deserve every fart video TVC posts. Every last one of you.

They do, they really do.

I’m already cooking up something new to get around bork’s prudery tonight.

If you ACTION me, the beloved mascot of the forum, while failing to MODERATE Assimilate, whom everyone wants banned, the subsequent revolt will make the Fall of NeoGAF look sedate.

speaking of mobs, when bork the tyrant inevitably bans TVC like he was some rando asshat the wave of rage will ensure he is destroyed on the rocky shores of youtube semi-porn

Probably cause up until this viral moment she hadn't called a partner who is so popular with the community and company that he got an NPC in game named after him a "rando asshat". I'm all for going wild on social media, but sometimes you have to consider your targets.

I’m actually not against firing her on the merits of that point, if that is indeed a policy. My only contention was it seems fairly likely that the reason for the firing had more to do with the mob outrage - which seems motivated more in punishing her for wrong think than any sort of ethics in customer service - which created that spotlight and pressure to act than the CEO seemingly punishing her based on a strictly maintained and monitored breach of protocol.

no one expects any one to automatically be gutted about a youtuber dying. but there were people who were actively gleeful he was dead just because he didn't tow the line on their online to and fro, which is pretty sad honestly. If people could have gotten away with calling him and his wife nazis on era like I saw plenty of on twitter, I'm sure they would have too.

I didn't even  like the dude but still found it off

A mob catstrophizing and drawing attention to stuff that triggers them is basically how you get someone fired for social media posts though....

I mean it's hard to ascribe "intent" to the bunch of people who think Price fucked up. Sure, some people were saying "i'm going to boycott unless you fire her", but most of them were just saying how much they disagreed with her for saying what she did. The mob wasn't "whipped up", it was people hearing about what had happened and genuinely thinking the story was worth weighing in on.

The only reason this came back on ArenaNet is because it was her talking about the work she did on the story design that started the twitter fiasco, thus tying their reputation as a company to her words.

Too many people make money from the scam, the fake news people get their clicks, the shills get their patreon money, the anti shills get their patreon money and the rest of us are morbidly curious, why would you expect it to stop :lol

Yeah, it's sad but true.

Like Glenn Beck, they know that any attention is good attention. It keeps them relevant, keeps people invested, and in certain circles increases their social standing.

From everything I’ve seen and read a mob is rarely uniform. But you can tend to parse out what some of the larger triggers for people in the mob are, like in this instance, briefly reading a lot of the threads about people that participated in it, or at least got activated by it negatively, and what they seem to rally around, there are some clear tribal/culture war motivations in a lot of the people outraged. Lots of cheering for getting her fired, pearl clutching over certain statements that cut along videogame culture war lines, and some subtle sexism. The screen caps from the second employee and the onslaught of threats and trolls seem to speak to it as well.

My point there though was it seems fairly likely that the viral nature of this incident and the level of outrage seems to be what got the CEO to fire her.

I'd agree to all of that, and even add that some of the sexism was even less than subtle, and I really do wish we didn't live in a society where we didn't railroad people online and try to fuck up their lives. Not Justine Sacco, not Daniel Vávra, and even not Jessica Price.

oh i'm sure there was more to it than what is made public, there always is in these cases. while this was a bad/dumb move on her part, it doesn't seem to be worth firing someone who (seemingly) is doing good work at their position. so imo there's definitely something else there but we'll likely never know what it is.

I mean, they personally disliked the dude, which doesn't make them some kind of irredeemable monster. People were actively gleeful when Charles Krauthammer dropped too, a dude who had a much greater positive and negative impact on people's lives.

But it's not even a huge deal, Leigh is a bit of a cunt even without her twitter hot take about Jon. All my interactions with her have resulted in her being personally insulting, except for the one time she wanted to cop my interview with aniwey, so she's a fake ass bitch imo. I just find it funny Optimus is using that as his artificial horizon.

...According to all the interviews so far, which is all the evidence we have to go on, she never received a single infraction, never received a warning, and in fact at multiple times was encouraged and made to believe her social media behavior and social advocacy was encouraged and backed by the company. Now whether that is the case we don’t know a 100%. But seeing as this seems in line with all of her past online behavior it seems likely this was a reaction to a viral moment.

Pro tip: She will never have sex with you.

The prudes of the forum find both distasteful and say so, but when I post that shit they performatively post about how they’re concerned for me, flapping about like paid grievers at a Chinese funeral. They’re such phony pieces of shit.

Anyway, that stuff typically comes when I have too much free time and indulge my worst interests out of boredom. Farts come when I don’t want to or can’t put in any effort. Rubber, latex, and dirty feet come when I need to cum.

What did Optimus say that was unhinged?

To me, this qualifies. Though I suppose if you're not as sensitive to them'ing and they'ing then it's not so bad. Not sure if Nola was talking about anything from today, though.

Jesus Christ, Leigh Alexander is a despicable cunt.


Honestly I feel vindicated, mostly to myself. I often exaggerate against people I heavily dislike and there's always some doubt in my mind about the things I assume about them. Their absolutely disgusting response to TB's death and the silence from the rest of these scumbags for the terrible things that were said confirms even the worst suspicions I had about them. They're all human trash. They're still posting articles smearing TB btw, I just read a new one today.

Yes, but it's obnoxious and absent a sense of decorum to blurt out "Glad the fucker's dead!" while the corpse is still warm.   And there's a sense of cold opportunism that one sees in that contrarian that tweets, "I never liked him to begin with.  Here's why he was an asshole." while everyone is saying their piece.  Again, nothing really wrong besides lacking a sense of grace and decorum -- but it just makes you look unlikeable, and to expect people not to respond to your public behavior is some incredible privilege.  They should keep their glee and scorn to themselves like I keep all my contempt and resentment for other people inside my dark place.

I was studying to be a criminologist and found serial killers the most intriguing, hence my enjoyment of your posts.

Elizabeth Bathory is a great example. Two really bad movies about her that only focus on the bathing in blood, plus a couple horror movies doing the same. The blood stuff was tame compared to some of the torture she performed on her female servants.

The problem is, absent a sense of decorum, respect, and empathy for the other person at the other end of the computer screen: everyone justifies the mob activity because they think what they're saying is true and well-said.  There are better ways to communicate in public: one of them involves shutting up  for a period of time when someone you don't like passes away.

I can't believe y'all are getting in your feelings about people not being upset enough after a YouTuber died lol
FWIW, I know nothing of TB. I know he was a YouTuber that covered games, and that’s it. Wouldn’t recognise the face or voice or whatever. I do know that he died young of an awful disease, and left behind a widow. That’s enough for me to expect people not to smugly celebrate his death. It’s not a high bar to clear.

As I said, I think Leigh Alexander is despicable. Ever since I first came across her on the Giant Bomb E3 podcast, she’s stood out as a truly horrible person, feigning victimhood to avoid being held accountable for her own aggression. Despite this, you will not see me talk shit about her posthumously. It’s just bare indecent.

It’s even worse when it comes from people pretending to be ‘the good guys’.

What I gathered is that the guy apparently used the term "SJW" a couple of times (or something something moderate), so the most delusional  REEEs apparently felt like his death was like the fall of a dictator. You can only imagine the "behind-closed-doors" festivities if that boogie bowl had a stroke or something. :doge  The only other thing I know is that TB stanned for Godhand, so that alone made him a better person than any hardcore REEE. :doge

It’s even worse when it comes from people pretending to be ‘the good guys’.

I'll put it this way:

I just don't see the point of being fake, especially on Twitter of all places. It pissed me off when ERA dictated that the thread on TBs death could literally only mention condolences, and it pisses me off when people get all up in arms about someone shit talking post mortem. TB was loved, his family knows he was loved, and there was no shortage of people writing passionately about how he had positively affected their lives.

TB also made lots of mistakes that negatively affected people. Why should they be expected to keep personally silent just cause the dude died? Listen, I respect that you make personal moral decisions based partly on a system of decorum which would keep you from talking shit about Leigh if she were to die (Optimus, not so much) but I just don't see how a twitter hot take about TBs death is somehow good or bad inherently. I don't feel any better about someone sharing their story of positivity, and I don't feel any worse when someone says he was a shit, cause he was a good dude who did some shitty things.

Like I said above tho, Leigh is a shithead regardless of her feelings about TB, I'm sure she's done good things for people but to me personally she's been nothing but shitty.

I don’t think people need to be fake. If you’ve nothing nice to say, say nothing. If you want to write an intelligent article about his role in the world and how power and influence are dangerously fickle these days, do so. Later, and with tact. Just don’t post a fucking smug self-congratulating passive-aggressive tweet whilst the body is still warm. Unless you’re a despicable cunt. Now that’s my rule for life, not just for videogame journalists or Twitter or whatever.

I suppose it’s like spitting on the street. It isn’t going to hurt anyone or cause any damage, but if I see you do it, I’ll shudder in distaste. If you pride yourself on how dignified you are when you walk down the street, I’ll have a much bigger issue with you.

though i'm not a fan of totalbiscuit, that was one thing that bugged me about that jessica price anet person when people posted her tweet about TB. It was something like "the nicest thing i can say is that i'm glad he's gone and can't hurt people". actually the nicest thing you could say is nothing at all, but i guess that's impossible these days.

A mob catstrophizing and drawing attention to stuff that triggers them is basically how you get someone fired for social media posts though....

And honestly if what she said in her interviews is even partially true, that the company knew of her outspokenness on issues when they hired her, and even encouraged it, encouraged her and others to speak out and was completely ok with her social media behavior up until that point, it seems pretty likely the CEO was bending to the mob. Or at least his perception of it.


lol they knew she's a dumb cunt that celebrates cancer victims' death and accuses customers of sexism for daring to offer polite constructive criticism? Thankfully the developer and developers like them will think twice now before hiring these fucking lunatics.

I mean i agree with anyone who says that firing her was harsh, it's someones livelihood after all (just like with the subnautica guy and the african aids lady btw), but when she herself stokes the flames of mob outrage justice it's kinda hard to sympathize.

You all deserve every fart video TVC posts. Every last one of you.

They do, they really do.

I’m already cooking up something new to get around bork’s prudery tonight.

:batman

If you ACTION me, the beloved mascot of the forum, while failing to MODERATE Assimilate, whom everyone wants banned, the subsequent revolt will make the Fall of NeoGAF look sedate.
TVC is at his/her best when sticking with the grizzly stuff and serial killers. More guy committing suicide by a bandsaw, less of the fart humor.

The prudes of the forum find both distasteful and say so, but when I post that shit they performatively post about how they’re concerned for me, flapping about like paid grievers at a Chinese funeral. They’re such phony pieces of shit.

Anyway, that stuff typically comes when I have too much free time and indulge my worst interests out of boredom. Farts come when I don’t want to or can’t put in any effort. Rubber, latex, and dirty feet come when I need to cum.

OK, I won't be concerned for you anymore.  Shut the fuck up and stop posting disgusting shit in here and in other unrelated threads.  Go make a "TVC's official thread of shit" thread or whatever and label it as NSFW if you want to post that stuff.

I’ll respectfully decline—exhibitionism clearly weighs heavily on my frontal lobe, and it requires me to reach as large an audience as possible, so making my own quarantine thread isn’t an attractive prospect.

However, I’ll do you a solid and tone down the gross media for a while. “A while” being at least a few weeks. As long as nudemac doesn’t encourage me by posting weird media first.

In a month or two, your tolerance will have recovered, I’ll start posting it again, and the cycle will continue as it has in the past. It’s like an abusive relationship. I, the battered wife, keeps returning to her abuser, you. It’s a shame, but nobody can really do anything about it. It wil be okay.

I'd rather fart videos than some insanely trans-phobic stuff marecc posts though.
When there are people close I never keep the tab open long enough for anyone to actually read text, that would be the end of me.

no one expects any one to automatically be gutted about a youtuber dying. but there were people who were actively gleeful he was dead just because he didn't tow the line on their online to and fro, which is pretty sad honestly

I didn't even him like the dude but found it really off

I mean, they personally disliked the dude, which doesn't make them some kind of irredeemable monster. People were actively gleeful when Charles Krauthammer dropped too, a dude who had a much greater positive and negative impact on people's lives.

But it's not even a huge deal, Leigh is a bit of a cunt even without her twitter hot take about Jon. All my interactions with her have resulted in her being personally insulting, except for the one time she wanted to cop my interview with aniwey, so she's a fake ass bitch imo. I just find it funny Optimus is using that as his artificial horizon.

I now cba with twitter because it just amplifies crazies a dissproportionate amount but people were really trying to one up themselves over it. calling him and his family nazis. Maybe i'm privileged and that but I just can't get into the mindsight of people  who have lost all sense of proportion like that.


people would be saying shit like that on era if the moderation wasn't so strict, so I guess I have to give them their due there lol

They show up as thumbnails and often those are NSFW on their own.
