Funny; for some months, my life was made horrible by a woman would very much fit the description of "evil, manipulative, attention-seeking liar plotting to ruin lives (and succeeded in doing so by targeting and getting people fired)" at my previous job.

In short, if he wants to engage, he needs to engage remembering that she is the expert and he's the one asking for labor on her part. Instead, he expects a dialogue among equals, which is wholly inappropriate.

Just reading at her twitter, the bitch who got fired has some serious behaviour issues and was probably a living hell to work with. That's something you understand quickly when you have a job and is probably the main reason why the most dumb people on resetera are defending her. They don't know about workspace and behavior issues.

Someone spoke to her politely and she went into hysterical mode instantly. Just imagine spilling cofee on her desk by mistake or just sneezing behind her while she's waiting for the elevator.  :lol

That's why teachers are known to inform third graders to "go fuck themselves" when they try to inform the teacher how problematic the answer for 11x8 is.

I'm sure the Youtube streamer is so upset his subscribers numbers are going to go up and he'll be hailed for fighting against the SJW menace

The truth is, if this guy was supposedly so important to fire somebody over, he easily could've contracted ArenaNet publicly or privately and told them not to fire Price or Fries as a result of what happened

Instead, he stayed basically quiet. Which means he's complicit.

I now know what happened with the Guild Wars 2 controversy AMA.

Alright now you gotta tell me how I’m wrong bitch

Tbh I think she was wrong but don’t think she should have gotten fired for it. Or at least I wouldn’t have fired her.  Look at the Platinum games guy who’s an ass to everyone on Twitter. It’s kinda funny.

But I agree with everything you posted on RE. I appreciate your opinion.

Sure, he's allowed to personally disagree.  He can disagree all he wants quietly and to himself.

If he wants more information, he can ask questions, and, and this is very important, make sure to phrase them in a way in which he doesn't suggest she's wrong or bad at her job (saying "I believe the problem lies in the constraints of the Living Story's design" to the person who designed it).  She doesn't know him from Adam, so he is, in fact, a rando, and if he wants her to engage, the bare minimum is to ask questions and avoid condescension, and he does neither.  She gives him a brushback to define the limits of what's acceptable engagement coming from a rando, which is a perfectly fine thing to do when some person you literally don't know decides to start making demands of your time and to wanting you to justify a design you've spent weeks if not months working on.

In short, if he wants to engage, he needs to engage remembering that she is the expert and he's the one asking for labor on her part.  Instead, he expects a dialogue among equals, which is wholly inappropriate.

You don't have to be a "professional" writer to know a story was poorly written. All it takes is taste and judging by her work, she lacked taste and talent a lot.

Oh, I didn't even recognize it was Beaglerush posting that enormous rant for some reason. He was a moderately big XCOM streamer who's fallen out of the spotlight since and his girlfriend got accused a lot of treating him like shit on stream and complaining about his viwers all the time, I guess that's why he's very passionate about this.

I guess he's not that important of a partner to ArenaNet then, which is what people were telling me was a big reason why AN had to fire Price and Fries, because they were mean to a valued community member. I guess he's not so valued then.

Which proves this. ArenaNet didn't fire her because she was mean to a valued community member. ArenaNet fired Price and Fries because they know their community is a toxic mess of sludge who must be appeased, so toss these two people on the umemployment line for the sin of pissing off troglodytes on Twitter and Reddit.
yes, these are the only two possibilities

Quote from: Jessica Price
Oh, one more thing. Mike O'Brien's most recent statement reduces my contribution to GW2 to one scene from one episode. Given how often women's work is erased or minimized, that's especially egregious. So, for the record:

Everything in GW2 is made by a team. There's no content that's made by one person. But in terms of influence: the entire season is mine. I led the season story breaking meetings, I led the episode outlining meetings, and every line of dialogue went through me.

Everything you've seen of the story so far this season is my work
, and you're going to be seeing my work in it for a long time.
Nitpicking perhaps but she in no way ”designed” it. She joined after three full seasons of Living World, about right when Path of Fire released last year. What she has worked on is one season of Living World (the current ongoing fourth season). The first season was a failed project and isn’t even playable now but 2 and 3 are designed the same way 4 is so she has had nothing to do with that.

Also, I was unaware TotalBiscuit was the new Patron Saint of Gaming, for whom nobody can ever say anything bad about. If you thinking talking ill of the dead as they're lying cold in the ground is wrong, then I hope nobody who's a UK fan of Total Biscuit never asks some of their parents their thoughts about Margaret Thatcher.

Talking about TotalBiscuit's work is different from celebrating his death.

People here are saying that Deroir is a monster for disagreeing with Jessica, but are okay with her bashing him to her followers and celebrating TotalBiscuit's death. Quite ironic.

The way that many posters in this community has reacted to this event and the ensuing fallout is a huge black mark on any form of progressiveness and tolerance that the forum brands itself as. It tells me that there isn’t much understanding of women’s situations in the games industry and that there is a disconnect in understanding what happened in 2014 with Gamergate. It is basically nothing more than another gaming subreddit or forum that is hostile and excluding of women and their existence in gaming spaces.

On top of that, it seems posters here care less about workers and their rights than multimillion companies and their large power over their workers whom they can fire at will for basically any reason. This community is supposed to be supportive of the people who make the games that people love, yet this situation makes it clear that posters would rather believe in companies than workers.

It is disappointing and actually soul-crushing to read the responses.

i think i need a ban roundup for just this thread:
Quote
User Banned (Permanent): Trolling, using a cultural pejorative associated with hate movements.
Quote
It was kind of mansplaining. Mansplaining is thinking that you, a random person with a YouTube or Twitch channel, have the right to “provide feedback” to a 10 year veteran writer who wasn’t actually asking for it.
So by this definition, she was Womansplaining to the ENTIRE internet with the original post? That's kind of disgusting and sexist behavior don't you think?
Quote
User banned (length under review) - Pushing false narratives to downplay institutional sexism, long history of similar behaviour.

Let's be honest, if it was a man who made the exact same comments as Jessica Price, there would be no controversy about the firing. The only reason people are up in arms is because it must be sexism, not that she's a shitty person or anything.

User Banned (3 Days): Vilifying media outlets + accusing journalists of false reporting

Sites like Polygon and Waypoint are doing their best to frame the whole thing this way, basically ignoring reality. It’s gross af.

User Banned (3 Days): Vilifying journalism + attempting to discredit feminism

No mather how hard gaming média tried, Common sense is winning, this os probably the worst case i ever Saw, trying to push One agenda, hiding facts and being extremely unfair to arenanet CEO and Deroir making them sexist pigs when sexism was nothing to do with the firing. They do more wrong than good to true feminism ideals.
Quote
User Banned (3 Days): Drive-by posting dismissive gifs in sensitive threads, history of similar behavior.
Quote
Again: dressing opinions with politeness doesn't excuse how wrong, hurtful or insensible are those opinions.
Quote
User Banned (1 Week): Misrepresenting information, pushing a false narrative, vilifying journalism.

I'm not going to read the entire thread, but I followed the whole thing while it happened, and I want to say a few quick things:

1. Game writer Jessica Price posted multiple tweets talking about her narrative design philosophy (so yes, she was representing the company on twitter).
2. Community members offer feedback to that philosophy and dicuss politely with her. Price dismisses them with toxity (throwing the sexism card for no reason, insulting them, etc).
3. Another writer, Peter Fries, comes in to defend his partner's behaviour.
4. Reddit community gets angry at the unnecessary insults, fake claims of sexism and general toxic behavior from Price.
5. Anet fires both writers for attacking the community.
6. J. Price keeps believing that sexism is the reason why everything happened the way it did.
7. Video game journalists write pieces of news that twist the truth, presenting the harassers as the victims, and the community members as the harassers, carefully crafting a fictious narrative to their readers.
8. The community started to trash video game journalists for twisting the truth.
Quote
User Banned (1 Day): Hostility + History of downplaying the concerns of others

It's actually embarrassing. How the fuck do people come up with this nonsense?

By asking a polite question, the Twitter user was exhibiting a "hatred of, contempt for, or prejudice against women" to use the definition. Give me a fucking break.
Quote
User banned (length under review) for dismissing harassment from hate movements and antagonizing other members in the thread

Quote
A bit of a clumsy analogy lol
Thank you.

My point being that it is very clearly about one focal point and any stronger question than "should she be fired for being an asshole" is up to speculation, examination of the American workforce, and agendas, but not because it's actually about this.

Case in point, if she wasn't an asshole, none of this would be happening. She'd still have her job, feelings would be spared, sexists would... still be sexists, but that's life.

Quote
Do you believe these "desperate" anti-GG weirdos are the only ones bringing up GG?
Besides the much moreso desperate, actual GamerGaters? Yes. Yes I do.

The time came out like an explosion and faded just as quickly. Trump got elected, the victims of the movement recovered, everyone moved on, except for the ones who never shut up about it.
Quote
User Banned (Permanent): Dehumanising women + history of misogyny; account still in the junior phase.

Some of you need to be more transparent and just say outspoken feminist women shouldn't be held accountable for their actions regardless if others would face same results.

She was an asshole on twitter and got dealt with. How many countless times since twitter or facebook has blown up resulted in people losing their jobs over shit they say on social media over non job related stuff ?

Also celebrating the death of a man dying of cancer for the last few years ultimately assumes that this "person"
lacks even human decency. Should have been fired then.
Quote
User Banned (3 Days): Repeatedly pushing false narratives; derailment
Quote
Can I not what? BDS has been nothing but a jerk this entire thread, and got away with it. How is that fine?
hmmmmm i wonder why there was no punishment
Quote
User banned (2 days): Repeated bad faith commentary; constructing strawman arguments

"I don't believe Anet or other game devs have any capacity for individual thought when it comes to employee management. It must be GG, not the fact that she violated their stance on customer treatment and feedback"

Or conversely:

"Female devs experiencing harassment should have no accountability in social media"
Quote
User banned (1 week): downplaying sexism and online harassment campaigns, account still in junior stage

There's also the fact that Price used sexims as a shield to deflect the criticism that she was getting from the Guild wars 2 community for her tweets when her being a woman had nothing with it. That is not okay.
Quote
User Banned (1 Day): Spamming

Peter Fries.

I'm just going to do this to every post coming in not engaging with anything that was said and pretending how their hottake of this being so justified cause "both sides or similar". Cause that's the level of answers that are deserved.

At mods: I'm totally fine getting a temp for this.

so even if they ask for it, you have to be sure they actually want to or you're mansplaining somehow, even if you're not a man (note that gender of either party is not in the definition)

If you want to vent privately, Facebook with it's privacy controls or some non-indexed Forum would be better, you gibbering morons.

I love what is implied by this tweet. It implies that if it really was a SJW echo chamber, it would be like a group of intellectuals hanging out, all making extremely thoughtful and insightful posts. A beacon of rationality.

Samuel gracefully rolled over in his bed, flashing his eyes open to take in his surroundings. Closing them again, he quickly yanked them open, gasping at the sight. His bed was enormous, his pillow giant enough to engulf him, and his clothes had not shrunken to his size, leaving him wrapped in his shirt. He struggled and fought his way out, and surfaced, trying to figure out what had happened. He remembered that his girlfriend had given him a cup of coffee, that she had deemed contained a "special ingredient", and he had taken it. He gazed around, thinking of how he could grapple to the floor and look for his girlfriend, to see if she would be able to help solve the incident. He unlatched his belt from his pants, heaving it over his shoulder, and he attached it to the bed post to help scaffold down. Samuel was about 4 inches in size, naked, and at this point, very fearful. As he was about to slide down, he heard footsteps clunking up the steps to the bedroom. He scurried to the edge of the bed, desperate for help. His girlfriend entered, wearing a tight pair of black yoga pants, and blue bra, revealing much of her cleavage.

The bra barely contained her massive orbs, as they fought like heck to hang loose. Each step she took jiggled her boobs, as they bounced in rhythm to her movements. She smiled at the sight of her shrunken naked boyfriend, and saw his clothes in a pile, desolated and empty. She closed the door, spinning around to lock it and stuff a towel under the door so Samuel could not crawl away. As she did that, Samuel got an amazing view of her ass, as it jiggled in her pants. They were unbelievably tight, as he could make out the outline of her panties, and she had an amazing wedgie, pulling her pants even tighter.

She turned around, smiling, and sexily strolled toward shrunken Samuel.

"Help!! I've been shrunk and I think it was from the ingredient you-" Samuel was cut off as she snatched him up and smacked him. "Shhhh you little rat, I did this on purpose. And I'm happy to see that it worked," she claimed. Taking him in her hands, she gave him a squeeze and then laid him on the bed, holding him down to prevent him from moving. She turned around, with her bum over his body and his sex over his face, and she faced away from his feet. Her bum was as about as twice as big as him, and he fought to wriggle away from the fear of what it would do to him. She kept him in place, lowered down, and sank her ass onto him, wedging his body up her crack and his face into her sex. She wiggled around, moaning from the pressure she derived, and she ground hard into him. He suffered, as her bum sucked him up as she flexed her butt muscles, squeezing the air out of him. He gasped for breath as she stood up, spun around, sat down, her ass engulfing his face. She wiggled on him as he struggled, and she crushed his face as he was forced into her butthole. She bounced up and down, smashing him further into her. His face was wedged in her, and he began to run low on breath. He heard a louder than normal moan, as hot, sweet air filled his nose, causing him to scream out of fear for his life. She reached under with a hand, pinning him down, and standing up. He sucked down volumes of air, his watery eyes full to the brim with tears.

His girlfriend laughed, then lifted his body from the bed, sticking him down the back of her pants, shoving his head up and down her ass. She rubbed his face up and down, cleaning the crack out shoving his entire upper half in her butthole. She pulled him out, clenching her cheeks together and holding him in place, as he screamed for mercy. She finally pulled him back in to fresh air, laughing and shoving him down the front. She shoved him up her sex, forcing him up past his feet, and closing her thighs together, locking him in. He struggled to get out, and she pulled him back out, as he was covered in juices from her. She kissed him, then shoved him down her breasts, as her flabs closed over his face, and she plunged him in, squeezing her breasts together and rubbing them together.

After about 10 minutes of that torture, she completely undressed, taking off her blue thong and putting it on the bed. She strolled over to the closet in the side of the bedroom, pulling out a roll of duct tape, and snatching up her boyfriend. She wrapped him in tape, and then latched him to the inside of the ass strip of her thong. She completely wrapped him, and she tightened the tape around it, leaving him completely immobile and stuck. As he forced out some last scream, she pulled the thong up, completely engulfing him and leaving him stuck inside of her. She pulled her pants up, and allowed the thong to get pulled tighter and tighter with each step she took. As she turned the TV on, she sat down, hard pressing him into her, making tears stream down his face as he accepted his fate. He heard her declare, "Don't worry baby, I wont let you suffocate. Soon you will learn to enjoy it, and you will learn to hold your breath. But for now, no escape."

Samuel was kept in her pants for over 10 years, never seeing the light of day until she let him out to eat or drink. Otherwise, he was kept inside. No one ever asked where he went, and he had tried to escape multiple times, but he was always stopped. He had begged, but his girlfriend never compromised, and he was forced to be her crack cleaner. Forever.

so did you deliberately select a photo with a single woman and no people of color or was it just instinctual hatred?

Damn! I didn't realise there was a woman in it. I thought it was all white males. Oh well...

Hmmmm, see I'm not sure about the exact comparison you used.

So let's do an example exactly about the NBA. Jerry Sloan is one of the greatest coaches in the history of basketball. He realized how difficult the pick-and-roll was to defend and encouraged his teams to use far more pick-and-roll than other teams did. This eventually became the main offensive weapon for all NBA teams. Sloan was also amazing at developing players and helped John Stockton and Karl Malone become arguably the two biggest draft steals in NBA history.

However, Jerry Sloan had two major issues that any casual fan could point out were killing his teams.

One, Sloan loved to encourage his players to foul the opposing team when that would give the other team two free shots... making fouling actually terrible defense.
Two, Sloan wasn't a huge fan of 3s and would prefer his players take a 40% look at a long 2 than a 33% look at a 3 (even though the 33% look at the 3 is objectively better)

So Sloan was right to be criticized frequently about certain things.

Another example would be Phil Jackson, who is a Hall of Famer and is widely derided by most basketball fans and basketball journalists as being a stupid person who doesn't understand how basketball works. And this derision is mostly earned actually.

even better is the first one: "Vilifying media outlets + accusing journalists of false reporting"

i assume that will be a consistent standard applied across the forum

Time to reg and spam articles from my favorite Hoxhaist newspaper.

Will all those people who now claim you need first-hand expertise before you dare question a creator's work to take back all their criticism of Varva's Kingdom Come Deliverance? Will they take back their claims that Vavra purposely kept out non-white people in the game because he was a secret Nazi when they sure as hell aren't historical experts on the region KCD was based on?

If I had just spent a while writing up a detailed explanation of my design process & then someone responded with a 4-tweet message that starts off by saying my approach has problems, then proceeds to explain my motivation to me (and gets it wrong because they completely misread everything I just wrote), and then suggests we do the exact opposite of what we're doing and presents a very common technique as if we've never heard of it, well, I'm going to be annoyed even if the tweets in questions aren't swearing at me. If I've had a bad day or have a history of receiving similar tweets, annoyed could easily turn to angry.
 

If only somebody told him how bad Cosmic Star Heroine actually is and that its actually an insult to JRPG's of the 90s, if only.

Which is funny because the criticism for what Price did (and what really got the management's attention to it) happened generally in the GW2 sub-reddit, by the GW community. Or are they saying reddit doesn't count as an internet form because...reasons?  :doge
