I believe there’s a reuters article that was up on MSN as well. I’m sure there will be others. I’m not so sure if any of them will include much in the way of new information.
I think most reasonable adults agree with this statement. I know I do, especially now that I have a daughter going into her teens.
However, make sure you’re calling out the right people here. I see at least one person in this thread that you called out wrongfully when all they were saying is the same thing as you, “That it’s indefensible to advocate for people, employees or otherwise, that are a part of such abhorrent behavior.”
Edit: Sorry Annastasi, I see this was ready addressed above.
Wait. This person is doing the same thing.
Am I losing my mind? Likely.
I don’t think anyone in this thread is siding with the employees that are being let go for abhorrent behavior.
At least I haven’t seen it.
I’m just trying to help people(and myself) stay on track and make sense of this thread.
Because even though OP is posting this for shock value, and Clark is going the other direction, there are so many moving goal posts in this thread, simply for the sake of temporarily feeding egos that the gravity of the topic could easily get swept away and lost.
*It’s BAD to be a creep in the workplace (or anywhere).
*It’s GOOD that Activision/Blizz are taking the right steps towards making a change within the company.
Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if he engendered and promoted it within Blizzard specifically knowing it’d be something that’d come back to bite them in the rears. Blizzard isn’t the first game developer Activision has purposefully dismantled, and the games industry isn’t even the first industry Kotick has employed these practices in. He has a very colored history of buying out and dismantling companies.
No one is defending anything. They’re giving you facts.
And OP claimed:
So why are you adamantly defending the OP, who claimed falsely that more people were fired specifically this week that we don’t actually know about and only from Blizzard, which is not actually accurate?
You don’t even know what you’re arguing about, do you?
This post is the most amazing thing I’ve seen in these forums in a long time.
Half of you are arguing with people that are agreeing with you, yet you’re STILL arguing.
Example. Tenfingerdps is saying the same thing as most of you (defending harassers is bad), yet a handful of you are acting like they are defending Blizzard? LMAO some of you just want to be angry, and just lash out no matter what is said…
I do think some folks got lost a bit. Most everyone agrees that getting rid of people who are abusive and harass others is a good thing. Some are arguing semantics (seeing as the OP is wrong on that), but the concept of getting rid of the abusive people is agreed on.
