EDIT: Official Response from ANet
I just wanted to say that through this, we stood up together as a community to defend two innocent people from hateful words. Some will see the conclusion of this as "too far" while some will see it as justice being served. Regardless of how you look at this, and regardless of the platform its happening on, take this as a lesson. If you see something morally wrong happening, stand up and say something. Do something. Support each other through it. Personally, the conclusion of this will be a burden on me forever. But I am willing to live with it knowing that I was fighting for what was right.
When you publicly attack someone who was simply engaging in a discussion with a professional simply to give insight or seen an opportunity to interact with a professional and suddenly that person is shut down, only to turn this into a gender issue which HAD ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, you better know that you lost any sort of professional credibility and all respect.
It is sad that you have this platform to share such hateful and closed minded act, rather than being engaged into discussion and sharing information. You are not entitled for anything if you behave like that, and you will get treated exactly the way you treat people.
Ok bye.

Toxic feminists. More and more have been creeping up in my life, thankfully not in ways that can hurt me. I feel bad for her co-worker who decided to hitch his wagon to her insane ego. He seemed somewhat reasonable except for this specific event, whereas her own Twitter history is nothing but absolutely insanity and toxic behavior. It's almost like he was pressured to be as irrational as her, like maybe he was brought in by her on purpose through DM's or a chatroom they share.
She destroyed his 12 year career at that company in just a couple hours of ego-fueled, fragility-inspired Twitter ranting. What's funny is that she almost certainly believes she did absolutely nothing wrong.

Islam and western feminism have a weird dialectical pseudo-alliance. Feminists don't realize that most muslims in the world, by sheer numerical count, in their ideal Muslim theocracy, would force them to wear burqas and severely punish them for refusing to do so. And "rape culture" would be sky high.

How does a blockbot work? Is there a list of frequently blocked users or is it a vetted list of toxic people or does it automatically block people who follow specific accounts? How would you end up on the blockbot list?
[–]Chewiemuse 17 points18 points19 points (5 children) | Copy Link
If you follow someone tied to the block bot, you yourself are blocked. This is how some of them work. Others were compiled during Gamer Gate and they use the user list from that.
[–]utf8decodeerror 3 points4 points5 points (3 children) | Copy Link
Interesting, thanks for filling me in. I didn't know those existed. I don't think I have a problem with someone using a blockbot that has a curated list if you trust the curator but a blockbot based on followers of specific people seems dumb. I follow people who are prominent proponents of things I disagree with just so that I don't get locked in my own echo chamber.
[–]Chewiemuse 13 points14 points15 points (0 children) | Copy Link
its almost exclusively used by people that WANT to be in a echo chamber or feel like anyone that has the opposite views as them is literally a lesser Human
[–]Supes_man 3 points4 points5 points (1 child) | Copy Link
Exact same here. I follow multiple subs I disagree with on many levels simply because I like to stay informed of what's going on. I was in a very groupthink echochamber in highschool and early college and it shook me to my core once I was more exposed to other views on things.
I'm far more open minded now and want to stay that way. I follow both the donald and late stage capitalism for example because I want to see what both extremes are ranting about this week. Heck I followed r/incels while it was around because I needed to remind myself that these people actually exist for real. It would be deplorable to then have my account banned just because I followed a sub like that. That's equivalent to watching firefighters put out a blaze and the cops arresting you because you were watching.
[–]steelwolfprime 0 points1 point2 points (0 children) | Copy Link
It happens on Reddit all the time if you post on specific subs. I've never seen this sub before today but this meta comment of mine here will mark me as a "supporter" of whatever you guys are known for thinking.

I just don't get how anyone can live their lives as sad and bitter as this. Can you imagine getting that angry and offended over everything? Every time someone mentions a woman, it's like "SHUT UP STOP BEING SUCH A DICK".
I'm all for people telling people to shut up when they're being offensive, but to be so aggressive over nothing really takes some doing.
[–]ihatethisaxe 11 points12 points13 points (4 children) | Copy Link
I almost feel bad for her. At some point in her life some borderline cult indoctrinated her into believing that when someone doesn't agree with her or criticizes her work, it's because she is a woman and they have no respect for her or any other women, not because they just don't agree with her ideas or have a different perspective. It's sad to think that there are massive communities out there whose goal is to convince people of exactly that. And not just for women, but for every minority group. They WANT these people to see anyone who doesn't look like them as "the other", and they do it by convincing them that everyone feels that way about them. And on top of all that, these communities often have the support of politicians, the media, universities and other major aspects of society. I used to think what I'm typing right now were just insane ramblings, but this is real. This woman was created by this system and there are thousands like her.
[–]chakan2 1 point2 points3 points (2 children) | Copy Link
I don't think so... I honestly just think she wasn't that good at her job... See her tweets for examples of her writing.
I really think she used this as a smoke screen for her lack of ability. I find it likely that anytime someone was critical of her work, she'd use excuses like this to deflect instead of critically looking at her work.
I mean hell, she quoted Twilight as an inspiration for her lackluster writing.

I'm so glad I quit that game, haven't touched it in like 6 months. I knew what direction it was heading as soon as I saw a trans NPC in one of the main cities.
[–][deleted] 15 points16 points17 points (0 children) | Copy Link
yep.
of the 5 main races, 1 does not include gender in their concept of love and there's a gay couple of that race somewhere in the main story (oddly enough I never encountered them myself despite putting a not-insignificant number of hours into the game...)
also the lesbian couple that's in the main cast and has their relationship drama take up some screentime
to be fair I do support gay rights, but I don't think anyone should be surprised that this particular game, this particular company, responds like this.
[+]Vitalynk1 points [recovered] (6 children) | Copy Link
Just because you see a trans NPC doesn't mean the game has gone total Tumblr crazy. It's still a great game, and if you judge it just because of this woman and ONE NPC, it's really sad. But you do you, though.
[–]stephen89 23 points24 points25 points (5 children) | Copy Link
Not one NPC and one woman, a growing trend. Her reaction sheds some light on why the official forums are such cancer. Its moderated the same exact way, all criticism is deleted and people banned and accused of stuff like this. Peter Fries also tried to blame Deroir for giving feedback to something SHE posted. This is showing to be a much larger problem than one NPC and one person.
[–]Vitalynk -2 points-1 points0 points (4 children) | Copy Link
From what I know, the forum has always been the worst place ever to talk about the game (or anything else). That's why we have the subreddit.
And I know about Fries. Super disappointed, immediately unfollowed him. BUT, that still doesn't mean the game is filled with SJW stuff.

Even better. So everyone will frown upon the company and perhaps boycott their stuff. Fries' response reflects sheer idiocy and the fact that he's not even pulling back shows how terrible he is at handling the public.
I also think that Reddit isn't really coming around, though. When you visit certain subs, it's easy to enact confirmation bias and say that Reddit is coming around, when it's probably just that group of people on that sub getting roused. For example, this sub.

[–]EtherMan 7 points8 points9 points (1 child) | Copy Link
They constantly delete threads if the comments are wrongthink. An article denying climate change is fine as long as the comments say it's real. An article where the comments say it's not real though, nuked. So it's not about what position the article takes, but rather what direction the discussion in the comments take.
[–]paperairplanerace 1 point2 points3 points (0 children) | Copy Link
Which is antiscientific as hell, you don't just suppress discourse, that's far more destructive than allowing people to hash out disagreements over blatantly wrong ideas. It just fuels the wrong side's fire and removes opportunities for people who aren't opinionated either way to learn useful information. I don't fuck with most big subs for this reason, fuck anywhere that moderates that aggressively.
[–]NecroHexr 5 points6 points7 points (2 children) | Copy Link

There was another tweet where he had said, "I don’t get this stuff directed at me and I’ve been working on living world narrative content since 2012." Well maybe that's in part because you only have 3k followers and she's got 10k. Having an extra 7,000 people see your content will help open you up to having more comments on your stuff. But sure, the sole reason she received such "condescending" feedback is because woman=bad, man=good.
[–]stephen89 36 points37 points38 points (1 child) | Copy Link

[–]EtherMan 19 points20 points21 points (0 children) | Copy Link
He also HAS gotten it directed at him, a LOOOOOT... But, he isn't generally writing about it on Twitter, so that criticism is mostly directed at him on the official forum in the very section for feedback... So the only real way to read that reply really is openly admitting that Anet isn't actually reading any of the feedback, in the section of their forum for writing feedback, which is really just a horrible outlook for Anet.

She retweeted something about Germany having 0/50 gaming CEO's. How is that surprising to anyone? The gaming industry has been traditionally a male only thing, not because nobody wants girls gaming but because girls never traditionally had any interest in gaming. So it's natural that the CEO's of these gaming companies (who have probably played games or been interested in them for years) are male given that females have only just begun to saturate the gaming market. It's similar to how being a nurse is a traditionally female dominated job.
[–]Bckevindsp 22 points23 points24 points (0 children) | Copy Link
I don't get these peoples logic.. If you want to be a gaming ceo. Do as the men did.
Work hard, climb the ladder. Succeed, profit.
It's almost like their argument is that the men were just placed there of no accomplishment of their own.
No these men studied, worked and succeeded they should be credited not stripped of their accomplishments"cuz man"
We need to shut down these kind of thinkers.. They're categorically wrong.

There are very few industries so completely filled with ultra thirsty men with no spines to speak of besides the video game industry.
It's one of the main reasons why feminists attack it so openly, the people in the industry will almost never fight back, it's only the gamers themselves who bother to tell idiot feminists to take their professional victimhood and shove it up their twats.
She doesn't act like this because she doesn't understand that she'll get away with it whether she's in the wrong or not, because it's "sexist" to hold women accountable for the things they do and say.

'That' with 'thot' is redundant.

I'm so glad the GW2 subreddit isn't monumentally retarded.

What is it like to wear your identity on your sleeve? She was just looking for something to go on the defensive about. What'll it be today? Maybe the next man that makes me feel the least bit less than absolute pride in my self.

As much as what she said was pretty stupid, that's some proper hate filled stuff she's now getting on her twitter.
She definitely caused this to begin with, but reaction might be a tad harsh...
Edit: not sure if I’m in r/pussypassdenied or /r/incel...
[–]uberduger 28 points29 points30 points (1 child) | Copy Link
I agree, but I'm pretty sure that if she'd apologised right at the start, she wouldn't be getting this reaction.
And if you're being downvoted, calling everyone in this thread an "incel" is not gonna magically make people warm to your comment.

If you're the sort of person that cares about being 'downvoted', the best of luck to you.
I just felt it apt to point out the people replying sound like they struggle interacting with, well, people and stuff.

This is the culture she helped create. Now she's crying because she's on the receiving end of an angry mob?

Not really an r/incels thing, more like people getting fed up with hypocrisy. She claims to fight for gender equality and feminism but then uses sexist insults against male fans of her game.
Consider this: if a male dev had made those blatantly sexist and dismissive remarks - not to mention insults - against a female fan, what would his Twitter be like?
With that said, Twitter mobs are still dumb. Buuut I'm also not gonna trip over myself to defend her.

If someone had literally thousands of people harassing them because of one dumb tweet on their personal account, I'd probably call that pretty fucking stupid too.
I'm not sure I see your point. Cause one side is fucking stupid the other should be too?
[–]please_stop_dabbing[S] 6 points7 points8 points (0 children) | Copy Link
One dumb tweet? It's her entire attitude to how she treats the games content creators and customers which calls for this "mob". Shes not getting hate because of one dumb tweet. Shes getting hate because someone like her with her position is crying sexism and labeling people as miogynists when they were completely respectful and trying to discuss game mechanics.

No, as I said, Twitter mobs are dumb. They're slightly less dumb when the person being targeted deserves it, but they're still dumb. Definitely one of the worst ways to express legitimate criticism. So no, I'm not a fan of the fact that she's getting twitter harassment, it's not something I would do personally. But, it makes sense. She played in the mud and got dirty, I'm don't feel particularly sorry for her.
Also on a side note, what exactly did you see that was so bad? Most of the tweets I saw were critical, but not overtly hostile or derogatory. But I might have looked in the wrong place, I don't really use Twitter.

You need to examine her tweet history for only 5 minutes, to realize this isn't about one dumb tweet.
For example:
This says so much about her... https://imgur.com/gallery/wCO90F9

You're a public figure. You have to handle the flak. Especially if you incited it.
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points (0 children) | Copy Link
Either handle it or get off for a day and process it imo. You don't need to be instant in your response, you just gotta say what you truly mean and want to say. She needed to put the shovel down bad.
