Not fired? Not good enough.

Demotions in cases like these are essentially a message for "don't get caught next time", and not a case that they actually did the wrong thing.

You don't leave someone in a position of power if they truly did something wrong.

I’m starting to believe that the CM’s are representatives of Sony and can’t be fired. How most of them locked down the minute one got caught blabbering might have been the CEO shutting them up for a minute.

No, most of them are former jannies from the subreddit for the original game.

The two aren’t exclusive. Could still be a jannie hired by Sony.

Why would Sony pay some loser who would do it for free? Sony probably got them to volunteer for the position.

Because someone in Sony’s HR wanted to reward like-minded “comrades” and/or make sure they have the common grounds under their thumb. Don’t want consumers drumming up bad press.

Do Human Ressources everywhere have a database from which to recruit all those batshit insane moderators they hire?

Probably a DEI database, they ALL fit the exact same mold.

Communists are very efficient at subverting everything with their kind.

It's kinda tiresome that these people seem to be artificially created in some mass production warehouse to think, act, talk and behave all the same way. Their interchangeable nature is somehow all fine, because they keep getting employed in positions where they can play the high school mean girl.

Not only do they have that, they also have blacklists of people who have offended their sensibilities, therefore their resumes should be immediately round-filed.

You don't need a database when these people are easily recognizable. Danger hair, nose ring, problem glasses, shitty tattoos, pronouns? You're hired! Here, have unsupervised access to our social media accounts!

Yes, especially in industries like video games where boomers weren't the ones who established the norms. Leftists absolutely love social credit scores, permanent blacklists, and a significant number of them would fully support summary executions for anyone who has ever typed a racial slur online or tried to explain that there are biological differences between men and women.

Which is why I fully support throwing them all out of helicopters and would volunteer to be a thrower.

What irks me is they still have these insane community management team and mods attacking the customers (no idea if this is the same one who said "yes we are forcing PSN because we want to ban you bigots") but if you bring that up in a normie gamer discord/forum, you are the one accused of being political. People have no problem calling out these devs and Sony for specific fraudulent business practices, but if you bring up actually toxic loony pronoun people running the game, everyone's like "Hold up that's a bit extreme and not everyone agrees. Let's focus on consumer rights not whining about 'muh woke'."

We have regular and consistent trolls on this forum trying to run interference for ideologies we clearly hate, but they keep at it. I don't doubt for a second that the big companies like Sony, Microsoft, Amazon, Disney, or whoever else are paying some 3rd world company to run through trending videos and hashtags to defend them no matter what they do. That's also not counting the loyal dogs doing it for free like the meme.

You are FAR from paranoid.

A lot of people balk at imagining how many paid shills there are on the Internet. Imagine you run a billion dollar company, and hiring a shill farm boosts your company value by 0.1%. That's a million bucks. Do you think the shills and bot farms cost them a million bucks a year?

I'm being paranoid but I truly think we might be seeing paid agitators who post this crap in order to try and calm people down the same way you have tactics being used by violent protestors when they've got peaceful fake pacifists blocking anyone from fighting back the second they get a cheap shot in.

Not paranoid. There are bots that can do that too.

Only demoted? faggot literally made a false criminal claim--he/she/Xir creature should've been fuckin fired from the mod team

esp since this is a "senior moderator" with fucking pronouns

Christ gaymers are such cattle because the steam page has reverted from negative to "mixed" and total back to 70% (positive)

you throw these silly conSOOMers a bone and suddenly they forget you just tried to screw them!

P.S they're also adding PSN requirement to Ghost of Tsushima

can't blame the goyim for being cattle, goyim have no self-control

they simply consume ze product, get bored, and consume ze next product, rinze and repeat

this is by design, It's based on the carrot and stick principle, goyim got addicted to vidya because back then vidya was relatively jew-free and creativity was through the roof

then jews took over the medium, hijacked the output and made everything shitty and gay

and since all avenues of digital entertainment are kiked, your only options is to either play old ass games or be a consumer goy-cattle like all the rest and play [insert mainstream title]

i hope the Changs pull through with Wokung, and that Warhorse Studios stays strong in the face of adversity (diversity)

Fun fact: Discord has investors because once the data they have accumulated is worth enough money, the company gets sold to the highest bidder and that's how those investors get their profit. This is standard practice. Stop being so naïve, people.

Use IRC.

i'm really not sure how this could be a misunderstanding though. Saying someone is a frequent sexual assaulter while working as a community manager and in your mod position on a companys discord server should be insta firing simply because it opens the company up to a lawsuit

Hmm one thing that might lessen my 'not good enough, fire them' calls..

How are labor laws in Sweden where they are based if I remember right? There may be legal reasons you can't simply fire someone straight away and you need to demote them till they have no power and you pay them less.

It could be another version of Japan work environment where they don't really fire people, just make your work life unbearable till YOU leave.

iirc from an old customer of mine, you could fire them but you had to give them severence pay of several months

Plus i'm not even sure this mod lives in sweden so I'm not sure swedish labor laws apply

There's an easy solution here. Just kill the discord server. No server, no need for discord jannies. I don't see the need for an official discord server when the devs also communicate by the Steam forums, Twitter and Reddit.
