    A very close friend of mine works as a community facing employee for a large game company and as part of their job they have to make decisions that will inevitably make people angry. They’ve been very concerned lately about getting doxxed and harassed. Folks online often forget the human on the other side.

      He has thicker skin than I and I hope for the best for him. I don’t think there’s an amount of money you could pay me to be a CM for a game company.

        Yeah, I love gamers, I love games, but for whatever reason the bad eggs of the bunch are super bad eggs.
