He's alright. His story is inspiring and has probably helped many people address their own mental illnesses. He's not yet ready to let go of his "gamer" identity which is a shame.

he's a fat piece of fence sitting crap who wasted his marriage with his inability to regulate his calorie intake and has a penchant for emotional manipulation

Seriously, cities falling all over themselves to poo poo tax breaks for Amazon (or anything else) is really dumb. Not quite as dumb as whoring your city out for an Olympics, but pretty dumb. And it's the "small-government Republicans" who are supposed to be the very ones against that sort of political cronyism and favoritism.

yup, the race to the bottom is absolutely disgraceful

Ubisoft is testing a new system to detect slurs in chat in Rainbow 6 Siege and automatically ban users, and this has people angry.

Not in Siege. They've been really slow on the uptake and only last year started really dropping the hammer. Siege's community is really high or really low. Either people are super helpful and chill or they're raging teenage shitheads trying to out edge each other.

The responses to this tweet are must read. "What if it's just two friends using racial slurs in their fun banter? It's not their fault if the other people who can read it get offended!" There's this one person in particular with an anime avatar who has an insane meltdown about not being able to use worty dirds anymore.

Imagine being such a lovely person that you can't fathom the idea of not using slurs. I remember when I was younger I used to use the word human being a lot, then I realized how lovely it was and I stopped.

Please tell black kids that they’re lovely people for using the n-word, and that white programmers and executives at some wealthy entertainment corporation will ban them from the game they spent $60 on if they blurt it out. That won’t backfire or go over poorly.

You're right. We should have people submit pictures of themselves to Ubisoft so we know what words they're allowed to use.

This is some good poo poo and I almost completed my gibbering rear end in a top hat bingo card. If only someone said sjw.

I really love the four or five people who ask if we were going to start banning people for saying cracker, like they just called checkmate. I don't have stats to hand but I'm sure if you had a chart of most popular gaming slurs, anti-white stuff wouldn't even make the top twenty.

I moderate a reasonably large website (>20k active users) that has a "no slurs" policy. We tell people "look, we can't determine your race, so we apply the rules the same to everybody. We know that sucks and we're sorry, but it's better to keep our users safe."

100% of the time, actual black people go "oh, poo poo, sorry, I totally get it, I won't do it again".

100% of the time, when someone complains "so you're telling black people they can't say n****r?? huh???" it's a white boy.

A tough case. A decent percentage of the time they provide things I seriously never thought about, with references, and really contribute to the discussion.

You just know that these are kids who thought chanting "I'm not touching you! I'm not touching you!" as they waved their hands in front of their siblings' faces was totally cool and good and not at all against the spirit of their parents' admonishment to "stop hitting them".

That site only displays the threads that have removed content so you have to switch back to the live page if you want to get the full picture.

I miss the old days where each game server had its own set of rules and admins to handle things on a case by basis, so that you actually could get banned for literally no reason at all. Made bans way more entertaining. Idiots screaming at a giant corporation that doesn't care Vs. admins that will record voice chat meltdowns and post it on YouTube.
