Men need their own furniture.

Furniture that communicates their style and independence, furniture that relaxes and relieves, furniture that can be depended on to impress as we navigate an increasingly design-savvy world. Those who fail to master their own style risk being left behind - but Madfern can help.

At Madfern, you will find masculine designs that refuse to follow the mainstream. You will find furniture that will impress your friends, your guests, and your dates. And if you don’t know the first thing about creating an inviting masculine space that is your own, Madfern has every guide you need, written with you in mind.

With Madfern’s unique selection of furniture for men, you can welcome someone new into your home with supreme confidence.

Your right. I did not see the chat log I skipped a few pages.... Yikes

What I posted about the real world process is true though.

Mittens at no time should have been part of the investigation and with that attitude should never be.

I'm glad you read it. I'm sorry if I came off as overly harsh but well.. *gestures to those pages you had skipped*

... Or this. Letting sexual harassment run rampant is way worse than 'edgelord posting' and it's good that people have changed. Maybe you should be mad about people caring elsewhere.

Yeah dude, we grew up. Some of the stuff I posted in the past was vile, then I y’know, stopped doing that. The problem is people who are old enough to know better still posting like that. Glad you are caught up, now shut up lest some other pointless tepid d-grade bullshit dribbles out of your brain into this thread.

Also thinking a bunch of video gamer players are going to be able to handle harrassment complaints as well as an actual HR department for no pay is crazy.

nobody expects that

what they do expect is for an organization which has existed as a continuous entity for a relatively long loving time, and which has had to deal with This Sort Of Bullshit a lot, to have half of a goddamn clue how to manage things by now

"tee hee flounce flounce :commissar:" is funny for people who are schisming because "this just isn't my goonswarm anymore *eagle tear*" and very much not for "I'm being actually harassed"

My goonfleet post history has wild swings between very funny and “oh poo poo I had best not run for public office”. TBH it was my own exit from the closet that made me a little less tolerant of that poo poo. It’s not great but we gotta grow somehow.

TheAdj:

We are discussing including non-directors in the review team to help cover this somewhat so we do not have any "we investigated ourselves and found nothing wrong" situations. I personally feel that if a complaint was made with evidence against an alliance director, we would take action to remove them. If you want to get into some deep hypotheticals, there are some people that control the levers of both our infrastructure and in-game presence that would be difficult to remove and would likely result in re-building the alliance. Using myself as an example I am relatively easy to remove, I could blow up Waffe/steal a bunch of alliance assets/delete a bunch of IT data but the actual alliance identity and infra would be intact. For some other people it would probably be impossible to remove them. That is simply the nature of how the game and a lot of real world items work. Understand this could happen for 'any' reason, not just this really awful one we are talking about, and it is simply something we would have to work through. Honestly this falls more into BC/DR than harassment, it's the "hit by a bus" problem in sensitive jobs like IT where if the one guy with all the keys disappeared how would you continue operating.

So basically they are considering themselves the untouchables. Literally Blizzard's "We found we did nothing wrong".
