CIG staff tried to have a couple of live streams yesterday. They had to shut down the comment section because of the Ben stuff.

Thirty minutes later they had removed the tweet.

Don't forget to say "hi" to the CIG folks in this thread too.

Ha ha. I'm sure there are even funnier jokes Ben has made though. Good work, commando.

Okay, so at this point everyone has read the OP and has seen the horrible abyss that is CIG's Ben Lesnick. This fine commando, thank you Truga, has summarized how women were/are treated on an official forum run by Mr. Ben Lesnick.

Truga posted:

I'll post some poo poo that shows how bad big Ben is. This is long, it's a thread by some goonette, trying to make a women's social group so they could talk in private. It went about as well as you'd expect. Posting as links because the files are fairly big.

After this, thread got closed by Ben, and a couple of goons including the OP got probations, the reason being "trolling the community" IIRC. This only changed once people outside the forums started calling CIG out on misogyny, which got the thread cleaned up, in a really neat way which just removed all the hateful comments, as if to remove evidence of something bad ever happening. None of the shitlords posting hate got probated.

After this debacle, Ben actually tried to run the forums a bit better (likely because Sandi or Chris poo poo down his neck for there being bad press on a couple gaming news sites, rather than because they wanted a healthy community), but it didn't last all that long.

I'm glad at least 1 person on this forum is considerate enough to constantly update their OP which no one will read because :justpost:

I'm doing it in the hopes that people just tuning in can get up to date. Also, people in the massive SC thread are asking what's going on and we can just link them to the op.

Games journalists have been contacted and given the run-down and choice quotes, all their research work has been done for them so all that's left to do is write the story and publish it.

So probably nothing's going to happen.

Yes. Goons, if you aren't tweeting, emailing, posting this stuff to any and all game news places....you're wrong. You don't want to be wrong. Do you?

Like how Mexican people are sometimed name Jesus. And then when they find out what it means in English, they try to cover it by saying they're really named Hey-Zeus. #19,952

Because he's a racist/sexist who thinks 9 year olds are sexy? who's the public face of a 112 million dollar videogame company. Dude is on like 3 livestreams a week.

All those THOUSANDS of photos he had of her mysteriously disappeared after a bunch of goons tweeted her the links to the galleries and his comments. I'm guessing a lawyer got involved.
