I talk about it lots but it might be time to get off this train soon. Blitzchung incident got me to quit for a bit, low industry standard salaries was close, this timed with me having my first child in October will probably do it.
No matter what Acti-Blizzard says, I can assure they do no ever want to have their day in court. A jury would annihilate them and they know that. The most likely outcome of this is that they will fight for a long while, and then they will settle with the state by paying a large fine and by agreeing to a robust consent order that will require changes to their HR structure and employment policies.
pretty much what I thought.

According to Iksar above, yes.
Neat! Where are you seeing the animations already?

I liked Kosak a lot when he'd show up in videos. Very disturbed by his involvement in those chats. Just gross stuff, even if you believe the story that some of the people involved didn't think the Cosby Suite was a reference to Cosby's sexual assaults. The article does mention:Former HS dev Dave Kosak was involved in some of the sexual harassment stuff, according to a new report from Kotaku.
Inside Blizzard Developers’ Infamous Bill ‘Cosby Suite’
Booze, sexual remarks, and a giant portrait of Cosby are all at the center of Activision lawsuit
wonder if that is why he left Blizzard? Apparently this incident was investigated by Blizzard last June and resulted in the termination of Afrasaibi.
This kind of behavior exists because a few men are super predators and most men are just nice guys trying to get along with their lives who are happy to have a laugh with the boys every now and then and not get too worked up over "office romance" or "that guy Alex really gets flirty after a couple drinks."
Cosby's Sex crimes were known well before 2013
You think no one knew about this stuff prior to 2015? Anything to keep peace of mind to continue to play your game I suppose
Meanwhile, in the actual article:
"Just being a single dude at a convention" ... uh, not quite.
Y'all bending over backwards to justify continuing to support this trash company with your playtime and dollars.
Word? Cause he's also in this text chain yukking it up with the most credibly accused abuser in this situation so tell more about how much good he did.
Literally not. Hes right there and I quote "happy to have a laugh with the boys" when one of the boys is a predatory creep who's abused who knows how many women employees or fans. But keep on pointing out technically he's not indicted yet and hey maybe he was the one doofus who actually thought the Cosby joke was sweater related.
Shitty people do shitty things. Intentionally naming the room after cosby is not only part of the complaint by the state if California but is not even close to the worse thing or "most unbelievable" thing.
Like you honestly believe there is not bad people who are proud of how shitty they are.
