Hey man, you can go frick yourself too b/c you think its no big deal for a person to be harassed with death threats and rape threats.

Quality human you are.



and at trying to equate shite on XBox live to a constant barrage of harassment that these people are talking about.

You could at least return the favor and be polite about the fricking, sheesh.

Seriously though, it happens all the time in the industry. By its very nature the users are connected to the internet and thus able to be a very vocal minority. The overwhelmingly vast majority of the people are 8 year old and if you think 8 year olds can't find your address through the intent then go post some info on the OT.

These threats don't happen because they're women, these threats happen because they're game developers. You want to talk about the issues in the industry then go for it but let's not start the discussion with special treatment for a select few. The type of shite that gets tossed sins in a cesspool like XBox Live or on YouTube videos makes up the vast majority of the vitriol spewed by the vocal minority that is typical of this "murder" problem. Just good grief what hyperbole that was.

Ummm...the male developers seem to think it is no big deal apparently.

You asked for an article and you got one from Forbes.

Don't be a poor sport. Keep your disappointment at being terrible and wrong associated with Aggie football. No need for it here.
