I don’t know anything about EA sports.

You seem emotional. Maybe you’re starting your period.

You are obviously pro-union. You called Mikel an idiot.

What did the union do in this case to protect the employees that were getting paid to play video games? If you’re a union bro, go on strike from your job. There is strength in numbers.

In some industries, yes. Most industries, no.

Please show me where I weighed any opinion on this union

I’m not supporting a particular company.

You are the one calling someone an idiot for being anti-union.

You are obviously a worker bee.

Why isn’t the union protecting the gamers? Why aren’t you? Or do you just prefer to shout at the sky?

Outside of the trades like carpenters, electricians, etc, unions are very much out dated, ineffective, and the only labor they are good for is over seas where the jobs are going.

Like I said, you are emotional. But if you feel this strongly about it, you will talk to your own union members and go on strike to support your fallen comrades.

Maybe you should get to bed before your parents wake up.

so it turns out you agree with me.....very interesting.

I say interesting because that makes you incredibly hypocritical on all of the assumptions you've made about me so far.

It turns out you're actually pro-union as well but still enjoy the taste of corporate dick.

I see the need for unions in the trades. That much is accurate.

I don’t see any value in a union for video gamers.

I’ll ask you again, what benefit did the union provide your comrades at EA Sports?

So you completely went off the deep end for no reason at all and now understand why I called the idiot appropriately an idiot.

Neither do I.

Why do you keep saying comrades? Are you a communist?

You are calling other people an idiot and you can differentiate the different between a trade and unskilled labor?

You have much learn.

I could go back an edit a typo like you did. But I don’t edit posts.

I’m getting ready for my flight. You are the one that needs to go to bed. Your dad will be getting up for work soon.

He doesn’t need to see his daughter up all night fighting people on a computer.

I’m sure he is already ashamed enough.

A: I wasn't referring to your typos
B: I haven't edited any posts so far because of typos.

But I've enjoyed watching you sky-scream for quite literally no reason this morning.

you're more than welcome to convince me that video game testers need a union.

Just because I don't think they do doesn't mean I'm not willing to listen.

Game testing, for instance, is a critical component of a gaming company's success.


It is a job a 10 year old could do. While I agree it is critical, any moron or LSU grad could do it.

The hilarity is that some of the most bugged games that have come out over the last few years come from AAA Developers like EA, Infinity Ward, and Activision.

You bet they’re connected. People think they’re entitled to too much shite now. Either they feel entitled to a cushy job with great pay and benefits, or entitled to not work at all and get living benefits from the govt
