ResetEra has yet another thread about this. The last two were locked. In both of those threads the posters were actually mostly FOR her being fired. Not surprisingly, the mods there locked those two threads. Can't have those kinds of opinions floating around. Let's see how long this third thread lasts since it's pretty much the same thing. A few people defending her like she did nothing wrong and it's all those horrible "alt-right GamerGate woman-hating MANS!" and the majority saying she was a bitch who got what she deserved. She must be incredibly ignorant to not understand how acting that way towards customers and partners can get you shitcanned.

Cause apparently, it's all GamerGate and the Twitter Russian bots' faults

Oh my sweet Jesus. Of course this is going to get ridiculous. Because of course it is. Those tweets from Brianna Wu make me want to wrestle strangers in a parking lot.

This just adds to of reasons, that if I could delete 1 website from the Internet it would be twitter.

Jessica Price also celebrated Total Biscuit's death, so yeah. Fantastic person.

Yeah she is getting absolute sympathy from me, quite frankly I hope she does work in video games writing again. I am sure there are plenty of writers who are both kinder and much more talented then her anyways.

I made a reply o reset era, watch me get moderated there xD

The site is pretty toxic. You will be modded almost always. People will always put words in your mouth too. Anything there is considered trolling. The list goes on. 

ResetERA might have the worst moderation I have seen of any site, it truly is the biggest example of how gaming forums can easily turn into an echo-chamber and it does not help that the mods enforce it to become one. 



LMFAO, want a good laugh? Her opinion on Infinity War is something alright.

 



I never payed any attention to Brianna Wu in the past and I just found out (im sure many of you know) that shes running for House?! In MA? And shes involved in my district. Holy shit this person cannot win. I am not a fan of anything she does!

They just locked the thread, too. The accusations against GG and defense of Jessica Price's volatile behavior were very questionable, in my opinion. Just because Deroir happened to disagree (slightly) with a female writer, that doesn't make him a sexist nor was he "mansplaining" (which is the most bullshit made-up term ever). Fortunately, there were more comments, if not plenty, siding with ArenaNet's actions and Deroir.

You can say whatever you want on the net but if it's tied to your real identity, most employers won't side with ya if you say some crazy shit or something that crosses a line.

I like twitter. You can see what some of these people actually think. Especially reporters, activists, celebrities, etc.

I would delete resetera and any copies that its members try to create.

Of course they did. It's the same shit with ResetEra again and again and again. Look at the people who got banned for pointing out that people were blaming this all on "GamerGate" instead of her shitty behavior. They banned these people for "downplaying a hate movement". Only someone eager to shut down opposition to their ideals while trying to look remotely justified would pull that garbage. Yet I see actual personal attacks on people in that thread, essentially drive-by insults on people who agreed with her firing, and they didn't get moderated.

The thread was clearly showing that most of the people giving their two cents agreed to her being fired and a shitty person. So just like they did with the first two threads, they shut it down because they have to silence opinions that dissent from the hivemind of that forum. It also wasn't at all surprising to see people continually defend her shitty response to Total Biscuit's death as if he legit organized harassment mobs. All because he didn't mind people like Sarkeesian and Wu getting called out for their bullshit. To them that was equal to him supporting death threats. That's like you telling someone you like pumpkin pie and they call you a terrorist because they heard about a terrorist who also likes pumpkin pie. Like they honestly keep trying to lump ANYONE who disagrees with their views as a horrible harasser of women, gays, and minorities.

Whoa Whoa Whoa.... With tweets like this, it's not hard to believe that she's been on the company's hitlist for a while now. Good riddance.
