Dat diversity meeting....man what a time to be alive. Surely there are no more fitting topics for gaming convention.
Dat diversity meeting....man what a time to be alive. Surely there are no more fitting topics for gaming convention.
"Orange Goblin is a heavy metal band from London, United Kingdom primarily performing in the stoner metal genre" -wikipedia. Other than that I have no fucking idea what it is, you americunt. Somehow I still have this feeling that you are bullshitting. You leave something out or just outright lie.
Can you not see what you are doing? You are whining how they should have their hugfestival and how we need to talk about things yet you QQ when I voice my opinions. I guess you are one of those "every opining is important and matters and we should talk about thing as long as you agree with me" -persons. So I'll just answer you with your own words: My opinions don't hurt anyone. You're making a huge deal out of nothing.
Or perhaps I should've followed this advice
Please don't respond to trolls.
I'm in the "I don't have an obnoxiously large signature" club.
You are 'murican so I get that it's hard to wrap your head around this but I'll try to help you. People are not worked up about diversity. There's nothing wrong with that. People are simply tired of this constants talk about diversity. Of course it doesn't help that you can't really discuss diversity (voice positive and negative things about it). It's just a giant circlejerk "LOOK HOW ACCEPTING AND DIVERSE WE ARE GIVE US GOOD PEOPLE POINTS WE ACCEPT EVERYONE BUT NOT REALLY BECAUSE YOU ARE A NAZI IF YOU DON'T AGREE WITH EVERYTHING WE SAY AND DO HURRDURR". So... yeah.

And they still can't balance the fucking game
Im sry to say to everyone but that picture on the front page of all the devs has been photo shopped!
Here is the original copy....;
I can't be the only one amused by how the term "triggered" first became a mocking term to describe "SJW", but nowadays seems to apply to a ton of anti-Social Justice Warriors, whenever a subject like Diversity is mentioned. Whenever anything related to equality pops up, you can expect a bunch of triggered crybabies to have a massive public freak-out.
Live the diversity and the photo. It's like a where's Waldo of spotting the black guy in a sea of white men.
ah the comments in here are great, but lol diversity meetings. are these supposed to make america not racist?
good luck with that.
While I ignore all the culture wars bullshit raging around me, let me say that the gnome race thingy was fun.
You failed to mention genetics.

The problem with your "opinion" is that "minorities" expect "whites" to value their input in a Western, i.e. "white" society. Regardless, this type of nonsense doesn't have a place at a gaming convention nor a gaming forum. Now, if you don't mind, I would prefer to see more speculation about the upcoming expansion.

Always good to lighten the mood.
I'm surprised, I honestly expected 0 women working on development. Seems like in most game companies, there are
drastically few women (if any) on any development teams compared to men (obviously). There were actually quite a
few women there.
Although not a single black person to be found. I guess that would explain the lack of black characters in Warcraft!
How does that relate at all what I said?
I'm not talking about hiring for diversity, I'm talking about getting more people interested in the field so that more people will pursue relevant education and build strong protfolios so that there's more competition and even more cream to rise to the top.
When did posting a comment on MMO-Champion equate to being triggered or commonly lead to a massive public freak-out?
Granted, the diversity meet-up seems silly to me. But my life will continue as it has been. Although, I would like to the ability to disagree with an event without the involvement of calling someone triggered from either side of the fence. It's just a cringe inducing word.
I like cheese.
Oh look, so many Mexicans!
White color is under attack...
Perhaps education is useful..somewhere.
Today on an EU server found an US player, we asked, why do you play here? His answer: Did you see the us servers, cesspool, all of them. Politics, hate, spewing disgusting things. I'm paraphrasing, but cesspool was one of his point.
Not the first time I meet with hatred from there, when I get it in beta, there are always so dense people, it just hurts the experience, and sucks out any joy we have. In WoD beta, we were called eurotrash, just for existing, Asian and Russian players were mocked by them. It is so bad, many of us are trying to avoid talking on chat, or any interaction with US players. There are nice people amongst them, but majority... Never seen such spite from any fellow non-US members. There are bickering, but US level is a new record.
In Europe generally we see more diversity, not ideal on some fields ofc, but we don't live our life without seeing someone from a different nation, we have that everyday.
So when a word like "diversity" just appears, they are frigging triggered, holy moly. Of frigging course they will not hire an incompetent dude just for being Asian/Black/Blue/Purple, good gods you are so dense. But they try to have more cultures, more backgrounds, more diverse opinions because it is a frigging creative group, to come out with new ideas, to cater bigger audience than your basement. People play from all around the world, and it doesn't revolve around you. The more the merrier, more viewpoints more ideas to add. Gods forbid they want to unite they team even if they have their differences. Do you know about team building meetings? Or like colleagues going to a trip or a drink and the company pays for it? No? Yeah, we have that here. Same poop on that line.
Homogeneity is death of creativity, death of inspiration, death of freeing your mind, to look outside of your box and also: death of many nations.
Lore or game has many cultures in it, it is so diverse, without diversity it would be so bland. Those are coming from variety of cultures and people. Are you triggered by that too?
/rant
Has anybody mentioned this whiny comment yet i can't be arsed to check them.
"WE LOST A RAID TIER COZ OF ALL THEM DOGS!"
A simple look at the answers here proves your point. I rolled a character in EU once and trade chat was used for.... wait for it.... TRADE! None of that TRUMP TRUMP MAGA MAGA bullshit we see all day long. People on these forums love to imagine problems with diversity and equality.
