Swifty NPC removed from the game due to accusations?

[Illusions]

This is exactly what i meant when i said i wont click those links...because ill just end up being a wannabe specialist on the topic.
Your post...i hate it. Im sorry.

Aren't you a wannabe specialist on the topic anyway by starting the thread and complaining about cancel culture you seem to be a specialist on?

How did you see his guilty by that lol are you suffering from selective reading disorder.

I can wait for your evidence besides your bullshit argument

no it's the other guy above you, the archaic forums are too clumsy to multi-quote

[Miseration]

I would like to cancel cancel culture. Does no one good. Absolutely no one.

[Oakshana]

They basically threw him under the bus instantly...
The action of removing everything about swifty from the game is the same as saying "we think he is guilty"

And basically...its done...he is not coming back...even if proven innocent.

I hate companies...

That's not ENTIRELY true. Chris Hardwick was removed from a variety of sources until it people arrived at the conclusion that he more than likely did not do what he was accused of. Then he was returned to the Nerdist website listed as the founder, to hosting the Talking Dead, the the Wall, etc. It's not common but it DOES happen.

Most often when the accusation occurs companies will look to distance themselves immediately, because it's easier to put things back if the individual is innocent. It's much harder to save face when they are guilt of the accusation and people brand them with not giving a shit.

Also... it's a fucking video game. Swifty is not a god.

Yeah uh i dunno, there is cases of people being falsely accused, neil degrasse tyson almost got cancelled, you had that fat lady tara reade that tried to cancel joe biden, she turned out ot be a total fraud. No one should be cancelled unless there is corroborating evidence. Swifty seems like a pretty progressive guy so i dont see any poltiical motivated why theyd try to cancel him

[Shiza]

I just found out the quartering (a channel i have on my BLOCK list of youtube) put up a video about how much he hates cancel culture.

Now THAT is true hypocrisy.
This is hilarious.

I found the video by typing on youtube "cancel culture" by accident.

I mean, he was kicked out of Magic the Gathering for harassing and stalking a woman, so naturally he is outraged.

And I guess you are a fan of BuzzFeed and vice right

Not really. I rarely read Vice and if I do, its mostly out of boredom for fun or interesting articles, never really for news.

2020. I wish I could end someone's livelihood too with nothing but allegations, but my boobs are attached to a man. Shit out of luck, manboobs..

[munkeyinorbit]

Why do you keep trying to push the "view" i only care about things in a videogame and dont care about woman...

I just have a personal vandetta against ruining peoples lives without proof.

You clearly are not well informed about other cases on the internet.
People wrongly accused of being pedos get their life ruined
SWATTings ending in death
There is a lot of this cases

No. You have a personal vendetta against people you like getting accused. I bet if there was overwhelming evidence and blizzard took the innocent until proven guilty stance you wouldn't be here with your pitchfork ranting about that poor girl.

[fwc577]

Look...if im wrong and the guy turns out to be a monster...ill opologize (lol, nobody cares but whatever)

I may be biased because im strongly against cancel culture, outrage channels and gossip channels.

What im trying to say is
There is peoples lives at stake and we cant simply cosplay Robin Hood and go around destroying peoples lives WITHOUt PROOF.
That is wrong
That is the Police job.

Thats my standing on this topic.

I posted you the evidence and you're response is refusal to click the links. It's clear you're a Swifty fanboi since you don't actually want to know the truth.

[Lorgar Aurelian]

It’s an npc who cares? They can just add it back in if they want to.

[docterfreeze]

In what universe would someone's contribution to a video game warrant them being recognized in a positive manner despite being a convicted sexual abuser??


Answer quickly.

His achievements are separate from his personal life. Similar to putting up a statue of Gandhi, does it get torn down because of racism?

[ravenmoon]

So...I guess you're a hugh fan of the Quartering?

Not really, although I am not a fan of sacking a person without proving whether they're guilty or not.

[Charmanderp]

I think insinuating that you can find the "truth" from those links is just a little bit disingenuous.

[MoanaLisa]

I read Swifty's statement on all of this. He says the accusations are false but then there's also a lot of "It was never my intention..." and "To my knowledge, I have never..." verbiage. So it seems there's something there. How much and how serious is hard to say.

As for the NPC, I don't see that as any sort of loss to the game. Blizzard already has too much outdated cultural crap in the game that has no business being there.

There's a whole culture within gaming being called out now. That's fine. It needs to happen.

As Asmongold said, it seemed like some lawyer talk here. Sadly there's no proof if what was said was false or true in his case and we'll never know the truth because of pride, money or attention. And sadly if that's not true a lot of people will suffer of this because that's the kind of question we'll always ask. And one day, someone won't be able to take it and there will be blood. But I hope this never happens.

To me, he's innocent until proven guilty. He's supposed to be protected by the Fourth Amendment but hey, the constitution is only about rights, not money so nobody cares about that.

[Lery]

I'm just here blown away thinking all this time Swifty was into the boys. This is surprising!

[Bigbazz]

Yes, now read it again.

Does it read like someone who's innocent and got sexual abuse accusations thrown at him?

No - it reads like someone who's guilty and got accused, and is now trying to show his innocence by saying how great he is. One line of 'these are false btw' among several paragraphs of 'look at me im so nice' is not a good look.

Also mighty hilarious to see his statement end with 'these are the only comments I will be posting regarding this situation' knowing he would just be lying himself into a deeper grave if he said more.

In what situation would it make any sense for someone to get into a "he said, she said" argument on the internet? This topic is not for the internet to pass judgement, it's a civil matter between two people or it's a criminal matter to be dealt with by the law. Going on the internet and addressing every point would just be dumb.

I really don't see the logic here that him trying to point his values is some admission of guilt. I mean that really more speaks to me as a projection of your own reaction to similar situations. Because plenty of innocent people have responded in such a way, everyone is different and It's really scary to think that people will pass judgement for not responding to a situation in the way they feel is right.

What speaks more than anything is that Swifty is known widely for his gentle/caring persona. This is gonna be another Johnny Depp case I'm 99% certain, some crazy evil bitch trying to ruin a persons career because something didn't go her way, and if I'm wrong I will eat my words.

I would generally agree if it weren't for an email from 2015 from Koozy to Origin PC about the disturbing shit that happened to Nano_Kitten.

Everyone seems to be ignoring the actual victim here. I suspect due to misogyny, because they can point at Takarita and say Swifty did nothing wrong.

They're both assholes and they should both be cancelled. Swifty likely needs to go get treated for sex addiction and Takarita needs to likely join AA meetings.

Origin PC also ended their sponsorship of Swifty. (And rightfully so, but the sponsorship cancel should've occurred in 2015)
