Hey aren’t you the druid who attacked the other guy in the other thread earlier?
That is YOUR opinion. Which you are perfectly entitled to but I simply don’t agree with you.
Mine is different, in MY opinion companies have every right to distance themselves and it is not a judgement unless they make a statement. I have seem statements when distancing or cutting ties from many.
This is not one of those situations. In fact no statement at all has been made. It’s the players that have gone looking.
Ha ha how funny…
Hopefully twitter will change their policies so people have to think twice before posting all that nonsense which is often extremely damaging to reputation/mental health. I havent used twitter for years as I find it extremely toxic and I dont want to be a part of environment where 1000 idiots are smarter than 1 genius.

And yet, while we don’t know the truth about Swifty, and likely never will, his ingame NPC is prob gone for good. And if he’s innocent, which we have to believe until proven otherwise, then that’s damage caused to him and his reputation.
But thank god Blizz’s brand is secured. Who else has an ingame NPC? Ima start writing some Twitter statements about those.
Accusations without proof simply shouldn’t cause harm in such ways. Sure, screw the NPC it’s not a big deal, the message behind it is though.

But if you lose your job and no one wants you because you got accused how is not a judgement?
We live in a time where being accused on Twitter of harassment is worse than having police knocking at your door because someone got killed (if you are truly innocent ofc).

Of course companies can distance themselves but at least be consistent. Like one balding but very reasonable streamer said: spineless…

It’s a bit of a stretch saying that Blizzard removing an npc and achievement are the reasons that Swifty, who is presumably self employed, may struggle to make money from streaming.
It is nothing to do with Blizzard which is exactly why they are removing themselves from the equation.
I honestly have no idea what you are referring to so I can’t comment.
Instead of crying about cancel culture how about just not sexually assaulting people?

No of course Swifty won’t struggle to make money because of that.
But he may do because if everyone distance themselves from him like Blizzard did, he won’t have any more sponsor, less subs, less viewer and overall he will not have the same income.
(ofc I don’t know the numbers and how much damage a thing like this can cause)
I am just saying that if everyone distance themselves and treat said person as guilty as soon as they get accused, if said person live thanks to his image that person is f-ed.
No one is excusing sexual assault.
But people can’t be canceled cause of an accusation that can’t be either proved or dismissed.

I think you missed the point, Just because someone says someone sexually assaulted someone doesn’t make it true.
Dreamkore sexually assaulted a girl. <<< see how easy it is?

Indeed and they all need to be more Keanu Reeves when it comes to engaging with the public (or their team mates for that matter). Even if he poses for photos with fans he’s careful to be sure his hands can be seen not on the woman’s body.
I imagine this protects him against any potential claims.

Of course innocent until proven guilty must be upheld, but the root of the problem is sexually suggestive actions in a professional environment.
Don’t be sexually suggestive in the workplace and all allegations of this kind fall flat.

I was honestly just expecting a link to a bald person saying something to illustrate what you were talking about.

Stretching it too far with hover hand honestly. You must be able to hug someone without being accused.

I think you need to read into it more, That’s not exactly what happened, Also as adults it’s not against the law to flirt with someone. I think people forgot that. Flirting isn’t against the law. It seems the Twitter army forgot that.
