Lamentation Of Women To Follow


No news for lunch today (and probably the rest of the week) but had to note this:

Funcom GM cybers hot chick, Crying Game twist, is fired

Really, what more needs be said.

    Concering Funcoms handling with truth so far with Age of Conan, somethings telling me, it’s just their latest marketing idea.

    I am stunned beyond words . . .

    That this wasn’t the work of the SA goons or the Flowers of Happiness

    I wonder if that was my boss’s friend who got fired. I’ll ax her.

    I hope the sudden return to random updates isn’t related to this

    LOL. Brings back old memories of AOL’s Neverwinter Nights… one of the assistant GMs (titled NWA Dvorak) got caught doing the -exact- same thing, complete with screenshots. It stayed underground, though, I think. But it was 13 years ago. It was a different time?

    The more things change.

    I thought that was one of the perks of the job!

    Bwahaha, some of that was absolutely hysterical.

    Why people don’t keep stuff like that to private whispers or party chat I’ll never know.

    Shouldn’t women be in quotes?

    Lamentation of the “women”

    Since I assume real women will not be lamenting :)

    This guy gave an interview and it seems there’s more to the story:

    Funcom’s CS absolutely sucks and they treat US players like crap, but this guy is a complete jackass.

    Alright, this guy quailifies as the “Dumbest. GM. EVAR.”

    Being fired was kinda a foregone conclusion after reading the chatlog.

    Sucker…
