Hurlshort Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Some skeezy stuff about MCA, yikes. It sounds like it will not affect the development of the game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have agreed if it was a one off thing, getting a (underage looking at the time) girl dead drunk and try to get into her pants (there was no mutual agreement to stop, not sure where you picked up that, maybe from one of the user comments who made it up). But it seems it (sexual harassment) was a pattern over several years and not a unique thing. Sounds not unlike the Harvey Weinstein stuff... which may be why companies want to distance themselves a bit. But, like so many other things, it would be nicer if processed in a courtroom, with processes and proceeds, than the internet judge, jury and executioners on forums. False allegations have happened before.

That seems like an overreaction to a response that you seem to feel is an overreaction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are Neotounus people to be consigned to isolation because they look underage? As far as I can make of it, he had the misfortune of being in conventions where alcohol and overly sensitive people were present. A bad sex proposal is no reason to treat a man like a rapist.

In the US, people convicted of rape face some sort of penalty from the judicial system (this has not happened to MCA). People who sexually harass others (what MCA *has* been accused of) are likely to lose their jobs (which may have happened to MCA in at least one case). People who gain a reputation of sexual harassment (again, what MCA *has* been accused of) are likely to find employers willing to work with them (this *has* happened to MCA). As stated by others above, you are blowing things out of proportion while arguing that others are blowing things out of proportion. 2 "Art and song are creations but so are weapons and lies" "Our worst enemies are inventions of the mind.

Nobody (except you so far) brought up 'rape' here. Sexual harassment has been alleged. Using his industry position for the purpose has been alleged. But it sounds like you've already declared the alleged victims (plural) guilty. Victim blaming is not an uncommon response in third world countries.

The only one who said anything about having refused him was Chris. Oh yeah, and because she was having her period, which may have had something to do with it. There was no mutual agreement to "stop" (more likely Chris got turned off by the idea of sex with a girl having her period, no matter how horny he was and how passed out she was) “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.
