Star Wars Age of Alliances: Hadrix and Cujo

If part of the point of hashing out these tales in public is to warn people about creepers, should this convo re: Merek be spun off to a so-titled post of its own?

Honestly? From my brief skim of that vague MSB discussion, from three years ago about an event that happened over a year before that, it seems that he had a rather inappropriate request, was rejected, and respected that boundary.

So perhaps we can talk about something more recent, and less vague?

throws some red meat, to get things back on track!

AoA staff just wiped the nom counts of most of the banned players, so that Hadrix & Co can bask in the glory of being best. They must feel so proud of themselves.

(The point being the players that were ousted were the game’s best, with the nom counts that went along with that).

Suck it, aoa. You’re a dying game.

I mean they’re doing a great job of representing their source material.

Yeah, they also demonstrate that Star Wars is only really good when an unsung woman (and presumably a team under her direction) did a bunch of work in editing because the men weren’t that great at writing.

@SpilledBeanz
It’s worth noting that ONLY the people who were on the noms list had their noms wiped. They aren’t even hiding it well lol

Before:

After:

ALSO the guy that they were so proud of banning was still on the noms board until this. So, this “banning policy that has always been there” (which magically was enacted to ban everyone suspected of involvement or guilty of checks notes being angry that this harassment occurred) didn’t apply to David Ironsides - who was sending people sexual images a YEAR AGO - until they pulled this.

They were quicker to take action against the staffer who moved against predators than they were the actual predators. They were quicker to take action against people who said “uhhhh this seriously happened and y’all didn’t care???” or who were simply ASSOCIATED with the people who moved against predators than they were the predators.

So much for “Standard procedure”.

@Drowsy That this is called “Cujo’s Cup” – the jokes are writing themselves.

@BloodAngel

This is more the angle I was thinking about ‘cup’. But, you know, that’s the angle I’m always thinking.

[BloodAngel]

@Pavel Well done.

[Jax]

Wow 2805 is a lot of +noms. It’s not 3089 +nom impressive.

[Bessarion]

@mietze I was not implying that he wasn’t capable of being sexually inappropriate, but rather that given my own experience with him, it felt out of character and the commentary felt like punching down. I have since been corrected in my understanding.

[IoleRae]

Perhaps the default assumption, in relation to instances of sexual abuse, should not be “bitches be lying” or “bitches be mistaken” when it’s brought up, even if an individual personally did not experience it. Can we perhaps not do that? Fucking please?

[Pax]

[Bessarion]

@IoleRae Yeah, that was my bad and it’s not cool. I genuinely thought they were mixing people up, and even if that was the case, I shouldn’t have said anything unless I knew for sure that they weren’t.

You’re not the only one that did it, but I REALLY appreciate the self-awareness and acknowledgment. Even I pull this shit sometimes, it’s really damn engrained.

You’re not wrong. Each nom level had a description, and Cujo’s Cup said something like “Think about it” as its description.

[Bessarion]

Seeing the name Adhar reminds me that he was a creep, but I can’t remember why.

[bear_necessities]

@IoleRae wanting a conversation about someone being pitiful/pathetic and potentially mentally disabled to end is not the same as dismissing someone’s complaint about sexual harassment. @Wizz provided a link to the complaint (which, thank you, because I can’t search MSB) and if the conversation wants to focus there then that is fine.
