SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

The RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

Jessica Price, that useful idiot formerly of Paizo who spent much of her career saying awful things on Twitter about TTRPGs until she was let go from Paizo in 2017, got a job a year ago as a Story Developer for Guild Wars 2, a moderately popular fantasy MMO.  Never one to pass the opportunity to say "Here, hold my beer" when someone says, "I think that's the most awful way you've behaved towards customers, Jessica," she started an AMA (ask me anything) thread on her Twitter feed, opined that putting a story-arc on an MMO player character is difficult, and when someone (a DIRTY RAPIS...erm, male) suggested otherwise, she attacked him, then sicced her 10000 followers on him, and another developer got into the act.

Well, the company that owns Guild Wars wasn't going to take that shit lying down, and they fired her and the other dev.

So what's the over/under on whether or not she belly-crawls back to TTRPGs since the video game world is so "toxic"?  Or just becomes a pure patreon-whore, doing streams on twitch and e-begging since DIRTY MALES got her fired?
