r/leagueoflegends - Has no one else noticed that Daniel Z Klein is calling the league community here "manbabies" for discussing the issue at PAX?

So because women are these "victims" they need special treatments 24/7 because they're, as seen by riot, not able to do anything by themselves and need help all the way through everything. Isn't that even more sexist? To believe women can't do anything themselves and need constant help?

This makes 2 people I would never want in my company.

Klein is stupid and always will be. His Twitter is for personal use, though, so you can't do anything about it. He's not speaking officially on behalf of the company.

His girlfriend is something else.

Okay, outside of the whole sexism debate, this is just plain unprofessional. I mean, regardless of whether you agree with him or not, a Riot employee absolutely should not say this kind of stuff. It’s one thing to state your beliefs and something else entirely to insult the intelligence of players everywhere. Is he trying to destroy Riot’s PR more than this whole thing already has? A company as undeniably successful as Riot does not need an employee like that who has no eye or ear for constructive discussion and only makes a bad situation worse. If he loses his job, then good riddance. I can work through poor game design (not to invalidate anybody’s complaints; I just have an “IDGAF” attitude when it comes to that), but I draw the line at shit like this.

the man has yasuo as his twitter "background".

Seriously though. The fuck is this dude doing? this one just shows all you really need to know. https://imgur.com/a/PfObR7f The person in question states that they see this as a positive move in the way that riot is showing change. No matter your stance on the situation riot showing they're doing something with good intentions is good. And this dude just tells em to fuck off. He's bad for the company, no matter what your opinion is this dude is just genuinly bad for the company. I'm not even talking about his ideology, just from a marketing standpoint. What he's doing is basically like saying "if you don't like it don't buy our game" and i mean i think battlefield has showed us that's a bad idea.

Ya know atleast sanjuro calling t1 a damn homuculus was funny. This dude is just pathetic.

and i prolly can't say this cuz i'll get some mods attention but remember what got dunkey banned? that's what i'm thinking.

I always laugh when they have to cater likes from twitter which is a place where asctual discussion can't be taken because how short messages can be, he is basically patitng his own shoulder, I wonder if he has the gut to go either on Reddit or here and defend his position.
