K181 posted... Now this one is surprising, but telling. Ellie was seemingly being set up as Burnie's protege, to the point that she took over his vlog and was his very public point person. Her leaving RT was a big surprise when it happened, but most just assumed she had gotten a better job offer.this is why contracts have NDA for pay it lets companies screw over minorities and ppl they just dont like in pay --- 3 things 1. i am female 2. i havea msucle probelm its hard for me to typ well 3.*does her janpuu dance* ...

RatedM posted... I could've sworn before they transitioned, Kdin often mentioned having a wife (or girlfriend)? I might be misremembering things then. But regardless, using a slur repeatedly but against someone that isnt that background/orientation isnt magically okay. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. ...

Well, no, of course not, that wasn't my point. The point was that there's a difference between people saying a bad word as an "edgy" joke, versus people purposely targeting someone with a slur based on their sexual preference or gender identity. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I really do not get why you are trying to so hard to downplay what happened. It doesn't matter if they were "just joking", she didn't like it regardless. They were creating a hostile working environment for her and nothing was being done about that on top of the wage theft and forced overtime. It's in your best interest to shut up about this, because it's very insulting to dismiss their behavior as "just jokes" --- http://i.imgur.com/BBcZDLJ.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

I just think it's fair to keep certain context in mind to avoid making certain assumptions about people that aren't necessarily true. You literally are. You keep stating how it was all just "edgy jokes" when that is irrelevant. They were calling her a slur as her nickname, told her to "deal with it", underpaid her, and forced her to work overtime. It does not matter that they were just being "edgy". --- http://i.imgur.com/BBcZDLJ.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

There is no justification for running a company terribly. That being said, most of them were kids themselves when they started running the company. Kids who obviously has no idea what they were doing and no idea how to run a respectful company that is inclusive and not reflective of jock mentality. It is also what kinda got them noticed? Like if you look at the history of RT, the thing that got them on the map was being crass, disrespectful, and shitty. You just kinda assume anyone who wants to work for them would be "in on it", and they had no idea how to operate any other way. --- https://i.imgur.com/GWG5c3r.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

But now that it's coming out that majority of people weren't "in on it" and when complaints were brought up they were just disregarded. That's just not acceptable. I don't care that they were just doing edgy humor in the early 2010s. I enjoyed it back then. I care that they constantly hurt people and did nothing to address their complaints. --- http://i.imgur.com/BBcZDLJ.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

Oh of course. There is no excuse. Seems their HR basically was like, "If you don't like it here just leave", which is not appropriate. --- https://i.imgur.com/GWG5c3r.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

RT was at least the second company that the founders ran, after the call center And call centers are like some of the worst exploitative industries, so the wage theft thing might be a holdout from that --- Kreml delenda est ...

ultimate_reaver posted... idk anything about rooster teeth except red vs blue, did any of those guys end up being hitler or whatever yet Burnie, the voice of Church, was the long-standing head honcho of the company, and then frontman for the company after he sold it for a huge profit, before moving on. Theres zero chance he didnt directly know about pay inequity and the widespread use of slurs from his positions in the company. He has long since bounced from Rooster Teeth, though. Geoff, the voice of Grif, ran the lets play channels of the company, meaning he was in charge of video production and streaming content where a lot of asshole behavior took place. He already bungled up a major racism scandal that they had a couple years back, but tearfully apologized and promised to be better, though the end result of that was to seemingly to continually ignore misogyny, homophobia, and transphobia for at least a couple more years (even being called out for his bullshit by the main accuser just a day ago). Gus, the voice of Simmons, hasnt seemingly been directly implicated by anything yet, but he was high enough up for so long that he almost assuredly and at the very least willingly turned a blind eye to a lot of issues and complaints. I dont know what he does anymore, since he no longer runs RTX, beyond being a podcaster, and if anything might be an example of someone riding a cushy and well-paying do-nothing job for having founded the company. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. ...

tremain07 posted... Bros, turns out Kdlin is a racist person The reason I've avoided posting this is because these are new twitter accounts coming out just to smear Kdin. While I don't approve of what Kdin did, I don't want to give these accounts the attention to sway away from the actual criticism towards RT. The fact that RT underpays, forces crunch time, and HR ignores workplace harassment are not okay regardless what kind of person Kdin was/is. Just for the record on these being new accounts. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/9/5/2/AAQF_uAADyqg.jpg https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/9/5/3/AAQF_uAADyqh.png --- http://i.imgur.com/BBcZDLJ.png ...
