Quote from: wmarshal;1085631Now that there is a lawsuit Stacy has decided to ignore the actions she took against SJG, GaryCon etc.

https://m.facebook.com/sdellorfano/posts/2472197469459742

Per the above statement it's all just about Bill Webb. Maybe it should be (Or not. We should find out more as the process rolls on.), but she pretends she didn't lead a boycott against Gary Con or try to rile up an internet mob against SJG. No mention of those actions though it's almost guaranteed those will play a significant role in suit.

Wow, this was an unbearable read. Good to see everything has been completely sorted out though!:rolleyes: Also I'm not sure what "aggressively misgendered" means but now the accusations are spreading to MORE FGG employees! Ha! "Attacked, threatened, blacklisted, brigaded, more"?? "For your victims, it's a lifetime sentence" LOL! Apparently the lawyer is alt-right too, by the way. Who knew!

This rollercoaster just refuses to stop. How long until she accuses herself of something and collapses into a singularity of her own making?

I love how she's essentially calling for Bill's head at this point. "Bill, it's simple. Resign. Take a couple years off from the con circuit." "You do that, we lay off." A lynch mob coming after him after his sentencing in their court of public opinion, and seemingly attempted blackmail and blatantly publicized deliberate harassment as well. Ridiculous.

I hope the suit happens and she gets sued into the dirt.

Quote from: BrokenCounsel;1085637Oh how fucking glorious! You can feel the panic rising as the objections rise. Yet instead of owning their actions (like, y'know, they've been insisting SJG, Webb and FGG do), or apologizing and backing down (like, y'know, SJG should be doing), they squeal, panic, and lock the shit-show so they don't have to listen to the unwashed fucking masses. Fucking hypocrits.

Hypocrites indeed. Although I'm not sure they have the mental faculties necessary to feel panic, let alone summon rational thought or self-awareness.

Quote from: Shasarak;1085640You do know that you four just made the list, right?

If I was a betting man I would wager that you are all gone in under 4 weeks.

God I hope so. I could use some more personal vindication.

This is just nonsensical enough to be possible. Or possibly "red-text bully sympathy trolling".

Quote from: Motorskills;1085729But ISTM if someone gets injured pulling a drunk off / away from another person, that injury is ultimately on the drunk, even if the injury was unintended.

Actually, if that drunk wasn't an imminent physical threat to someone, then putting hands on them can be a crime. Even if the drunk is talking shit (so long as they are not making credible threats), there is no need to put hands on them. Just call the police and let them deal with the disruptive asshole.

And that assumes that Webb was actually drunk. Considering the lack of facts so far coming from the accusations, they could have easily assumed he was drunk and he wasn't.

Actually, it wouldn't matter if he were drunk or not. All that matters is if her is an imminent physical threat.

Oh lord.

Ah, Wormmonda. This is the piece of work that quite recently decided to do an assassination job on some Kickstarter Heartbreaker, by calling out how utterly Nazi they were for creating a game that eschewed the NuThink and espoused 'traditional' fantasy values. And to be truthful, there was a grain of truth in some of what she/it/whatever was saying. But just like Delafornicate, she sees it as something of her job description to deliberately hunt for and character assassinate what she perceives to be Sins Against the Victims and Righteous Innocents, twisting away with increasing vitriol, until she whips up a spiteful hate mob of blood-baying fuck-knuckles.

So I don't buy her "I'm no longer an active member of the RPGnet forums, but I still lurk there every once in a while to get my gaming news", because she was plenty active quite recently.

Unpleasant piece of work.

The more I read stuff like this... the more I am concerned for our society-at-large.

We've had people on this forum confirm that Webb is (was) a habitual drunk at conventions and was "high-strung". His decision-making abilities seem flawed at best*. And AFAIK, Webb isn't denying that he was drunk, that put his arms around a colleague and called her 'sweetie', which is unprofessional at best (especially to a subordinate / contractor).

*Edit: which is why using some low level of force to remove him from the situation could be justified, for the safety of others. IANAL / IANALEO.

By her writing, she appears to be fairly unhinged.

Fairly? Understatement of the week.

QuoteJoint Statement of BJ Hensley and Frog God Games

Nearly two years ago, both BJ Hensley and Bill Webb attended Paizo Con 2017 representing their respective companies. On the first day of the convention, Bill Webb engaged in several inappropriate and unprofessional interactions with BJ Hensley. Since then, many third parties have commented, weighed in, and in some cases, exaggerated what happened. BJ Hensley and Frog God Games now jointly call for a cessation of attacks by all third parties on either/both BJ Hensley and Frog God Games.

In concert with this desire, both parties have agreed not to engage in any litigation against the other. Everyone involved simply wants resolution and peace. Both parties want this to be a teachable moment that does not further divide but encourages everyone to consider how they can improve their own behaviors and the behaviors of those around them.

Finally, both parties believe that all members, companies, and conventions involved in the tabletop gaming industry need to adhere to and actively promote a higher code of conduct that ensures respect, safety, and welcome spaces for each and every participant in the tabletop gaming hobby.

As a gesture of good faith Frog God Games will donate the charitable portion of one of their next charity bundles to RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network) in addition to an immediate donation to RAINN in the amount of $1,000.00.

Additional Note from Frog God Games

In light of this joint statement, we would like to reiterate our request to our fans that they not make attacks on BJ in any way. As noted above, there are people who have exaggerated her words for their own benefit, but she has repeatedly and publicly attempted to stop that escalation. She is not the wrongdoer, and we ask that everyone please keep this in mind.

This will still not satisfy the mob.
