This is such a tired topic already. You're allowed to keep the discussion open but let's make it clear what will result in the topic being locked -

1) Spamming 'SJWs' or 'GG'ers' or similar.

2) Ranting - If your post is just a rant with no insight or anything of value, then it's not welcome in the discussion. Swearing and saying 'F this and F that' is unproductive.

3) Spamming the word 'coward'. Tweeting isn't bravery, deleting a tweeting isn't cowardice. Act like adults, you can praise/ criticise the use of social media, but don't kid yourself to think it's some form of bravery or cowardice.

4) Be civil, be sensible. As ever, just remain sensible and don't attack users. If users start to abuse each other, they will be dealt with and the thread will be locked.



I expect you all to be able to post within the thread without causing any issues. If not, I will moderate the topic and the users involved.

Gersen: This is getting really stupid, honestly if I was CDPR or GoG I think I would simply decide to stop trying to makes jokes or interact with fans on Twitter, just post safe posts informing of new releases on Gog or news on Cyberpunk, at most answer some simple questions but that's it.

In the current PC culture overloaded climate either they decide to continue making jokes and they own them once the usual dum-dum gets offended by them or they stop and only post "safe" and "sanitized" things, but IMHO they cannot have it both ways, trying to make jokes and then apologizing every time some morons are triggered by them (which will only happens more and more sadly) only manage to make things worse.
500+ tweets, two mistakes without ill intent. Hardly calls for turning the feeds into generic newsfeeds.

Gersen: Yes but that's the two that everybody are talking about, the two who triggered controversies and click bait articles and then the third one happens (and it will happen) nobody will cares about the other 500+ tweets either and the same thing will restart again.
'And it will happen'

I feel like a discussion with a person who has already made their mind up is fruitless, and also a wider issue within modern social media and interactions online. Thank you for presenting your point in a civil manner, hopefully, others will follow your lead.

Gersen: I know I might sound a little negative and maybe even cynical, but honestly do you really think that those were two tweets will be just some isolated incidents and that something similar won't happen again any time soon ? especially now that some peoples will start scrutinize everything you (you as in CDPR / Gog ) post, I wouldn't be surprised if as we speak some peoples are going through all of those 500+ old tweets you mention in hope of finding something else that they could even remotely consider offensive.

Again that might sound cynical and it probably is but we live in a time were some bad jokes you posted on Twitter X years ago can get you fired and dumb meme end up being considered as "hate symbol".
They already did, and nothing turned up bar some desperate attempt to link a joke about being a parent to kidnapping.

soxy_lady: *mod note

Your post was removed as it clearly ignored the 4 points I stated earlier. This one was edited for the same reason.

And just like that, people have failed to stay on topic.

I made clear what would lock the topic, and what would keep it open. People have ignored this, and thus the topic will be locked. Please do not spread this behaviour into other threads.
