There is NO reason to keep Community Managers that openly attack the community. They can swiftly be replaced by actual fans of the game.
community damagers
@@UniqueBreakfastTaco This
Spitz was the least of their problems. He at least encouraged the review bombing.
There's no point in community managers. We don't need babysitters
@sincerelynotme3522 Stop your gaslighting he was a massive prick the before and during the debacle. He ironically gave good consumer advice in his condensending post mocking people for having to make a PSN.
Now to get rid of baskinator, the center of this rot
Facts
A pure evil woman. Just sad how someone can become a person like that.
I hope!
Sorry but woman are given different treatment in corporations.
@@LordNithilus Then she can be made to quit.
The community manager the was fired was not the woke one. The one fired was the one that told users "Leave bad reviews so we have more power negotiating with Sony." It's thanks to Spitz that we won. The woke com manager was the other one, "purple someshit" and was not fired
Exactly, Spitz risked his ass for the community. The other has to go
So they axed the wrong head.
It's the agenda being pushed on these political youtubers. Doesn't matter if he was not woke.
Well, realistically, it was Steam, not gamers, but the point still stands.
Look at Spitz first response to the controversy. He showed his true colors. Eff him.
baskinator Needs to be let go to.
And there you go....facts
@@Joshua-xe7rm no, that's a claim. Why do they need to be fired?
@@EckmanJones Because Baskinator and Misty made their twitters private and then deleted them in a time of crisis for the game. Look at Ske7ch from 343, he just takes all the toxicity from the Halo community, never privates his accounts, and either ignores the hate, or doesn't give them the response they want, he's professional, Bakinator and Misty are not.
Until Baskinator, Misty, and Purple Squidgeon are all gone from the discord and fired, not demoted, fired, I don't care how good this game is, I refuse to support it. Purple was the one who made up false sexual abuse allegations against Grummz
@@megaman37456 That makes sense, they refused to do their job.
@@EckmanJones and there you go.
They fired the wrong CM
I'm pretty sure Sony really wanted him fired more than AH.
Nah man, they fired the one CM that caused Sony to take a hit so in their book that's the only one that matters.
@@thibaud1330 idgaf what Sony wants/thinks
No the hell they didn't.
@@Max_Ohm agreed 100%, let's hope they also get rid of baskinator after the defamation of Grummz but I doubt it as it probably doesn't affect Sony directly...
Baskinator is far worse than spitz
And Spitz defended Baskinator just earlier today.
Yeah, but Spitz is the only one who publicly said something that would piss off the mothership.
@@daviddesrosiers1946 He fully supports baskinator and purple. he's in the discord rn saying the same sht as them.
@@JGD714yes mast
Me, an intellectual, just playing the game and ignoring drama.
Spitz was not that bad, that manager apologized. They probably fired Spitz because he told people to leave negative reviews and refund. Baskinator is a million times worse than Spitz.
Nah he was just as bad as the rest
@@violet_paladin No he wasn't actually, he actually fought for us and was on our side during Sony's requirement war.
Agreed. Spitz made some bad moves. But ultimately, he worked towards making things better, and succeeded at the cost of his job. I don't think people should be condemned for being wrong, I think they should be judged on how they resolve the issue. This man 100% showed that he was in the community's camp with his last act of defiance. It may have been the turning point that let us strike back at Sony.
@violet_paladin no way. he was a grounded guy who spoke his mind n told the truth and fell on his sword for the community. baskinator is the ultra woke pronouns/flag in bio scoffing at fans and getting gitty n excited to ban players from the game they purchased. purplesquid was spreading defamatory and slanderous false accusations against grummz in an attempt to destroy his life. Spitz was nowhere as toxic n mentally deranged as the other two. we lost the better of the three and are stuck w the worst two.
Spitz has a history of being a douche CM.
Nah. Spitz sent a message to put bad reviews to put pressure on PSN. That's why he got fired, not for saying dumb stuff to gamers.
The first one was (probably) worse from him, but since he apologized, hes not that bad. I think the gamers should also reminded the CEO that the woke cm woman the one that should get fired as well since he fired spitz
Spitz banned people more than the other mods and fully supports Baskinator and Purple. Baskinator openly wants to use the PSN excuse to ban people she doesnt like and Purple @ccused grummz of SA. He's trying to spin it like he fell on his sword for the game. Only mod who deserves his spot is Treebeard, the rest need to get gone.
@@hilyatulaulia2032 Does anyone know her name
@@hilyatulaulia2032sad
Should be noted that, per him, his sin was the encouraging neg reviews / refunds, not his snarky and nasty interactions with the fan base. And worse, by Baskinator and the one who renamed themselves Byrd (or some such, the one making unsubstantiated sexual assault allegations vs Grummz), have had zero demotions or firings to this point.
"Woke" they fired the wrong damn person. Splitz apologized and suggested review bombing the game. Purple squidgeon should be the one fired for falsely throwing harassment claims at people.
Fire all of them for all I care, sound like he shift with the wind like a grifter, his messages sound egotistic.
ALL the HD2 CMs suck. You're right that Spitz sucked less than some, but Spitz still deserved this. The rest need to go too.
He changed tune only AFTER realizing we were winning. That's called Self-preservation. It doesn't mean he actually agrees with what he said to win us over.
Actions speak louder than words, but his past words and actions paint a drastically different picture that this ONE incident.
It's s ruse to go out looking like a good guy. A play as it were.
@@CommanderRedEXE or he admitted he was wrong after being supplied with facts about how little PSN actually covers. I had zero idea myself that Sony had so many banned regions of the world. He took accountability for his words and pivoted to support the customers/players. You don't execute people when they come over to your side after they see that their side is in the wrong.
@@martinmccormick2166You forget it's the anti-woke crowd. It's either "you're with us or against us" with this group. It's why I've begun to realize how similar they are to the people they claim to despise. If Spitz had called out Baskinator, they'd be praising him as a war hero.
It's truly sad that these people let their own political beliefs blind them from the fact that the guy eventually came around and stood by the playerbase, and ultimately paid for it by losing his job. It's even more pathetic that Yellow Flash is calling him woke. THAT is a wakeup call that this crowd is full of grifters who will gladly turn on their own if it allows them to profit off it
Spitz was the one who told the playerbase to bomb the game so I’m not sure if this was a good decision. Also Spitz wasn’t the one who accused Grummz.
People were review bombing the game before Spitz even said to.
@@alexschmitz3414 yes, that doesn't change the fact that he boosted the call to do that. It helped reach people who hadn't review bombed the game.
He also defended Baskinator earlier today. No doubt if the one that had accused Grummz hadn't already been demoted he'd be defending him too. Dude just did damage control, and look at how much it worked. He's still the same piece of shit. Never "changed sides".
@martinmccormick2166 just no, he sold us out ans then tried to back trap.
@@martinmccormick2166I really don’t think Spitz helped nearly as much as you say they did. Unless infuriating the community counts.
Every community manager that was against players should be fired!
Did they get rid of the female bragging about wanting PSN to ban people?
Nope, that's Baskinator. She needs to go
Burd and Baskinator needs to be deleted. Spitz and Twinbeard is the least offensive of them all.SPitz at least apologized publicly. The rest just hid after talking shit and/or accused someone of SA on ZERO factual evidence.
spitz still was a bad community manager, the f incident and hd1 discord shutdown are proof of that
he's certainly not the worst, but he's not good either
Jamie Marchi and other woke localizers should be next to go!
Arrowhead making up for their mistake, unless you’re a games urnalist you love to see it.
Don’t think the capes in yet, especially since I’ve been keeping a watch out for it.
Now that Discord mod falsely accusing Grummz of sexual assault also needs to go.
I disagree with this. Don't think now is the time.
@@sincerelynotme3522 Yes, you shouldn’t be able to falsely accuse someone with sexual assault and get away with it.
I thought it was "urine-alist"
@@Ashkihyena No, not that. The firing of the manager.
@@sincerelynotme3522Why not?
I think that the wrong community manager, Spitz is not the woke one or atleast not the worse one. He the one that told players to protest by giving bad reviews to Helldiver so they can pressure Sony. He probably fired because Aerrowhead didn't want to be sued by Sony because it would have been seen as the company conspiring against Sony to get out of contract obligation and had they kept him it would be saying they approve of what he did. Remember he even mention "Don't worry, Sony don't check discord", so it would look to Sony that people were conspiring behind their back.
This is misinformation, lack of context behind this video, he told people to review bomb the game. The community manager was fired because he told the community to do the review bomb because that's the only way Sony would listen.
No.. the refunds to non-psn countries by steam is what convinced sony.
Wrong.
Wrong, he had nothing to do with the review-bombings, people were doing BEFORE he suggested that.
Exactly when push comes to shove, you shove back. ✊
Had he not said anything, nothing would've changed. all their CMs were trashing their community and gamers still would have changed their reviews because its really the only way we can add feedback because we get attacked on steam forums. posts deleted. it's scummy.
At least Spitz was man enough to apologize right after, but Baskinator is another story.
He still defended baskinator though.
The reason he got fired, straight from his mouth is he realized his mistake and layer told people to refundv and leave a negative review in hopes it would give AH leverage with Sony. His firing has nothing to do with banings.
Baskinator needs to go even more
They didn't go far enough in cleaning out the rot. Other community managers deserved to be fired more than Spitz.
Spitz wasn't Woke - Baskinator is and she is still employed!
Spitz was definitely woke. Look at older posts openly attacking the community from them.
Spitz is not just woke, he even still defends Baskinator despite being fired.
she a mod
My review stays negative until after May 30th. IF on June 1, I can still play without a PSN account? I'll reverse the course. I ... don't .. trust ... Sony.
To be honest, spitz did take the side of the community, and he was fired for that. Not the antagonization of the community, not the unwarranted bannings, but help for the communtiy.
No, he did not. We were already reviewing bombing and refunding the game. He just hopped on the bandwagon to save face. Let us not forget that this isn't their first offense against the community.
@@Sly9192 they would've acted right in the beginning if they truly cared about gamers. none of the gamers had to be told that 120 seconds was enough time to change reviews to negative.
AFTER...he did it AFTER he had posted some dumb shit and then realised he had messed up. The stuff he did afterwards was scrambling to save his ass from the meat grinder.
We seriously going to pretend that Spitz was “on the community’s side” from the beginning?
Man…Super Earth might not be that much of a stretch after all if people are this easily fooled.
@@solitaryangel722 better yet it was AFTER the review brigade was too strong to stop. Like a cowardly snake he hopped on the wagon of the winning side.
Spitz right now:
I was a CM once, till I took an ArrowHead in the knee.
just no, he sold us out and then tried to back track.
The entire CM team needs to be canned.
Including all mod minions.
Agreed. People will put up with anything..
Twinbeard according to grummz is cool tho
never interacted with him myself he hardly posts and its sporadic official stuff at most
I wish Stellar Blade and Tsukihime would get the same treatment.
@@VolkColopatrion Nothing changes? Sony backtracked an entire update. That's not nothing.
That said we must still remain skeptical and on guard.
@@VolkColopatrion You want to change something? Vote with your wallet, spread the message, and get others to vote with their wallet. Get the angry mob to cancel their PS+ sub, get them to play their games on PC and stop supporting Sony. You'll see Sony change their tune real fast once it hits their bottom line. You think any of these corporations care about your voice? Lol, the only thing they care about is their bottom line. For the record, I cancelled my PS+ sub and will move all my future purchases to Steam.
Buy Tsukihime on switch instead if you own one.
There's a discord moderator who called Grummz an S Aer so they need to go too. Congratulations to Helldivers community I salute you
The whole company could theoretically be on the hook for that level of defamation, by the way. And they will be if they keep this up and defame the wrong person in the wrong jurisdiction.
he renamed himself Byrd or something now
dont even care to go there anymore its a den of tourists
@@summer7603 Also known to go by Purplegion.
Now to save that sexy girl game
There was worst CM out there, they picked a sacrificial lamb lol.
She's nit a CM
Actually, this guy was the one that ultimately said "voice your opinion with a dislike in reviews where it matters" which prompted ppl to review bomb it on steam. So that's why they fired him....
Bullshit. People were already doing that. He was mocking players. Fire them all
@@patrickhenry8425 Some people were but his boost encouraged a lot more to. Give the guy some respect for doing what he could to help out the community at the expense of his job. You know how we know he didn't get fired for his previous sarcastic replies to a few people? Because the CM's that did way worse are still there, he was the only one that lost his job and also the only one that tried to help the protest! Get a better perspective on life and attitude... perhaps your life will improve.
@@martinmccormick2166Wrong.
@@martinmccormick2166no.
Yeah, he told us to do so mockingly. Go back and read the post in its full context. I bet they didn’t really think it would change anything at the time.
One down, two mode to go. Make Twin-beard the head of CMs and fire everyone else, especially thier mods.
OOOHHH So Baskin is ALONE to try to topple down Pilestedt? BE SURE she will try to get rid of Twinbeard first. Let's count how long it takes for a botched harassment accusion against him.
Those 170+ countries regained access to the game already?
If not the flight must go on.
Purple sqiudgon aka bird needs to go as well..
Finally a community manager getting the boot
I just don't agree with this at all. Firing the CM nor the changing reviews back to positive.
The issue is, they fired the wrong dude XDD
@@sincerelynotme3522 Why?
@divebombexpert2619 Just proved we have the power, and you want to give it right back? Especially when people in other countries still have the game delisted? If you want to change it back, wait till after May 30th.
The worst are still there.
Lol dude, the one fired was not woke lol. Spitz helped Helldivers 2 community by asking to leave negative revievs so that Arrowhead could talk Sony out of linking accounts
No, he did not. We were already reviewing bombing and refunding the game. He just hopped on the bandwagon to save face. Let us not forget that this isn't their first offense against the community.
Someone’s head had to roll for defying Sony and Spitz made himself a target. He was the sacrificial lamb.
There are several CMs that still need the boot. In all of the reporting on this, there has only been mention of a single one that was doing his actual job.
APEs together! STRONG!
It's not a huge win, just a temporary one as Sony will most likely double down in the same crap for future games.
They dont need to double down the policy change is still there.
When it feels like a miracle when common sense prevails, then you know how messed up things are.😑
It's nice that people are finally fighting back against these kinds of people!
Spitz banned me for complimenting a trans womans male pattern baldness.
not sure what i did wrong
You know exactly what you did wrong. lol
shouldn't have complimented that's where you went wrong bro. can't compliment nobody nowadays
Spitz telling everyone to refund and downvote the game cost him his job but saved the game. He took one for the team in the end.
They don't care. This is just for views and pat themselves on the back cause they think they beaten an sjw. It seems the neutral RUclips gamers were the ones able to see what was really going on.
just no, he sold us out and then tried to back trap. It just caught up to him.
@@Sly9192apologies are a thing of the past. People will never forgive you no matter how much you say you’re sorry.
He said so mockingly. He didn’t actually believe it would make a difference, but once they did thats when they started backpedaling.
Why hire these people in the first place
have you even looked at employment records? they were planted there on purpose to push their agenda.
Being happy about Splitz getting fired is just wrong. He was the only person inside the company who changed his mind and stood up for the community.
he had to after being an idiot, cmon man...
Self-preservation. All it was. Realizing we were winning, so quickly putting on a mask to look good in our eyes.
Do not be so quick to forgive and forget. Should have learned this after GG1 did nothing and now GG2 is going on for the same reasons.
@@CommanderRedEXE self preservation would’ve been staying silent. He most likely knew he was going to get fired and still told us what to do. I’m not going to be pissed off at a guy for one bad comment
@@CommanderRedEXE Actually you should be quick to forgive and forget, esp in the situation as this. Spitz completely realized his mistake and owned it, he then proceeded to take the actions that ended up costing him his job. Actions should be accounted for over words in my opinion, and his actions were in the favor of this community!
@@martinmccormick2166 He made the call AFTER review bombing was already underway. He did nothing to help the cause. We were already doing it ourselves.
Know this truly makes it look like he did nothing but try to save face to us, realizing we were already going to win. And instead of going down with the Sony Ship he changed his views at the last second to get on a lifeboat. He'll get hired elsewhere and go back yo attacking the community.
There was a misprint. The want ad said "Community Mismanager Wanted" and "fosters engagement" said "fosters enragement".
About goddamn time!
Good. These "community managers" are all a bunch of clowns. Have you seen the community manager for Netherrealm Studios? Smh.
yeah its pretty bad everywhere. rise up and stand together. alone we are weak but together we are powerful.
REEEEEEEsetEra whinging is ALWAYS a pleasant added bonus.
Shouldve been Baskinator
First rule of being a community manager- don't go against your community.
The over-coddled first world brats need to go away from all positions of power.
The "big no no" was them explicitly telling people to "review bomb the game".
Hell, the decision might've come straight from Sony after they found out
going to be honest, there is another community moderator named Purple pigeon now Purplegion who deserves a ban more as they lied and accused Grumms of a crime without proof and then banned anyone who tried to even so much as say his name. this is immature behavior and childish power abuse.
Community damagers are so easily replaced. This should be done more often!
Imagine the gaul of developers listening to the people that actually pay for their products over people on the payroll that don't pay for squat. I'm shocked...
Unfortunately, HD2 still hasn't listened to their community and removed the malware known as nProtect from their game.
The fact that either one of these still have their jobs is another reason not to buy.
Me: sees title has BURNS the rot!
my mind: BURN IN HOLY FIRE!
Good bye Spitz, don't mess with PC gamers, without gamers there is no gaming, remember that the next time.
Now go find a real job.
"I used to be a community manager here but then I got an arrowhead to the knee"
If they want their game to succeed they have zero tolerance when community managers are causijg issues.
I won’t come back until Baskinator is gone.
Noone should have a position like "Community Manager" if they can not respect and serve the Community.
We all have the right to have our own opinion and beliefs. It only becomes a problem when a person thinks their beliefs are the only right ones and then use a position of power to shove their world view on everyone else.
Karen Baskin (Baskinator) is way worse than Spitz and hasn't been fired yet.
Baconator aint going anywhere unfortunately.
Insert Daddy Palpatine gif..."I love democracy..."
If I remember what I heard correctly, Baskinator did get demoted. I can't remember who said it, since I've been watching a lot of people in relation to the HD2 drama, but I do remember hearing that.
I thought community managers job was to foster the community NOT Destroy & Dismantle the community.
5:01 Nice how you omitted the fact that this community manager was actually later helping,telling people to make negative reviews to force Sony to change reverse the PSN account thing.
This is also why they got removed.
I didn't see this manager as a problem you make them into.
Mods like Burd are the problem considering what they are doing.
Studios need to remember that they can fire employees that damage their brand.
Just remember, this might be a victory for gamers, but it's just one in a sea of defeats. We aren't even close to winning the war. Remember, Stellar Blade is still censored.
It's definitely a huge win. I pray the community comes together more like this. Thanks to Arrowhead for standing on business and keeping all 10 down.
Now can we have something similar with Stellar Blade or are we going to let sony get away with false advertisement?
Spitz wasn't that bad.
He was fired for telling fans to refund and review bomb so that ArrowHead had more leverage when talking with Sony. Thats why he was fired.
He apologized previously for snapping at fans as he was unaware that PSN was unavailable in most countries. After that, he essentially sacrificed his job to help the community fix this.
Thats actually pretty awesome.
Edit: How was Spitz woke? There are several more aggregious CMs that need negative attention.
Simple, Yellow Flash labeled him that because he wouldn't get views on the topic without labeling him as such. The sad part is that it's working because most of his fanbase is made up of people who only see it through the lens of their side's political bias
@@chelsthegameruiner8669Wrong.
Just open ur eyes and look who they defend.
Katherine aka Baskinator needed a pink slip long before this.
i never understand why company hire community manager that hates the community.
wouldnt it be better to task a junior dev team member or fan club president for CM?
people that love the game and worked on the game instead of some wok outsider that have not so secret agenda
Oh well. I was hoping it was that woman of mass that was fired. Probably can’t fire her because she is a protected class.
I look at it this way: Any CM who engages in attacking the community they are governing should be given their walking papers. They are a poison to the company's image. This applies to *any* type of company. video games, hobby games, tech, sports. Fucking construction. If your PR person runs their mouth in a negative way , as a business you are going to want them gone.
Oh! Here I thought it was the lady again but they have TWO high rank community managers like this...
If the Managers think this way then the mods under them do as well, especially if they pick and set up their own staff.
So....
- gamers complain about a genuine problem that has nothing to do with race, gender, or politics.
- "journalists" complain about toxic gamers
- company reverses change
- "jounalists" complain about toxic gamers
- turns out the real toxic gamers were harasing and being toxic to the gamers who the "journalists" called toxic.
- company fires toxic people, effectively giving the "jounalists" 2 middle fingers in a row and standing by their community and fans.
I dont play the game, but i am a big fan of how the company does business.
Arrowhead would save a huge ton of money by firing the community managers with the piss poor performance and just have FAITH in their product.
Spitz did his wrongs, but Baskinator is the true cancer cell.
not enough, new major order: remove 3 automatons from arrowhead, 1/3 completed.
purple squidgeon a.k.a burd and baskinator need to go.
With them accusing Grummz false of sexual assault... I am sure they will be firing more.
I honestly figured this would happen. With their stance on ZERO politics, game only, no sjw, no Trump, etc.
Carol Baskinator needs to go. Feed her to the Tigers 🐯
I'm happy to see this. Helldivers 2 has been fun since it dropped. It's great to see clients being listened to
Spitz wasn't the woke CM. He made a mistake, realized he made a mistake, apologized for that mistake and then backed the community which is his job. He had the decency and wherewithal to do the right thing knowing he could lose his job for it.
Imagine a pointless job with description of taking s .. resulting from poor decisions and greed made by your employer or his publisher.
An avalanche starts with one snowflake. These are cleaning house so maybe this will set a trend.
Ugh it feels like Guantánamo Bay and they’re torturing the wrong prisoners
Finally. We need this game to survive
Baskinator is the bigger problem.
They fired the social media manager! 😱. Boycott!!!!!
Is it "burning out the rot" though ? Spitz was one of the less insane ones and was just being a corpo shill before being reprimanded. After (most likely) being chewed out, he told people to leave negative reviews and refund the game to add weight to Arrowheads discussions with Sony. Whereas Bask and that other mod/CM were either actively mocking the playerbase or publishing libelous statements on the "official" HD2 discord. Those are still in.
We completed one major order. More to follow through.
They all should go, but if they only fire Baskinator i'll take that as a win.
