Some positive rant for a change I went to a Burger King for the first time in my life today and i was pleasantly surprised The burger i ordered actually looked like the picture of it and it tasted great (double whopper) And after the burger, some deadpool action, after that, some cold beer, HDN and netflix so pretty good day over all plus i got a kick ass hair cut today honestly, i look like a young Elvis

....sexy

Edit: apparently Wentworth Miller, Amaury Nolasco and Robert Knepper are shooting a short movie this weekend, called Great Escape, about 16 miles from my house COOL

Well, this has to be the best day of the year so far for me. Black Label #1 shipped and then found out that the movie "The Zero Boys" is finally getting released on blu ray by Arrow video (been searching for 4-5 years for this movie. VHS player broke around 9 years ago, so can't watch it.). Pre-order is on Amazon for Zero Boys, for those interested.

Now to wait and see if my manager calls to say that my shift is cancelled for the night (group of people quit over the weekend and not enough stuff for my team to work on).

Gone Home Dev: Look past "the best person for the job"

http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articl...dev-dont-look-for-the-best-person-for-the-job

Well, we knew this day was coming.The day when the best person for the job doesn't get hired because of gender politics.

So the industry should hire more inexperienced women and hope they can grow into their role instead of hiring experienced men because, Vagina?These dudes are crazy .Thank god he isn't in charge of anything major.These SJW's really should off themselves.

So how are things ever goingbto change if anyone is never given a chance . Vigina OR NOT .

SO hire a mid 30's stuck in the mud male same formula regurgitating itself over and over with no new ideas or life .

Or take a risk and appoint a new set of eyes that possibly brings a breath of fresh air to a chovernistic mysogonistic industry .

We all start a job as a noob sometimes thinking what have we done ? .

2 choices Quit OR step up regardless of colour , gender sexuality .

Women frighten men end of as most guys see us as being weak . When infact we are the stronger gender as we refuse to buckle under the constraints men place on us .

As a female gamer sometimes they are so repetitive . Same thing over and over . Allong comes The Last Of Us where the females ARE JUST AS KICK ASS AND WELL DEVELOPED AS ANY MALE Charicture .

You are trying to make a point but none of what you said really helps your argument.

Adding women to an industry doesn't mean anything will change.Never has a never will.All that changes is men feel uncomfortable working, talking and having any ideas that they think will make women uncomfortable at work.If anything, it stunts growth and cohesion among a team.

so all males who are hired in their 30's all have the same ideas about everything? I never knew .I guess all the diversity in games made by 30 something males isn't evidence enough to show, unlike women , men have a mind of their own.There is no collective hive mind.

The gaming industry has never been misogynistic or sexist towards women in the slightest way.if that were the case how did Jade Raymond make assassin creed or Kiki Wolfkill and Bonnie Ross run Halo?let's not forget one of the best programmers who worked at both 343 and Naughty dog is a woman.There is also plenty of great women indie studios.There has never been a wall or hate for women in gaming.If anything we have been trying to get women in gaming for 30 years now.

I don't see how women could frighten men ?Or how you can say that women are the stronger gender with a straight face.Physically or mentally.When history and science prove both claims wrong.But we are not talking about which gender is better now are we?

as far as all of us starting as noobs go, that isn't the case in the tech industry as most people are self taught or college educated and have work to present before they are hired.No man or woman walks up to Microsoft or Apple and say "i want to work here with no experience or projects under my belt hire me.Take a risk!" .Also,gender or skin tone are never a factor in the hiring process as they claim.the tech industry has just never attracted blacks and females as much as it did for white, Asian and Indian males.

The last thing with women, is they are so worried about a female pixel representation of them being "Kick Ass" that they forget that they should be protesting for "real" instead.women need to be presented as they are in real life as the men are sometimes represented.hell, men are sexulaized in movies and videogames just as much as women are.

When do we see a a full fruntal male shot on screen Watchmen was the last I remember. Most movies have a highly sexuilised female as a focal point to get male bums on seats .

Seems to me the only thing stunted and no cohesion in a team is failing to see that a different opinion and point of view could expand the workforce making it stronger .

You seriously want to try juggling my work , husbands work, kids , ageing widdowed perant School run Mentration and bras . Males get a dose of man flu and the world comes to an end .

Strighth comes in many forms sweetheart it's how you deal with the downs as well as the ups .

Quite frankly you lost my respect AND intrest in the first statement of your reply in bold above flower .

so men are never sexualiazed?

ETC.Men get it too, but for us its considered OK.

And are you saying doing you duty as a mom and wife are what make you strong?Sounds like something you should be doing anyway.And then bringing in you cycle as a struggle.

.as if men can control nature or the female form.

I was never trying to earn your respect.Before you posted i had no idea you were alive.i just like to discuss current events with whomever are up for a healthy debate or rant.It is the Rant/Blurb thread.
