Please GOG, bring back Linko already!

I am very disappointed in you giving in to these leftist totalitarians whose main occupation is being outraged and who literally destroy livelyhoods and subsequently lives. I am thinking about taking my business elsewhere. A handful of good games is not worth the loss of principles but apparently a handful of sold games is worth the loss to you.

You fail to understand that on the internet, with such massive reach and so many idiots concentrated, that no matter how grey you make your post, someone will be offended no matter what. Have you not seen pet / cute animal videos? There will always be some kind of deranged idiot saying how what's being done is animal cruelty. Similarly, on twitter, there will be political no-lifes who only see stuff through their ideology and will get offended at everything.

If companies or anyone with a social media presence started taking what you said seriously, ie ''preserving their image'' to the extent of random dismissal of employees, they'll end up in a situation where they'd rather not post at all because someone can be offended and they don't have time or money to plug a pacifier into someone's mouth every time they make a tweet.

What if the Westboro Baptist Church is offended? What then? Well obviously they don't matter. Then who does matter? All of this is just an excuse to fire people willy-nilly and it contributes to how lacking job security is in the industry.

It came to my attention that ever offended SJW has stared joining CD PROJEKT ranks to destroy everything from inside. I sincerly hope that you apathetic individuals can keep alive your own projects without bringing the infestation with you wherever you go. You are the pests of the video game industry deep down I hope they ban you from what earns your salary so our issues can end.

First of all, bring back Linko and fire the one that silently got rid of him - he'e the one lowering the price of stock value of this company and scaring loyal audience. Second of all if you find us stupid and you prefere to shadow ban say it in open so our support may cease permanently.I have some bad experiences with your moderators as well if more of us start coming out you have earned yourselves quite a scandal...

If you are going to fire every community manager because someone somewhere is determined to be offended as much as possible then you can just cancel the position altogether.

Linko90 was one of my fave, cool and most active blues on these forums, I hope he's only on temporary leave.

He would get a new label or something instead of profile disappearing if it was only temporary, It mwans his profile was permanently removed from GOG account repository - at least on the forum (you can still use GOG cli4nt when you request your forum account to be deleted.)

Yeah, you're probably right, it's just wishful thinking on my part

PSA!

Keep this thread alive, tell more people that SJW has started invasion to kill this developer so we can get official stance on the issue. Ty.

Ok, lets have a look. To make it clear, I'm fairly new to GOG.com, so I can't compare this community manager to a previous one. However, this topic bothers me a lot. The reason is that I actually started to love GOG, their philosophy etc. and want all the best for this company - prospery, loyal community and so on. Moreover, I look up to such companies and consider them as a great place to work at, so I'm really concerned about this issue.

Firing community manager over nothing doesn't feel right. Don't get me wrong, I DO NOT APPRECIATE offending people. However, using that hashtag was not offending, probably he didn't even know about its origin. I didn't know and it was the first time I've ever heard about it. What we have as a result - a group of people got offended and force the company to fire it's empoyee (if it's actually true, of course), while the significant part of the actual community is disappointed due to this desition. In fact, it appears that opinion of the few overwhelms opinion of many and it's definitely wrong. All I ask you, GOG, is to pay attention to what the real commutinty say, because we are the real community, not that fake one on tweeter!

And sorry if it offends somebody, but I must say it:
