Man it's gonna snow so badly this afternoon most of the departments on campus have shut down. Classes cancelled after 12:30 means I can go home at around noon with a clean conscience right? On the other hand it hasn't started snowing yet so there's no real safety problem.

I'm a "student" but not someone attending classes. Supervisor also said he's not coming to campus today.

yeah it kind of was, on one hand his original tweet didnt even @ her so she had to just be randomly searching her own name which is kind of pathetic but on the other he decided to do some weird roundabout thing where he wanted to apologize and pretend he didnt just make fun of her with a raunchy joke but also play the highground like shes a war criminal... just fucking weird

just do one or the other, double down and apologize saying it was a joke and not meant for her to see or ante up without being earnest and just say something to the tune of "ive seen what u and ur family do with pizza behind closed doors, freakazoid"

are you a "local"? if not, and everyone else is leaving, they probably know what's coming and you would be best to follow their lead.

yeah you should probably get off of campus (idk where ur at or how bad snow gets) because if people dont come to work then all the food places shut down and u need food. (i assume)

Review bombing is still a problem in the year of our lord 2018. So, yes, I don’t like the solution because it didn’t solve the problem. Users reviews in reality, kinda garbage.

And developers would like to be able to control the forums to keep racism out of there. Like For Honor, who had this really cool white supremacy group that got all up in the steam forums and the developers had a real tough time banning them.

I'm not this big consumer rights guy who values user reviews or forums where people buying the game can air their grievances right next to the store page.

I don't understand how you can think user reviews are garbage. when you buy stuff on amazon, do you not look at product ratings and reviews? Are you literally against user reviews because review bombing is possible? I don't see any practicable way of outright preventing viewbombing. Steam introduced a feature allowing you to see the game's review history, therefore making it obvious to see where reviewbombing has happened. It's then up to the diligent buyer to look further into why the game is being bombed. I honestly expected you to be a consumer rights guy. Why are you against people being able to air their grievances against a product that they have bought?

Also, I was under the impression that developers were in charge of moderating their game hub's forums, and had the tools they needed to (from deleting posts to banning users)
https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/community_moderation

No, I don't look at product reviews on Amazon. A lot of the time they are bullshit or fake and have been for a while. The product reviews on Amazon went down the drain once they opened themselves to foreign vendors. They don't have the main power to moderate them.

https://www.gimletmedia.com/reply-all/124

I am all about consumers rights. I think steam should have a robust return policy manned by humans that process each return within 48 hours or so. But I am also about the rights of the people selling the games. And I don’t think user reviews are a “right”. If people want to return a game they don’t like and send an email/message, that is great. But I don’t believe they should be part of the store’s page. I worked retail, the customers mostly sucked and were entitled assholes. I don't like empowering them beyond giving them the right to have their money returned to them.

Steam user reviews are great, them being reviewbombed occasionally is such a minor problem compared to how useful a tool it is. Especially since anyone with a brain can see if a review bomb happened.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

For anyone curious: I did go home early because the roads wouldn't have gotten cleared up in a reasonable amount of time. If I left at my usual time of ~4:30 I would've actually had to deal with like 15cm of uncleared snow, assuming the buses would even run.

If people like that, that is fine. Again, I don't think they are evil and they never sway my decision on what store to use. But I'm happy to see developers have options beyond steam to market their game on. It seems weird, but the majority of fortnight players do not have Steam installed. So there is also an growing age divide when it comes to who uses what store. Which is also good for everyone.

I hear freezing rain bouncing against the glass windows of my office so I think it's time for me to start leaving soon once I get this last thing over. Two people already left and there was only a skeleton crew including me in today anyways.

One of my Toronto friends didn't even go to work today, and the other had their classes cancelled hahaha. Guess it must be really bad. I just thought Queen's was getting SOFT honestly.

as a consumer right now there's no tangible benefit for me to use the epic store, it's lacking on features compared to steam, and i'd have to build up my friends list again
the only draw of the epic store is the exclusives (fortnite and the ones they've purchased)

right now if a game is available for me to buy on both platforms 9 times out of 10 i'm going to choose steam

I heard that the epic store is taking a 16% cut from sales as opposed to steams 30% so I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of quality AAA's and Indies start appearing as epic exclusives

Maybe, but you'd have to factor in the smaller userbase. I wouldn't know if it's as simple as which store takes a smaller cut.

Actually maybe not. If Fortnite is on the store I suspect they could get a lot of users. Too lazy to look up populations though.

Schools are shutdown here too. It's what we get for making fun of the east coast

If it wasn't for fortnite being installed on millions of comps I doubt they would have launched their own storefront
