Default @lufkin

Is it just me, or does this comment by lufkin seem incredibly sexist and condescending toward women?

"Rants are for women when they can't find their prized shoes.

Closed."


P.S. Here are the forum rules. Seems as though his comment fits under "Flaming"

"Don't

This is a list of things you should not do on our bulletin board. If you do any of this, you might find your access to the bulletin board closed, possibly permanently.

* Flame. Flaming is verbally attacking people or groups of people - e.g. a profession, an organization, a company. Name-calling and defamatory comments are typical examples of flaming."
 

 

 

Cant find the original post yet. But if it is true he posted that statement he will be fired right?

 

Edit: found it!

I wouldn't bet on that one happening they'll sweep it under the rug as they seem to do anything else that bothers their players

If a mod says it then in practice that is Funcoms official opinion too. First GMs who cyber with their customers, then one who is degrading to women... hmmm maybe time to throw away a mail to that newspaper in norway...

Cynical? Me? Never.

He's already had plenty of posts that should have seen him dismissed. Failcom obviously loves people reinforcing how they treat customers.

Verbal Assassin

They probably won't do anything, because that would mean they would have to admit they were wrong when they made him a mod. We know, Funcom  never admits to being wrong.

(Thanks for removing the duplicate thread, wasn't my intention!)

On topic:

He's by far the most disruptive and non apologetic volunteer of the bunch. Many people including myself have reported Lufkin not for his moderation, but for the behavior that would get any other Age of Conan forum go-er an infraction or banned.

In many cases, his involvement or statements in a thread will derail it; to which he'll unload several pointed barbs at the community members; before closing out the topic, usually leaving the original question unanswered.  Should the OP try to recreate their thread to have it addressed (the original inquiry or request for assistance and not the moderation); that thread typically is locked with a nice infraction thrown in for good measure.

I wouldn't believe if I hadn't seen it myself on several occassions.

I'm no funcom fan, but who really cares? It was a joke in bad taste, get over it. You guys gotta stop freaking out about every little thing with this game, there is enough to freak out about with the big things.

Tried: LotR, CoH, AoC, WAR, Jumpgate Classic
Played: SWG, Guild Wars, WoW
Playing: Eve Online, Counter-strike
Loved: Star Wars Galaxies
Waiting for: Jumpgate Evolution, Earthrise, Fallen Earth, anything sandbox.
