I just don't know how THQ can save this. There's no way. Might as well just shut the company down.

How hard is it to read the OP? Genuinely asking.
Not difficult.
Oh really? Literally no clue but you looked through the posts here?

Well now you know buddy. Hopefully you know why this might result in DAH never being released now. Ever.
nope. Saw a screenshot of their e3 lineup on discord and then saw a thread here. Chill lol
Genuinely didn't know.
Knew 4chan was a shithole but apparently this place is twice as bad.

You're right, it isn't super popular. I didn't know until this thread 8chan was a seperate thing from 4chan. Which is why I predicted stupidity over malice.

Any amount of super basic research (as in Wikipedia and first page of Google results) will tell you all about 8chan's "controversies" regarding CP and GG support.

The "stupidity" is the kind of galaxy-breaking shit that gets people terminated out of entire industries.

I think we need a warning telling people that if they enter ***** and see child exploitation they're legally obligated to report it, otherwise they're at risk of being arrested.

Even 4chan would have been 100 times better choice.
This is quite honestly the most baffled I've been in some time.

Today I learned that 8chan was still a thing. I had completely forgotten about it and haven't seen it mentioned in years even though I use 4chan daily.

But the specifically pointed out before the backlash came in that they asked the site to clean certain things up.


Obviously the only thing worth cleaning up considering the screen grabs we are getting now has to be the stuff that would get THQ employees thrown in jail.

They aren't stupid out of ignorance. They are stupid out of stubbornness.

Whoever set this up knew what they were getting into and should honestly be fired. It's rare that I suggest going to such lengths because I think peoples' livelihoods shouldn't be trifled over but this is legitimizing pedophilia, racism, homophobia, and a whole host of other absolutely disgusting behavior. Even a quick glance at the website would have revealed that, and in the very unlikely case that whoever set this up didn't know what they were doing, they honestly shouldn't be running THQ Nordic's Public Relations department. This gives the company a very bad name and does serious damage to the developers who are working on games that have absolutely nothing to do with the filth found on 8chan.

I really, really hope they issue an unambiguous and sincere apology for their actions and make significant changes to their social media management going forward. Part of me likes to think that the whole company shouldn't be punished for the actions of a small percentage of their employees' actions, but this is beyond disgusting and absolutely cannot be tolerated.

What an absolute gaf from THQ Nordic, what was going through the mind of their PR Manager when they signed off on this? They need to course correct yesterday.

DDG pulls its searches from multiple sources - including Yahoo and Yandex, IIRC.

Yeah, I was getting it mixed up with Startpage.com which is strictly Google results minus the tracking. I switched to DDG when I went back to Firefox from Chrome last month or so.

But the fact that even Google decided to block the whole website from its search should tell THQ enough as it is. Before all the receipts on child porn and everything else.

Holy shit.

I have no idea how you even phrase your shallow corporate apology for a fuckup on this scale.
