I have a hard time thinking this can be blamed on one singular person. If THQ wants forgiveness I'm expecting more than just their PR Manager taking the blame and saying sorry.
I was expecting it to come from Devolver Digital, and turn into this crazy satire. It wasn't. What a shame.
Dude, you don't get off easy like that. Plus he already did it and responded in disgusting ways. This guy must think any PR must be good PR bullshit.
I mean, its takes 30 seconds to go to Duckduckgo, type in "8chan", go to first link, load page, go to V and do some research. Its blindingly obivious in the first minute what kind of place 8chan is.
Shenanigans apology.

I doubt it's his doing alone. He will take the blame as he is responsible for PR, and this is BADDDDDD PR.
"oopsie woopsie we tripped and fell into the place known for child porn and we didn't know what we were getting into (please don't look at how we responded to anything.
btw shoutout to mark"

Are you referring to the moderator of a different website which was owned by a different guy and who shares none of its staff with this website?
well the issue here is that 8chan got removed from google, so how could they have known how bad it was
/s
Well, he certainly failed at not making it look forced.
its not like they were hiding this. this is the funniest timeline
FUCK OFF WITH THAT BULLSHIT.
Not even your mom would believe such a pathetic excuse.
He sounds like one of those m'lady dudes in a creepy text message subreddit
8ch isn't the kind of site you post on without going out of your way to find it. No way I buy that he didn't know what he was doing.
I have no idea what that poster is talking about...hence why I am asking.
I don't think this guy said he is OK with pedo shit. He just said he doesn't have a problem with the AMA being hosted on 8chan because AMAs are hosted on reddit without problems and they have some shitty subreddits. Lets take a deep breath stop trying to take people down in this thread. No doubt 8chan is shit but stop trying to ruin people. He never said one thing about supporting pedos.
If we choose to believe this, then THQ Nordic still needs to react. Like, you don't keep someone with such bad judgement around.
This is like those shitty GOG / CDPR tweets times a thousand.
He said he personally greenlit it. Why did he say 'I' instead of 'we'
You think every employee of thq is behind this?
Warhorse acquisition and still keeping Vavra should've told people enough about THQ Nordic's core values.
Yeah I responded to some nasty stuff, doubled down, liked some edgelords tweet and already admitted that we have someone (hi Mark) to take care of this nasty shit.... BUT I DIDN'T KNOW!!!!11

There's no way only one guy signed off on this. This isn't Gabe Newell doing a Reddit AMA, and even with that I bet a few people were involved.
"Hello friends, to make up for the whoopsie we did we will host another exclusive AMA on Stormfront"
Yeah, sure. Being connected to pedophilia and nazism sure is great PR.
I don't believe. They knew what they were doing and now they're trying to damage control.
Gotta be honest. I googled 8chan, but didn't find the site. I seems their URL is not on google.
Ok, this thread has been one "what the fuck" after another, I can't keep up with this!
Just wow... wonder if this will have consequences regardless.
This is so fucking funny the more I think about it.
How did he register? Does he have a SFW registration page that doesn't show wtf this site is about? Does he live under a rock?
THQ is showing their 90's, and it stinks.
