Xbox Spain Community Manager harassed off Twitter for sharing a PS4 game on her personal account

[KoolAid]

They mention dumb ass stuff like "the enemy at home", "she doesn't represent Xbox", "the only reason she buys a multiplatform game on PS4 is to cause drama"...

Reminder that earlier this year, Mike Ybarra streamed GOW on Mixer and people went at him in a similar way, but he had this to answer:
Moderation - This tweet is separate from the above incident


Gamers continue to be trash.

........like....really?

you'd think this would be a good thing, building bridges and encouraging mutual respect and communication between platforms

 

[Shamdeo]

Defending the honor of BRANDS

 

[Soriku]

The HEATHEN

 

[Silky]

Don't see the big deal, just some gamers rising up tbh

Disgusting

I always kind of want to meet one of these sorts of people and talk to them in person. I just can't fathom caring about console wars that much.

 

[Jaypah]

Yeah, it's gross. Phil congratulated the God of War team on their GOTY award and not only PlayStation fans (which I sadly expect) but, even more ridiculous, Xbox fans were giving him shit. Shit is sad bruh.

 

[xxracerxx]

Fucking disgusting.

These are hardcore fanboy types. There is no bridging with these type of people.

 

[Theorry]

That name in Ybarra his tweet looks familiar. :P

 

[Deleted member 1003]

Absolutely awful people to harass someone for playing a damn videogame.

 

[chrisypoo]

Fanboys of all stripes continue to be the lowest form of human.

 

[Deleted member 274]

Fucking toxic motherfuckers, fanatism is a cancer

 

[Damn Silly]

fuckin' hell fanboys are dumb.

 

[Maquiladora]

Fans of giant corporations are so weird....

#why

 

[TuMekeNZ]

Gamers...

 

[Malek]

These people are savages, why would you ever treat other human like that? just because they prefer a different system than you? smh

Still rooting for brands as if they're sports teams I see.

I thought the exact same thing, but hope it's not who I think it is LOL.

On topic: some people take brand loyalty way too far. Unfortunately it goes even beyond gaming.

 

[--R]

The Spanish Xbox community sucks big time. Every time I've interacted with them it has been awful.

 

[uncleniccius]

It is this kind of stuff that makes it less surprising that you see such tribalism in politics.

If people act like this over video games you can only imagine how they act over bigger stuff.

 

[Deleted member 9317]

A reminder that a lot for these people with similar views post here/GAF. A lot of familiar names pop up on twitter posts.

Don't blame the Spanish gamers, a lot of others share the same sentiment.

Us gamers huh?

 

[Godard]

Companies wish good luck in other companies game launches and show healthy competition.
Meeeeeanwhile the fans live a cold war that nobody asked

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Oh wow

 

[GarthLordOfTheSith]

I don't understand how people can be so shitty and rabid over a FUCKING PIECE OF PLASTIC. Like damn

 

[Trrzs]

Disgusting. I really don't understand their fanatism with how great is to enjoy games no matter the platform.

 

[elzeus]

Fans are taking things too far... like those brand ambassador iPhone/Android "scandals". Phil himself has talked about playing games on other platforms.

 

[Deleted member 11008]

I know a guy who writes for Xbox Spain and he share the stuff he play in his PS4 and Switch lmao

But he's a guy, so he isn't going to receive a lot of hate as this woman.

 

[Velezcora]

We are the worst community.

Click to shrink...

No. There is no community. Let's stop pretending that all gamers are united when the only thing that ties us together is that we play video games. Which are vastly different.
There is no book reader community.
There is no movie community.
There are multiple communities who simply share ties.
It bugs me when people on ERA post "fuck gamers" and similar posts when some guy who plays video games does something dumb.
He ain't representative of all people who play video games.

To me a gamer is just a convenient way to refer to a video game player. It's not an identity. There is no community. Fuck the assholes.

 

[Cess007]

Fucking fanboys

 

[Kilgore]

In the two tweets of the screenshots one says that he will stop to follow the Xbox account, and the other says that he will stop following the personal account of the CM. You can say that attitude is stupid, but considering that harassment... I don't know.

 

[mescalineeyes]

People doing unpaid shilling for a piece of plastic is some late stage capitalism level shit.

 

[Deleted member 43070]

HOW DARE SHE PROMOTE THE ENEMY! FIRE HER!!!!!!!!! RUIN HER!!!!!!!

Now on a serious note WTF is wrong with people? This the other side is the enemy mentality has to stop. They aren't your family or friends. They're freaking videogame consoles. Jesus.

 

[elenarie]

Garbage morons, as usual.

 

[Godard]

*Duplicate message*

 

[Bishop89]

Die hard fanboys are cancer

 

[Dukie85]

I knew gamers were fickle, but godDAMN, really? I'll never understand fanboy philosophy. It eludes me and I guess I'll never get it... Let people play what the fuck they want, when they want, on what the fuck they wanna play it on... For fuck's sake, man... Gotta grow up sometime, people :/

 

[MrCibb]

Absolutely ridiculous and achieves nothing except makes you look like an idiot.

Stop having self-guilt and hate. These guys are fanboys.

 

[Cess007]

Jesus, just noticed the second tweet is for another Xbox community. I hope they're forced to apologize

Edit. Checked their tweet, yeah, I don't think they will apologize

 

[Mórríoghain]

muh BRAND

 

[Jessie]

Some people have multiple consoles. It's crazy how fanboys don't realize this.

But yeah I'm totally baffled by this mentality. It shouldn't get further than playground fights at primary school.

All of the experiences with the Xbox community from spanish are the worst and i don't understand the pattern why such loyalty to that brand specially over here where is more of a Sony and Nintendo country.
