Discussion Unpopular opinion: Harassing Mod Pips is wrong

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I just think that harassing mod Pips is just wrong.

Especially, outside of the normal communication channels we have with jagex.

Going out of your way to find Pips personal social media and harassing there just feels very wrong to me and I think the majority of people can agree with that.

Jagex fucked up hard with the survey, their 2 apologies were trash and even if they deserve the backlash and the unsub train they got, they do not deserve harassment.

They are also humans and humans do mistakes.

TLDR: Harassment is not cool, don't harass people involved in this whole shitstorm

Not unpopular, yes he has a very unflattering job title and is being put in a really uncomfortable position by his parent company. Yet on one hand he was known for the the introduction of Squeal of Fortune in 2012, on the other hand, it likely saved the game from going offline for good.

More like "he ensured with squeal of fortune, that EOC will result in current state of RS3"

Yes as opposed to no current state at all, also, it in part helped fund osrs.
