It's not restricting freedom of speech to silence the "joking" male adolescents telling female gamers to get back into the kitchen. In fact, allowing those undesirables to bully female gamers to the point where they don't feel comfortable with leaving comments has a far greater impact on people feeling like they have the freedom to speak."
EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space
Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

I'm not leaving much comment, to avoid hurting people's feelings.
I feel like even if they did take action it still wouldn't make much of a difference.people in the gaming industry nowadays are far to arrogant stubborn and uncivil to really change their act.
the ps4 vs xbox one is a good way of getting a view of what go's on in the gaming community. i dont see why we all just cant get along and enjoy what were here for the games.
While I know I will get a ton of disagrees, this crusade always ends in the ironic twist of the righteous being the new bullies. The simple fact is, the second you start to isolate / call out / be little or in any way insult the current "bullies", you're doing nothing more than bullying them in the guise of being righteous. Like I would love to see that stuff go away and I do stand up to some of it, but once you start to organize people to clean up the community you end up with awful things.
I think the system here at N4G is pretty bad. It's shocking to see what gets marked as "trolling" for instance. A statement like "I'm going with Xbox One. It has more exclusives" could be disagreeable or even wrong, but then say THAT. It's not necessarily trolling just because you're frustrated enough to get upset.
Some intelligent, tolerant moderators with total control of that kind of thing would have been better. Or a smarter, nicer ommunity, but that is a far-fetched wish. Mind, many of you are nice, it's just that the people who aren't make a lot of themselves.
Btw, we can't moderate all the kitchen jokes. There goes half my material.
