The Gaymer Survey sought to find out about the gay gamer community. In the end, about 30% of participants in the survey are heterosexuals. It offers some depressing reading about the juvenile, or outright offensive nature of the language surrounding online play.
88% of respondents said they had heard the phrase "that's so gay" while 84% said they had heard 'gay' used in a derogatory fashion. Over 50% said they felt that games portray gay people in a stereotypical way, while 42% believe gays are under-represented in games. 15% said the industry creates a culture where gay employees "feel like they must stay in the closet". 52% believed that the gaming community is hostile to gay and lesbian gamers. Only 9% said they "never" encounter anti-gay sentiments from online gamers.
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

Who freakin cares? If you choose to be gay, then deal with it and quit crying. What about Christians who get made fun of, should we start whining?
If you eliminate the words "F@g"''Homo'' and "N!gger" the vocabulary of most online is reduced to rubble. It would turn into a "Your a Fuk'n noob, Shut up" festival. Ahh I love online gaming... =P
For the same reason that I think that my hetrosexual acquaintance is a dork for going off non-stop on his sexual conquests. Sexuality should be a part of who you are, not the sum. When it dominates it leaves you shallow.
Furthermore, no one like to be force-fed, no one likes to be dictated too. We also get tired of hearing how difficult someone's plight is -no matter how justified. It's just human nature.
Does this make me a hater? I hope not.
PS. For those 'gay-mers' looking for a game that might be up your alley, I 'd suggest Enchanted Arms.
It is a sensitive topic. And one gets different reactions depending on who you ask and how the person was raise. I think it goes down to respecting others and letting them deside how they want to live their life. I don't aprove homosexuality but do I have to? I'm not the one to deside what life style or tendencies people have. Ofcourse as long as people respect me as much as I respect others. A while back some gay guy was trying to hit on me (where I am from you don't do that and the way I was raise and believe that's not natural) I respecfully ask the person to leave me alone and explained that I am not gay. The guy told me, "how do you know you are not gay if you never tried a man" well... I beat the $h!t out of him. Not because he was gay, but because he was gay against "me". Want to be gay, be gay with your gay fellows. One person wants to fk chickens, cows, mosquitos, other man, old laddy, put cigarets in your @$$, hump a dog, drink piss or any non-natural(based on my believes) thing you can do so freely as long as it does not affect me or someone I care (i.e. you fk my dog I kill you).
"You don't choose to be gay" everything is a choice. I'm not judging you and you can do wherever you want and you have the right to; no one can take that from you. but the world "choose" indicates you have a choice. i.e. If I kill someone it was a choice, if I like to sleep with animals(dogs, cows, chickens, etc) it is a choice, if I choose to get married (even between a man an woman) it is a choice. There is a big difference between wanting or feeling like you want to and doing it. "You don't choose to be [insert action]" can be applied to almost anything and the funny part about it; is that in their own eyes they don't think they had a choice or think is wrong:
"You don't choose to be a killer"
"You don't choose to be a rapist"
"You don't choose to be a bestialist"
"You don't choose to be a petifile"
can't all these be also linked to chemial inbalances or be seens as normal depending on what people believe.
bottom line, I think people need to respect people and let them do what they want as long as people's rights aren't violated or laws are broken. Gay people also have to understand that others DO NOT HAVE TO ACCEPT THEM those everyone has to respect their right to choose.
I thk it's a good choice not to spread gay pride, it teaches a wrong lesson to youngsters wouldn't you say, after all it's not normall so why should it be promoted hahahahahahahahha.
