A former employee shitting on their employer during a scandal to draw media attention has been the oldest trick in the book. If more stories come forward or others corroborate the individual claims, it's worth notice. Until then, all I see is someone who took a high pressure job, couldn't hack it, and now they're trying to cash in on the negative experience for media attention.

    One party versions are always .... tricky. If this was the case then people that support her need to step up and talk. It is hard to belive a company with such ethics also had good enough enviroment for a colleague to transition and publicly anounce it to the world. Something is off...

    Exactly. Something doesn't smell right. If she wants to corroborate her story, she can start by showing her ER report for the supposed incident where she self-harmed to get out of work. That would be an easy paper trail to share and since she's already disclosed that information, she wouldn't be giving anything else up.

    Words themselves have no value in these instances.

    Exactly this ^

    Until there's actual evidence put forward (and not just her word), I'll happily defer pulling out the guillotine and grabbing my pitch fork.

    I get the community as a whole is rightfully shitty with how LMG has handled themselves over the last week, but I'm certainly not taking her accusations alone at face value, regardless of how abhorrent they are

    Absolutely, the criticism from gamers Nexus was fair and earned by LMG, but these allegations are not only completely separate from the issue with quality, they're completely unsubstantiated. Should she start corroborating her story with things like the ER report from her reported incident of self-harm, or other employees confirm her story and are willing to state that they actually witness these accusations, that would be another story.
