The dude was apparently a ass. But it is sort of sad to see that with that. Both creators of the IP will not have anything to do with anymore.

He gets painted in a very awful light and he might not be a perfect person but he really got the sh*t end of the stick here. He struggles in social situations because of his autism.

I wrote my comment below without even knowing he was autistic. Yep it all makes sense. Ugh and it makes me feel worse for him.

I think Ziamont is just socially awkward and I think he probably doesn't know where to draw the line when interacting with pretty girls. I could see how the girl he interacted with was offended (what do your parents think about you being a THOT?). Mike's a smart dude, but that's obviously offensive. I think he thought he was being flirty. Smart folks sometimes lack social skills. Based on this one specific incident it's really hard to say this was anything other than an uncomfortable conversation where Mike thought he was being flirty and the girl thought he was being a creep.

Now if you're going to talk about sex (like girl on girl BDSM) with a male (any hetero-male especially a stranger) the understanding has to be on your mind that you're broaching a very personal subject. So when Mike got too personal in response how mad can she really get? Then for her to blast this all over Twitter embarrassing him and essentially ruining his reputation, is pretty disgusting. The punishment ought to fit the crime I'd say. Other male devs are going to see this as a cautionary tale. He would be better off not responding at all to any member of the opposite sex who opens the conversation about a deeply personal subject like sex then pearl clutches by a deeply personal question in response. The right thing to do would be to privately address the subject with Ziamont right then and there. "I'm sorry but I find your questions deeply offensive. I don't like where this conversation is going at all." Is that so hard? Must his life and profession be destroyed over this awkward interaction? I find what she did vindictive and incredibly over the top mean spirited.

With that out of the way, we have some proof that he had this awkward conversation and we have some other lady saying he's made folks uncomfortable. What I don't like is how thin on proof this all is. Anyway that's my two cents. I think these ladies are looking for attention. I think Ziamont is probably unintentionally an ass. That shouldn't be a crime punishable by death or character assassination, but I guess it's 2020.

To hetero-male devs when a pretty girl you've never met starts talking about sex the very first second you meet her, shut it down. Don't respond. It's a trap. If you're leading a company that makes millions of dollars you have everything to lose and she has everything to gain.

It's ok, I try not to make fun of the mentally retarded. It's obvious you're a lazy, disgusting waste of life. LOLOLOL, ROFLCOPTER! So Sad! You could go on weight watchers or just stop drinking Soda. You don't have to be a fat ass your whole life.

You know I should go easy on you, it's probably really hard working the corner to score some crack for your whore mom. I'm sure you can't even walk straight once they finish with you.

How does it make you feel that I'm using you for entertainment? I guess you're used to being used. LOLOL.
Remember little Simp, when you hear funny sounds coming from behind the door, it just means momma is working. Roflcopter! LOLOLOLOL.

Knowing how angry this makes you brings me great joy. Keeping going!
