Strap on your seat belts and hold your mommas close. We're in for a doozy.

At least you can say "the day is darkest before the dawn".....hopefully.
This is actually much more common than you guys may think. Imagine the number of messages Shaun gets everyday, and the number of agressive messages, threating him and his family (over a videogame, lol). I understand his reasons.

This happens all the time, not just in a fanbase, but everywhere, in and out of the internet. The world is full of people that think their wishes are demands and act like they're some king of bullshitness

The real danger is that some of these people actually DO what they say they will do. Horrible

I hope he gets back soon after a while.

Isn't a threat considered terrorism there in the USA? I know as a fan of the NBA that some players have been charged with "terrorism" when they threatened their girlfriends (the case I'm thinking right now apparently the guy didn't threat her and she made up the story, but I was surprised he was charged for terrorism and then I read it was just that).

If that counts as terrorism the guy could have a hard time. No one should go as far as twitting stuff like that even if he didn't mean it. Shaun was one of the nicest guys on twitter.

A lot of devs/even non devs get such bad things on going. There is an ugly side to every fanbase. I wouldn't love it to read tweets about my wife/kid getting raped because of a fucking character.

And Shaun has all the right to get fed up and leave. He isn't obliged to use twitter to promote the game.

I am just sad that such people are increasing. Twitter is such a shitty social site when it comes to these stuff.

Yeah this type of nonsense happens on the internet and social media all the time. I remember back when we were waiting for Dedication 5 to drop somebody threatened to kill DJ Drama if he didn't finish tagging the tape and drop it now, shit was ridiculous.

Then another guy posted a picture of a gun and threatened to kill his sister if J Cole didn't rewteet him or some shit. Cole did it just to be safe though, but just goes to show how fucking desperate some people are for attention, its ridiculous.

Why did we need a thread for this? Shaun isn't the only one who gets attacked on the internet but because he is one of the people working at NRS we make a thread for him? Fucking pathetic.

I bet you a million dollars that if some random person on this site gets attacked none of the hypocrites who are kissing Shaun's ass would bat an eye.

It's really sad, I don't give two shits about what happened to Shaun, if he is a little kid who cries foul at some random person who said something bad to him, why should I care?

It's not like that Dumbass who said something about Shaun's family actually has the balls to do anything or is actually hurting Shaun in any way shape or form.

I'm sorry but no, I'm not sympathetic with attention whores, so if I post on my twitter someone who said something like that to me, would any of you make a thread for me? Nope. So why make a thread for this guy? Because he works at NRS? Yep, just hypocrites.

I'm going to say what I said in another thread, the guy who said that to Shaun's family is obviously a dumbass but Shaun isn't smart either.


Shut the fuck up. How your annoying ass hasn't been banned is beyond me.

Because I have done nothing wrong, I didn't break any rules therefore why ban me?

But I guess some people just can't handle the brutal truth, it really makes me sad that some people would rather take lies over brutal honestly.

Oh well

"Bawww I got cyber bullied on the internet and no one gave a shit about it bawwwww" is all I can read from this. Take a chill pill. I'm goddamn sure that if you had a wife/children you would do your best to protect them, especially when it's a trivial threat on twitter.

Look at the level of bitterness here. No one gives a shit about you. Yeah, whatever, that's real tough. Still, it doesn't give you the right to trivialize someone else's situation.

Oh look a Shaun ass kisser, what a surprise.

Shaun isn't the only baby who gets picked on, grow up. How many times did you see kids in your school getting picked on and you did nothing? Exactly, it's not about what the guy said it's who he said it to is what's bothering all of you. I feel sad for you.

I actually managed to break down fights dozens of times and defended lots of kids that got bullied back in school. I felt that it's the right thing to do. Keep on walking and do nothing is the problem with our society these days.

I'm not a Shaun ass kisser, I'm a fan of MK and when I see that a developer had to step down because some shitstain threatened his family, it triggers me.

You don't need to feel sad for me, I don't need your sympathy, save it for yourself for being an apathetic human being.

The guy's obviously a shitty troll. Such is life in the zone, I suppose.

Shaun shouldn't have even bothered replying to him, though. Shame to see him go.

He gave us a lot of info about the game and was open to the MK community. Him quitting Twitter for a while is, in my opinion, worthy of note. He has supported us, why shouldn't we support him? The assclowns have gotten to him, so we are showing our respect to him, informing others in the community why he is on hiatus, and shaming the guy responsible.

I've been critical of some of the NRS's choices on Twitter but I would never EVER bring their families or anything personal into their work. That is beyond awful. I hope Shaun is doing ok.

What does how common it is here have to do with anything. This type of incident isn't that common on twitter?

I've seen posts explicitly stating rape, people hurling the word retard, and expressions of racism. Trolling or not people act stupid all over the internet.

Why you guys are sucking up to this incident as if its any different confuses me. Shaun is a public figure if only for a minute, and he knows this guy was being an idiot. Any reaction to this foolishness was not needed. Instead of responding to to him, he could've responded to any number of other people who are tweeting him each day. Giving attention where it isn't due is not solving a problem.

Stop acting like babies and use your brain. confused

Of course you did... You are the exception to our world, you are the hero of our time. You broke up a lot of fights and saved a lot of kids from being bullied. LOL.

Please, I have seen dozens like you, we as humans are always so predictable and very laughable to be quite honest.

I have no problem with standing up and going against bullies but my problem, which you admitted to be true, is that we only protect certain people. "I'm a fan of MK and when I see that a developer had to step down because some shitstain threatened his family, it triggers me." EXACTLY! This is my problem, people who stand for certain people, there are MILLIONS getting bullied, I don't see you doing anything about that. I don't see you don't anything about the people who sometimes get picked on in this very site.

Goes back to what I said, just a hypocrite.
