It's my understanding that Drumpf's brother serves on the board for the company that makes this game. Can I possibly get a confirmation from @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_BillE @ZOS_KaiSchober @ZOS_AntonioP @ZOS_JessicaFolsom ? It would make sense to me now, since I've seen a lot of racists in zone chats quite frequently.

    Why does it matter? If you don't like what someone said just mute them. It's not rocket science.

    It matters from a moral standpoint for me. I plan on cancelling my sub if this is actually true. I don't agree with anything that involves the current President in anyway.

    I don't think anyone cares about your morals my dude, if you don't like what you see then you're free to leave. Cancelling a game subscription service for a political reason that has nothing to do with the actual game itself is pretty sheepish/cultish to me. But you do you I suppose.

    Do you base this nonsense on all of his black girlfriends or just the black woman he gave the cities first major construction project to in New York in the late 90s?

    Robert Trump really does work at Zenimax Media.
    This is not a joke.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_of_Donald_Trump#Robert_Trump
    Robert Trump (born 1948) is Donald Trump's younger brother.[59] He is a business executive and real estate developer who managed the Trump Organization's real estate holdings outside Manhattan.[60][61] He was married to Blaine Trump[62] until their divorce in 2007.[63] He serves on the board of directors for ZeniMax Media.
    Also I don't think Robert Trump is the same man as you know who. So just because hes the direct brother of the guy in the white house does not mean that hes like him in any way.

    I’ll be celebrating Juneteenth with my family who organizes for real change in our community while you’ll be agonizing over a relative of some one’s who may not even know what an mmorpg is in his “diversified portfolio”. Yes this guy is on the board, still hasn’t stopped zos from writing a very liberal game (people in this forum even complain about how liberal the game is).
    Your scope is narrow.

    That makes no sense whatsoever. Even if Trump's brother is an investor, on the BoD or whatever, there absolutely no correlation between that and racism in zone chat. I've seen there before this topic and I'm sure I'll see the same stupidity after it's gone.

    The company that makes this game is Zenimax Online Studios or ZOS for short.
    The company that Trump's brother Robert S. Trump is a board director of is Zenimax Media, the parent company of Zenimax Online Studios and Bethesda Softworks (the people owning Bethesda Game Studios).

    So Trump('s Brother) doesn't have anything to do directly with ZOS or this game. But if performance is bad due to lack of money from the parent company and not software, then feel free to blame orange man('s brother) for that.
    This Bosmer was tortured to death. There is nothing left to be done.

    To be fair though, he does generate money for his brother according to what you cited regardless of his political affiliations. So it's not that far of a leap considering moral objectivity and funding said morality.

    Edit: I agree though. There's no connection between that and the racism in chat. This is something very much different all together.

    Exactly, Just because one of the trump family works on the Board of Dirrectors for Zenimax doesn't mean anything at all about the trolls in zone chat.

    Once I had a token as well. Made me feel special. On the regular I didn’t have tokens, but once or twice when I had a token, people really remembered me for it.

    Arguments about who is the purest liberal anything never end well...

    Look, if they uncomfortable that some portion of the money he spends goes to someone who is related to the President, enough to stop spending any more on subs or whatever, that's on them. They have the right to spend their money however they want.

    You can do something more tangible about those racists in zone chat, if you so choose.

    Report them any time their comments breaks the TOS. Include screenshots if you can.

    Then, if you desire, tell them to shut up in zone chat. Speak up, and let them know that they aren't talking to some silent majority that agrees with them. Back up the people who are telling them to shut up. Make zone chat a welcoming place, not a hive of scum and villainy.

    It’s not about purity. It’s about scope. I can’t stand Amazon so I don’t shop there, on the other hand there is nothing I can do about Amazon Web Services which is practically a monopoly over the internet and almost every place I do patronize is tied into AWS. solution: vote the people out who allow this to happen. Not a solution: whatever this thread is.

    If you feel that strongly about it surely you would stop playing the game, and posting on the forums. As both are affiliated with the Trump name.

    Stop trying to push your political agenda on to other players on a forum for an MMO. It is off topic and has no place here.
