MODERATORS
Valve is an excellent example of a sustainable tech company. It's not on the growth at any cost, boom and bust cycle
I recall in a decades old Texas Univ interview, Gabe said you had to be aggressive in your firing processes.
Is the same video I recall they made him put on a horse head and try to hold up three fingers.
They just provide a service good enough for the more toxic gamers so they won't get harassed, nothing more beyond that. They have almost nonexistent moderation, and no longer are developing games.
They are developing a game at the moment, Deadlock. Lots of footage and a dev build leaked a few months ago.
