). 13% voted to say they thought it was a"minor issue," with 4% saying it"isn't an issue," and 5% voting for"unsure.
The report also asked how the companies those who had experienced or witnessed harassment worked for had addressed the issue. 68% said their companies"addressed" the harassment —"either internally , externally , or both . One-fifth said no, while 11% were unsure." Individual comments from the survey takers were also shared in the report. One said,"Large companies seem to fear that their toxic players are their fanbase without appreciating that they are impacting much larger numbers of their actual fanbase," while another said “I’m a community manager, so it’s a part of the job, unfortunately... We need to recognize that behaviour when it happens, call it out, and set expectations that we are not going to allow it.
The survey covers a number of other topics, such as gender representation and social media. What do you make of the survey responses, and the comments about player harassment? Let us know in the comments.
