IGDA Posts Game Developer Social Media Considerations

The International Game Developers Association (IGDA) posted questions intended to develop guidelines on how developers should use social media.The post was published on the IGDA blog by Jen MacLean on Monday, and is intended to help establish guidelines on acceptable use of social media in order to protect game developers.While many employers have some form of social media policy, the interaction between game developers and the game community has been a point of contention in the gaming community recently after two ArenaNet writers were fired for their interactions on Twitter with a YouTube partner who streams “Guild Wars 2.”
