Hello and welcome to another edition of the Giant Bomb Community Spotlight and I, @zombiepie, am once again honored to be your host as we look back at the wonderful community creations from the last week. Holy crap! For whatever reason, and I'm not judging, the community wrote up a storm this week! Outside of the Christmas and GOTY themed editions of the Community Spotlight, this might be the most I have ever written for a Spotlight in a long while. But, I love it! Having more community content to share is not a bad problem to have. However, I do want to ask all of you to try seeking out one blog on the Spotlight and taking the time to thank the writer. Some of these blogs are still looking for their first comment of support and that one comment can mean the world to a lot of people. With that in mind, let's jump into the site-related housekeeping!
- Red Ventures is looking for a "senior front-end developer" to work on Giant Bomb and GameSpot! If you are interested in working on the site give the job posting a read!
- The Purple Twitch Screen Of Doom has definitely been edited to last significantly longer than before. The staff are aware of the issue and moving forward, will use the dedicated video player for most livestreams. However, be aware the video player is bit harder to set up and for "informal" livestreams, staff are bound to prefer to use Twitch.
- There is a known issue with Giant Bomb videos not working on the PS4 browser. Rorie has filed a ticket and will provide updates on when the issue is fixed.
- Likewise, there's an issue with users not being able to log-in if they use the Safari browser. Rorie has filed a ticket and the engineers are aware it is an issue on Giant Bomb's end. This bug will impact iPhones and iPads as well as laptops and desktops.
