marremurt, i'm of chinese ethnicity and i definitely, like you, on first read, was uncomfortable with Rhys' response. however, like you, i've also discovered that OP was an annoying troll who deserved to be trolled back. Rhys' response, in that context, was absolutely perfect :)
Seeing your further questioning, I understand your concerns if what would have happened if GGG was wrong in this case (they weren't, but let's by hypothetical here. afterall, they're only human and humans make mistakes every now and then.)
Judging from GGG's track record, if they indeed were wrong (hypothetically) and ended up making fun of non-native english speakers, than they would bear the wrath of the community (english-speaking or not) and they would have to apologise unreservedly and make it up to the victim. They have done so before many times for other mistakes such as when they announced one wrong winner for the roccat races, and also when Chris apologised for the Razer mtx.
However, they were in the right here (and Rhys clearly did his research on this guy prior to Rhys posting) and as such, have no need to do any of the above.
marremurt, your concerns are real and definitely should be considered. rest assured, the developers and the community will watch out for this. :)

its a game but still its a multi online game, means more then "normal" people playing, even people with syndroms, handicap or anything else might play this game.
It does not really make any reason to make fun of people, its a game still its reality, people who work for a Company to earn Money, its their reality.
Well we got our Points, and you should understand what we trying to tell, the internet World is huge, and it isnt just 1 type of persons WHOs playing, i have being working with people who i have to help when they trying to play games, they want to play games so i can not force them to not play.

Umm,no. Quite the opposite actually.
If Rhys hadn't replied back like that, he wouldn't offend anyone. Plus Mark justified it as well, that is quite bad ethic in business.

Interesting position. Have you ever tried walking into a successful business and telling the owners how they should run their enterprise? How'd that go for ya?

Im going to try not to insult anyone here.. If you work a minimum wage job, then yes, you are expected to kiss the customers behind no matter what. GGG is not McDonalds.
Edit: Rhys is one of their lead designers is he not? I think he's allowed to voice his opinion regardless of how much stock he has within GGG
