Keep in mind that BMG isn't a big company by any stretch of the imagination. The company is basically 2 brothers, their friend, 2(?) artists and a QA-guy. The former QA guy was black, this much I do know. And they don't hold specifics for race, color, gender or creed. They're just a couple friends making a game. They haven't actively hired anyone (including staff, we're all volunteers) for anything in years, as far as I know, since the game doesn't really provide the amount of money it would take to keep hiring people. The game started out as an idea in a college, if I recall my chat with Brandon correctly.
And as a bit of personal input: I find the idea of people having to pass over others solely to hire minorities (i.e. being forced to have x amount of women at the top, despite maybe the men applying having better credentials/experience/expertise/e.t.c.) to be discriminatory in and of itself. Personally I feel like people should be hired by their skills and abilities, not skin color or gender, but that's just my two cents.
Regardless, our Mod team and Judge time, however, is extremely diverse. We've got American, European, different skin colors, different ages, different sexes and different sexual preferences and I can definitely say that I have never noticed any of us being treated less equally based on anything discriminatory by the development team.
