Putting that out there because that seems to be the way these things go. Understand I don't have any concrete facts to base this on, conjecture only. Can remember from WAR, among others, six months in and it starts getting around that employees have quit. Then blogs/articles start showing up disclosing what really happened at the company. All the issues behind the scenes, the disagreements between the publisher and the developers.

This may be waaaay to soon, but right now, I think I smell blood.

    Publishers can go "f" themselves. They are worse then the stuff that collects in your bellybutton.

    A rumor is not true until proven so.

    Rumors doesn't also ruin peoples lives/credibility/others, it is also the main reason for misunderstandings among people.

    There is a big reason why starting rumors been so successful in politics and complete failures in business.

    I can't wait! In fact we should start some of our own!

    For example I heard from my friends cousins uncle who works at Toys r Us, that his mom who works at Target was bagging groceries for 'Bill' and 'Bill' told her that the corporate suits made them cut out the were-skeever skill line so they could sell it as a dlc.

    WAR is a bad example. Those employees (Mark Jacobs) were essentially fired.

    This thread is unnecessary. Wondering when people are going to lose or quit their jobs?

    Layoffs come first, then possible quitters.

    didn't heard about someone left.
    History, like a human being, is thirsty when it wakes from its slumber…History wants to drink up an enormous amount of blood. And even if history has tired of drinking blood, that’s only in regards to the amount. But what about quality? The larger the sacrifice is, the more delighted the cruel gods will be.
