Brad is a fucking genious. He is playing on peoples dreams of working on video games for a living. He is going to get an army of unpaid interns that will actually pay him to try to make this game. These people are drooling over the chance for this to be their big break in the industry. It's fucking brilliant.

Pantheon and the future
Greetings everyone! I am pleased to be in on the ground floor of what is likely to be a new and exciting age for Pantheon! There has been a lot of turmoil, changes, and negativity lately. We hope to change all that in the days and weeks ahead. Together with the rest of the team, we will strive to make sure you are well informed and engaged. We hope to help usher in a new era of open communication, teamwork, and community building. With this new system we can help let the devs do their jobs while keeping the community apprised as much as possible of new developments as they occur. Gone are the days of information being released slowly leaving people hanging for long periods of time.

With these new changes, we hope to breathe new life into Pantheon, and to energize the community once again! Thank you all for staying the course and sticking together during what has been somewhat of a wild roller coaster ride. I hope you are all as excited as we are about these new changes. Right now, as a community we are basically the fallen, and we will rise up and embrace the bright future that lies ahead for Pantheon!

Very good point and something people should seriously look at. The excitement level is very high because of this. People believe that they can get into the industry. Brad's intentions are getting the game made. I stated this before but I'll say it again. Getting this game made will bring far more money than this small ball BS.

I hope people don't get hurt in the process. I mean this with the utmost sincerity.

I'm gone a week and all this happens?! Geez... where to even begin.

Ok, Brad... this almost looks like desperation. You're on an island and now you're completely alone. People have built their rafts and chose the sharks over continuing working with you. There has to be a reason, you must address this and instead of trying to convince people to come to your island where disaster has already occurred. Damage control and cleanup is a must. Your reputation is shot and even if I give you the benefit of the doubt that you are just trying to desperately complete your game and create a means of steady income, it is still hurting the genre. One point of enlightenment however is the realization that the current market is completely boring and uninteresting which is why this is even getting any attention. The drama swirling around this game unforatunely appears to be more entertaining than the available MMO's on the market.

Now on to our new KTAM friend. I have no idea your intent. I'm sure it is trying to boost your site and hopefully produce some revenue. I don't know but you really remind me of the guy that Sam roomed with on Transformers 2.
Reference:

Anyway, you're not going to get anywhere here. So honestly, unless you just like the drama or maybe you actually want to attempt to be beneficial to the forum or you want to fight to rebuild KTAM's reputation on this board then I guess by all means hang around.

I think that's enough for now. I still have a lot to read but honestly, all of this is relatively sad but I guess it brings some entertainment value.

The kicker is if Brad somehow manages to get new Devs, he will cast those folks away and vanish. IE..Back to being Brad

Pantheon, the rise of AL-McQuaida
Bah, that's better than my "McQuaaludes" comment. You sir are well versed in the internetz.

So I'll be posting and talking about some of those ideas as well (tease/example: different types of mana, colored differently).
So, like green for stamina? Sounds ultra original, keep the vision flowing!

Edited for lack of bracket skills.

Nah, he'll still claim all the other shit too.

He's gone straight into looney town. He's completely broken from reality at this point.

Real talk here

I think about my job, and it's not a mega brain buster, but it requires a bit of industry knowledge and some creativity. I couldn't fathom having my boss tell me that we're taking on a bunch of random volunteers to help complete the next project. The amount of time I'd have to spend holding everyone's hands and reviewing their work (and correcting it) is just not worth it. In the end it would be better if I just did everything by myself.

Imagine having to coordinate a bunch of uninitiated developers with hopes of creating an MMO. Brad will have to spend every waking moment with these people making sure they're not making dick-shaped rocks in Unity.
