I just want to point out that this thread title is appropriate because you know the vapid haters were typing one handed while they jacked off to their sick twisted comments.

Go here and buy your Aristocrat For a Day item for the low price of 10 Latinum!Enjoy the rarified air of high Status for a day, but try not to get hooked!
I've been playing puzzles & dragons on my phone at work lately. What does this have to do with Pantheon? Not a god damn thing.

Another gem from the lore dev!The Circle is sitting, looking at the magic terminal that scrys into the world of Temrinus, excitedly glancing about and waving over the other Pantheon members, a great exhale of thrill and excitements escapes them and the world is rocked by a sudden tornado.
(In other words - great job on the new site design, I really like it! Approved!)

Has to be a joke account. Brad is so delusional he's letting anyone on the team right now. What's it matter? It's not like he gives a damn about the game.

I almost feel bad for Brad when this scam ends. What's he going to do when he realizes he has no income, can't afford to keep the home/bikes/etc he has, and no one will hire him in the game industry? I doubt he has any skills to work outside of it. His wife may very well leave him. Hell, in a couple years when I take my son down to Disneyland I may get to meet him in person, as he's hopped on up aerosol spray, pan-handling on the street corner. I'll have to make sure to have a $15 SOE game time card handy, just in case.

I'm sure word of Brad's actions will spread around SOE and Blizzard and maybe a couple other companies... but I doubt most of the 'game industry' have ever heard of Brad McQuaid or Pantheon before.
I'm sure he'll have no trouble getting work at some non-AAA/mobile studio. Hell, if Smed is still on his good side and provides a good reference, there's a chance this wont hurt him at all.

The MMO industry will know his legacy and his resume doesn't exactly scream "hire me" for any other genre. He's pretty well fucked saving some friend he guilt trips into a job.
Everquest makes very little money these days. Each dev you can expect makes 60k salary plus the server cost and maintenance. There's a reason they don't do anything new and exciting and the expansions are crap. Completely besides the point of Brad being ghetto poor and Pantheon not taking in any new money in weeks

Why would they hire him if they never heard of him? What skill does he even possess? An idea man? Good luck with that
People don't report post... The mods are on day and night like vultures waiting for any sign of activity. I used to hang out in the teamspeak and people would get excited when there was a new post.

First, Brad just isn't smart enough to have went for royalties. Let's not equate a guy who can copy paste MUDs and scam some old school retards into genius status here. Con artists are everywhere so good for him. Let's see how long this train can be milked.
Second, Brad is fucked in this genre. EQ is a well known franchise, SOE is one of the larger studios, and looking up what he's been doing is what HR for any real company is paid to do. Every company looks up an applicant's prior work history and it wouldn't be very hard to find the scams and failures of Brad's past. Throw in the rest of the top brass for EQ still being employed and a pretty clear picture is seen really easily. Smed doesn't need to help Brad out and I think he knows any obligation he might have felt was fulfilled when he tried to help Brad out this last time. The cord is cut.
Brad is one of the failures of the past that Ut doesn't even have to rail against now. This guy buried his own grave and has jumped in with both feet.
