No thanks Cyb keep Hartsman on EQ2.

The game was inherently flawed but I don't think you can lay the full blame on Brad for the current state of the game if he hasn't been there for the past 8 months. Gilbertson is a total fucking moron too. Good luck saving that sinking piece of shit.

As to SOE hiring 50+ Sigil devs... sure they did and they took the best ones and moved them onto their new project.

I wouldn't totally discredit Brad at this point. He definitely fucked up bad, however he has some decent ideas in his head that may one day make a really fucking good mmo (maybe between 2015 and 2020 when technology catches up to "The Vision"). Even if a time like that comes however, he shouldn't be let anywhere near the business side of things, and definitely shouldn't be the president or whatever of the company. Someone needs to tell him what to do, as to not waste 30 million bucks again.

Brad staying on as a consultant is basically a way of getting rid of Brad, but also saving cash as to not have to pay his most likely huge buyout fee.
