To address the news post i sent out:
There were a few reasons why I didn't include reasons for most of the staff who left. To get it out of the way, I did not mean to gloss over such a huge loss of staff, especially of people who've been here a long time and made huge contributions to both the game and the community. I'm sorry I made it feel that way in the announcement. I was and am continuing to try and give everyone space; The events that led to these departures are full of miscommunications and constant pressure, so it feels right to me at least to let people be. We all need a chance to decompress and process this stuff, both the folks who are currently on staff and those who aren't. I honestly still don't feel especially comfortable speaking on behalf of anyone who has chosen to leave, but we as a team want y'all to feel in the loop as much as possible while still being respectful of all the people who got caught up in the events of the past few weeks.
I'm sincerely sorry if my post added confusion and fear to a situation that already presents plenty of both. We're all still very much feeling this loss, but I know it's fresher to y'all than it is to us. I can promise you that everyone wants this place to be awesome and is working as hard each of us can to make that happen.
