SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

edit:  Nevermind.  Looks like it's more likely to be a garden variety AI/blockchain use protest quitting.  I didn't realize the industry was in such a solid shape that employees (whether freelance or permanent) could afford to quit a paying gig but so be it.   False alarm regardless.

Well, the industry is always in the shitter, but a steady paycheck doesn't do you much good when Florida has been turned into a series of islands, either. Crypto mining has essentially erased all the energy efficiency gains of the last two decades in two years, and I have yet to see evidence that blockchain is is anything other than an invitation to set your wallet and the deed to your house on your front porch in a REALLY GOOD COMBINATION SAFE.

For legal reasons, we're unlikely to ever get full details of the reasons for why everyone is not working there. However, I've seen some people researching articles to talk about what we do know.

Thanks for the update and maybe someone will "leak" some info since they're likely under NDA regardless.   As for Florida, it's just returning to it's natural state after we artificially drained half of it for amusement parks.  :)
