So many drama queens on the GB forums. It can be fun to speculate, but keep in mind they are human beings.
That said, reality is almost always the most boring/mundane outcome. I think those who create the most drama here can attest to that.
Nextlanders dudes wanted something different and literally could not do it where they are. It’s hard to imagine GB duders have animosity towards the folks who helped bring GB to where it is.
Which brings me to my next point, those talking about “betrayal” and “using their former employer’s notoriety” to build a new community are talking out their butts.
First off, those who left literally BUILT this very site. To demonize them as if they are poaching off someone else’s hard work is flat out wrong. What you’re seeing is a trust keeping hold in their working relationship with the audience.
To that end, everyone here didn’t come to www.giantbomb.com because “www.giantbomb.com”. We came here because the crew fostered a community for us to gather. GB will push on with the amazing staff they have now and Nextlanders will now begin building something that reflects their vision. We all win, especially the audience.
