	Does that mean DDO gets Kate back? Or will varg be stepping up to offer us more tough choices? Edit: somebody else, it seems: https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/437022-Happy-8th-Anniversary-DDO!#post...

	Memnir wrote on Jun 14^th, 2013 at 10:59am: Note to any Turbine staffers reading this, and one I genuinely hope you share around the office: DDO has become a shit game because y'all have made it a shit game. Once it was great. Now, it's a festering puddle of monkey diarrhea. No matter how you try to justify it, or pat yourselves on the back for doing great jobs... it's a shit game now because of you. Y'all keep on giving the players the middle finger, and you keep expecting us to reward you for the abuse. I've had it with you narcissistic fuckwads and your myopic policies of ineptitude.

And I mentioned it on the motherforums (as you saw) and all the usual suspects tried to shut me down. Buncha bell-ends.

	So the new producer is Athena Peters who studied BFA Drama at Southwest Texas State.� Drama, hmm, I guess that could be helpful in producing a fantasy game. In a letter to alumni in Dec 2011, here's what she wrote: Quote: I am living a little outside of Boston, back in the video games industry working as a Producer/ Project Manager for a company called Turbine which is a member of the Warner Brothers Corporation. I am expecting twins in April and looking forward to the day they are old enough for me to start up my own amateur community/ faire Shakespeare theatre troupe up here where professional theatre is more the norm. It is really nice to know that it is only a 3 hour train ride to see a Broadway show or that I could drop in on an Ivy League University production most weekends If I don't end up raising two little theatre geeks it will certainly not be from a lack of trying! Just sounds like video games are the number one thing in her professional life, eh? Expect more owlbear costumes reciting MacBeth in future DDO videos.

	well, if she actually plays DDO and pnp like she says I think it could be an improvement. I wonder what the internal politics are like with her being promoted over her peers....

	Don't you see what's happening? Rowan slaps Cordovan's hand on a DDOcast video and Rowan disappears... the puppet master brings in a new figurehead, one that won't make him look like a fool in public.

Did you know Jerry is Jewish? It is rumored that he is also the mastermind behind the Ukraine coup.

	That would explain why you're not pissed by this move, after all you were quite happy to get Rowan on the DDO ship Edit : oh and since it's The Vault : put tinfoil hats on You can't mind control me you Illithid in a QA Kobold disguise.� Edit 2 : oh and since Our New Producer has let the cat out of the bag : I can confirm that the Council has talked about Epic 3 Barrel Cove. No I can't give you the details, we are not cleared to tell them yet.
