[QUOTE="ttrpg insider, post: 9259827, member: 7044694"] It's massively unusual for multiple staff to resign from a company and feel so motivated to speak up about the ethics of the situation that they [I]put their careers at risk by doing so[/I]. Whatever the issues are, there's four or five now people who feel that strongly that they must say something to warn the community. They are likely worried about what else they can say, and how they can say it, without winding up in legal trouble. Meanwhile the owner of the company is here posting multiple times to put his spin on things, then tagging in his friend and a trusted employee as character witnesses. This is, as someone else said, an abuse of power by the owner. It's also a classic damage control tactic. When you have done something bad, immediately put out a press release or statement claiming that you would never do that bad thing. Then spend time on socials/forums engaging people with concerns and either deflecting or pushing an emotional narrative. Corporate naughty word 101. We won't know for sure though unless we hear more from those employees. Morrus said he was reaching out, and I have seen a bunch of chatter on Facebook, so let's see what comes of that. [/QUOTE]
