[QUOTE="erc1971, post: 2842143, member: 40408"] Palladium is not completely out of the woods yet, but they are doing quite well. They sold over 1600 of the $50 "save Palladium" art prints. People donated thousands, others bought and bought books. They raised over $100K in the first 5 days per a status report Kevin posted on the Palladium boards. I attended thier open house on may 6th - it was basically a convention right in thier HQ building. Yes - I got to play in a Palladium game that Kevin ran upstairs in his personal lounge - awesome! The first half hour I was there, I watched someone walk in and drop over $4000 (yes, it was you Subjugator), they made a ton of money there also. They have raised quite a bit of money - Kevin himself said they have started sending money to pay off those outstanding bills from the embezzlement. I do know there was alot of speculation on this board that Kevin was just making this up to save himself from bad decisions - well, the court documents did come out - someone Kevin knew for 24 years and had hired 14 years ago was stealing from Palladium. So, stop the rumor spreading please. While Kevin may be having Ramen for dinner for some time to come - it looks like they are going to pull through this - I know if they posted saying they were still a little short, I would be buying a couple extra books to help put them over the hump. I also suspect that when things return to normal, Kevin will find they will be doing better than in the past, since they will no longer have someone stealing all thier product. Can I ask people to stop bashing Palladium and Kevin. If you don't care for the rules and don't play the games, fine. But, slamming the guy as the anti-christ who eats kittens and puppies for breakfast is a bit much. I can tell you from personal experience, Kevin is a hell of a guy, and does everything possible for fans of Palladium. (I have to defend palladium on the enworld boards, and defend D&D on the palladium boards, I am a bad guy no matter where I go, lol) Eric [/QUOTE]
