He might be sacrificing some reputation for the short term thrill of controversy.

That’s something we all should be wary of.

You do realise this is Jeff “Scorched Earth Party” Vogel?

Keep on truckin’, Jeff.

  • Literally didn't know who it was until the last post made it to the front page, so "you do realise who this is, right?" mightn't really apply.

    Even then, it's not like prolific game developers are excused from this or that by reputation alone. I don't remember Peter Molyneux coming out smelling of roses after that Kickstarter thing; just one blip in a lifetime of a prodigal career can be very damaging.

    I'm not saying that example and Jeff's posts are even remotely comparable, I just wanted to make the point.
