    I would like an answer.
    I PM'ed her and asked for her insight with a link to this thread earlier before I went to sleep. I'm pretty sure the community team is aware of this thread by now. If the CM's doesn't answer this thread until tomorrow I'll see if I get lucky and they pick up my question on the livestream tomorrow about this. I actually liked Avocado's style. still hoping this isn't true. But we know many people will not be making the move to redwood.

    If he was still here we would have been told.

    It's likely that they bagged him off and told the community team not to speak of it.

    Chris' Linkedin ifo still shows him as the EP of Defiance at Trion. You say, then why doesn't someone from the Community Team say so? Well, very few companies will comment on rumors.

    People have asked a direct question.

    It's not hard to pop and say "yep, he's still here" or otherwise.

    Only reason they wouldn't be saying he was there is if he wasn't.

    His last post was from a week ago on the alpha forums, his forum profile still shows him as the EP. I think he is still at Trion, he is just silent.

    Not entirely true. We are both MMO Vets, and it isn't uncommon for Rumor-A to say someone has been fired or left, and said individual (or a community manager) step in and say: No worries, person-A is still here working on the game.

    This isn't like a rumor of the show or game going away. This is a rumor of an Executive Producer being canned (or quitting) almost immediately after assuming the position. Commenting that he's still present would not be abnormal. Not commenting if he isn't, also would not be.

    So, speculation, suspicions, and conspiracy theories continue as expected.

    And for a company with already dwindling consumer confidence (including over in the Rift community), constant shake-ups and firings, and now a rumor of the newest Executive Producer being gone on the heels of "Major Changes coming to Defiance," if he isn't it gone then would be good business for dahanese to state as much and put this thing to bed.

    I did notice that Trion lists another EP in San Diego, Scot Lane. Maybe he's left over from EoN, or maybe he's the newest EP on Defiance?

    See what I mean? And history has shown, especially with SOE over the past 8 years, that constantly double-speaking, or keeping the community in the dark, is a sure-fire way to lose both customers and revenue.

    Whether it is dahanese or her upper management making calls on basic things like this, it isn't doing them any good with the portions of the community already looking at the door (or at least keeping wallets closed).
