The firings of Zymurgist and Fallout are a tragedy. It is counter to everything Hilmar and CCP have been saying about promising to stay more in touch with the community. The only possible explanation for firing community leaders while simultaneously promising to redouble your efforts to stay in touch with your community is simple - "performance issues". The only way this makes sense is if the person responsible decided that Zymurgist and Fallout weren't doing their job well enough. You don't lay off community leaders to save money when the economic crunch was created by an angry community unsubscribing. Obviously the players disagrees with CCP's assessment of these two, based on our overwhelming show of support for them.

SO - the burning question on the table - who is stepping up to replace them? Who will take the lead on answering our questions and staying in touch with us? Who will take the lead on moderating the forums?

The first order of business for Zymurgist and Fallout's replacement should be for the new leader(s) to identify themselves, and outline what THEY bring to the table that is an improvement. You don't have to disclose the details of whatever "performance issue" supposedly led to Zymurgist and Fallout's termination, you can keep their secret crack addiction a secret. Whatever. HR stuff is closed door stuff, thats normal.

We the community deserve a strong CCP presence here on the forums, and a strong leader in delivering news and responding to the community, as well as moderating the forums and keeping dialogue on track.

The sooner the new leaders step forward and claim responsiblity for the void left by Zymurgist and Fallout, the better. In the meantime, consider this another major blow to the confidence the community has that CCP is responding to our needs.

I believe that by laying of the community representatives CCP is showing us The Door.

Apparently CCP Fallout is a confirmed kill, he would have posted a farewell letter. Sad

Well there shouldnt been any community leaders if they were let go for money issues. Not really sure where firing community leaders appeases the community angry at the upper leadership team unless it was strictly a money issue.

I'm surprised CCP is letting anyone go. It hints they must have been running their finances based against futrure revenue and not current revenue. Now with WoD pushed back, that expected revenue will not be there to cover past expenses, must have been running pretty close to red.

The players are the community leaders. CCP's community leaders were worthless.
