A Fish Rots from the Head

[Sara Marie]

Folks, I'm locking this thread while I get in contact with Tonya. She's on her way to UK Games Expo at the moment and I haven't been able to get a hold of her. I don't want to shut down avenues for addressing things that our community feels are issues, but reviewing the thread, this doesn't feel at all right for what our forums are supposed to represent.

I've thought a lot about this thread overnight (and the other one that was started this morning). I have yet to be able to talk with Tonya; she's over in the UK at UK games expo, as well as some other things going on making it hard to get in touch.

This kind of call out thread is not really appropriate for the forums. It involves people who are not privy to the same level of information and details concerning other parties that Paizo is, making claims & accusations about other community memebers. As a company it would be wholly inappropriate for Paizo to discuss these details with 3rd parties, particularly on a public forum.

I'm going to remove most (all?) of what's in here. A lot strikes me as gossip reading this. I really need to confer with Tonya. I want to be sensitive to the concerns raised but it is also my responsibility to ensure I protect the privacy of individuals in our community.

If you want to make an impassioned plea or statement of support for another community member, you are welcome to email me, I'd be happy to bring these to Tonya, however, this involves individual community members and my only response can be to thank you for your feedback.
