I would have thought with PlanetCoaster the stocks would have improved... or at least become more stable? I mean this is Frontier's expertise after all, Elite has always been niche, Rollercoaster sim at least attracts from a wide demographic. Hell, my aunt and uncles computer had Rollercoaster tycoon on it.

By chance are you a politician?
true but due to kickstarter backing this is not the average non disclosed project, isnt it?
and what is so damn difficult to make a short posting BEFOREHAND about the change of a well known comunity figure. Its not needed for the day average coder which noone knows, but if its a "public" figure, a short explanation is just good to EASE the public reaction on it.
Unlikely, it is obvious that the decision regarding SJA won't be reversed by 'gnashing of teeth' on these boards, (quite rightly), but I do not believe it will be harmful either, if the more 'passionate' posters in this thread don't have an influence one way, (quite rightly), they are unlikely to in another.
Perhaps you should tell my employer and clients that then. WE're a big believer in project persistency where I work.Given a lot of my work is client facing, and we regularly interact with our clients (I'm a combo project manager/technical engineer/test lead for what it's worth) our clients tend to get understandably nervous if and when one of us is moved to another project at the last minute.
Different strokes for different folks I suspect.
Got to witness a lot of PM work in a local authority infrastructure upgrade, to say that people got moved around a lot is an understatement. People got axed left right and centre, parent company would often send people down to do the work and then they would just vanish to some distant country for a seminar and never be seen again. One quote that held though was 'The problem with project work is, you work yourself out of a contract'. Suffice to say, the project was ongoing for way longer than it should have been and many of the glaringly obvious improvements suggested were ignored.
And you're comment sir shows you don't understand sprint planning and priority management.
This isn't an infinite monkeys scenario. If I give you 2 sprints to fix something, and 4 sprints in it's still not delivered then it's time to move on and maybe let someone else have a look at it. You've already cost me 2 sprints where I could have used you as a resource.
Passionate ain't the word I'd use for them, but there you go!
Not my choice either but chose diplomacy over truth!
And therefore should be completely ignored as there are much more irrational explanations that deserve our support......

Apart from the "gnashing and wailing of teeth" bit.

Aye, and I ain't ready for a ban quite yet! They said this forum had an older, more mature, demographic than most - codswallop!
we have the information that FDev hasnt done ANY damage control. Thats enough information for me ^^
Yeah when I read that I knew that this was not one of those 'nice independent developers' that are built on loyalty and trust, you won't see me pre-ordering anything from FD for this very reason. I if I am giving them my money (which I'm short of btw - I notice a lot of people here seem to be well financed), I am giving it for the reasons they list, I don't want those reasons to suddenly disappear like they did in this case. And then to argue it?
By the way, what happened with that? Did those people who play online eventually get their money back?
Posting in epic thread to gnash teeth and pull hair with the 'best' of them.
What are 'we all' angry about??
Speculation?
Oh well, carry on then It's an internet tradition I believe.
*sigh*

Yes, I understand that eventually FD did the right thing.
No need to be insulting, I understand them fine thanks. Any way you cut this it smacks of bad management. Staff who have been made aware of their deadlines and the conditions under which they are working tend not to react with shock and horror if that deadline is missed and they are reassigned. And the AI is still broken.
