The one after the April Fool's one, the one in which he/she wanted to clear some things up.
Why did it get deleted? Stirring up a major ruckus? :wink:

He wrote that blog post with a gun in one hand and a bottle of whiskey in the other, which raises the question of how he was able to type in the first place.

Or it was real drama and other devs quelled it ;)

Or it just was a serious post that shouldn't have been posted on April 1st, of all days.

hun, that is a bit odd. Why would they do something like that?

Presumably, if it was a joke then the other devs found it less than amusing. Else, if it was serious then they thought it was inappropriate and/or slightly worrying.

I think what we should get out of this is that Hivemind didn't really mean everything he was saying, but he had some good points. Probably the devs do think of what they're doing as art, and they concede that there's a possibility that it could start an "OELVN Revolution," but that they aren't actively trying to create a life-changing experience. What happens, happens.


Or they're fucking with us.

You've never used the computer after a drinking binge? It's awesome how everything just flows out without pushing it.

Anyway, it's a bit sad that it got deleted, it made me lol IRL.... a lot.

The post was serious, but slightly too over the top in tone. Thus, removal. End of mystery.

I hadn't been drinking when I wrote it, if that makes a difference.

Damn it; and we were just starting to get a good conspiracy theory going, too! :lol:

Again, Damn it!! If you had given us a few more pages of posts we would have had you writing that post on the Dev Blog with a bottle of whiskey in one hand, a revolver loaded with a single bullet in the other, sticks of dynamite wired to a detonator stuffed in the waistband of your pants, a big bowl of pretzels in front of you, while singing "The Manly Whiskey Song"...... :mrgreen:
