Jeff is a savvy guy, he's been on the Internet longer than I have, I have no idea how he things this is going to work. This NEVER working.

Giantbomb will continue mostly unchanged for a time but its independence and personality will be destroyed one compromise at a time. Every time this happens the small busyness being sold seems think they are special, that they will be the one this works for. Unfortunately no one is special, when you sell your company/product/brand ect. to a large corporation they will destroy it, fact of life.
The fact that the overwhelmingly negative response in both chats was in no way acknowledged on the stream would seem to indicate they are already in some way gagged. I'm very sad today, I put my money into this site because I honestly cared about. it.
