@Dank0vskys @rw5853227 Probably something along that line. Additionally, as much as we want to hear about the allegations themselves, that's not IPL'S cross to bear. As a corporate entity, you wouldn't want to touch that shit with a ten foot pole. Opens liability. Best thing to do is say, "He's gone!"

@Tomek_NB . . . I feel like this is when the camera zooms out into a sunset. We're so back man.

@jukJujada I need like 40 of these in my house right this instant

@IcePickLodge THANK YOU ICE-PICK I'M SO HYPE NOW

[Petra @SaveTheTechCrew]

@Tomek_NB TOO MOIST! TOO MOIST!!!

[Petra @SaveTheTechCrew]

@Tomek_NB @AidenBlue_ Maybe. I don't know much about those people. Im also trying not to generalize IPL- it's shitty that they haven't made a statement, but I don't think that alone destroys their reputation or should. Most people I've seen would be happy with a statement, a denouncement, or both.

[Petra @SaveTheTechCrew]

@Tomek_NB @AidenBlue_ Absolutely wild. Personally, I'm not gonna judge anyone on their decision to buy or not to buy the game, but I think it's gonna hurt their reputation. Also, a shot in the foot because the die-hard fans (artists, writers, essayists, and would-be merch hoarders) are the most upset

@localcreatura @Tomek_NB SOMEONE MAKE IT HAPPEN not a want but a need someone moisturize Artemy please

[Petra @SaveTheTechCrew]

@IcePickLodge Looks mad hype! Super excited!

Or, I would be. How's that statement coming along? I understand that you guys are probably legally gagged from talking about it right now, but saying that you can't make a statement at this time is still better than nothing

[Petra @SaveTheTechCrew]

@localcreatura It was in the off-topic chat. I don't think there's been anything official like on the reddit.I think everyone paying attention probably knows by now.

[Petra @SaveTheTechCrew]

@AidenBlue_ For clarity, Dybowski was arguing that all the people who said mean things about him were slander. I don't know in what direction the court ruled.

[Petra @SaveTheTechCrew]

@AidenBlue_ I heard something about a legal case going to the russian Supreme Court basically saying all the people saying mean things about him were slander. Maybe that's gagging IPL. I don't know.

[Petra @SaveTheTechCrew]

@sugarsweetlemon I don't speak russian, so I don't know, but it looks like a higher proportion of English replies and comments on both the twitter post and the youtube video are about him. On the russian video, I don't see a lot of folks talking about it.

@zedsdead___ @IcePickLodge If we want to be pedantic, I dont think he's the head of the studio anymore. He fiddled with the paperwork so he didn't have to pay child support. However, it's likely he's getting paid under the table.

[Petra @SaveTheTechCrew]

@IcePickLodge Oh, no, IPL. Don't think that you can just announce new things and hope we forget about Dybowski.

I would LOVE to buy this game. It looks great. But I'm not giving you a damn cent unless you assure us the wife-beater gets no money.

@YarKravtsov This is what I meant to say to someone suggested I translate another message from English to Russian via ChatGPT, rather than Google Translate. GPT might read better, but also has an equal chance of writing crap. I'd rather my words be oddly delivered than butcher the meaning!

[Petra @SaveTheTechCrew]

@isaac_truitt @YarKravtsov Thank you for telling me they were ironic. Google Translate doesn't help with tone - I gotta take everything at face value. Knowing this, honestly, this received a much more chill response than I was expecting. Yall understand, and it's nice not being antagonistic all the time.

[Petra @SaveTheTechCrew]

They... understand. They understand because we are joining them. You've mainly reached a Russian audience. Of all people, they definitely understand. They aren't ignorant to such things- they see them in their country, too. Advice, snark, or pity, it all comes from knowing.

Non-americans need to keep quiet 🤫 they have zero understanding of the gerrymandering, outright election fraud, and other shit that’s being pulled in this country. But they’ll keep spreading their ignorance instead of learning to stfu and listen.

[Petra @SaveTheTechCrew]

@EepiestCommie Bah. We Americans talk about all other countries like we understand, and now suddenly that it's about us "No, you don't get it?" Be real.

I swear, we aren't all like this! The loudest ones have the worst opinions.
