    There are still people defending Sharif around the internet too. Less than before but I remember right when news broke, people fully believed it was the boards fault, completely ignoring that there was no board.

      Hey I fell for that for like 2 days since I hadn’t followed the game at all and it made sense.

      Then I saw the rest of the info coming out and yeah, dude just tried a really obvious smash and grab. Hopefully prison time if he broke laws, but they’re so fucky it’s possible he just gets away with it.

        Yeah, I know he put out a bunch of stuff initially to support his side, but that hasn’t really stood up to scrutiny

        I’d be surprised if it were, but I still have some friends from other MMOs who bought in and are in denial. Sharif has some master plan and corporate shills derailed it or something.
