But if you're interested in hearing a few opinions on a few different aspects of the topic, or if you want to hear my voice coming through an £8 Logitech desktop microphone I bought 10 years ago because I hate using headset microphones, then you might be interested.
It is not a debate, it's not an attempt at an unbiased news article approaching the situation from every angle and it doesn't cover or intend to cover all the angles of this situation. The former gives you some insight in to my take on things, and the latter is a very off-the-cuff conversation between the three of us. You can find that interview on Youtube now, and it should be on TotalBiscuit's SoundCloud by the end of the day. Of the two articles I took part in, one was a Q&A with Rock, Paper, Shotgun, the other was a close to 2 hour discussion with TotalBiscuit and Brumbek, author of SMIM. I have already respectfully refused to do a few because of this. It is my intention to do no more news articles or interviews in the media about this topic unless some new developments occur. Ironically (I know), before I sign off on the topic for now, I have taken part in two articles in the public media over the past week. But life on the Nexus must go on, and in order for us to move forward we need to stop talking about the events of the past week so much and continue on where we left off before this all started while trying to pick up the broken pieces in our community. This does not mean I want to forget it ever happened or think that this won't crop up again in the not too distant future. I want to begin to draw a line under this ordeal. I have had to remind myself that I had the privilege of having a bit of forewarning about this happening I had time to go through all the mental states, think of lots of the permutations and think of all the different arguments for and against the system, so when the announcement came, the shock for me was not knowing when it would happen or how they would do it, rather than not knowing it would happen at all.
I myself have written over 10,000 words on the topic over the past month. Since the announcement of paid modding last week the internet has been awash with discussion on the topic from all angles and extremes.
