As for Sparton, first there was that whole stink over someone (Can't remember who) outted his profile info....that might have played a small part in it
But from what I can piece together it had something to do with how he ONCE spilled a not so deep dark secret about their business model !
I might not be as active here on the forms with posts and replies BUT I do float around on here a lot reading up on this and that. Keeping my finger on the pulse of what players truly think about everything game related.
Seems funny that it was to long after Sparton started talking about their business model (How THEY chose to conduct it and not how best to go about it for both the life of the game and players) How they are loosing money because players are just not throwing down serious cold hard earned cash for the continued development. How that is why they are flooding the game with the sudden tsunami of newer characters, because to "them" that is where the money is at....
Wasn't long after that they either fired him or shoved him into a deep dark corner somewhere.
Aside from spilling that not so deep dark secret all of us already knew. Really what did he bring to the table ?
Like any of them you talk to he never opened up about events, up and coming features ect ect ! As for explaining system and game mechanics...anyone who reads and plays the game seriously understands that better then they do ! Trying to report the bugs and glitches that infest the game fell on deaf ears same as it does with anyone else on their "Team" They fix only the stuff "they" want to fix, and not what truly needs to be fixed.
Sure all this aside I do agree there needs to be a true sense of community and communication between them and us players...but like THAT is ever going to happen
