I suspect Goob might be wishing he'd done just that by now. But hindsight is 20/20, and I still doubt he'll change his mind without giving Worst more of a chance than a couple days.
As for him not asking us for our opinion, its not hard to see why he didn't. Ive been here a long time now, and Ive never seen the level of anger aimed at Goob as I have seen the past couple years. Very personal attacks, over the silliest little things. The anger and frustration are apparent in his reply here in this thread when he said "see this is what I get" (or whatever it was exactly he said). Many many of the people in this thread complaining they didnt get a voice in this, are the very same people who so often crack jokes about Goob being drunk, or a selfish rich ******* who only cares about profit, or stupid, etc. Well, this is the price paid for those comments and attacks, he doesn't trust the community as a whole. What do you know, our words and our actions here do have consequences after all.
