@RayMuzyka Good websites demand clarity and credibility – lesser ones enable ill-informed individuals to make stuff up about other people.
I respect/revere fans, because they speak with deep, honest passion. Journalists speculating on ill-founded rumors should reassess approach.

@RayMuzyka Anything particular sparked this? -
@RayMuzyka you're of course right. I think the increasingly speculative postings track right alongside ever more walled off access to info -
@RayMuzyka Speculation was most certainly done out of appreciation and concern, as I hope my post expresses. http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/AdamDmytriw/20120927/178359/How_We_Might_Be_Remembered_A_Farewell_To_The_Bioware_Doctors.php … -
@RayMuzyka that's why I ignored that article, it's bad journalism and not even a good subplot for tv where it's /supposed/ to be fiction. -
@TaleSpun Interesting -
@DanDawkins What sparked it: speculation by lesser websites on ill-founded rumors from ill-informed individuals :) -
@Richardmsiska Exactly. -
@RayMuzyka Yike. Cryptic. Got mailed a link to something that might be what you're alluding to. All the best for future, lot to be proud of -
@GarnettLee Maybe so. I certainly found the majority of journalists to be excellent, and I enjoyed working with them. -
@RayMuzyka Very classy of you to see about my peers in the field. Thanks. -
@RayMuzyka@garnettlee Great point. Sites / SEO crave traffic, but over saturation kills buzz. Tough for publisher. R* and GTA rare case -
@GarnettLee@RayMuzyka Info is walled off because game journalists don't build relationships with devs when their studios are small. -
@GarnettLee@RayMuzyka They ignore indies when they are small, and wonder why they get ignored back later when that indie gets big or merged -
@stephentotilo Always enjoyed working with you Stephen, plus Garnett and many, many others. I have the greatest respect for the work you do. -
@DanDawkins Indeed. -
@DrAdamAvatar Thanks for sharing that Adam; good luck in your medical studies and stay in touch! -
@RayMuzyka@stephentotilo@GarnettLee Ray, Ray, Ray -- you're retired; you can stop massaging the media! :P
