I think this board can be scratched off.

RT: @raijinn: When you pour everything into what you do and are let down, you're left pretty deflated. Oh and I'm looking for employment.

[Baneblade]

Okay.

[DviddLeff]

So Raijinn lost his job at SOE... but I seem to remember him being surprised at the news of PS2, or am I making up memories as I grasp at hope filled straws?

[Sifer2]

What are you guys saying that this might mean Planetside 2 is canceled? It has been a bit since they said anything about it. No one has insider connections to be able to ask?

[Baneblade]

Raijinn was nobody that really had any real influence in PS, and mourning the loss in that capacity is silly. PlanetSide's future had zero to do with him.

Gaming companies, especially in an economic crunch or especially companies that have excess employees who affect the company's bottom line on games which don't have a lot of income, routinely lay people off.

I saw two years' worth of layoffs at EA-Mythic. People come and people go. That's all there is to it.

SOE actually had some pretty severe cuts in the last year and a half. I think they're probably just condensing their Community team, that's all.

I know you scooped the Galaxy, so I'm totally not going to reply with a sarcastic "How's this thread workin' out for you?"

[Hamma]

For the record I believe Raijinn is back at SOE.

[Dorest0rm]

Ah, his LinkedIn says hes working at SOE again.

[Hamma]

Doing some kind of social media thing, I saw him tweet on the SOE account today.

[Traak]

Please elaborate
