I'm not saying the whole Jeff firing hasn't bothered me but I'm taking a break and not just because of the whole Jeff thing. I actually disagreed with many of his reviews, but I don't like how he was cut down so unceremoniously. No matter what GS say about still being fair, I know how much money can influence business decisions. Maybe Jeff had it coming, maybe Cnet higher ups gave him guidelines for reviews that he didn't live up to. Who knows? I really like the community here, but its becoming too much of a distraction so I'm taking a break. I'll still pop in from time to time, but I wont be as active. I have a huge project at work heading into crunch time, so I need as few distractions as possible. GS is a big one. But its something I need to do, and it comes at a time when I've lost some faith in this site. The one thing I haven't lost faith in is the awesome friends and community we have going on here. I'll blog about the project I'm working on when it goes live, its going to be huge.

later

PS: I've started a new account over at gamersperspective.com. A few well known GSers are admins over there and its a nice little community. My User name there:Supermachine. Wont be very active there till the work thing is over.
