I refuse to believe a man who wears that kind of hat is a stranger to crushing rejection.

It's regarding a business relationship and should be written by an adult for an adult.

It didn't seem like it was about a business relationship to me but that's just me.

e: I mean, I think the letter thing is dumb, but as far as I can tell it seems like a failed attempt at a cutesy rejection notice trying to let people down easily and unintentionally coming off as belittling. If it is legitimately business related then sure that's even worse but it doesn't seem like the position is anymore business-related than a moderator position at something awful is.

I don't mind the springle thing because, near as I can tell, that is a rejection letter for a partner position which is just a special kind of account thing and isn't an occupation or paid position or anything along those lines.

Though messing it up as "without further adieu" instead of "ado" is :laffo:

You're right, and it's worth mentioning that it's not really a business relationship it's just unlocking some features on your server. The framing of "elves" that kind of makes it seem like random chance was likely designed to stop folks from being so disappointed they quit discord.

It's still loving weird tho lol

Mench'n-a-go-go-baby!

quote:

A legend among the Orcs of Mordor, Forthog Orcslayer is an unstoppable warrior who saves Mordor’s mightiest heroes at their moment of greatest need.

Mike ""Forthog"" Forgey was our Executive Producer and great friend here at Monolith. He was always ready to leap into the fray and save the game whenever and wherever he was most needed. We lost Mike to cancer during the development of Shadow of War, and we want to remember and honor him with a little bit of immortality in Mordor. The legendary Forthog Orcslayer is our way to continue having Mike leap into battle and save us when we're down.

We hope that you will share in the experience of being saved by the legendary Forthog Orcslayer as you enter the land of shadow.

(WB Games will donate to the Forgey family $3.50 from every purchase of the Forthog Orcslayer made from any 1 of the 50 United States or D.C. (but, excluding purchases made from AL, HI, IL, MA, MS and SC) through December 31, 2019. Void where prohibited by law. Your purchase is not tax deductible.}

This is neat right? I think it's pretty neat.

The only game I have in the shrink wrap, to my knowledge, is Uncharted 4. It came with my slim PS4 that I got a year ago and I just never got around to cracking it open.

He uses a Lute-Axe because he did music, which is something battle bards may use when they are not strumming a tune over your death, which is something they do. The rest of the DLC is eaten up by tax and Steam cut, so the money is entirely spent on the charity or to Steam.
