    To be honest there is just going to be a lot of speculation. Keep on playing, keep on enjoying. The devs are still working on things and I am sure that they are making money, regardless.

    It could just as likely be a strategical move, as much as it could be something sad.

    There shouldn't need to be any speculation, because there should have been an announcement.

    Exactly, but this thread stemmed from a change of text on the linked page in the OP. :(

    Or nothing is actually changing and someone is just wanting to start a speculation thread.

    What made a veteran to this game even look at that page? Checking to see what the job titles of the devs were for standup notes?

    Everything's a conspiracy theory first and foremost.
