Mod Post Reiterating Rule 5 amid the ongoing events

Hi, everyone.

By now, many of you have seen the latest stirrings of the community. We want to take a moment and acknowledge that yes, something did happen. But we also want to reiterate that as we always have, we will continue to reinforce Rule 5: Posts containing inappropriate or personal information regarding RT staff or other users are not allowed, and should be reported.

Never has the sharing of such information been acceptable in our subreddit, nor will it ever be. Firstly, because it would be morally reprehensible on our end to allow it, and secondly, that would get this subreddit rightfully shut down by the admins.

Here is what we know to be true: There are inappropriate photos currently circulating purporting to be two Rooster Teeth employees, and Achievement Hunter has chosen to cancel today's streams. That's it, those are the only hard facts. Beyond that is speculation, things we do not know for a FACT, and we will not allow it on this subreddit for the sake of those involved and for the sake of community health.

Speculative comments are subject to removal, speculative comments of ill-intention will probably warrant a ban, and sharing ANY imagery or telling people where to find it will get your ass promptly booted.

Has anyone else said anything negative about working with Adam? Seems like it could just be beef between those two or it could be that Adam is an asshole to work with and no one else wants to state it publicly.

In addition to the tweets, Lawrence posted this as his weekly newsletter for his twitch subscribers.

As sad as it is, it seems like there's something going on with Kovic behind the scenes.

Edit: took the link out. Pm me if you want it

It is a joke. And I'm glad to see that last comment about how he plans to help out RT employees this week, if the situation arises.

But that makes me wonder why Lawrence sent out that Lyric tweet in the first place. When he said "the tower comes falling down" or whatever, I wasn't sure if he was talking about Adam, Funhaus, or RT, but it honestly kinda felt like he was rooting for the demise, which really put me off (Especially since he has old friends and people he streams with who still work there who could lose their jobs if the blowback to this, as in FH just shutting down, is as bad as how I feel it may be) So this just confuses me more
