Derek Smart vs Dave Allen, Part 2

[Apr 23, 2010, 10:02 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Quest Online reveals a public response to the recent exchange of words between new Quest Online president Derek Smart and deposed developer David Allen. They offer an explanation of the change: "The company’s members also felt the prior administration, headed by Managing Member David Allen, prematurely released an unfinished Alganon product that exceeded anticipated budgets, contained an unacceptable level of performance issues, and failed to adequately distinguish itself from the competition." They go on to praise Smart's smart changes: "Since Smart has taken over leadership, the company has reduced overhead and streamlined operations and Alganon has also gained significant exposure in the gaming marketplace." The article also quotes Derek on Allen's lawsuit: "Mr. Allen’s allegations are false and without merit. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves in Court and are confident of prevailing in the proceeding." There is additional commentary on the situation on Smart Speak, Derek's personal blog.

Well yeah, cut and paste is way faster than typing it all up again. You should try it some time.

You should try keeping your word sometime. Specifically about not posting here ever again. I thought you were a man of your word Derek? Actually I never thought that, I know better but you did claim you were.
