The industry slap-fight going on around BioWare Mythic and EA has expanded today as a freelance illustrator and artist has attacked the “EA Louse” for being a “coward.” Jeff Preston, the man behind the “Anonymity is for Cowards” post earlier today, tore into the soon-to-be laid off EA employee who slammed BioWare and called Star Wars: The Old Republic “a joke.”
"It kills me to see white-collar crybabies bitching about layoffs when people who work far harder, without donut days and comfy chairs get cut every day with no warning and no severance," he explains.
"Bottom line is that working for Activision, Electronic Arts or any other big company is like eating a giant sh*t sandwich at times. It sucks. We eat it or we walk.”
"The passive-aggressive sniping from a wall of anonymity is for pussies. Bitches who have this sense of entitlement. The world owes them! Writing posts like that just stirs up a sh*tstorm and enrages the mob. The Mob who really knows f*ck all about it means to work in a studio like this and what goes in to game development, especially on a licensed product."
This latest post follows God of War creator David Jaffe in attacking the anonymous developer.
The man responsible for the public outcry against his employer has yet to come forward.

Louse posted enough information for a smart investigator to identify him (my guess is him, not her). The anonymity won't last for long, whether they come forward or not.

Who cares? I hope this is the last I read from this. Everybody back to work.
