Guess everyone knows it already or else you haven't been online lately.
Worlds largest art community site (I believe) 14.000.000+ uploads is in problems.
Spyed president of deviantart.com has decided to fire Jark the guy that once created deviantart.com with matteo. This resulted in the fact that now already 10 admins have quited their job and deviantart.com is flooded with images to support Jark.
As much as I support Jark and Matteo, this situation's giving me a headache >_

Third Nerd War. Hah. I like that. It fits, bobbysandhu
manipulator: Yeah, if the lawsuit falls through, then Jark will be making a new site with similar principles and a better watch on the soulless capitalists.

That's kind of the point of reading the message in the link titled "The Truth" so you can find out what reason they were let go. Basically, it's because one guy wants to turn DA into his personal money machine. But yeah, read the message to find out, angel007.

This is just about the money as it always is. Small business turns big business: gets ugly.
It seems, to me, from reading 'the truth' that Jark should, as the main shareholder, call an emergency meeting of the board and move to remove Angelo from his position as CEO immediately.
Abuse of power, disregard of company law (where shares are concerned,) seem a good starting point. But Jark seems more interested in kudos.
Get with the plan Jark before it's too late for you to remain at DA in any capacity.
Any and All...

Uh oh odd [ link ] found among other things this [ link ] . If this is real (and I don't trust any internet source) then this explains a lot. Ugly situation to say the least.

DA was Jark until Spyed decided to make it a money tree. Jark ran DA for the love of it and it really showed. Now that he's been stabbed in the back, I nixed my art on DA and endend up a refugee on AU. Too bad this happened right after I subscribed as my money would have been better spent here.

DA is a soap opera. I pulled all the work I had on there that I wasn't selling just because of the harrasment I was getting.
Mmh. I'm on DA, and I'm having strong intentions of bringing all my art down. I've just joined here because someone wrote that this site is safer (and nicer ). Perhaps I'll move here completely if nothing happens over on DevArt.
