What even... I am so disgusted.  I don't understand why you would write something so incredibly disturbing about a co-worker, a staff member, a friend, or yourself.  This is wrong and although mit says he didn't write he should have at least looked at it and said maybe this would be a bit much and said no to publishing it.  None of these girls are "E-whores" and none deserve to be called it.  It's very inappropriate for anyone to speak about another person's relationship. Although it's  opinionated it's still an inappropriate topic. Its unnecessary for this and you should've asked all of the girls before publishing it and if they said no then you should've kept this to yourself. If you can write this you should be able to own up to it and say who you are.

If I wrote it I'd have tagged it as my own, as I generally don't care what the players think of me. However given the nature of said post, which was created fully out of joking and memes, and given who mcp alert is a blatant parody of, I said that this person could go all in and write whatever he wanted. I read the story and I put it in the news. MCP Alert and the original Drama Alert, all seem to push boundaries, and what people think of as Taboo Topics. Bringing the huge drama between DramaAlert KeemStar and the Runescape streamer. If Silas or Zeedin find that this went a bit to far and should be removed I have no issue removing it. However, the way everyone is reacting is one of the main reasons I allowed this story to pass into the actual news, it creates a buzzing topic and has all the players talking, does it not? Might not be good reactions, but it is a conversation starter. We were asked to become a bit more hard hitting and controversial so we did.

mcp alerts did not push boundaries, it crossed them. and also, mcp alerts is causing a negative buzz. i believe that this server is on its way to success, and the players of mcp are an attribute of that. by writing articles like this you’re making the players uncomfortable and making them want to leave.
