Rudy Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 if you leak something, you should know that if you get caught you will most likely get canned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reacon Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Saw that a few minutes ago :D I love the quote in a previous post "Rest assured, though: Until I find the person responsible, I vow that Valve will stop work on all projects." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToneKnee Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 It's just a joke everyone! :p There was an image posted about there was a spy in the base, and someone put a box around one of the things it said on the board, one being 'Leaked Video', was quite funny, but it is a joke. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadishTM Veteran Posted May 19, 2009 Veteran Share Posted May 19, 2009 I liked this one :p - "Marianne, send in someone please. Anyone at all. Oi! Send in someone with one eyebrow! That'd be marvelous.""Sir, you've fired everyone." "Already? But it's not even eight o'clock." "You've outdone yourself, sir." "Beaut. Alright, make a note that we need to hire 500 employees tomorrow." "Yes, sir." "Then put me down the day after that for firing all of them." "Yes, sir." "Oh, and get them to bring stuff in tomorrow. Tell them to put it in their desks. Tell them to load their desks right up." "Yes, sir." "Also, you're fired." "Yes, sir." Valve rock (Y) :laugh: Radish?

+John. Subscriber¹ Posted May 20, 2009 Subscriber¹ Share Posted May 20, 2009 I completely agree with them, to be honest. I don't know what all the fuss was about because a "Meet The..." got leaked. Why suggest that someone will get fired? It has absolutely no effect on Valves sales, or image. They've got bigger things to worry about anyway, like confirming a release date for HL2:EP3 :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowl Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 It was a joke people. It was for the Meet the Spy video (hence there was a "spy" in valve) Valve was having a joke with us :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
