Hey Nick/Davis, I've been following OpTic since probably like 50k subs and it's definitely a shame how things are going since Infinite and the move to Texas. However all I can say is that the heart of OpTic has and will always be the people in the org and how personal it is. It would be a shame if the content team gets cut but they are more OpTic than any investor will ever be and I think the majority of fans are loyal to the people over the brand. As for the content team, I wish you guys would just produce content for yourselves as a team rather than feeling you need to do it for OpTic.

My question the whole time is how are these guys openly talking and posting this - exposing the weaknesses within OpTic, upper management, and the team as a whole, knowing they could see it? Maybe in a hope something would change? It's sad to see the brand going to this. I'm a fan of all the franchise - COD team, content creators, Gears, halo guys - seen you guys grow together and be a family and can tell for a while now that's changed. It's the pursuit of money boys that is the root of all evils. When you put money before people you lose all decency and the end result is unsatisfied and discouraged employees and team members and stuff like this. I really pray and hope you guys can work together and come together once again. OpTic is not like the others!

Suits like to think of their employees just as a commodity. They treat their employees like they do the desk in their office. You need to realize that they are not the only business in the market and so do you all as a group. I’m a;most positive if you approach a business like 100T as a group package they would move like lightening to welcome you all aboard. Heck, I’m positive Nade would even set you guys back up in Chicago if that was something you guys wanted. You guys all need to pull together as a group select a leader (like BigT) and start start putting your collective foot down and all be willing to walk if necessary.
