Don't know what happened to the last thread. Maybe Scruffy is getting too 
sensitive about anything involving Sibsy, but it concerns the show and the 
animation industry in general.

Apparently Sibsy was reacting about this article 
(http://www.polygon.com/2013/8/15/4622252/plague-of-game-dev-harassment-erodes-i
ndustry-spurs-support-groups), and maybe it tells us something.

Vidya is going the same way as animation, because it became a huge industry. 
Back in the day, it was an industry too, but only in the hardware side of the 
vidya, the games were still developed by little teams with no million-dollar 
budget.
Industry has a huge drawback: it tends to suck the spirit out of everything it 
touches. Sometimes, it takes a strong-willed person to take some risks and 
still manage to satisfy the big corporations. But given the pressure and the 
lack of talents around them, they often see their ambition crushed and either 
quit or deliver something that just panders to the audience.
Art and money are not incompatible, but you don't need money to be creative, 
and money only should be a reward, a side-effect of your talent and effort, not 
the end of everything.

Regarding Sibsy's and Dusty's dubious statements, artists are not working for 
us. If the show ever ends for whatever reason, we have no power over this, why 
should they stress about that? Do what you're entitled to do and stop taking 
everything as an attack against you. Critics are there, take it or leave it, 
you've got to sort what's worthy and what's not if you want to learn something.

Still, that's debatable, since I have a kind of naive, pure vision of art.
