Who is they?

To my knowledge, an individual NMS employee with no named affiliation in his handle tweeted about the situation, certainly with a note of personal pride. Is that what you find inappropriate? That a person was individually proud of something that you find unremarkable?

Because if HelloGames has been pushing this beyond a retweet or something, I wasn't aware.

So they posted to social media for clout? That’s an even worse take.

And no it was a specific dev… did you even read the article?
