I dont know if this would be considered evidence but here's what I've come up with thus far. http://ttxstuff.homestead.com/files/fake.JPG
I've circled 2 areas. #1 as labeled, the big oval is an area of the text in question. Note that blurred/scrambled background in the worded areas and not around the letter "I" above it. #2 is an area between the worded areas in question. Note the smooth/clear background between the words. As someone else has shown, in a legit picture, the background in the worded areas would be clear, and not blurred as shown above. This will prove that this is clearly a shop.

For one thing, there are misspellings and bad grammar all the way through the supposed GM text. No gaming company hires GMs who can't use proper grammar and spelling, just as no TV news network hires anchors who can't speak clear standard English.


actually i've seen multiple screenshots of conversations with GMs where the GM is using no better grammar or spelling than your average young webcrawler. "your" instead of "you're"... "their" instead of "there". the usual.

i wish you were right, but i think a more accurate statment is that gaming companies hire GMs who understand the world of computers and gamers. they don't hire for exact grammar skills any more than the TV networks hire anchors who can act. :-)

I've had GMs I could hardly understand at all. I even had one mistype to me before.
