View Full Version : What's Dave Twitering about?
"After what I heard today I'm glad I left Rev3. No I won't tell you why. Just very poor form, very poor form indeed. (http://twitter.com/drandolph)"

The only part we're missing is "how it was handled."

Speculation ho! I kinda feel like that coming from Dave means we should pay attention, but I really don't know the guy.
Poor form? Could be about the Dodgeball games lately?

Im not sure Drandolph really cares about the dodgeball games, he was a very important person while at rev3, if he's not impressed, it's gotta be big....
Could it have something to do with all the new interns?

People should keep in mind that there are 2 sides to every story. Case in point, inDigital, which people do NOT have the full story on, so they automatically called Rev3 the bad guy on.

I'm not taking sides, just waiting for a statement of what happened. However, Coming from mr.randolph, it has to be relatively important.

He hasn't said anything and Rev3 is more than likely will not comment unless it is something out in the open and of importance. So even if Dave says something in public, if they don't think it's MediaDefender type news, it probably won't be addressed.
Personally I think this is about letting AJ intern (http://twitter.com/ajvchuk). Now THAT is poor form. :D

It's somewhat in poor form for Mr. Randolph to even make that tweet. The tweet was vague enough to not really say anything, but was specific enough to pique people's interest. If he was going to call out Rev3, he should do so in a proper way.
Just my opinion. He may tweet further details later, which will make my point a bit moot.

well I guess we'll just wait and see, I just find it odd that randolph would make a public statement like that. especially the "i'm glad i left Rev3" part. He put in so much work while he was there, it would seem out of character for him to make such a statement for it not to have some sort of relevence.

I agree since all this does is make people put on tinfoil hats.

Aww man,
And I was hoping that Dave could make some cameo appearances on Systm. Geez, can't we just all get along?

Like everyone else said, I'm more concerned just because Dave took the time to twitter that and those words coming from him are quite powerful. Definitely something to pay attention to.
I think Dave's a little manipulative in tweeting this. It immediately puts his fans at suspicion, but it doesn't actually provide any details. That sounds less like a problem with a current situation, and more of an excuse to bash Rev3. Which also sounds like a bad idea, Dave: Don't burn any bridges.
EDIT
Alright, read this (http://revision3.com/forum/showthread.php?t=19477) and that SocialBrew was canceled, and it seems to me that Dave might be criticizing the corporate image that seems to be surfacing.
Then again, his post talks as if there was a specific decision about something. All of this is annoyingly shady, and I'm starting to get concerned with the lack of transparency in Revision3. Even the statement that "for legal reasons we can't comment" is better than apathy. Revision3 was made by its loyal viewers, and keeping them in the dark can only be a bad thing. It's not that we're entitled, it's that we'd be a pretty bad group of people to misinform, or mislead.

It always looks bad the next morning.
Why do people here feel so entitled that they should be included on every corporate memo and have every event within Revision3 reported to them? Its a business. You are not part of the backroom. You are a consumer. JLo and Rev3 management are not going to conduct a poll in here to validate every decsion that is made.
Keep consuming the content, keep drinking the koolaid ... but for now there is nothing to see here, and random speculation is going to do noone any good.
