Summary copy/pasted from Grummz: (archive)

Frost details why he resigned from Second Wind and his problems with Nick Calandra. Claims made and exposed in this video include:

• History of slandering, libeling, blackballing and threatening to mobilize his audience against people in the games industry with the explicit intend to harm their careers.

• Gamurs (Escapist owners) were going to demote and fire Nick, giving control to the others.

• Nick was making/made a documentary for a studio in exchange for a four thousand dollar investment in Nick's kickstarter

• Nick tried to micro manage every creative decision, steering content to validate his views while minimizing critism of his views.

• He Isolated, overworked, verbally attacked and manipulated his coworkers.

• He blackballed small indie devs if they asked for coverage too many times. He discouraged others from doing pro-bono coverage of indie games so he could charge them instead.

• Mislead the community into the costs of the business in order to elicit more money from them in sympathy.

• Even though he was not a top earner for Second Wind, he was paid 2nd highest. He replied: "I'm accustomed to a certain lifestyle and have a mortgage to pay."

• His business decisions overspent and ballooned costs at Second Wind to over 1M, a 40% increase for no real benefit.

• Nick constantly went for power grabs within Second Wind. Nobody picked Nick to lead SWG, it's just that nobody else wanted it.

• Nick cyberstalked his peers in the industry to the point of making them uncomfortable.

And so much, much more in this video. Give it a watch.

Nick is the man who worked for 3 months to slander me and attack my character and business. It turns out it was all gaslighting and manipulation and harassments, part of a pattern that is revealed in this video of his entire tenure in the industry.

He was projecting. Everything he falsely accused me of, was actually his own dealings, unethical, and stalker-ish behavior.

Nick has done some damage to my reputation and my game with his lies and manipulated tweets. But, we're still here, and Nick is rapidly on the way out.
