Another situation came up this weekend, but I didn't updated here at that time. Mostly, because I was giving time for folks working in the industry to make decisions and get responses out.



Matt McFarland (who had prior accusations against him) had more accusations come out this past week. Additionally, accusations came out against his wife, Michelle Lyons-McFarland, for serving as cover and shielding duties while in a leadership position. Some of you may recognize that last name if you trace back to the Dumpshock/Bulldrek days (or were big FASA/FanPro fans, as there was a lot of editing/freelancer work done by Michelle at various points).

TL;DR - Matt and Michelle abandoned most of their social media presence, shut down their gaming company immediately, and Matt put out an apology.

(Also, content warnings for the included link, because it's dealing with abusive relationships.)

If you're still a supporter of Zak Sabbath in the gaming world, you might want to rethink that. If you're not sure who he is, I wouldn't recommend going down into that cave of insanity. Short version?

1. He worked with RPGpundit (AB folks will remember the pain of that fellow) on some minor parts of D&D 5E
2. He got picked up as a major creative force by the rebuilt White Wolf when they were bought from CCP in 2017. This was right after they went on to republish an older short story collection edited by an convicted pedophile, so that one of the new edgelord authors could add his rape short story to the collection.
3. He's a big part of the OSR (Old School Revival) creator crowd at various points.
4. He and his shield allies will absolutely go after folks relentlessly, so be aware of how public you make any of this.

Just posting it as a notice/reminder for folks to check up on the creators you support.



(Side note: There's an interesting intersection of things when Zak S's first claim to fame came from his D&D with Pornstars series on the Nerdist back in the day. Back when Chris Hardwick was still a part of it.)
