Support staff truly are "the rest of us". Star Tek has a call center here in Decatur, IL (Star Tek) that just had a mass layoff of 350 people. They provided phone support for AT&T, Verizon and others. You're right - it is about the people, not about the game release timetable. Actually, I know Mr. Morhaime had to mention those things, as it was relevant to the business.
I think people should focus on what matters most ... so, Grab Your Sword and Fight the Horde!
