>>23136086a few contributors got buthurt because progress stalled so they decided to go work independently, (also some bs about 4chan being a hostile environment, despite the fact that most of the development team did most of their actual work off site and used VP as an idea pool)
also something about someone getting doxxed, but that must have been their own fault considering it's pretty hard to get doxxed if you're only posting as anon weeks later when they posted a progress report things were still stalled and they couldn't even make relatively easy decisions like minor edits to the region map (basically proving there was no reason to ever leave)
the split resulted in a majority of the vp support base feeling alienated and becoming disenchanted with the project as a whole. The project dev team will likely shrink over the next few months before the project dies completely.
