you can't really blame them tho, he most likely turned away potential customers by creating a controversial comment like that

Let me get this straight.

A guy jokes with a buddy on twitter.

Fanboys go ape shit.

He explains it was in jest.

Fanboys continue to go ape shit.

He get's fired because fanboys went ape shit.

Fanboys will continue to go ape shit.



His life and the world would be a lot better if everyone would just ignore stupid fanboys and their stupid fanboy rants.

Yeah, not quite. He was fired for quite stupidly going on a public forum and making VERY OBVIOUS REFERENCES to a product whose existence his company hasn't even confirmed yet. The vast majority of the offending tweets were not between him and his buddy. That "why on earth would I want to live there?" stuff came later.



So he resigned yet people are saying MS fired him.. Geez people read..



 

Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!) 

The moral of the story is:

Don't say anything on Twitter. Or Facebook. Or any social network.

Because somebody somewhere on the Internet will get mad.

i mean who cares if the guy is married or not? or if he has kids right? he said something on twitter. he should be put in prison

Yeah, the plastic boxes sitting next to our TV's are the only things that matter in the world and we should all take comments about them as peronaly as attacks on our character.

Cut out his tongue and throw him in the viper pit!  May he burn in hell for all eternity and his family suffer for his sins.

Adam Orth feared not the fanboy pox and it consumed him. Let he be a lesson to all who might challenge the will of the great and powerfull Fanboy!

maybe he means anybody but that Don guy.



No one else to blame but himself, next time keep your twitter from public view and only accept your friends. Your a management like figure act like one, Microsoft most likely forced him to resign rather than fire the guy.
