Independent Australian video games site PALGN is on the rocks at the moment after numerous staff members quit over disagreements with the site's owner Roland Kulen.
In an email to GameSpot AU, former PALGN staffer Jeremy Jastrzab said that: "As of the close of business on Friday, February 10th, the current PALGN editorial team will no longer be producing any content for the site and will be leaving to pursue their own interests. The reason for this decision stems from an inability for the editorial team and the PALGN ownership to come to agreement on how the site would function. Whether or not PALGN will continue to produce any video game content will be solely at the discretion of the current ownership and what they wish to do with the site."
According to a document anonymously uploaded onto Pastebin, the mass exodus comes after a long stoush between Kulen and various editors over how to improve the site.
GameSpot AU has attempted to get in contact with both Kulen and Jastrzab to verify the authenticity of the transcription but was unable to reach either party.
In the meantime, a new Facebook brand page for a site called Something Rocket This Way Comes has appeared. According to the page administrators, PALGN alumni have been working on the project, saying "For those who were wondering, some writers from PALGN will indeed be featuring on this new website of video gamerdry [sic]."
PALGN was originally started up in 2003 as a hangout for Australian IGN users but expanded over the years to produce its own editorial content.
