Yesterday saw the news comes down that Auran (makers of Fury) were closing down their doors and had let everyone go. Being laid off is never fun, but during the holidays is a serious case of suck. We here at Massively are shaking the mojo stick for you all that you land sweet jobs bringing new games to us somewhere soon, Auran folks! Hey Activizzard Blizzivision, a bunch of really good coders just came open -- time to snap 'em up for your next-gen MMO.
