No more Vanguards?

Hey just a question, I noticed none of the Vanguards have their signature blue ribbon, I know Trophy was kicked out, but has the whole thing been disbanded?

Yup.

Alrighty then, for any particular reason?

Uber Offices, moments before the fall of the Vanguards:

Superfluous to requirement.

Also politics, which I won't go into here.

Would have been nice to have been given a reason before it had all gone down thought, finding out about it after the fact on the forums was very frustrating and the reason given was very underwhelming.

Ah, come on, it's not like we or you have lost anything precious besides a title, did you?

Clopse already pointed out what I've said. But just to be official: in some ways, the program worked really well. We felt more in tune with the community as a whole, which I think was the point. In other ways, the Vanguard program didn't work so well. It was a cool experiment, though, and who knows? Maybe we'll give it a shot again in the future.

Overall, we're here to listen to you guys and we're going to continue doing that.

Now, I'm going to lock this thread because I'm imagining this is going to turn into something it wasn't meant for.
