> you lose 1/3 of your staff in a week over an ego trip

That's how you see it. Many other people do not see it in such a poor light.

And many other people do see it as such. What are we gaining from pointing out there are many people seeing it in both ways? =)

Because OP said "you don't go back to being a beacon of the industry when you lose 1/3 of your staff in a week over an ego trip", which to me implies that this caused Basecamp to take a massive hit to their reputation.

Except it's really not clear how this is going to shake out, because people are quite divided on the issue.
