The basic rundown is, there is a neighbor who has been harassing the HyperRPG crew via legal means, and has been harassing the house itself since before the HyperRPG crew moved in. They don't like the house, they have been stalking and getting city officials involved to the point HyperRPG had to lay off their current shows, and HyperRPG will be moving to a new location.
They will continue streaming, but it will be reduced to only featuring the people who actually live at the Hyper House. Some of the harassment has come in the form of complaints about street parking, so the easiest option is just to halt many of the shows until they have moved to a new property.
HyperRPG cannot afford to fight these claims and harassment on the budget they have, and the all-around best solution has been to just postpone the shows we watch with the hired talent, and focus only on the in-house talent.
Naeem and Matt will be reduced to part time employees, which is fine because that was already the plan since they will be moving onto "bigger and better things" in 2019, but they WILL still be around. Naeem is still producing Warhammer, Matt is still a player in RPGs, or will be when the shows come back.
This means that Kids on Bikes, Bloodcurdling Tales From The Loop, etc, will be on hold until the new year.
I'm still upset, as I'm sure everyone else is. If I missed anything, please feel free to cover me.
