Veronica did mismanage Terrence. She either shouldn’t have let him on staff to begin with or shouldn’t have let Sarah go after him so relentlessly.

Had something like this happen when I was running a con. An ‘artist’ managed to get himself kicked out of our event for being a total arse. The next day they decided to clog our forums with a tirade about how we were ‘unfair’ to him. They decided to go onto just about every other convention forum they could find and post their same message. I spent the better part of 2 weeks tracking them down and posting our side.
Those like T-Douche above have a special place in heck awaiting for them.
