To be blunt, you guys need to get your shit together and make sure such "leaks" dont happen in the future. You are sitting the tone to more or less let anyone come in here and say something that is "Official working with blah blah blah XC team".... and this could in fact be something negative, which would cause the coin to turn upside down faster than you can wipe your backside.
Please understand what I am saying here... this is not the precedence you want to set.
I agree.
Qiwoman2 and silverkinguk have not worked with the team before regarding an announcement. Thus there was no precedent and they just went ahead with things.
This does not, however, set a precedent for the future. You can expect things to happen as they've happened in the past.
Remember, also, that Samuel is an XC team member. It wasn't "just anyone" who made the announcement.
