since Upversive has received Greenlight on Steam, id like to be able to find the original Thief Team, anyone knows how to reach them

Not sure I see the correlation between your project going Greenlight, and contacting the original Thief team. Are you thinking of hiring some of them? Or just asking some questions?
There were dozens of people involved in TDP, now all spread across the gaming industry. (

A number of them are now at Other Side Entertainment working on Underworld Ascendant.

Thank you, i spotted that utube link tonight.
I tried facebook, but found only a closed profile,
cant really tell how to email them there.
Linkedin probably is the best bet.
I emailed that website to see if they where
the old team reunited again, but havent received
any reply, and yes, since steamgreenlight is
related to the funding and progress of the project,
i intent to see if i can hire some of the original
members and see if Upversive can be what
thief 4 was not ...

You seem to be going about this in a strange way. You're not going to be able to email a Facebook profile, or "that web site." Looking Glass Studios is defunct, you're going to have to contact individual people who used to work there. And that's all depending on what exactly you need. Are you looking for level designers? Programmers? Artists? Audio engineers? Just because someone worked at LGS doesn't mean they can help you with your specific needs. Remember also, almost all of these people all have good jobs with proven companies already.

Good luck getting Doug Church away from Valve.

Also apparently he's posting from a Commodore 64.

well for now im trying to reach anybody ... either individually or the team for further feedback, right now i am aiming for a programmer and level designer, and you are right, they already are solid names in the gaming industry, but you never know what surprises can come up, especially if the project itself is appealing to them. I dont intend to copy theyr legacy, but it would be an honour to work with them, that for sure!
