You misunderstand. I avoid interaction with him because it doesn't interest me – not because I distrust his input, or find it worthless. I simply don't feel like doing it. Fundamentally, him betraying my trust is a matter of destructive behavior, and a lack of respect for other people.

Because his feedback is being taken into account, in at least three different ways, on top of which, he will be invited to post and vote, in the public read-only forum I'm having set up for the beta, which makes it at least four. Like I said: I don't think excluding him from the development process of the patch would do any party any good. It wouldn't be very constructive, of me.

From your perspective, it's certainly a good question, though!

scarm wrote:@zoom no need for sarcasm there. Fact of the matter is Kaiser, diarouga, mitoe and garja (sry if i am missing someone) are the most active top players in that regard, nd being responsive to noobs goes a long way as far as popularizing the ep goes. I dont know/remember everything there was going on except a long discussion about you becoming ep leader and a big discussion and lots of accusation happening; but it seems most people at the lan perceived rouga as nice and agreeable, nd he also is acting kind of different since then. Maybe its time to ignore personal grudges (even if the "window for excuses has long been shut"), since what matters is the result, and many people in the community obviously like and respect diarouga.
There's no grudge. I only wish him well. I just have zero personal interest in directly interacting with him, since before this year even began. I prefer interacting with other people, or none at all.

Even now, it seems the poor thing is telling everyone – himself included – that he's nothing but a victim, when he is literally everything but one. The fact that he made this topic, given the context, should tell you everything you need know. It's great that Diarouga does good things, too! It just doesn't affect how I feel.

Again, getting the wrong idea is easy, ignorance and naivety provided; you have limited knowledge, and fail to realize that you do. It happens to everyone – myself included – all the time.

P.S. There is no sarcasm, there, either!

If that had been the only thing he did, I would easily still have accepted an apology—not that he would have sincerely given one. Honesty and responsibility are simply not qualities he possesses.

Diarouga is top player and everything. But he does seems like a very cunning, self interest only type of character.

My point was: you don’t wanna talk to him, ok, that’s fine i guess, but at least you should read his posts on the forums simply because they are valuable information for the shaping of EP. I was disappointed when i saw your post where you were saying that you didn’t even want to read diarouga’s public posts.

Absolutely. I will read his input, in the beta forum; I simply don't intend to address him, personally. I try to be constructive and reasonable.

I have absolutely nothing else to say. Please refer to my previous posts, ITT.
