The released statement also mentioned the "return of the attorney fee award entered against Mr. Avellone in California." I don't think they could have mentioned that unless he actually got it back right away.

Anyway, I think people disliking Avellone should be aware of the whole story.

As you wish. I do think there's more context now to what happened, with stuff like this:

Dauna Bartley's witness statement in favor of Chris Avellone.

Dauna Bartley's witness statement in favor of Chris Avellone.

He didn't apologize for wrongdoing. He apologized for his break-up with his former girlfriend, who was friends with his two accusers.

I hope you can look at the witness statements, like this one from someone who was actually from the same friend group.

Don't you think that turned out to not be the case?

Tfw you realize we're just actor entities on a server for a Minecraft-like game run by a 12 year old in the dimension above ours.

I've tried it. It's cool when it starts, but within a few minutes I'm feeling the nearby ladybug's leg pain and the itch on the grasshopper's mandible and the lives and deaths of the countless ancestors of this ant and...

Well, it gets a bit too much pretty fast. I prefer sleepfulness for sure.

Can't believe people are still into an influencer who hasn't posted in 80 years.

As long as it's not a redditor. Don't want some long-winded off-topic TLDR thing.

Maybe it's because they know he was slandered by friends of a former girlfriend who later retracted the accusations:

Honestly, getting your dad to use a tactical spoon might be a bit overkill. It's more for survivalists.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. There are just too many non-weirdoes on it.

Literacy was a mistake. People back in the middle ages couldn't read posts on social media and were much happier as a result.

Understanding this is true wisdom.

The next step is to game the system like David Mamet:

This is actually a really sad story to me because it shows how much effort it took to change her mind. Effort that very few other people will put in.

Still a great and insightful read though.

It's sad to have the clay soils limit your options like that.

Nice to see Gnosticism making such a big comeback. It used to be a really hipster thing.

What "changing nature of gamedev culture"? Do you mean Feargus' attempts to put his kids on the payroll after he already had his wife and his sister on it?

She's the one.

Also, she was in an open relationship with that boyfriend almost from the start.
