Here is the response of Revanvolatrelundar for the whole community to read:
Thanks Nate for fighting my corner. I'd like to post this message as a full disclosure on the subject. I have always tried to remain as transparent as possible when it comes to my status on the wiki, and I think further clarification over accusations made about my behaviour is necessary.
The Cwej anthology started out as a publication of Andy Lane's imprint Slow Decay Books. At the time of the Dawns thread opening, as far as my knowledge went, this was still the case, so I took part in the debate without any kind of agenda. However, towards the end of the original debate, I did learn of the Cwej anthology's move to Arcbeatle, and when Fandom asked that anyone involved with Arcbeatle not participate in future threads, I followed their wishes. You'll notice from my edit history that I've made no contributions to the further two Dawns threads, as that would cause the conflict of interest from which you imply. At the time I could not divulge the reason for my silence on those threads, but with the announcement from Arcbeatle about the anthology I'm able to clarify things.
I have to say, I am disappointed this issue was first brought up on a public thread. By assuming good faith I would have expected the first questions about my involvement with Arcbeatle to come from my talk page. In future I'd like that to be where the discussion (if you feel there needs to be any) to continue, as I refuse to partake in the thread because of my interests with Arcbeatle.
Thanks
I would like to emphasise the following passage, "I refuse to partake in the thread because of my interests with Arcbeatle." What Revanvolatrelundar concealed in his response is that he silently went and deleted the traces of his participation in this thread, deleted his kudos. His actions make it appear that I was lying earlier stating that he had participated in this thread and present him as fully in compliance with FANDOM explicit instructions. Thus, to demonstrate this further deception on Revanvolatrelundar's behalf, you can find the screenshots of his now deleted kudos to the right. He did participate in this thread and then tried to cover up his participation.
I will respond to the contents of his message later.
