While this is the most accurate, useful and best paragraph I've seen written this week and I've personally found any interaction I've had with Torque positive and professional.
To post a response to a softer soul calling a tougher character nasty after heated conversations in a
heated moment, in a public forum page to 200,000 potential accounts and in Yali's house, containing comments such as "steal my throne" and blaming the softer souls "delusional" actions on his "autism" and "depression" and stating you were "laughing all the way through the Q&A". Is firstly rude, upsetting to for example players who have children with Autism and have had to involve the police in cases of discrimination and bullying and harassment, and in some cases exploitation, including the UK cyber police in online forms. Also probably scarring for the softer souls development, I've personally in official jobs taken people down from a noose they tied themselves and met the mental scars of bullies of who helped tie this noose.
While it's equally not good for another human to hold a ruse Q&A to blast off about a tougher character giving a softer soul a hard time in heated conversations. One crosses a line too far blaming mental health publically, not for everybody, because we are all raised as children in families and learn how to socialise in schools and different families and schools have different ways, but for most who play here, have common sense, and some decency, lets be honest, its a 10 year old game, most of us are over 30 now. This public rude rage, deserves a public apology. Healing starts with forgiveness, ignorance fuels hate, judging by the population, many discords chats and ESO population tonight, many regular long term players are not expecting much, which is sad way to adapt to the new future.

People have been wisely given time out based on these rules because they have become too engaged and prone to heated moments, becoming a troll, Hao is a clear example here who perhaps thought he was irreplaceable, no-one is irreplaceable. If you meet this guy in the street you probably talk and he's nice guy, but too much time focusing on one thing can drive people crazy, he would not heal the hate and needed time out. I'm sure Torque is a nice guy and like most us reacts in certain situations, we all do this, but when you cross a line Torque be the bigger man of the 2, and not totally change, you are who you are, but admit, apologise and heal hate, don't fuel it.
