To Spike and the admins:
Can't say enough, what a big deal it is that you were willing to reverse yourself on your ruling.
And I dont mean taking back how you decided the first time(bc you did the right thing there too), but LOOKING at new evidence, and allowing that there may be a new glitch or grey area that has been brought to light. This encourages me more than it should, considering I dont even play that game.
Coming back to the table to review further evidence, shows your willingness to be objective, and
that is valuable above all other traits in an admin staff.
That alone should be evidence that even The *Damn Admins DO care about not only protecting the players in their league, but the fairness factor as well, which is JUST as important.
Ill be the first to say that that first video appeared awfully incriminating, and i encourage some words of support to these guys for sticking to what they believed in the face what appeared to be PROOF to the eyes of many, considering the fierce opposition to their ruling. The willingness to do the right thing should tell you something positive about this staff, and their willingness to do the right thing when new info came to light.
Cannot have been an easy thing to do, considering the venomous spew found on both sides of this issue.
I hope =US= understands this in principled terms, and holds no hard feelings becuase it means that they would get that same protection if they found themselves at the mercy of a team or players that hacked against them.
Publically or privately, (if you posted on either side of the issue)
please make some acknowledgement to the admin team of SOME sort
in appreciation for considering your appeals...im sure a quick note will go a long ways...
And NOT just for absolving Rabbit, but for being fair in the end.
And if you were unnecesarily negative, you might consider an apology on par with the one the admins handed you...meet them halfway.
I better not see any "told you so" bs either....let this resolve on a hi-note.
