+ | While McIntosh refrained from specifying his reasons for leaving the production, another post on his Facebook page just two days after Peters posted about perks seemed to imply the source of his disappointment: | ||
+ | |||
+ | > Had an online friend really screw something up to their detriment and all they can do is blame other people for it on their Facebook posts, when it's clear that they own that one completely. Heck, I've screwed some things up in the last year... but I own that. Sure, it's easier to blame others, but it's flat out dishonest when someone doesn' | ||

+ | Mcintosh confirmed, "[I] am no longer involved with the production in any way. … I'll remain a member this group and the fan group, since I'm a proper donor, too." | ||

+ | In a Facebook post the following day, he detailed the current status of the Ares Digital platform as he left it: | ||
