Greetings.
The person who set these changes to HOT|NW diplomacy had already come forward to let us know he'd done it prior to this blowing into an issue. His willingness to let us know of his actions, to stand up for what he'd done and his prior history with our tribe have led us to believe he had no ill-intentions in setting these changes.
He was simply looking where all of the potential combatants were around his area and the tribe. Obviously leaving these in place wasn't the best move but it wasn't an intentional declaration of any sort by either him or HOT.
I will post an apology for saying whoever did it had "mental issues" as that was obviously a stupid thing for me to say. I'm not perfect nor a psychologist.
These facts were all considered in our disciplinary review. This member is a loyal and well-intentioned member of the Holy Order of Truth. The situation has been dealt with and we now consider the matter closed.

Supreme Commander of HOT
