If this is reflective of how you plan on handling app rounds going forward, then nothing has been solved. I had been considering apping here in the next round as I have several friends here that I'd love to play with, but if this is how you treat your applicants? I think I'll pass.

I do sincerely hope you reflect on this and learn something from your mistakes. Digging in your heels won't do you any favours. Best of luck.
