Hey Oliver,  

Look man, I don't know what you are trying to pull regarding the alttp community. You claim they 'constantly' try to put you down, 'de-fame' you or other things to that effect.  I think the entire alttp community knows that is not true.  You can see from the image comment on your youtube that you can run a search for your name in the alttp community discord and when it is mentioned it is usually talk of your strats or ability at the game (http://imgur.com/5lq2Cgg).  Nobody denies your talent or skill.  But you have basically conjured up this image of an evil collective community hell bent on controlling and manipulating you, and you preach this to your viewers in your stream.  This itself is not fair on the community, and you are only making it worse with this.  Sure there are some some speedrunners, as individuals, who don't like you.  But that's life, you probably don't like them either.  But if you want other runners to show you respect, you have to show them respect back, and not say they are bad at the game. 

I know you hate me, and think the community completely just accepted me back, but you are very wrong on that too.  I never asked to submit times to the leaderboards again, one of the speedrun.com mods just said that if I were to submit it would have to be live stream etc, so I submitted.  As for being 'put on a pedestal', the only people who I am in contact with, or who watch my stream are a few friends.  I was not welcomed back(was not expecting to be) so I left the community for good a long time ago.  I don't join the discord, I don't submit runs, and I don't do any races/tournaments etc.  I do still play the game because that is my choice and nobody elses.

I've seen your youtube video 'TRASHING the alttp community' or whatever it's called.  You make some assumptions about me and my life, so let me just be clear with you.  Speedrunning is a hobby for me, it was an obsession at the time I was hard grinding for 124, and even though it resulted in losing a few good friends from the community.  I'm not sorry it happeneed.  I am sorry for anyone getting hurt by my decision, that I did not intend.  The whole situation cured me of my obsession, the way it all blew up made me realise that this thing is just a hobby, and now I can keep it like that.  I steam now for fun, I speedrun for fun, and I could not be happier.  Life is good.

I watch your stream all the time, I love watching you run the game.  I've seen you in my stream a few times before, you are always welcome to say hi,  I honestly have no bad blood with anyone, always enjoyed chatting with you during races back in the glory days.  And I, and probably the alttp community (can't speak for all) are looking forward to you getting the record.
