 ::::::::::::@Ace/R<sup>3</sup>: Ohh..(*''facepalm''*)..Of course. Thank you. || Ahh, I see.  So then, who's Shadow on this wiki?
 :::::::::::::THAT I don't know. [[User:Rex Ronald Rilander|Rex Ronald Rilander]] ([[User talk:Rex Ronald Rilander|talk]]) 12:18, 1 February 2017 (PST)
+:::Okay, gonna address this a few points at a time, and clear up some misconceptions.
+*The splintering was handled with a three-week leadup, with clearly stated requests from the rest of the party. It was not abrupt or uncommunicated in any way.
+*The name "Oblivion" was chosen because Oathkeeper and Oblivion are the two main Keyblades. It had no other meaning besides being a Kingdom Hearts pair-partner name.
+*The split was not about being inactive. As stated multiple times in the chat, the split was because all of the other members agreed that they wanted to be in a party where everyone used Messenger, and those who were split off had stated they didn't want to be in a party where everyone used Messenger. We took y'all at your word.
+*As far as who performed the split -- that was the entire rest of the party. Chaineh was asked to be an anchor in order to set up Oblivion, but he did not perform the kicks and in fact had no role in this other than sacrificing the Weekend Raid time for most of that Saturday. The kicks were performed by those remaining in KHWV.
+*Communicating during raid boss fights was the exact issue that made the party require Messenger, and we've in fact been clearly communicating why it is necessary since the first Raid Boss event with Queen Bee. The fact that despite that continuous restatement of why communication is necessary problems were ''still'' frequently occurring, leading to many party members quitting or informing the core members of intention to quit, is the exact reason the in-game chat was insufficient.
+*Disgruntlement with the lack of attention to raid boss requests started long, long before we absorbed the other party. Without naming names, the ones most hurt by the lack of communication were actually in the KHWV party since April. The newcomers were not, in any way, the ones expressing hurt, requesting a solution, or even performing the actual administrative steps of setting up the branched parties.
+:So, in light of these:
+*If that's what Chaineh exactly stated to you guys was the reason for the split, I'll talk to him. It appears his message was combining the two reasons people were split off that day -- (1) the not wanting to be in a Messenger party, and (2) the normally scheduled purge of anyone inactive for over a week. However, KHWV Oblivion was only set up for those belonging to (1) -- those in (2) were supposed to simply be retired, and renewed if they began playing again (like Rikki). Phrasing it in the way depicted here was inaccurate and unnecessarily hurtful.
+*Claiming that, after a week of continuous explanation about when the deadline is, then continuing with reminders two weeks ''past'' the deadline, the split was "sudden and abrupt" really feels like the concerns of the party members who wanted to use Messenger were minimized and outright ignored, which ''really speaks to the problem'' of why the in-game chat was not sufficient. There was nearly three weeks total dedicated to "how can we get on board with this", "if people aren't getting on board we really need to get the split set up so everyone has time to settle into new parties", "okay this is literally the last possible day we can do this and I have several people screaming at me why are we dragging our feet on this".
+*We want you guys to have fun. It was made clear in the in-game chat that y'all didn't, at least at the time, want to be in a party that required use of Messenger -- we accepted that, and we encourage y'all to play the game the way you want to. If y'all decide you ''are'' open to using Messenger, we'd love to have you back. But if y'all decide that's something you want, we need y'all to understand that Messenger ''is'' important to those currently in KHWV Oathkeeper or whatever we're calling it now. It's not simply something people feel whimsical about -- several members have explicitly stated that they will leave KHWV if it stops using Messenger.
+*We've saved a list of every player who's ever been retired/split, so we can give you all those ID numbers if you'd prefer to keep your non-Messenger party. Again, we wish all of you the best of luck with the game, and we hope you can play the way you want to, whether that's with the other wiki players or not.[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] ([[User talk:KrytenKoro|talk]]) 10:43, 2 February 2017 (PST)
