Few people are having tunnel vision here. This wariness didn't just spring out because he missed a dateline or two. It's not even about his lack of communication, screenshots, updates etc. Unlike Luthier's old cult, I like to think the majority of people here are mature professionals with supermodel-like wives and children. The problem we have is we feel he doesn't care for someone who keeps hammering how much he loves aviation and simulation in those fund drive videos.
He was constantly on the bullhorn at the start of the Kick campaign but once he got what he was after, the first goal, his effort staved off. Remember that? Towards the end of the drive when it was apparent the campaign wasn't gaining much interest, many of the backers were practically begging him to rewrite his rewards and to add Paypal in the hope of attracting more backers. Remember the apology he made for disappearing after the first goal was in the bag? Oh dear, I'm just terrible at marketing and I was even scolded by people at ED; he reappeared to reassured his backers. Then there is that dark time where his staff was ill and one fell in the ice or something, something so there's not much to show. :D
I don't know...
