If that's true, Port's gotta' be shitting themselves. As must other whales who have invested.

No way. The Mad Hermit has been a big name in SotA for a long time now. That thread no longer exists though, so I'll have to take your word for it.

My memory is cloudy around the subject, but Envy caused a bit of stink with his videos. Partial reason for TMH's exit could be community.

I don't think he'd leave in a huff over Envy's videos. I thought I saw him post somewhere there that there were no hard feelings and that he enjoyed Envy's videos as well. He seems a nice enough guy. Back when I was excited about the game, I used the tool he created that allowed you to walk around the homes via the web back when the game was only up on specific backer weekends.
The game and community will be worse without him. I don't think he'll be gone completely. I suspect he has other accounts (who doesn't have multiples over there honestly). $4,800 is a lot of money to have invested and its possible he simply found a better use for those particular funds, not a reason to abandon the game entirely. Still, the fact that people are finding better uses for their money isn't exactly a positive thing, whether they are leaving the community or not.

When asked if it was one of multiple accounts, he stated it is "the" pledge. Seems to be leaving the game entirely.

First, I'm not surprised he's selling. He hasn't made a SotA video for months, and I used to follow all of his videos and I'm subscribed to his channel. Even if there was hard feelings with Envy doing videos, Mad Hermit is too principled to air the publicly.
Envy makes terrible videos - nothing like the super professional and cheerful MH.
MH probably got shat on by Portalarium, just like Joviex, Blake, and so many others.
The whales are falling like flies. Notice that they begged Blake to stay, and all they can say to MH is "best wishes."

A lot of the angst and concern might be with the "growth" of the community, or the direction that it seems to be headed in. I already had concerns when I recognized some names from the Catskills RP community posting on those forums, but I done fucked up and backed anyway.

I actually think MH said a couple complaints about the game in the past, but I'm too lazy to google it.

I don't see blake's accounts listed for sale anymore on the player marketplace and the 'No Blackstone Bluff' post has been deleted from the forums as well. Its his prerogative, to be sure. Maybe he'll get some satisfaction that he wanted in the game in the first place. If so, its unfortunate it took the extreme of him leaving and at least putting many of his accounts up for sale to get that done.
Anyway, be well blake blackstone be it in Shroud or wherever.
