The community was still learning whether it could trust Xai’s official voice after the announcement. A post made some people uncomfortable. The dispute concerned whether its wording belittled a subject they cared about, rather than a technical specification. The Night Watchman needed to hear the complaint clearly before deciding how to keep the discussion going.
The official account apologized publicly that day. It said it had not meant to make light of any subject; its intention had been to address a different frustration for players. The Night Watchman did not tell those upset that the matter was over. He kept the original post, the apology, and the group’s questions together in the discussion, asking which wording had caused discomfort.
The apology clarified the official intention, but it could not decide for the audience whether the tone was appropriate. The Night Watchman planned to pass specific comments about the wording to community moderators, so the debate would not rest on guesses about motives. How the official account would phrase things next remained to be seen.
