It's a lesson not only for people who apply for the small essemble, but also for people who head the project. If the head of the group doesn't act proffesionally and reacts to different opinions like an angry child, any project they are in charge of is pretty much doomed. Van's comment about the white knight is noted, as when I spoke out about Jewel I had this happen. Look back at what happened to me and see why I was afraid;

While I admitted in the follow up blog that I did go too far and should have had some tact with my words... If this is what happened to me I could understand if this happened elsewhere. The impact was I was too afraid to be seen not supporting Planty because of the overwhelming response I received to just speaking ill of Jewel. I even had Planty having a go at me for being so paranoid.

If this was a joke, it wasn't funny. If this was to highlight the problems of XSY, it still meant he did something illegal and used cracked Vocaloid. Which means... Either way... Planty didn't do the right thing even if it was meant to be a innocent warning. :-/
