Speaking as a potential customer (Grimoire looks like a game I'd really enjoy and would gladly pay for and support), the hostility you show toward your potential audience seriously makes me reconsider the thought of pledging. I personally haven't been following the Grimoire internet drama over the years - at face value this game looks awesome and I greatly respect the amount of work that must have gone into it.
After all those years of hard work why drive away potential players of your game?
