What happened to Wyrmstooth?

According to what I remember of the Reddit post he made before he deleted it, jonxor had lost his job and felt that Wyrmstooth would distract from retraining and updating his qualifications to maintain his employability. He said it was an extreme measure, but he felt he had no other choice. There was a subsequent one he made before it got deleted as well, but I didn't get a chance to read it.

ok, he lost his job and it was taking up too much time. FINE. UNDERSTANDABLE. what is unacceptable is the fact that he took sole propriety over an entire projects, albeit practically a legal social asset with a bunch of other cast members who could've taken over or a determined fan all together, either of whom could've been given permission to take control of his account and the project as legal social assets where the new account holder could've been dictated within guidelines set by the original author to maintain and update the project in a way and time that doesn't violate the direction the original author wanted to go, and above all, still giving credit back to the original author.

 

If that didn't work then, hell, since mod was so damn good, worse case scenario, he could've tried to sell licensing rights to the account and the project to Bethesda to try to incorporate it into actual lore of the TES franchise so he (AND THE OTHER PROJECT MEMBERS!!!!) could live off the royalties as they released it as an official mod with Skyrim Remastered $$$ Who knows, maybe the Falskaar team would've followed suite and we would've had our average 4 DLCs per Bethesda RPG like everyone wanted. Everyone would've won

 

tl;dr: So many different possible (but not guaranteed, yet still capable) lucrative and selfless options jonxor could've taken if he would've just thought it through, but must've got hacked and threatened to get swatted or drank some bleach, so everyone lost.
