As soon as Wish and Aurara challenged Hyrist to a synced Level 75 parse, he must have hurt himself backpedaling as hard as he did. That's the problem with breeding poor ideas without a critical eye in an insular place like the Alla RDM Forum - most everything falls to pieces when exposed to reality and the scrutiny of outsiders. Even Starfox's revered parses immediately fell apart when examined.
And when a prominent melee RDM enthusiast was challenged to substantiate that forum's viewpoints in the real world (so to speak), he backpedaled hard enough to make heads spin. The oft-cited belief that 'a melee RDM can do 80% of the damage of a top-tier DD' is an incorrect belief based on Starfox's flawed parses, and Hyrist knows it. Even Starfox himself would be decimated in a fair parse against real DDs. He is clearly avoiding the inevitable - he must admit that he is wrong, or he must honorably face Wish and Aurara in that parse and be proven wrong.
Choosing not to log in is simple avoidance, and I say that as a not-quite-casual-but-not-quite-hardcore players who spends at least half his logged-in time AFK and attending to other matters.
