I know mage didn't kill AW and EA did. I still boycott EA to this day.
IMO, everything I said about mage was/is true. In my mind all I recall about him was his pompous, arrogant, power monger mentality. The dicktator of AW, is what I remember him as.
I don't agree with many of the choices made in AH, but its very obvious, it is by no means a dictatorship.
Just my opinion.
