** On the 15th of August 2023, at the end of a public blowup involving Tara Welker publicly accusing Martin and Team Four Star of enabling multiple abusive figures (which she later retracted for multiple reasons and apologized for), Martin [[https://twitter.com/yugiohtas/status/1691446144092803072 revealed that this incident was the culmination of an utterly vicious smear campaign by Blake Swift, aka ShadyVox]] for Martin cutting ties with Blake years before.[[note]]It turns out Welker had been manipulated by Blake to smear Martin and TFS by proxy, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14529246570A37099500&page=175#comment-4357 with the only reason TFS was roped in was because they made fun of him in Abridgimon episode 2]], which was incredibly spiteful considering they made fun of ''the entire abridging community'' with that video.[[/note]] This resulted in years of mental issues for Martin, and also is one of the primary reasons why he refused to reprise his role as Nylocke for the TOME series, amongst other things.

** On August 9, 2023, Martin revealed that his experiences with Creator/ChrisNiosi, as well as Blake Swift (the latter of whom was in fact ''orchestrating a smear campaign against Martin'' in private channels over Martin cutting ties with him previously) made his role as Nylocke on Niosi's TOME series a "traumatic experience". It was at the point where he outright refused to reprise the role for the video game adaptation, [[RoleEndingMisdemeanor quit professional voice-acting]] and only agreed to voice a minor character Sir Maximore in hopes of the original cast returning in some capacity, which did not happen.
