@Korabiv
It was never said in any thread that he would never return, however it was said during one of Zojaks streams. Sorry that I can't reference it as I don't watch ppl play games, but it was referenced that ( I believe it was ) Vroom answered a question during that stream and said he won't return.
The troll joke by Cinco (if memory serves) was that Exavior is eternal because players won't stop making threads about him,
not that he would return.
