I had no problem with him going back to NIN. Couldn't blame the guy for getting sick of waiting. That 01-02 lineup deserved to have their material released on their watch. Also take into account NIN released The Slip right after he joined. He accomplished more in one month than he did in 10 years with GNR. I was one of the fans who immediately said he was never coming back to GNR after The Slip was released. There was no reason to(there still isn't).
I could have handled his departure much better had someone other than Ashba been placed in that role. Axl couldn't have found a worse replacement if he tried. The Ashba choice only makes sense when in the context of taking it the nostalgia route. He scores a 10 on the wannabe Slash image scale but scores a zero talent wise and the possibility of bringing something interesting to the table. His only job requirement was standing there holding his guitar pretending to be Slash. Mission accomplished.
I have no doubt that members like Tommy couldn't stand the guy for many reasons. Tommy always wanted to do something with GNR, before and after CD's release. Seeing it going in that direction had to make him want to vomit and is probably one of the reasons his formerly harsh stance on Bucket lessened.

I'm lucky that I'm also a NIN fan, so it softened that blow.
