Wow, the St. Patricks Day topic got a serious chunk taken out of it. Why would they take out something like that? The only reason I can think of is that they don't want to draw attention to Dhelayan or his illegal shard, be it positive or negative. (I don't know why they decided to moderate it when the shard was getting negative attention though).
Just to clarify some of my positions:
On CrisGer saying that we need to "call for people to be thrown out “for the good of all” -
I highly disagree. I don't think we should silence anyone in the community, regardless of what position they have, be it pro-cyan, anti-cyan, or somewhere in the middle. I myself may not agree with a lot of people who don't like Cyan, but I do highly appreciate a lot of things they do for the community in terms of fan content, tools, tutorials, and things like that. To have people silenced on either side is not the way to go at all.
On what Veralun said about "Dialogue" - I'm hoping he misused the term and should have said something like insults or something like that (I am NOT making any accusations about anyone here!), but if he actually meant to say dialogue is not to be had on the MOUL forums, that makes no sense to me. What's the point of forums without dialogue?
I must say though, there are a lot of extremes on both sides, from people who will hate Cyan no matter what they do, to people who will worship Cyan no matter what they do.
I think if everyone in the community could find a way to have a balance between those two, a way where we can respect Cyan and at the same time, do our own thing, the community would get along a lot more.
(I'd love to see some type of checks & balances system if at all possible)
Just my two cents.
