This thread was started about 8 days ago and there was some discussion after the OP, which I thought explained what was going on pretty well, the OP that is.
I also read some of the following posts, when it was only 2-3 pages long.
I was browsing the forum as I do occasionally and noticed that this thread is *still* going and I'm kind wondering why.
No, I haven't read the additional posts to the thread from the last time I looked, reading 11 pages worth = tl,dr.
From what I have seen on the last page, it seems the 'conversation' here is reasonable and mostly coherent, but it does seem to be beating a dead horse as it were.
As for Zed26's "Strong disagreements and arguments are fine and dandy." comment, I agree with that, however only as long as they don't spiral out of control, that is when things tend to jump off the rails.
Sometimes that sort of thing will lead to significant changes for the better, the world and indeed the server would be a pretty strange place if everybody agreed and never argued about stuff.
