I too have a lesson for life, folks. In my academic pursuits, some of my research proposals got shut down by the seniors and experienced researchers for various reasons. If you are marching forward without taking into consideration valid criticism, it can end up in a poorly-cooked work that can get you expelled.
I hate to ad hominem but to me your opposition is the perfect example of insanity, as in, doing the same thing over again and expecting different results. Or you don't care about things staying the same, which is mostly decline over the course of years. So it only feels like insecurity causing people to cling to keeping things the same when it is not set up to be optimal for player activity. I see it as a weak justification to not try for more under the argument its to spare us fights or save rp. Its to save some people their easy RP monopolies. So claiming its dangerous is like being a discovery "doomer". A system clearly prevents a divulgence into chaos.
Again, not to attack the poster, but your concern with potential messiahdom seems to give away insecurity that you feel someone else may win some imaginary competition. I could make the same arguments in return for such strong opponents that may just be making it seem they are saving the server, but are only after saving themselves inconvenience at the expense of many others. This place has been caught in a vicious cycle for years. This concept shouldn't be so revolutionary, its not that crazy, we've just been too locked here for too long. Its like stockholm syndrome, like some advocate against having more freedom because they only know captivity.
So I'm not sad if you are offended by my efforts and feel emanciated by us messiahs. I consider myself more of a modern wizard actually, and the trolls here keep this place suppressed! Don't listen to them! Take up arms! Fight!
