What if the question is the following: Would the community react the same if this happened to a few "randoms" rather than people who contributed a lot?

Of course the difference is that people condemn bias based on skype friendships because "muh morals" but at the same time people usually value contributing members more than "randoms", and not without reason, because those members kinda worked for being valued more than those who didn't.
I can see the point, but randoms usually are randoms because their contributions or efforts or whatever it makes them not to be randoms are not present.

You can stress out that those who were banned had friends standing up for them who may have not stood up for "randoms", attempting to persuade by implying bias and achieving the wanted result by that: people discredit attempts to defend the convicts based on alleged bias and thus agree with the decision of the staff.
Or you can stress out that those who were banned did a lot for the well-being of the community and the server both in-game and forums, more than any "random" people, attempting to persuade by implying value and achieving the wanted result by that: people condemn the bans for their alleged damage and disagree with the decision of the staff.
There is no more single truth in play when ways of communication can shape or divide the public stance on the subject this well. Because who says they weren't liked? Who says they weren't valuable? The two can easily be linked with eachother as well, rendering any side of the arguement no better than the other.
Perhaps only the evidence allegedly supporting the decision can answer our queries.
It has been a week now. Why do you even still care. The bans are not PERMANENT, no bans are anymore as we are so scared to lose activity. These people haven't been removed from the server. Go back to playing the game. Nothing from this has any influence on the majority of the server. The fact that the dev team is using this bullshit as an excuse to strike is sickening.
