Here's a thought. And you can all complain to me if you think I'm wrong but I'm going to share it anyone.

~~How about the only people that get to say anything about the community are the ones that actually contribute to it? Just a suggestion.~~

Since there was a misunderstanding of what I meant, I'll clarify.

I am not in any way trying to tell people what they can and can not think or say. I am simply asking that if you don't, in some small way, contribute to the community you really shouldn't complain about how things are. Yes, it is your right to do so, but if you don't try to change things, all you're doing is complaining. And also that maybe it would be nice to consider other people's feelings before calling them names in an open forum. And that, if you insist on insulting people, you put it under a filter so that only those that wish to read what you've written have to see it. That's all.

	Ah, but you see, the one causing the problem isn't even human. And he's not the only non human that acts the same way. So by saying it's a human right, you only prove my point, not dispute it. Okay, so I will start sharing my opinion of each and every person on this island whether it actually effects me in any way simply because I have the right to do so. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't know what you're talking about. Elodin is as human as everyone else. If that's what you want to do, then do it. It's your popularity at stake, and I'm not going to tell you that you can't. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	But you admit that venting your frustrations to an open network has a negative effect on the community. So you've only proven my point further. Have a nice day. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I said nothing of the sort. Perhaps you should read a bit closer? I said that it could have personal ramifications to you, not to the community. You have no point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It must be nice in your little world. I hope you enjoy it there. Because it seems that in your world you can't understand that me losing my popularity means making people angry with me. That, in and of itself, has an effect on the community. Or maybe I'm the only one that sees it that way.

I think I'm done talking to you now because if I don't stop now, I'll end up wasting a whole bunch of time saying the same things over and over and over again.

Strange, that's exactly how I feel.

Let me put it in smaller words, that maybe your brain will understand.

So today we say that Elodin can't speak his opinions to the network because we don't like them. Because Tony Stark thinks that it hurts "community." Well, how about tomorrow we say that Person X can't post to the network because, oh, I don't know, Tony Stark happens to disagree with them about their choice of football team. Then so and so can't post because their opinion on childbirth hurts the "community." Then, after a year or so, I suppose that Tony Stark will be in charge of the stasi. Doesn't that sound fun?

	You're completely misunderstanding what I'm saying because you choose to. Go see things your own way and have a nice life. I am literally done. I will not respond further. (Reply to this) (Parent)
