Hey folks-- this isn't a reprimand for anybody, and I don't want to discourage any discussion that's happening in this post. It's a public post, and opinions posted to it are fair game to be responded to by other players with feedback both positive and negative.

But because we aren't available to keep an eye on things here (I frankly don't like to discuss personal life details in a public venue, but because communication was brought up, it's important to mention that Mod Ieva is currently recovering from surgery, Mod Wolfy is visiting family, and we are literally not able to respond at length to anything for the immediate foreseeable future) tonight, I'm officially stepping in here just to firmly request that all parties involved be careful to keep things civil even while disagreeing with each other.

We all want the game to be a good environment for people to express their concerns in (which does include concerns about how other players voice their criticisms, both of each other and of us as mods), and there are a lot of important points being brought up. I can't be here personally to monitor how the discussion is progressing, so I'm trusting everyone to stay respectful.

Thank you!
