Going over the Megpoid English topic at VO looking for things we missed..

Sometimes 'I wonder if we should link to their topics in the info boxes, but I worry people might think our communities as related or we're assoicated with them.:-/

Reading the "who has used Pocaloid?" and seeing us be described "Draconian Law" because of our stance on the software makes me think its best not to link too heavy at times. Its not us, its wikia who won't let us too much, our own policy is just "promote Vocaloid". Our blacklist was 2012 and is long gone... All we do now is just not link to someone when Pocaloid comes up not to draw attention to them.

When you're doing research and this sort of thing comes up in the forum in the search results, its disappointing. I wish I felt like logging in to correct them... But it never works. And it just opens the door for more abuse as I've experienced in the past. Best leave alone. I've done so much to try and repair the drift by linking there on several occasion when we can't cover something, but then I see this and it makes me feel sad it has no impact.

Dracnion is still harsh... To be frank I'm nuetral on illegal software, always have been and I don't know if our admins/bureaucrat would allow it. It would go against our policy about creating a safe environment. I see adavntages to both sides of the argument, but emphasis to people if no one buys the product the product will not be invested in to begin with.

how do people feel on the linking topic?

I was considering altering info boxes today until I saw that, now I'm withdrawing any idea until discussion. When I couldn't find her topic without advance refinement,I just figured linking would make things easier. I don't know why it came up in the search (maybe Megpoid English is in a post around there). :-/
