To honest, the conflict more or less became a heated subject until there was a problem when a bunch of people started using the rant topic to run the wikia down.

There were issues, but every 5 pages of rant... "Oh the wikia has done this wrong" or "the wikia is utter crap". This is where the "lies" came in, because people used to run off ideas they thought how we worked, and we ended up correcting them - alot. It occurs even outside the rant topic at this point.

Even I got fed up with having to do that and I tried to ask the mods/admins to stop it. "Freedom of speech/opinion" and all that crap got thrown at me. I explained, the putting down is not so bad, but some members are ALWAYS doing it, and on topic of it, they end up telling fibs about us i the process because as their not editors they don't understand us. By now more then one person here at the wikia "got it". Everyone thought I was against talking bad about the wikia, no, I was against talking bad about the wikia - while telling crap. As I said, at one point someone told us to pretty much shut up and take it...

Then there was the MF stuff, the hassle was MOSTLY headed by VO forumers...

So yeah, the clashes were, maybe still are, real. Many could be avoided by both parties. I'm not saying we're totally not without fault ourselves or that we don't cause some of the clashes, but VO forums, the way it works... People DO have digs at everyone "less then them" in the way of general Vocaloid knowledge. Sure we do that, but one of the foundations of this wikia is suppose to be about getting people to stop being too wrong. :-/
