Your lucky, I lost my temper and needed a 5 minute break at Bya to stop myself snapping at them, so I got critism for "walking out" of the tread without talking to people. What can one do, when you want to hear peoples' feed back on the wikia and a jerk is ranting off, your going to snap at them, I just have no patience for Bya.

I could rant on too about Hentai but honestly, I'm tired of this one by now. Actually when I looked at Hentai's edits, "improvement" wasn't amongst the stuff he did to the page when he was here so that was his opinion of his own actions. No different to what he shockingly accused us over. We don't want to govern VO at all, heck I had my post deleted where I stated "why would I be a admin/mod at VO". Good grief, I quit Beaucrat here because I couldn't take stress let alone manage a forum like VO. Honestly? I consider myself untrustworthy of any power, I tend to be a real bitch myself when I want to.

And again... Why do those guys insist we don't like critism? Its not that... Really, its just incorrectness amongst their critism and lashing out we dislike. The latter being a serious issue, because half of them do it without understanding the "why" behind what we do. Hngh... We just don't have that many problems with other communities and I ignore blogs where the members rant their heads off too because really? A blog is PURE opinion and what do you expect? I've heard some of them say muich worst on their own personnel blog, but I've always ignore it because its their blog. Why bother harrassing someone's blog?

And honeslty... Most of us are relaxed, we're not even having a go at newbies who mess silly things up here, we correct them, give them help if they want and try to encourage them to continue so they can get better. Hence why we encourage things like changing of the examples videos. Its been years since I was a noob myself at wikipedia, but I never forgot how nervous things were. And more important, my experience at the one piece wikia led me to realise that when editors at wiki-sites come across a newbie they can be quite rude to them. This discourages newbies to continue to edit, which effects the wikia in turn. Compare it to a veteran forum of any kind, where members can be quite harsh and criticise newbies who don't learn within 10 seconds of signing up to be a veteran members. This kinda shakes some folks up.

I'm rumbling on though on the matter... Anyway, on any subject lot of people with the largest opinions tend to jump in to strangle people on forums, and VO honestly wasn't the worst example of it happening. That honour belongs to my old Beyblade fandom comarade in one of the other forums that rivaled the one I visited. Talk about demostrating group stupty at its finest. Though I was one of those who took part, I did not handle that (thank goodness). :-/
