What do you think I've done? Me and the GMs are on good terms, I assure you. As for discord, well if it's coming from a new account with a newly created email address, there's not much you can do but refuse DMs from all people not on the friends list. Imagine having someone fishing and proding for your other online accounts simply because you weren't happy about the tank reworks, so you can get heckled off platform.

You've seen it. The insults, the joy people will take in deliberately aggravating other people, or going out of their way to misinterpret some pretty well established guidelines. We don't have moderators here to police inflammatory statements. We don't have community leaders who are going to advocate for us, because the "silent majority" will always be larger than us. We don't have frequent communications about the issues we really care about. And we are constantly surrounded by arguments, and accusations.

So, again. I don't blame anyone for not signing themselves up to be screwed with. It's really troubling after awhile. A nihilistic perspective is understandable.
