Here is me, just minding my own business of telling the admins to ban some sock, editing stuff and generally try to be as passive as possible; and I am sure most of the users who commented on zambie's blog were doing the same thing I was doing. Then suddenly, the guy decided to make a blog as a threat to the community at large. He said that he could magically ban others because he belonged to some kind of mystic mafia organization or some stuff, and he has gotten an entire Death Note-style wiki to prepare for that process. And well, the community certainly didn't respond well to that.

Did the community have an actual reason to do so though? Of course they did, at least in my opinion. Generally speaking, we were all very tired of the constant "dramas" that disrupted the wiki ever one or two weeks, so we didn't want to see anything that can harm this peace anymore. Because of this, we became convinced saw zambie's blog as a direct threat to the community, and zambie himself a "whiny little baby" for trying to ban people for no reason; you need to remember, he is known to have threatened users before with the same reason. We made fun of him and told him to stop because he fired the first shots. Does doing so automatically makes anyone who commented on that blog a jerk who "constantly makes jokes about him", or "never gives him a second chance" or some stupid stuff like that? Of course not.

For whatever reason, I felt like Electric Pants' forum thread is not resolving anything in the end. Reading it, I feel like it's another direct insult to the community as it assumes that anyone who stepped foot on here is an idiot. I'm going to quote myself again because everyone on this freaking thread decided to not bother listening to me. And I'm going to continue doing this until things change.

I do not understand this at all. Why must I be punished because zambie decided to shove nonsense down my throat and ask me to retaliate? I tried to stay out of this mess before the blog was made and be friendly to the people on chat, because I know things are gonna be bad soon and I do not want them to happen. I did not "bully" zambie, but oh great according to Mr Pants everyone who was born should be automatically banned because they touched him now. "Oh look, another big boy thinking that he can do anything because somehow he has "power" on this wiki.  I do not care what kind of mysterious organization you belong to, you do not have such kind of power on this wiki: When you decided to join this community, you accepted to play by our rule, not yours."

Quote... That was the answer to your blog.
