Better one potential dictator than two in a community this minute.

Anyway, this thing was dumb from the start. Aftermath: the bill isn't passing, and you probably know what you did wrong now. I try not to hold grudges, so if you're willing to move on from this incident Error I'm willing to forgive and forget this unnecessary warning point.

What if there're two dictators that dislike each other?

Aftermath? The poll still has three days and it would not take one vote to flip it to win/lose.
I'm wondering where the hell twelve members came from but meh still three days for more 'members' to show up.

Because twelve is about how many people are active at any given time.

Why you need to take it to "dictator" directions all the time ? Tiel, there is me and 5 other people (so much for your 2 people) that ASKED you politely to change name, why you had to make all that fuss about this simple request ? Just say "I won't", well get the point and leave you alone next time.

Tiel wasn't the one making a fuss here, or at least didn't start it.

Again, everyone would have changed back anyways and no further shits given if it wasn't for this thread. PMs are there for a reason people.

In this case a quiet request to those involved would have been a good starting point. But what can I say? none of us are ever going to do that.

Well, if everyone else is, I'm perfectly willing to move on.

And proto, it started as a quiet enough thread, and I feel it shouldn't have required escalation beyond about one page. But internet happens, so..
