This wiki has the potential to be highly ranked through the community that we have. I saw that with the new Club Penguin Island game, people are up in arms against Disney and quite frankly aren't helping anyone. The original was way better sure, but the fans don't see the potential of innovation once their favourite thing is shut down for something new. It is in my opinion, wrong to hate a developer over a path they take with their product, unless they choose to completely ignore and disrespect their fan base. Digital Legends is not a bad company, because they still try to please their fan base through the content they produce. This innovates the early concepts introduced into the game from the very beginning. So please, keep whatever negative thoughts you may have on Digital Legends to yourself, so we can aim to improve the reputation we have here on this wiki. Our goal here was to provide the highest quality of information possible on the game Respawnables for the public to use to their gain. We made this as a non-official Respawnables Wiki and look how far we have come as a community. Banning should not be practiced, and should only be considered for the utmost extreme occasions such as a vandaliser. I personally want to see our community continue thriving and if we establish common interests we could, as a group, help out on other wikis or establish more in the future where needed on other games. Just a suggestion, but I feel our community could do that. Thank you for reading. Interesting thoughts. But our wiki still has a bad average due to the terrible events that happened in the past (Blitz mainly) and the fact that we had multiple leadership changes in a short amount of time, not even mentioning the outstanding amount of people that got banned.

Please quickly read through this massive thread: http://respawnables.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:120671 you will see what I mean by "bad average"

I know it comes out of no where but since i had that chat with a staff member about 3 weeks ago it reminded me that we need to make certain changes in policies. I know that since this incident the wiki is monitored maybe not daily or weekly but it is still monitored and if something like this happens again or if we get in a major argument with the devs (because of Blitz) of the game we document and advertise then this might mean severe punishment like wiki being deleted and our accounts being terminated. Hell that happened to Nature and he didn't do half of that so its definitely a likely outcome if this happens. Now i'm not saying it will but we must find ways to prevent this from happening because if something of the same scale happens again then we can say goodbye.

The reason Blitz got out as the good guy in the eyes of the staff and not us (even tho he clearly was the problem) was because he played the defenseless victim who had no way to defend himself, he played sneaky, tried to do things behind our back and it actually worked. How could we have been more successful? Because although we won it came for a serious price that some of us here aren't aware of. We could have lived with Blitz and his dictator behavior but that still would have brought our average down. And if we had banned him stone cold from the start that would count as bad leadership so we would have lost something anyway.

All of this to say that we need to have a plan to prevent this from happening again. I know Lord that you have lots of ideas so please if you have any feel free to tell me because that Tribunal idea is not the best and only covers a small amount of the problem. I know we're not facing any dangers right now but like i said its just for security purposes so please share your thoughts.
