also, I wish everyone got along with us -- and it's unfortunate that we need to waste time on threads like this debating against the handful of people who want to trash us for the small things they don't like about us.

we've tried really hard to make a great new place for the community to rebuild, but threads like this only serve to cause divides and waste our time. I'm super appreciative of all the positive responses we've got, but a "thank you" lasts 30 seconds in private, but a "screw you" lasts 4 days in public.

that was the reason we started deleting and banning. it was less time invested compared to these dumb threads... hopefully this one will resolve itself soon
i was hopeful we'd be done with all the random comedy bits going on, but helmet wanted to bring it back on topic.
