Yes, because a vague plan to possibly get more moderators (which I most certainly have no beef with in and of itself) hinted at by two co-moderators who are only passing on what they heard, without any explanation by the Shrapnel staff themselves about what way they intend to go with the forum (If, in fact they do actually want to make changes, and aren't just organizing some window dressing) nor any explanation* about their reasoning in this debacle is certain to reconcile all the malcontents after years of neglect and/or open disagreement. Yep, that should work. And the number of complaints falling off is undisputable proof of it, and nothing to do with any feelings of hopelessness and/or arguing with a stone wall.


* Note that:

1) I don't mean to disrespect Edi's nor Llama's posts, in fact I was quite happy with them, but neither had anything to do with the bannings or knew what was actually going on. And

2) I don't actually expect any statement from Shrapnel staff to actually be helpuful in any way, though I'm allways ready to be pleasantly surprised. In fact the one thing they appear to have learned from the Sombre debacle is that trying to defend their actions only makes them look worse.
