I don't quite understand you, but since I have nothing against anything going on with the Moderating positions and privileges, I'll leave that alone.

You obviously don't know me very well (As I had imagined would be the case for a lot of people here), so I can't really expect it to come off any differently. The reality is that I just don't care for sugarcoating things, if you asked me to point out the flaws in anything on this or any other site (Including ones I do frequent) they would appear in the same fashion. It is not a subjective analysis I'm performing, I'm trying to keep it as objective as possible without infringing in an area that I don't belong.
My ideas aren't the only good ones, and as a matter of fact these changes are only half my suggestions in the first place. I did not recommend to Ralle to remove the images and links, he did that on his own. I did not recommend to Ralle to remove the staff colors, he did that on his own. Maybe you think I've been subverting everyone else here, but I've actually been having these "suggestion" discussions with Ralle in a rather public fashion over on THW chat. I've chatted with Brad, Hindy, Werewulf, Hakeem, Ghan, HT, Wyrmy, Ralle, Archebald (Archian), and Poot about it at some time in the past. So in reality, this is a cumulation of opinions that I'm presenting to you here, not one man's word against the world's.
Please, understand that I'm not on some 'high horse.' Pyritie threatened to ban me in the chat over my suggestions, claiming that I'm destroying the site. That's the attitude that has to go away -- Even if you don't know who I am or don't care, understand that I am not forcing anyone's hand here. If your admins didn't agree with me, it would have never gotten this far in the first place, that they did is their decision, one I subjectively think will make the site a better place.

No I don't know you, and I had no idea all that had taken place. I was merely stating how your post came across to me. It sounded more like you thought, or were, pushing things. If you indeed are trying to help, and taking into consideration our opinions, I'm all for it. Thanks for clearing that up.

If you don't agree with that analysis, then that's your opinion. You are entitled to it, as is anyone else, but ultimately it is the admins' opinions that get things done. We must place our faith in their decisions and trust that they've been doing this for a long time and know what they are doing.

This post overall sounds much better (than your previous). I don't really have anything against your opinions, or any changes, just your previous posts.
