I feel that the "defend the GMs" posts aren't really necessary, and can in fact be just as harmful overall as any post that criticizes us. We don't need defending, and more importantly we *want* people to speak up if they disagree with something. They'll be less inclined to do so if a gang of defenders rises up every time a criticism is voiced.
Know that this wasn't intended to be a "defend the GMs" post as much as it was an attempt to point out a particular pattern that I saw ruin a potential for a bunch o' fun.
But - I'll keep to myself. I wanted to put this out here in the hopes that it may have prevented something.
I don't think he meant you specifically, but just generally that having a ton of people post in `defence´ or just in support of GMs or any idea could have a bad effect since people might be less inclined to come up with new stuff or criticism, and instead just keep it to themselves, heh. Anyway, I think Krent nailed it, so don't anyone dare trying to post about him being wrong, 'cuz then we'll have to send the Gestpo on your ass.*
