As was done with Wynn, effort should have been made remove those trouble makers. It feels an awful lot like this was the plan all along given it's something people in charge have been trying to do repeatedly.
Wynn's case was an extreme situation because he was literally breaking the site. They can't simply "remove" the troublemakers because the
entire point of Wild West was that
it had no moderation aside from removing any porn, illegal content, or site breaking. Do you not remember the response to Wynn's Pub Club being revoked??? People were going all "Well if they can just
revoke Pub Club like that then
what else can they do???"
Just as Lack has said, Defy holds the keys, they could turn this place off tomorrow, that doesn't mean they should.
Likewise, just because the mods can remove the wildwest, despite us already having a vote and saying "No", doesn't mean they should.
"Just because you can doesn't mean you should" isn't a compelling argument in this case.
Defy holds the keys, they could turn this place off tomorrow, that's their choice and whether or not they
should is a matter up for debate that involves details us regular users don't have access to. The mods
moderate the forums, stuff like this is literally their entire bloody job, and just because the users said "We want this!" doesn't mean the moderation team
has to abide by it to infinity and beyond. There are limits to things, and whether you like it or not a limit has been reached, and this limit is not and will not be dictated by the common user. This forum is not a democracy. That the moderation team allowed users to give their input months ago was a courtesy to us.
