{{LapisScarab|time=08:22, August 2, 2010 (UTC)|text=I think your essay needs some updating, KKD. The Mirage Arena is alive and kicking now that it's been given time to grow and improve a bit. Sure, it's still improving, but no one's calling for its destruction anymore. The one part of your essay I really have a problem with is where you talk about a user bashing an admin one miute, and changing their tone once the admin comes on. Um, there ''shouldn't'' be user-bashing. It's bullying, plain and simple, and people ''should'' feel bad about it and be punished for doing so. They shouldn't kiss-up, but kissing up and being civil are two completely different things. Also, I think people are missing the "This is only a wiki" part of Kate's message. The walls o' text are getting really mellodramatic, comparing the wiki's workings to comunism VS democracy, etc. That's taking it ''way'' too seriously. Hyperbole and metaphors sound pretty, but a convincing argument they do not make.}}

{{Auror Andrachome|mad=Thats really hypocritical of you Lapis. You're one of the people that take it way too seriously, and seriously, Ninjasheik can fight her own battles so stop being nosy. It's what really grinds my gears! I've done some private talking with some users and god, this wiki has so many problems that myself and most of you choose to ignore. I have to be truthful and say that I try to stay on DoorToNothing's goodside to make sure I don't get banned as per Azul's request. But whatever, I don't feel like making a really long and pointless statement that will not benefit me.}}
