Additionally, I do have my side to share about the banning incident and the Fun and Games removal.

The week I was banned was already going stressful. My chickens were dying, I was being tired out by work, all that stuff. I needed a place to vent on the wiki, but there was no venting channel. Where else could I have gone besides General where I could let off some steam?

And now my arguments for roleplay removal here:

1. Vote Location. Forums and Blogs are often checked, but Discussions are not. The staff team put the vote there, and only nine people knew about it. If it were put on Blogs, it would have been more noticed.

2. Ease of Switching. Discord is not a good place for roleplays. On the discord server for the wiki, only one roleplay channel exists. This greatly hinders roleplaying, as seeing past roleplays is hard and it can easily become a mess, as only one roleplay may go at a time and therefore, switching is forced. On Discussions, multiple roleplays can occur at once and people can jump into a roleplay they like without disrupting other roleplays.

3. Ease of Notifications. Discord only notifies of all channels on a server as one. Discussions allows for you to check which notification is which.

4. Message mentioning. On Discord, you cannot mention a message without copying it. On Discussions, you can quickly hyperlink the message of choice without need for copy-and-paste.

5. Inflexibility. While not related to roleplay location, the proposal is overly rigid and denies a second chance for fun and games. This is not fair because, as earlier mentioned, only nine people voted and the proposal closed too soon.
