The lack of a comprehensive and organized response by any of the major groups involved -- the moderators, the mentors, the admins, [violet], Max -- and the responses of many individuals makes me concerned that the higher-ups will simply wait for the SC proposal to be defeated, and then point at that as evidence that the system works, ignoring the sheer amount of distress/emotion roiling the community and the headaches that this has caused everyone. In addition, the fact that this issue has been around for years, and pops up regularly, is indicative that something must change, to avoid more anger, outrage, and headaches overall. The status quo simply does not work, for that reason alone.
So we've seen individuals respond -- vague promises on behalf of the mentors (which I appreciate, and I love them, but their promises are vague), individual moderators responding with conflicting and personal opinions (which only adds to the confusion, especially as Mall shows no sign of remorse or guilt), and silence from the higher-ups. Lack of transparency will only lead to confusion down the road when -- or if -- any changes are announced or implemented, and if the situation is not resolved here and now, that same lack of transparency will only rear its ugly head in the next argument, six months down the line.
They've already done that. Literally none of the mods except Scolo have even mentioned anything about this once it blew up, and Scolo didn't even try to actually resolve the issue.
Scolo literally CAN'T do a thing about it. He and Mall are equal, and he cannot stop the Proposal or, really, do anything. Please do not use him to unleash your anger AGAIN, everyone. Also, a couple of other mods responded, but they also couldn't do anything. Only the higher ups and MANY, although not all, mods aren't responding.
