I'll take a look at the contributions and then decide whether to warn.

@Rebu
What kind of edit? I didn't see it as report-worthy enough.

Adding powers & abilities that are based on visuals and game mechanics, putting false information into profiles (ex. DMC Nero), etc.Antvasima said:

From what I can see, this member hasn't changed stats or anything. They've simply been going around adding categories and abilities. I can't comment on the accuracy of the latter as I am not familiar with the verses in question.

He didn't edit the stats, yes.
Maybe a warning should do this time? The last official one was made by Darkanine several months ago.

A minor warning should be enough. This member doesn't appear to be a vandal or something and seems okay overall.

False information? Aren't we already clear regarding Nero's edits? you accepted those, yet you reported me like it was some kind of a very bad behaviour, you could have argued with me back then and I will gladly hear it.RebubleUselet said:
and yeah, I don't have any intentions to vandal any pages here, but okay I will be more careful to not hurting or create more misunderstanding with the other member here. Thank you.

I was referring to your edits on his character and Devil Bringer shenanigans.
But we shouldn't talk about this here.

I just noticed that Kep is blocked across the Fandom,did anything happen?

Perhaps this is a good time to ask that our lovely members be careful with what they say. Even when quoting others? I'm not a fan of this overly sensitive culture (it starts to distort one's ability to express oneself clearly, let alone freedom of speech), but it's as they say... "better to be safe than sorry".

Well, I have been told that Kepekley was banned for quoting a Discord member's offensive opinion word-by-word. This included using the n-word.
I am trying to tell them that this is not at all representative of his own opinion, that he has gone far above and beyond what can reasonably be expected of him to help this community, and that they should please reconsider and show mercy in this case, but have not received another reply yet.
Anyway, I think that ignoring the context, intent, and personal background is extremely dangerous for Fandom as a whole, as it creates an environment of fear to say anything wrong whatsoever, no matter how hard you have worked to help out.

I'm glad you pointed out that last part, Ant. It doesn't matter if he contributed or not in this case. Saying that quoting a racial slur makes you racist is like saying every American History teacher who has read a historical document aloud is racist.
That is an astronomically idiotic statement and honestly if Kep's ban isn't reversed I'm done. I don't want to support a platform that is stupid to the point that they say context doesn't matter.

It should be noted that bots aren't quite as smart as the actual people managing it. Bots are programmed to take action when they see just one out of context word. I'm sure Kep's block will be lifted before too long like ALRF's or Iapitus's were. Also, I don't even remember him actually saying the N word out loud, but it's just a quote as is the mental illness slur.
Still this isn't a chat thread. I agree that Fandom should lighten up their standards, but we still need to be extra careful regarding what we post or upload directly to Fandom. The complaints should preferably be taken up to Fandom themselves.

It isn't a bot block. It's a manual Staff member block. I don't want to discuss too much of this as per Ant's advisory, but I don't want this misinformation to spread.

"Do not derail the Rule Violation Threads with irrelevant nonsense or internal disputes. It is solely for making serious, warranted reports of violations of the Site, Discussion, and Editing Rules, and not for discussion or side comments. Such posts should preferably be removed by the staff, and if a member continues to derail after being repeatedly told to stop, this will result in a temporary ban."
People are really oblivious.

I also don't want to be overly on guard, but CynicalWeeaboo has just been generally snide and argumentative about the drama recently

I'm merely voicing my opinion. If I seem smug, its because I am. But that shouldn't negate my ability to speak out. Aren't we all currently going through a "free speech" crisis? Would tone policing really be something you want?

I feel that while CynicalWeeaboo can act a bit sassy, he hasn't done anything banworthy. I also think there have been some good points he's made and that we need some criticism to improve and not remain in a bubble.

Please don't be offended by this, but you could have easily resolved this matter with him on his message wall. There's too much stress around (I'm stressed just reading this stuff and I have no clue what happened), and this thread has become way too displaced from its purpose.

@Sera @Yobobo @Professor @Cynical
It's been said before and again, this isn't the place to discuss that. I've removed irrelevant comments.
Sera, you should post that as a seperate thread, it was well-contructed, and I think more people need to see it, but I've removed it from this thread.
