For the record I will try to act as a mediary if requested, and I will try not to act rash, but I do agree with what John says, at least when it comes to Miraheze being community driven.
For better or worse, if anyone tries to turn Miraheze into a dictatorship I will be resigning my Steward rights and refusing to support the site as an Ops member.
That said I ask the community (Miraheze at large, and ATT users) to help resolve this issue as reasonably and quickly as possible, and with no volunteers leaving the project if possible.
Both John and Labster contribute a lot to Miraheze in different ways, and I hope that ALL USERS realize the project as a whole would be very negatively impacted if labster or John chose to stop contributing.
That said, I would like John and labster to work out any issues between each other and anyone else (DQ, anyone) in as peaceful a manner as possible, using intermediaries (please not me) if required to do so.
If this can not be resolved peacefully by themselves then I ask anyone (involved or not) to create an RfC on Meta wiki proposing alternative solutions (banning DQ, labster leaving, John leaving, any other ideas).
I will voice my personal opinion whenever I feel it needs to be heard but otherwise please believe that I have Miraheze and the communities best interests at heart.
In the spirit of full disclosure, I figured anyone here not aware of *the entire situation* should know that DeltaQuad and all socks were previously globally locked, and I initiated the process of unlocking one account on the understanding they were forbidden from having any other accounts. I really don't want to see any active users leaving, especially people that contribute to Miraheze as a whole and not just their wikis.
