I get it, and I'm still not blaming them. My only real criticism is how things are being handled. I feel like I've seen this handled better elsewhere, but to be completely fair, I don't know how much staff this site has or funds. My best guess is that it's less than the other site. So again, I...
I accept that, and that's why I'm trying to stay positive. But there always has to be a conspiracy theorist to make sure emergency powers don't become perminent powers. ;)
It's not the mods' fault. I'm not saying they're doing anything malicious. It just feels like that is a path this could lead.

Well, I purged myself. And it's unlikely I'll find anything interesting to replace them with. Most of my avatar choices would be related to what I had already. It's a stark contract now to my main forum that gives almost full freedom on avatar but lacks some extra customization.
*sigh* I'm going to try to not get mad, but I am frustrated. Guess I'm going to have to get rid of my page banner too since it has young Link and Zelda. Suddenly my love of customization on this site is disapearing when you can't actually express what you want to...
I do want to qickly just say on the current issue, if the threat is mainly coming from the domain/server location, the stuff like this will unfortunately keep happening. I've been through a few site take down campaigns. Being on a domain so common as .com might not support stuff on this side...
