It's amazing that a bunch of fanfic writers who have repeatedly stolen Kubo's concepts/our images, then turned around and whined about his and our work have the audacity to tell us what we should consider canon. That's a special kind of arrogance.

But by all means, keep howling into the void. We've been at this for, what, a couple years now? Hurling insults and making claims that you would definitely totally run this place better than we would will only serve as more evidence atop the pile of how pathetic you all are.

The interesting thing here is that everyone else has been perfectly civil. PorungaBot may have been a bit aggressive, but he kept it in line without hurtling insults. And the others have made valid points without devolving into what you just did, Xilinoc. The only thing I can see in that response is a simple case of "we can't refute what they're saying, so we'll instead directly attack them", which isn't how you handle any kind of an argument. It's ugly behaviour, and I do think we should all strive to behave beautifully, especially if we're trying to settle this little debacle.

You all clearly have no interest in listening to people who have incredibly valid points to make. Which means that this shouldn't have even been opened up as a thread, but instead a proclamation to the entire wiki that you simply have no intention of listening to anyone but yourselves. Everyone is here because they care about Bleach, in one way or another, and we have points to make. But if you're going to just refute them without paying any heed, then this may as well be a dictatorship.

You're all very set in your ways, and I do believe that is best amended, and forthwith. Wikis are not set in stone; policies can change, if only those who make these rules and regulations are open to realising that they are not the end-all-be-all.

I don't want to see this thread closed because people have to defend themselves from being attacked by this wikia's very staff for simply making a point. These light novels are important, far more so than uploading hundreds of images, as GokuBlack said.
