Isn't it kind of unfair to give a warning to someone when they didn't even mention that they wanted Orihime dead? All this user said was that they wished Orihime would get stuck in Hueco Mundo (which would insure Ichigo and Rukia never get together cause Ichigo would be trying to rescue her again) or she needs to be out of the way which can mean way more than wishing for her death. Just because I'm commenting does not mean I agree with this user (I believe Orihime is essential to Bleach, and I like her character even if her Kurosaki-kun is annoying), I just think its a bit harsh to criticize a user especially if you want more users to contribute. If they believe admins, or senior users are criticizing or sounding smug then they won't return. This is just a thought, I realize all you users that have been on here a long time and are admins and committee members have a lot of work to do (and I understand it can be frustrating), but being over critical of a users comment is not a way to promote a site, especially a public-wiki site. There are some users who do deserve to be reprimanded, but bearing down on every new user or rookie user (which I've noticed happens a lot) is not the way the site should be run. All users should follow the rules and contribute (and not vandalizing or just give opinions) but when a user makes a comment that self reserved I've noticed a lot of the admins are too overbearing, you all act as if this site is the Holy Grail, where in fact these articles cannot even be used as a reference in a professional report. As a medical student in my spare time or on my breaks I frequent the site and notice that a lot of you are on quite often, this says to me that you are very dedicated to the site, which is good but it also tells me that this is an outlet where a lot of you like to power trip rookie users. Like I said I am a medical student with one year left so I don’t have the time to contribute very much to the site but I do enjoy reading the articles so that I may catch up on Bleach (and for those of you saying well you had time to write this so you have time to clean up an article, well I say to you after 10 hours of working with cancer patients writing a comment to express my concerns is much easier than fixing grammar.) I just think it would be a good idea for the senior user on Bleach wiki to be a little more welcoming and less judgmental toward the less experienced users, and I know I’m not the only one that feels this way. I know some of you are going to feel negatively towards me after reading this, please realize I am not judging you harshly, I understand some users are extremely difficult and I’m not saying give them a free pass to wreck the site, I am just saying lay off of those whose mistakes aren’t so bad and quit giving them smug attitudes, because all that does is tell them is all you do is watch anime and spend your whole days on the computer and it make them dislike you more and they will continue doing destructive things. My apologies for this comment being so long, I did not expect to go into this as much as I did. If any of you are extremely upset for me writing this, then just leave a message on my talk page. I just felt this had to be said. Thank you.
