I don't like drama, even though people often have to tell me to be careful where I shove my muzzle. Well, to be honest I am really shocked with the fact that a thread about drama is highlighted, but after I started reading through the replies, I got rather relieved, and decided to leave one too. As much as I have noticed from being an year here, this wiki's state changes along with the state of the game. Before I came, the game was still not very popular and not that many people were playing it, but those who did kept on being peaceful. The game clearly did not have much of a community, and for this reason, there were not many users on the wiki, as well. Of course, with the amazing update 1.9 and 2.0, the game and the wiki along with it grew in popularity. The game already kinda had a community, and of course when the game raised a community, along with the nice experiences, came arguments, drama, and unfairness. I can't understand how drama on the forums is possible as they are not rt, but I can give some useful tips on how to deal with drama on chat. In my opinion if everyone follows them the place would've been drama-free. 1. When you are not a part of a drama but know there is one. Don't give a s***. You will have a better life if you don't care and don't poke your nose there. 2. When you are actually a witness of a drama. -Try not to add fuel to the fire. A comment like "STOP THE DRAMA!!!1!" for example won't really help. -If you are a staff member reading that, please think of this point. I think I am right about it but may be wrong. Don't stop an argument the brutal way unless it's absolutely the only choise! Lifting a ban hammer only adds fuel. Even if the argument stops this way, the hate remains. With some distance the causers may get calm and move on, but their hate can also turn into a ticking bomb that can start an even worse argument/drama later. -Mentioning a lot of times that you are not a part of the drama without being asked is not helpful. -An argument may be just a hate one, but may also be an actual problem that has to be resolved. Don't remark. Again, don't just put your nose in the drama. Even if there is not a drama going on, just an abrasive remark can start a big thing. -Don't loose mentally, please. -The best thing one can do in an attempt to stop a hate argument is to try to explain to the causers the other's point or whether there is anything misunderstood. 3. If you are in the core of an argument/drama or are messed. -Chill. And don't add fuel, too. Even if the other isn't nice to you, try not to add any abrasive remarks against him. -Assess what's happening. The other one might be just joking or just being sarcastic? Even if not any of these two, he might not be offensive? It's a shame when an argument starts from a joke, isn't it? -Don't loose mentally. Don't kill your brain cells just in an argument. -Try to understand the other one and not be a hard head. If I am not wrong, this thread started from AbstractHorizon witnessing an argument between Jolt and Wolf. And all that had to be done is Wolf to follow the last point and the first one, and Jolt to follow the third one. 4. When a troll comes, IGNORE HIM.

Anyways, that's my opinion. If you read this far, then the reply obviously took your attention, and thanks about that. You can give kudos if you support my opinion, or can explain what I am wrong with down in the comments. I'll read anything.
