I should have worded it differently. I never meant to say that you did say that, it was just an example.

You aren't seeing my point here, yes you were the instigator of the change but in the end it's the person that made themselves change because they wanted to.

Exactly, what is all of this posting going to decide? Who thinks who's better at something and try to convince others of the same? That doesn't mean that they will be chosen.

No, quit mocking my opinions, I never did to any of yours. It's just that this is pointless as it ultimately isn't up to us who decides who gets assigned to be a manager of a server. If it is, that's news to me.

Nor did I say that anybody said that. It isn't an imaginary point if it's a point I thought of and didn't post on here.

I'm believe that if somebody wants to edit something for fun/educational/whatever purposes, they shouldn't be denied the right to do so. Of course you would have to have a debate, but I'm simply wondering why the public is debating over it if they aren't the ones involved in the decision-making process? (Once again, if they are, then it's news to me.)

Well, that's your opinion and you're open to that.
