While I understand why you may not like private messaging, honestly without the dozen or so who made contact with me on social media beyond the Marvel Database over the past several days, we may not even be having this conversation.

Anyway, upon realizing at least a quarter of the active mods/admins (many of whom felt alone in their grievances) separately expressed they were considering leaving, without knowing how many others might silently feel the same, I decided to come back and further voice things publicly.

Unless we implement some sort of time limit for discussions, from my perspective any topic that doesn't include both an eventual roll call for a vote on a proposal and the subsequent votes revealing a clear community consensus, should still be considered unresolved and thus active.

This is why some of us have been saying for months that the Database's community consensus needs specifically defined structure, as mitigating confusion of where we are in the process would help diminish some of the frustration that potentially leads to the perceived belligerence.
