Reply To: Old Discord Community Events - (from my pov)

[Juan E. Sandoval]

Another thing I wanna clear up specifically is the idea some have that Ash suggested that I ban Jelle, or that Ash pushed me to do so. This couldn't be farther from the truth. Ash was part of those suggesting I exercise moderation and consider Jelle's point of view in various scuffles such as with Supah. If anyone should be blamed, it's me. Here are a few screenshots I'd like to show, from two months before the banning:

and here is a message from Ash that same day:

And here is the mod consensus that counterbalanced my opinion:

So, as you can see, I was hoping to get mod agreement, but the consensus was not in my favor. Ash was in support of working things out in PM rather than kicking. That consensus did change, however, with the final events - but not because of Ash herself. Again I hope this helps clarify what happened and why. The decision to remove Jelle was primarily mine.

I also don't wish to make this thread another re-hashing of the argument though. Just as a sort of public statement/release. This is now in the past, and as I understand it, Jelle is in another server now, and I wish her and everyone else well.
