If I may quote from DeanO to Dweller "Clearly, you like to write and you want to make a positive contribution to this wiki."

Please understand that Dweller's affinity to write was never in question. The issue that I and so many others, even those outside of this community have with Dweller is his trustworthiness (note - this is not attack on his character, this is a statement of fact, that again, has been documented). He has proven on too many occasions that he CANNOT be trusted. The comments by Jennifer regarding his actions are all documented and open to the public.

So I ask, how can one logically support such a caustic person? It would be like giving the fox the keys to the hen house.

Rules and guidelines are certainly a necessity and those are already in place. That is not our problem. When in the history of most of our times here have those rules and guidelines been intentionally violated? I will go out on a thin limb and say never. Well, at least not until the presense of the very person that "we" want to help re-write the rules. I, for one, do not see the logic in that.

Please note that I am not a heartless person (well, heartless and person are both debatable) and I believe in giving people chances, but there is a limit to those chances. The number of chances Dweller were given far exceeds the amount I would have given due in large part because the violations committed were too egregious.

I also believe in being part of the solution and not part of the problem. And with that said again I'd like to borrow one of DeanO's comments - "to contribute to a democoracy". That contribution should be to put his return to a community vote. And to put measures in place to circumvent external manipulation, e.g., sock pocket accounts, etc.

A little something to ponder in closing. I've been a very happy member of this forum since May of 2015, I have met a lot of people that I am proud to call good friends and never witnessed what has occurred over the past few days. Rules and guidelines were not the reason for what has happened. Just something to chew on.
