You do realize you're on a website many people accuse of being a bunch of mean people making fun of others on the Internet, and we're incredibly civil to one another, right?You all ready for a "dumb" and "Autistic" Exceptional answer?
Well the true story of phils fan discord is that a person with no almost no relations to the community was given the tast to create it.
And the vultures quickly swooped in to just sabotage the whole thing of their own admission.
Phil wasn't the one who created it so he deserved it.
They pretended to be fans, or neutral to phil. And used pseudonyms to convince the person tasked with creating the server that this was supposed to be a place of freedom. And that they where tired of the nazis and strict moderation of the streamchat. All the way lying about who they actually where. Which was the case with several individuals in there.
I couldn't recognize anyone of the mods. Just the person tasked to make the server in the first place.
And a person known in the community for harassing supporters.
Talking with them they could not give me any frame of reference at all. It was just like they where new to the internet.
And people told me this wasn't going to be a place where only supporters could be. Everyone had to be welcome.
So this could be a neutral heaven where people with opposing viewpoints could live together in harmony.
The only way you can have a place like that. Would mean You can't talk about phil at all. Ban the subject completely of phil completely.
Or else you have just two opposing viewpoints forced under the same umbrella.
And the place wasn't going to be moderated. Not only that but several of the actual supporters of phil had been ran of the server before I ever got there.
Because of the "freedom" principles. One person where even banned for defending phil against a hater.
Not to be captain obvious. But I don't think that is what phil envisioned out of a "fan discord"
But sure, let's run with the narrative that I destroyed it. When I only pointed out the obvious.
I only suggested it take it's own course and not try to be a fan server at all. Because it was obviously not working as intended.
Which was exactly what happened.
Maybe you could learn something from that. Every community Phil (or someone like you) controls is a community where any slightly dissenting or differing opinion gets the user permanently excommunicated. Take yesterday for example. DSP is going on about how the devs did a bad job with COD:WWII and someone in the chat has the fucking AUDACITY to say they think they devs did a good job. DSP immediately calls the person out and asks why mods aren't permanently banning him from the chat. You know why randoms you don't know are (well, were) part of this Discord's creation? Because they don't want to socialize under the ever present threat of being fucked- FOREVER- out of the relationships they've developed with people because one person (like Phil or you) don't like what they said.
Who the fuck do you think you are to have that power over people or demand that someone with your lack of tolerance does?
