Not me. I don't sound like that if I tried. ~~Plus I would have made the mods sound like nazis.~~

But I love who ever did.

Not I.

I would've mentioned more of the history of the site, and, well, not had the mods sound, in any way, decent.

The mods.... Maybe I'm just way too biased for my own good, but it's not even neutral it sounds almost favorable towards the mods, and it doesn't mention any of the history, or even any key details surrounding the part of the fandom it does breach. They left out the old forums, the FF community, Fang's Blogspot, the LJ community, etc, as well.

Exactly.

I think that needs to be edited. Politics of both the old and new site, the blog, etc. It's too vague.

And. . . *biased* I'd too, use quotes or something from the mods, to make them sound worse, without it looking like I tried to make it too biased.

Who do you think?
XD

Much as I would have liked to have written a whole history, there aren't many sources to back it up. So I have the briefest version, one with minimal bias.

Yes, I know that you all dislike the MDW mods either way, but this was the most equvocal way I could think of putting it.

*nods*

Maybe, talking to older people, we could get more of the old history. This was a good start, as much as my bias against the mods hates to see them in good light, but it would be really cool if people from different fandom-generations collaborated.
