Y'know. It bugs me that people will cause so much pain and suffering when they only know half the story. Yeah, this goes very much to dA in its current state, but it also stands pretty strongly for most of life. How many marriages and friendships are lost because someone gets one little piece of information, and they just run.

Now, on dA, everyone's holding so tight to their convictions, or lackthereof, that they're cutting off friends, attacking people they barely know, and generally cutting a big rift down the middle of our community.

I don't think fingers can be pointed at either 'side.' If anything, this is due to people who are just too ready to make war.

Hold whatever opinion you want, and handle these situations how you want. But please, everyone, remember. Remember your tact, and remember that though everyone might feel differently, we are still -the dA community-, and by attacking and shutting eachother out, we're doing more damage than anything any higher ups could hope to.

Peace, everyone.
