Summary of the recent poll about un-scouted ILs

Both categories were voted down by the community, however due to extraordinary circumstances surrounding the poll it is likely we will re-poll on the categories after enough time has passed. As time went on, discussion surrounding the poll became less about the categories itself and went in a very negative direction meaning that many were not able to vote on how they truly felt about adding the categories.

No tolerance for bad actors

The mods of this community will not tolerate those who would attempt to bully, intimidate, and subvert the community present here to serve their own ends. Those who have crossed the line and refused warnings to correct their behavior have been removed from the discord and been explained in detail why along with all evidence pointing towards their removal. Those associated with them but who have not done anything to warrant a ban at this time have been warned but not removed.

Moving forward, those removed and those who were allowed to stay will both still be allowed to submit to the leaderboards so long as they follow rules there. Ideally we want everyone to be normal and allowed to compete and add to discourse moving forward if they are capable of respecting this space. But again, I would like to reiterate that we will not tolerate slander, harassment, or insults directed towards user or moderators of this community either on-site or in the discord.

Reminder regarding future polls

Lastly, with future polls we would like to remind the community to stay on topic with any discussion, keep discussion civil and constructive, and generally not make the polls about something else besides the question at hand. Polls are not meant for shows of force where whoever shouts or brigades the most wins, and there have been issues regarding polls in the past as well as present. So, its important that we all stay focused with any future decisions regarding the leaderboards, as we would all like any future polls not to result in issues for the community.
