I hate to resume this discussion but it was I who reopened Dark Sage's thread because the mod who closed it had claimed to be doing it "because it has become a shithole and not because it has broken any rules". No one ought to close a thread if no rules have been broken (except in particular cases where the discussion has become obsolete, or a game has a new version).
Now, I'm in a difficult position, as I don't want to be a dictator. I believe most things can be discussed so that we can come to an agreement rather than start fighting each other. Hence this thread. I will only override a mod's actions by myself if I have no doubts that there's been a power abuse. So I hope I don't have to do that in a long time. Never again, if possible.
