Hey everyone that seemed to be interested in reading this blog for whatever reason, I am going to be talking about some of the problems that this wiki's chat has had over the past few months.
Now, like I said- Over the past few months, this wiki has gotten smaller and smaller in population, from the leaving of Shurow, Vicyorus, CPChatBot, and many others, and now I am here to announce today that I, SethTI....
Am not quitting, I promised myself I wouldn't quit this place- I've been here for over 7 years, and I just can't leave. But, what is happening is that I have been visiting the chat much less lately. "But why?", you may be wondering- If you haven't been active on chat, you wouldn't know that two users that I'm not going to be naming have been constantly harassing and being disrespectful, these two users think they own the wiki- one of them got one (and almost two) administrators demoted and leave the wiki, while the other tries to cause drama in the chat on purpose. Because of this, I honestly don't want to put up with any of that cram, so I've decided I'm not going to be in the chat a lot like I used to- and it's already been that way for about 4 months. But, let me tell you when it REALLY started getting bad:
One of the users kept PMing me disrespectful words (swears included) at least once or twice a week, until I finally told an admin about it. The admin then proceeds to PM the user disrespecting me, and apparently that user denies the claim. It then gets to the point to where the admin has to block whoever is lying. And guess what? The user still denied the claim. In the end, there was not enough proof for either, and nobody was blocked- that is when I was fed up with that user, and started caring less and less about the chat.
Eventually, it turned into me not joining the chat for around 4 - 5 days, but I would check the chat logs each of those days and guess what? I was still being talked about.
Here are some chat logs from November 2017:

[2017-11-18 19:22:54] <ThatYoshi8> my personal favorite seth moment is when he loses an argument
^^ It's called avoiding drama.
Another problem is that a while ago I created an emoticon, right? Eventually, they started using that emoticon disrespectfully and it got annoying to some people real fast- Eventually I'd request for it to be removed, and two or three admins got it removed. But wait, how did three admins remove it? Well, the answer to that is- One of the admins kept bringing it back. So, I replaced the file that the emoticon was to something else, because it is my emoticon. Then, the admin would revert it back- and then threaten to block me for changing it ([2017-10-10 07:04:05] <----> !tell Seth4564TI I won't warn you again about changing an emote through the upload log). Eventually, it turned into a COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY admin edit war, and the emoticon was forced to stay.
The edit war.
So, what exactly has the wiki chat turned into? Things seriously need to be looked at here with those 2 users. Thank you to whoever read all of this for- well- reading all of this, feel free to leave what you think about this whole situation in the comments.
