Hi, you guys may know me as Deva, World, or Ita. I'm an active user on the fanon. Now without further ado, lets get to the point. I understand how some Roleplayers dispute over Roleplays especially battle Roleplays, but I don't think monitoring it with judges to solve these disputes will actually solve the problem. It was seen before how the application policy caused people to accuse the admins of being biased. Lots of people hate the application policy because like me, they hate restraints. With this system, people will just think that the judges are being biased in their decisions and this will surely happen. And, if the words in the end goes to the admins I would say that such system is unnecessary whereas we can simply ask admins to make them judge the given issue and decide what is suitable.

And to make it worse, anyone who refuses to accept the decision of the panel blindly, will get a warning and it may reach a ban. Which makes this system enforcing to the users and takes the fun out of the roleplaying. From what I know, this wiki has been facing problems lately as mentioned by a former admin of the wiki, people worry about others power too much rather than improving themselves, we saw how lots of people create characters for the sole reason of killing other characters by making a perfect defense against this particular character. That's why there doesn't need to be more restriction we need to enjoy fun roleplaying and have fun creating fanfictions and sharing our stories of character and trying to improve our writing.

Roleplays are made to have fun, not to be enforced to do anything, many people may say that it's solving disputes, but it's more than that "Refusal to abide by decisions made by the panel will result in a warning for first occurrence, second is a report to the administration, third is a one-day ban" we reached a point where users can get banned if they don't blindly obey the panel, where's the "fun" in that? why do we roleplay? do we roleplay so that we only see who is stronger, to the point where we make disputes that encouraged a system that tries to solve such disputes, instead we should be concentrating on having fun and improving our writing rather than argue about who is stronger and roleplay only to win. And, now we are spoiling the fun by adding such unnecessary restrictions. This system will only cause more conflict because of the fact that there is punishment when the user doesn't agree with the panel. It makes this fanon more "forced" than "fun". Disputes like this should be settled between the users and if need calls, a third party preferably an admin, we should never resolve to such harsh measurements like banning users for roleplays.

Roleplays should be collaborative between users in order to make a good story and have fun, not to aimlessly try to win battles. If we want this wiki to go forward we must change our mentality, not try to solve a problem by adding a bigger problem to it. Enforcing the rules won't make it better, it will just repel the users from conversation with the panel and will possibly repel them from roleplaying as well to avoid the punishment, of course, they were roleplay but it will affect them in a degree. I always wondered why the former bureaucrat left the site, I never found an answer to it except recently. The fact is, the fanon is getting less and less fun to be on, users are leaving because of that. And, that's why I will oppose this system for the sake of the fanon and for us to enjoy our time here rather than be enforced to do things which will get in the way of our creativity. I would like to say that this is just my opinion, you are free to agree or disagree, thank you. Raishun (talk) 04:42, February 25, 2014 (UTC)
