User blog:EvergeenMapping/A message from the TFOE Wiki

First off, please let me remind you not to remind the pepe in a santa hat being used as my profile picture. I intend for this blog to be taken seriously by the members of the Alternate History community. I personally think, and I know that the TFOE wiki administration thinks this as well, that the Alternate History community is a great community in its sheer curiosity in defying what one would regard as a "historical flow" which seemingly took place throughout history; but as many of you have proven, this is simply not the case sometimes. Now that those formalities are out of the way, I must bring my concern regarding relations between the communities with urgency; a user (who I will allow to remain anonymous) recently had his account disabled. Through an arbitrary albeit careful process, most of the administration and "diplomats" (Batran can't seem to wrap his head around the fact that not every group/organization is not the same as a modern nation-state) believe that it was due to a user of this Alternate History wiki, who I will also allow to remain anonymous in order to prevent a larger conflict centered around said user. I will also remind the users who are uninformed about similar incidents to this that Ace009, an acquaintance of mine within this community, was encouraged by a user named QuebecanCanada to report the TFOE wiki to VSTF, and for decent reason. The TFOE wiki, granted, is a hotbed of immaturity, and the Skype chat is even worse, and has some users violating several rules, but I should remind you that these people are under tight control by the administration of the TFOE wiki, and their say in administrative matters is usually little or no say at all when compared to the amount of power vested in a non-violating user of the TFOE wiki. Nevertheless, there are users from the Alternate History wiki who continue to act out of necessity towards the TFOE wiki, and there was an incident recently on the TFOE wiki involving an Alternate History wiki member criticizing the method by which "Mappers" display their "alternate future" using what the Alternate History user referred to as "simple maps" and "unrealism". I will remind you that "Mapping" is not meant to be realistic, and it is generally a lighthearted project in itself. Although I for one prefer to go into more detail when describing a specific scenario, that may not be what other "Mappers" may intend of their "series". TL;DR some TFOE wiki members don't like going into detail about the maps they make. Incidents like this have caused an increasing level of hostility among TFOE wiki members towards the Alternate History community based off of the actions of a few prominent users, which has led me to come to a single, and precise but astonishingly simple need which the TFOE wiki needs (possibly for a long time) from the Alternate History wiki. I, EvergeenMapping, (unofficially) request a sort of "truce" between Alternate History users and TFOE users. The terms of this truce are that Alternate History users may not take any sort of action against the TFOE wiki and its users, and vice versa, and that the difference between fiction and reality must be taken extremely seriously should any debates about the subject come up. Good day,
