[茶 Tea]

It has come to the attention of upper staff, including Dinkleberg and the PH/TTT Admins, that a set of toxic cliques has formed in this community.
These groups are spiteful and childish, harassing any player that does not agree with their actions. Commenters on staff apps regularly get
attacked for not agreeing with their outlooks. People are harassed on the forums and on Discord. This has led to quite a number of users being
afraid to comment on applications or participate in the community for fear of backlash and harassment.
This is not okay.

Further, while these people openly attack anyone who doesn’t listen to their hivemind, they decry anyone that is not a part of them as “toxic” and
oppressing them. This is not just sad, but undoubtedly wrong. Frankly, these actors have been allowed to continue for far too long, and we apologize
for not doing something about this sooner. It took time for us together and review evidence, and to form a consensus. It took far too long. This
community should be safe for all members. In a desire to not act too quickly we have neglected certain members and let them be attacked.
We left you without a voice. We can only apologize for not acting sooner.
But now is time to end this.
