Was this a demand that we just fall into step with wxyz1234 and his friends?

This is a community, and the same dynamics exist here as in the outside world. Clubs, towns or states take on a texture that you either go along with, work quietly to guide into a more acceptable (to you) flavour, or you emigrate to a different forum.

I am unsure who is holding a gun at your heads to make you stay somewhere you aren't comfortable.

Mods, did wxyz1234 happen to share an IP with any known dissidents?
