Regarding the toxicity claims and the claims made in the OP.
It's not a secret that within the council itself. Nine2 in particular has had his head on the metpahorical chopping block for a while. The second biggest conversation in the council after the Association, is the handling of the conflicts of interest between being a FAF councilor and managing a game project that directly seeks to canibalise FAF's audience - for personal profit.
For weeks now have I been in discussion over the following points:
- Being a councilor while doing this, as I said
- Not disclosing that the conflict exists, which would be illegal if we were paid employees
- Using FAF's services to advertise the game you profit from, which has always been banned
And the point that dragged me into this:
- Using the FAF vaults in order to gain playtesting for maps, and then planning to remove the maps later to sell exclusively as a part of said game.
The council has mostly agreed to bring our discussions about this topic into the public, so we can go into more detail about this later.
When I first saw this post I viewed it as some kind of final lashing out, or an attempt to remove dissidents from the council in order to retain the position. Indeed I make no denials about my willingness to say yes in a vote of no confidence when you couple this along with the lack of progress in the area and how some actions (or lack thereof) have slowed other aspects of FAF.
I'll now go down the OP in order as long as I can before I run out of time. I have to go to work.

You can choose how you wish to interperet what I say.

I'm not going to even bother replying to the document. It's incredibly weak. I will however mention this little part about the "code of conduct" sheeo made.

Do you think is is acceptable to see some rules have been put in place and then immediately attempt to oust someone using them? And then cut that part from the public like you've done for every other snip in the document? I'm personally happy if everything i've ever said in the council chamber was shown to the public.
Many people share my views on toxicity. You won't see them speaking out too much around the place, but they know I am receptive and they message me.
If i say:
Many people think I am a good mapper. You won't see them speaking out too much around the place, but they know I am good and they message me.
People would think it's ancedotal and has no real weight in any discsussion. So does your comment.
I'm out of time and want to go into the retention stuff and the list of strawmen in the OP. I'll do it in a few hours.
One last thing for you though:
nine2 said in Council of Setons EXPOSED - Part 1:
Why do you think it's ok to call people derogatory names like petulant in council chat biass? It's meant to be a workplace for serious conversations about FAF.
Here is the ENTIRE log of council chat discussion were the word "petulant" was used. The community can decide how they feel about how I composed myself.
