Ye I'm Sladow, which you can quite easily tell by 1) my profile pic as it's unique and 2) by simply clicking on my posts for a second. There are projects like the FAQ or tables from the Trainer Team which should make it pretty clear. Also the tag should also do its thing.
Thank you for making a point for me - you want me to remember your specific profile picture? Did you scroll through this topic and noticed how many derivations of this there are:
I'm not going through the effort to look at your posts. Or to open the client. Come on, these suggestions are ridiculous and I hope you know that too. We have a username for a reason - just google it and everyone on the internet mentions the first reason they exist is to be identifiable to other people. That is in my view exactly what the moderation team is trying to achieve here.

Besides that, using me as an example for that is not the best idea because I'm quite literally the guy asking on several Discords about changes to get opinions of different players, basically representing every rating range from complete beginner to high ranked from different parts of the community. So yes. Before doing any change I discuss it with the team like other Team Leads, but I also discuss it with a lot of different people.
And that's great, so do I. But what is your point? In my view the moderation team is doing the exact same thing:
- (1) They discuss it internally.
- (2) They make it public what their intentions are.
- (3) They're open to feedback (it is literally in the last paragraph) and every user with an FAF account can respond and give their input.
My bet is that in a few days we'll come to the conclusion that the majority of the community doesn't really care and just wants to play the game .

Also as I spoke with other "higher" FAF community members, FAF built in polls are a thing which just noone uses. So it's possible to ask a majority of people.
You won't reach the majority of people. And these polls can be extremely skewed the moment 1 caster with a large audience asks its audience to vote a certain way. This happened in the past, and it's far from productive.
There are also no 'higher' FAF community members. The notion of that is ridiculous.
