All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XIV

[LulzKiller]

It's not about taking a break, it's more the need to re-read and reflect upon the messaging you output before communicating with other individuals, especially as we want to at least be welcoming to newcomers who are looking for a respite from TVT-style politics. If someone pisses you off on the wiki, a reminder to not respond instantly out of emotion will help both yourself but the long-term operation of the wiki, as many wikis have suffered through staff acting upon emotion and not reason, hence ATT was created in the first place.

I've expressed concern before per all of us coming across as too hard-handed in our communications to non-staff users before. Maybe I need to be more firm on it.
