if the community was not so willing to use force (ie a js hack) against the other party
instead of talking properly
then the superprotect wouldn't exist at all
you seeing the problem there? whose problem is it? desire to act out of the blue instead of collaborating they didn't collaborate at all they added the js hack as if it was something urgent, that needs saving people from
i would only do this if someone added a virus into mv by mistake
this community thinks that its power structures allow to tromp onto other people
I agree with your thinking here Svetlana, but would disagree with your terminology that the vocal complainers about superprotect should be shorthanded as "the community." That is what they like to think of themselves, but they are really a minority of the community. They are the administrative culture. They are not really the editors, not really the readers, both of those groups dwarf the administrators and administrative participants.
The community is all the readers, all the editors, and after them in size the vocal and visible administrative set. So Mr. Moeller shouldn't feel intimidated, and clearly doesn't, when a bunch of very loud people writes volumes of complaining text on discussion pages insisting that he has affronted "the community."
