Once upon a time there was a dream. It was called Misplaced Pages. The dream is shattering. Be warned.


Misplaced Pages had most worthy ideals and aspirations. And then it grew because the idea was a good one. It grew too big to be managed like it had been. And then suddenly there were those more equal among equals, and their power was granted for life. And there was corruption and petty differences and content disputes that did not have enough neutral parties. The dream started to unravel.

Now it is unravelling faster every day. Power has twisted the minds of some individuals that have been given rule over others. And nobody will counter them. A non-admin will be silenced, an admin stays away in fear of reputation damage and ganging up. It is a deadlock.

Misplaced Pages is said to be a libertarian anarchy. It no longer is, because the liberties are going away one by one. Now its just an anarchy with ever-changing rules on what you ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DO interpreted at seen fit by admins. Where are the liberties? Policies that state what are my RIGHTS? They do not exist because on Misplaced Pages you have NONE. You are at the mercy of the admins' interpretation of the rules. If expressing an opinion countering the ruling clique, or an admin in your own user space earns you a block and a gag, then things are much worse than I suspected.
