| − | Please remove '''[[Lash]]''' for consideration this month. Personally, I find the actions of some people regarding something that '''should''' be cute and silly as pretty juvenile, and as such have no desire to participate in things such as the PotM and encourage all players who agree to do the same. While I appreciate the player nominating my character (seriously, it was super kind) I have zero interest being a part of something that creates such a divisive element in the community. While I have won the PotM before, I have for a longer time been against it as it tends to create issues between players. It is ridiculous and I'm frankly tired of seeing grown men (and women) acting like squabbling infants over it. Something that should be light hearted and fun is anything but. - @pallas001

| − | - I think you should reconsider Pallas. Yes, I know there is plenty of BS to go around, but the only way for things to change is if decent people set the example. The page mods are trying something new and I'm interested to see how it goes. PotM needs to change how it's handled and this is an experiment in that. Colleen went to the trouble of creating a forum post inviting people to join the PRIMUS community, the least I can do is pay attention and browse the [[:Category:Magic User]]. -- [[Sterga|<span style="text-decoration:none; border: 1px solid #000000; padding:2px 3px; color:#ffffff; background:#960000; font-weight:bold;">Sterga</span>]] 13:06, 11 April 2014 (MST)

| − | At the end of the day you can't please all of the people all of the time. There's bound to be future conflict, it's human nature. You can keep POTM going, just be prepared for more situations like this and be prepared to deal with them categorically. -- [[User:Swixer|Swixer]]

| − | I like the 'Theme of the Month' idea. In the future it might be handy to put a link to some of the category pages relating to the theme somewhere on the page to give people an idea of where to start looking. - [[User:SomethingWitty|Witty]]
