That's exactly what I'm thinking. The only people really getting much out of this are the trolls...We get to sit around, bored, for a week while they wait, laugh at us, and come back and troll 10x worse. :/
I'm going to tell the truth. At first, I was all 'Whoo! They are doing something about these dang trolls!' But while I was rejoicing, I couldn't help but stop and ponder '... Wait? Shut down the servers for a week... Why?!' It annoys me when I read all the comments that say 'This had to be done' but there seems to be no sense behind it.
I applaud the individuals who actually have a sensible idea to fix it for I can't even think of one myself. Maybe I should think of one before criticizing what the admins are doing... But this seems to be a complete waste of time. Alright, people who say 'This needs to be done', why does it need to be done? What is this going to do? What are the admins saying to the problem makers when they shut down the server because of their actions?
'If you persist with trolling that we're going to shut down the server again? >D'
Maybe I'm not understanding? I just find this all silly.
