My Hero Academia Law Book:Requesting of User Rights/Archive

Discord Server
Firstly, let me stress that in no way am I downplaying Roranoa Drake II's role in fostering a vibrant Discord server for MHA fans; I think their accomplishment is not to be sneezed at. However, at present, the administrative structure of Roranoa Drake II's Discord server is not representative of that of the wiki's, and Roranoa Drake II enjoys considerably disproportionate power on Discord over the rest of the wiki bureaucrats/administrators/content moderators. Additionally, Roranoa Drake II liberally silences robust discussions related to decisions that they've implemented, under the pretence of avoiding public drama. Whilst in principle this rule is useful for dealing with trolls, it should not be abused to shut down in-good-faith policy discussions, especially when they're critical of Roranoa Drake II. (To quote them from [ before], "[a] user who has any sort of user rights should be an exemplary model among others.") Rather, such discussions should be held in the open for all to critique. If Roranoa Drake II's Discord server is to be affiliated with this wiki, then: (a) all wiki bureaucrats and administrators should have equivalent administrative privileges on that Discord server (and all wiki content moderators should have equivalent moderation privileges on that Discord server); and (b) discussions pertaining to policy should be exempted from the "no drama" rule, especially when conducted in the  channel. The same applies to other spin-off accounts, such as the "wiki" Twitter account ( @BokuNoHeroWikia ). Otherwise, this wiki should sever ties with Roranoa Drake II's Discord server, and if they plan to retaliate, their wiki privileges should be revoked.

I am in agreement with all of the points raised here. Damage3245 (talk) 13:16, July 13, 2018 (UTC)

It was I who started the wiki server and came up with the idea to do it, after becoming unsatisfied with the reddit server. I later handed the server over to Drake. The idea was to make a accessible and wiki focused server. Although I am a memember of the server, I don't feel the wiki benefits anyway from it. There has been times where people have messaged me, feeling disatisfed with the way Drake or other people handle things on the server. Although I have got nothing against Drake or the server. I believe we once dicussed about acting responsibly on both the wiki and server. Judging from Halo's comments that's where I might have a problem with acting responsibly. I agree with that all wiki role users should be given responablity on the server. If I remember correctly there was a time were I wanted to give wiki members equal rights on the server, but it was overruled and wiki members have become excluded ever since. 13:51, July 13, 2018 (UTC)

My two cents as a relative newcomer is that it feels like editors are relegated to the sidelines on that server, despite it being branded as the wiki's Discord server. My own interactions with Rora(/Noctis/Ragdoll) have been frustrating; they come off as arrogant and dismissive, and quick to silence dissent, despite it being blatantly obvious that they could use some help with [ CSS] and [ JS]. And yet they're in charge of the design department, the only department that's not accepting new members. For the record, unabridged transcripts of my run-ins with them can be found on Pastebin under the IDs  and. puxlit (talk) 14:29, July 13, 2018 (UTC)

I also agree with what TheHaloVeteran had to say about Drake and him abusing his power over others. Drake is also turning the wiki's discord less and less about the wiki and more about him creating his own little fan club. I say this due to the following things Drake has done.


 * Kicking/banning who ever he wants, making any rules he disires (that works in his favor) to the point that he tries to bring his rules on to the wiki.


 * Threatening others a wiki block if they don not abide by whatever he says. An example of this is the comment he left on the wiki rules page saying "Just an fyi. Any user who is not an administrator and tries to edit this page will get a block. No exceptions" even tho majority of wiki staff have disagreed with the rule.


 * Putting none wiki editors in power, I had no problem with tommy/skye/teara being admins/mods but giving some random 20 or so people power over the wiki server(sidekicks) just because they were nice to you. Also demoting wiki bureaucrats and admins below even sidekicks.
 * Drake's biggest problem is handling any criticism or objection. He uses the drama rule to mute or kick others,  and when asked in the dm's he ignores you. This ignorance has also been seen on the wiki when he deletes and locks threads he knows will have negative comments about him.
