"Drama is well-known among everyone, and can't really be avoided at times. I've seen a few friendships break in the past and overall situations where hell was near breaking loose. I figured it'd be good in thought to have some sort of peer mediation group for the wiki, mainly to deal with Fanon related issues but listen to irl stuff too if the speaker is willing. I know that as well as drama, people to have friends to talk to on here, although sometimes they might give bias feedback just because of that friendship; a neutral party seems better to me.

Something like this though might be a tad bit difficult to do though..."

The problem with this is that because none of us are qualified, we may make the situation worse. After all, that was my main job, and I know I messed up a few times, particularly during the new RP rules setup. Then there's also the fact that by choosing a person, or group, they may feel like they can't air their problems, as others would lose faith if the person they look to for help can't even help themselves. If we have a peer group where anyone can post, it may get heated fast, or words may be said that would be hurtful, while also easier to remember due to being on a page. This one may be better for chat than a page itself. Honestly, the only way for a neutral party would be to find either an unactive member and convince them to do it, or find someone off site. In short, it will be a huge effort if we want to do it right. Until we get everything set up, I'll continue as the mediator, but I really do want this done. It'd make my job so much easier.
