I won't butter up my opinion and say "good game" when I don't mean it, because there's something just off about what happened with this vote, to me. Yes, some will say that conflict and a combative mood is to be expected in situations like this, but I ultimately believe that in the end, a whole lot of fear-mongering in some cases (Oh god, /v/! Oh god, Blue Gartr! Oh god, [insert group here]! We're doomed to mockery and not enough privacy for our exclusive RP activities!), and assumptions in other cases (Lindblum is crashing because it obviously is overfilled. What? Proof? Pfft. Who needs proof? You can just tell! No, I don't care it's only been a day, or other servers also are!), brought about what was ultimately a real about-face in the results, when it probably shouldn't have.
Yeah, all of you are right that in the end, a server is a server. And yes, being together as a group is the most important thing to consider over who likes what server name the most. But that doesn't change that this whole situation just feels off, between allowing vote changes to what seemed like a bully browbeating from some people who were just that insistent on Besaid for whatever reason (some person going as far as to guffaw at people who didn't change their vote if it wasn't for either Lindblum or Besaid).
Anyway. That's the last I'll say on this whole situation. Forgive me if I've offended anyone. Just wanted to express a perspective that wasn't just a "fall in line" one for honesty's sake, is all. If this is too inflammatory, I'm cool with a nuke. Just don't expect a response for some hours since I'm going to bed now.
See y'all on Besaid.
Not offended, I have to say, I wasn't expecting the fact that you could change your vote, and of course with a public vote such as this there will be some eyebrow raising activities, but for better or worse we are now Besaidians (?) so I say grab a boogie board and lets all hang ten dood

The only thing I would be annoyed about is if anyone nuked this post, because it seems like a reasonable show of opinion.
