I want you to understand this, and understand it well. Not every person with a star is a power-abusing asshole, nor are they slanderous when they argue back.

I think that if we're going to have it open, we're not having dramatic shit, accusations, or arguments. You wanna debate? It better be civil. None of this shit going on above, or it will be removed, and if extremely severe, no matter who it goes after, you will be blocked. Yes, of course. It would help though, if in your so-called "professionalism" you weren't so direct with me.

Let's be professional, though. What will disabling chat for two weeks to one month accomplish?

As far as I know, It will give

1. "Give time for things to be fixed" -Which I don't understand

2. "Will allow users to be less distracted from editing and writing" - Which only tells me that they are lazy and choose to chat it up instead, or just enjoy conversation rather than editing,

3. "Will allow the implementation of new policy" - Which, the policies, from what I've heard, are pretty...uhm...Well let's just say that:

I could totally see users needing to reach a certain edit count before becoming a chat moderator. Obviously, they do need to be active with the wiki. But once becoming a chat moderator, they should not be forced to edit regularly because it distracts them from their duty as a chat moderator.

I will not indulge on the countless poor personal experiences I have had with "distracted Chat Moderators".

4. "will allow us to see who edits and who doesn't." - For what purpose?
