Are you kidding me, Jess did not use hostile words. She pointed out some truths. Do you even play the server now to see whats been happening?
I think I misused the term hostile, now that I think about it, I should have used the term condescending. Jess, throughout the course of her thread, tells us to start accepting new players because she thinks she's figured out the master plan that fixes everything. She fails to realize that since our servers popularity is decreasing for reasons more than "being nice to people", an overwhelming majority of people who are given a plot in a town will still quit and never return. She's criticizing town owners who are doing the sensible thing: only allocating resources to people they know won't quit on them the next day.
I spent a lot of time on that comment. It was a lot more than one misused word, I assure you.
Your point isn't really relevant considering she accurately addressed a problem and provided a solution that will work. Minecraft declining as a whole also isn't a massive shift as there are still millions of players.

Its certainly a noble intention, but its absolutely worthless. I compared this thread originally to soccer moms on Facebook that would shout "FIX THE ECONOMY OBAMA", neglecting to realize that posting a comment on Facebook won't change anything. I still think this thread is as useless as those types of comments. Come on Deinen, I know you're incredibly smart and I respect you endlessly, but we both know that this thread won't magically make Meepcraft more friendly, its absolutely useless and people are tired of seeing the same thread pop up every week. Theres no way a thread on a minecraft server forum will convince someone to change who they are, or stop trolling people. Those dozen of other "heres how we fix meepcraft" threads never changed a thing as well.
And for the millions still playing minecraft, I'm willing to bet that at least 95% of them are playing on servers they have fun and not even thinking about joining another.
