Now I do not personally have an issue with Slagpit, however, I do have a problem when an admin starts calling another player or alliance as a cheater. That is a serious allegation, plus with no actual proof or action taken, it can be viewed as either slander or supporting cheating.

That is the problem, it is unprofessional.

If you truly think LaF is driving away players from the game, then think about the mechanics that led to the current politics and change it. And even then, Pang says the game is growing, not shrinking.
