These statuses contained accusations about Aikar idly profiting off of EMC while "volunteers" run his server. Full disclosure, I have received compensation for my contributions to EMC and put my heart and soul into making this server the best it can be beyond what this server could afford to pay me because I don't do it for the money. This is where I go for fun and to hang out with friends.
Furthermore as a teacher, next week I have my Spring Break and I have a large list of projects I intend to work on for EMC. I want to keep this community growing and feel as though we have made significant progress recently. The possibility of compensation does not motivate me, but instead the potential to create a warm and inviting community that people can enjoy Minecraft for years to come.
Those that would be toxic to others here, are frankly unwelcome. I will freely admit the staff presence is lacking and the tutorial is unfriendly to new players. That is why we are working on things. Negativity without providing solutions is just toxic.

My apologies to those that do not care for my communication style, it is just part of who I am. I want to get to the point and some of the pleasantries of conversation exhaust me which results in semi-rude snippy responses. :(
