We have received a number of complaints related to these confessions lately, from “both sides”, meaning pro-Imperial people and pro-Stormcloak as well as others who are neutral. People have been complaining that 1. they are tired of seeing people argue over the civil war confessions when the…
bah, answer was too long to fit in the field. I can see both leading to more angry people, to be honest. If you nix a confession for either reason, then the person who submitted it will still just accuse you of bias towards the other side. You either then have to just ignore these accusations or go to the work of digging up the past confessions, (though, to be fair, for the really common ones you could end up having a few stock replies) or you have to go digging through the wiki or something to point out that what they are saying goes against lore, or is a misrepresentation of events. You have said numerous times that you post all confessions, unedited, (except for length, at times, for the text on the image) and the angry people haven’t believed you about that, why would they take your word about this? So… as annoying as it can be to see the same thing repeated over and over, or see opinions based on factual errors or really bizarre interpretations of events/characters, I think it will end up just trading in one set of problems for another set, at least on your end. On the readers end, it will be nice for longtime followers of the blog, and should mean you can get through backlogs faster, but the one about nixing oft repeated confessions could be bad for new followers.
