Should there be a 'community' for proxies?

And if it isn't allowed, is this site just shilling for WOTC?

  1. If you want a proxy community to be a thing, make it. Ultimately it's up to the hosts of the instance if that's something they're comfortable with.

  2. Stop using "shilling" as a catchall for something you don't like. A "shill" is a very specific type of person, namely someone that takes money in exchange for actively advocating for a company/entity. Some people just don't feel comfortable with proxies and that's ok. Calling them "shills" is just edgelordy, unimaginative instigating.
