::::::I actually don't know much about many of the admins, and most of the users. As for who views and uses the site, I know most aren't admins or users. There's also the fact that most people who come here looking for information, don't really read much on the front page, other than maybe the news and the side menu that has the links. The reason that we're so relaxed here about some things, is that everybody is going to get offended by something. Heck, I know some people who hate Pokémon because of the rumors of witchcraft and Satanism that surfaced over 10 years ago, and they never bothered getting their facts straight. And there are some that think battling "animals" or "pets" is cruel, when it's just a video game, yet they go play Call of Duty and Halo and don't worry about actually ''killing'' something, in a sense. It's all a matter of opinion, and we try to keep things here nonPOV as you said. But how is one person's comment, much less the EoC on his own "Message from the Editor" section, really going to matter? Of course it's a POV, because it's in his words, from his mind. And it's a POV, because you think that it sounds... let's say, "unofficial" in a way. I really don't have a problem with it, because it's his section he can do whatever he wants. I don't think really anybody else would have a problem with it either. And if you want to get technical, this whole site is POV, because it's compromised of information from Pokémon fans. If it was from Yu-Ghi-Oh fans, the site would probably be a hate site, not an encyclopedia.

:::::::Seriously, Yu-Ghi-Oh fan/= Pokémon hater. Why would they have a reason to hate Pokémon? I know many fans of Yu-Ghi-Oh who like Pokémon. Grawp would make much more sense.
