Linio's overture incident

The Linio overture incident occured on the 23rd of January when Linio as admin unbanned Mak without talking to anyone before going apeshit about alts.

Unban
Basically Linio brought Mak back into GS, since he apparently wanted to begin a process of reconciliation between GS and RTSG. All the admins and elder mods got pissed at Linio for unbanning him, which he apparently didn't understand because "HE WANTS TO APOLOGIZE HEADASS". When everybody asked Linio if he even knew why Mak was banned, he replied that he had no clue. Other members pointed out that he could just apologise to members of GS individually instead of being unbanned.

To Mak's credit, he didn't come and flame or anything. He did make an attempt to try and deescalate the situation, and everybody was mainly just angry at Linio for taking it upon himself to try and singlehandedly fix an issue that he didn't couldn't be bothered to understand.

Shortly after Mak's overture, Linio pissed people off even more when he stated that a reconciliation between GS and RTSG should include a gradual unbanning of all RTSG people from GS, which was promptly rebuffed. Linio also made the mistake of being highly hostile to anybody who expressed any kind of anger towards Mak when he came, deliberately ignoring the long running issues between members of both communities. Linio didn't help himself when he constantly stated that he hoped a wiki page would be made one day to praise him for magically solving all issues between GS and RTSG.

Alt account
Almost immediately after Mak's request to begin normalising relations, an puppet account joined and was immediately banned from the server. It was discovered that the alt in question used an invite that Linio sent solely to Mak, causing him to immediately drop his diplomatic stance and begin insulting Mak for supposedly breaking his trust. This time, most GS members decided not to blame Mak, finding it a bit ridiculous that he would invite an alt. Mak eventually left the server, seeing no reason to remain. Considering the weirdness of the alt joining, as well as Linio's reaction to it, it is likely that this was just Linio trying to create drama.

Chegg came online shortly after everything happened and got pissed at Linio for doing what he did. Yeah that's pretty much it.
