Please, no! I so enjoy the tortured beleaguering cries of the unwillingly
subscribed. We, the ruling class, need minions over which we can exhort
our complete and utter ruthless dominion. Without them, the Lords of IC
would be ridden with petty wars of fiefdoms one against another in flame
wars. It is far better to allow the flames to flow in one direction: down,
down, down, towards the unwillingly subscribed, enslaved in their torturous
state for all eternity!
