This is Yuletide, everybody make a scene

I am the sock with the tear-away face
Low-effort with your gift and gone without a trace
I am the "who" when you call, "Who does an exchange without acknowledging their gift?"
I am the wanker blowing through your fics comments
I am the coalie dragging your letter at night
Filling your exchange to the brim with fright!

This is Coaltide!

It absolutely is made up. Back when this policy first came into action, a completely different reason was given for it. Then, when people started complaining, it was suddenly done to protect server because there was a huge bug that they somehow couldn't fix.

It's all about hhertzof and the other asshole wranglers wanting to have a higher position of power, even though they don't do any work. I've waited for a fandom tag to be made canonical for three fucking months now, a tag that's perfectly formatted and needs no changes made whatsoever. Any wrangler could've canonized it in a matter of minutes, but nooo.
