Again, I return to my original point: there is no "main" blacklist. What gets put on the blacklist thread does not necessarily end up on a server.
Even if there was a council to say, "Hey, this is a dumb blacklist entry, remove it", they would have no power to enforce anything. Sure, they could run their own blacklist and make it available to server owners, but ultimately those server owners do whatever they want with their own blacklist.
All real power rests in the hands of the server owners. A council residing over a blacklist would just supply them with another option, and not be able to actually enforce anything.
I see everyone here talking about how unfair the TyD blacklist is... and doing nothing to change it! You think there is a problem? Go do something about it! Make your own blacklist and make it available! Heck, start a council and beginning discussing blacklist entries. No one is stopping you. Maybe if this gets enough momentum people will start using this alternative blacklist.
All I see right now is a bunch of people discussing how evil TyD is without doing anything to provide an alternative. GO MAKE YOUR OWN BLACKLIST IF IT IS THAT IMPORTANT TO YOU.
