All you have to do is give the vote to the community. This will show that Ellaism is really decentralized. Create two branches with arguments and let us vote.
A democratic vote will only accentuate the divide. Ellaismer is one-hundred percent correct in starting a new discord. The EGEM team is and should be allowed to deploy their platform on Ellaism. What they cannot do, and what they have done, is use official Ellaism dev accounts to promote EGEM. EGEM directly contradicts the founding principles of Ellaism (no premine, no airdrop, etc.). By coupling Ellaism and EGEM together officially, you are presenting an obvious contradiction to all new comers. I am very interested in using EGEM but it seems like the team behind it is set on destroying it before it is deployed. Forming a mutiny because of one argument is unacceptable and immature. While I wish Ellaismer would've handled the situation better, the other side, namely Riddlez, Chris and Osoese, were quite rash in their rhetoric and accusations.
In the end, this might end of benefiting Ellaism as long as the EGEM team does not fork. Competition breeds innovation. I became financially involved very early, thus my loyalty to Ellaismer. I believe that most of the devs added after were not correctly vetted by Ellaismer and were given too much influence in proportion to their knowledge of Ellaism and the cryptosphere. I think a trimming of the dev team, specifically removing Riddlez and Osoese from an official role, should allow the two sides to reach a compromise.
I believe there is a very low chance of a hardfork because that's bad for everyone involved.
