I agree! I adore the enthusiasm and all these IC developments are incredible and exciting, but as someone not too deeply involved in what's going on and just observing, I felt bad thinking that what's going on might overlap or overshadow or just over complicate the player plot happening shortly that was planned...I wanna say a month in advance?

Of course, I doubt anyone realized how this drama was going to snowball into something game-wide, but I think the mods' decision was informed and reasonable. It's definitely important to check the calendar before starting something this huge, just in the interest of fairness.
