The main crew associated with this movement is [[The Asylum]] (TAS), which contains most of the server's veterans from the 2014-16 era who are not too mad about pvp, but wish to keep the server a toxic-free and friendly environment. [[Cysteen]] has long been the main advocate for this, and several of her suggestions have been acted on by staff in order to curb levels of toxicity.

The other big criticism comes from the other side of the spectrum; those who believe Cysteenism policies aren't tackling the problem at its roots; namely too much freedom when it comes to pvp.
