I don't think anyone has implied that they are turned to 'evil' purposes, Wandering. If you look at both Eä's and my posts, we both said that the Moriquendi were those elves who had not been to Valinor and seen the light of Aman.
Well, it was partly in reference to the stuff that was said about Dark Elves in general, rather than specifically the Tolkien related posts...

Thanks for explaning the whole Avari/Umanyar thingy Wandering
It isn't very clear in the books...
@ Aerandir - eh...I might have said something like that. Some of them were twisted into orcs after all. That's kinda an 'evil' purpose.
And it was also partly in reference to the Avari becoming Orcs, as someone earlier in the topic implied that the Moriquendi were Avari only. Which they are not
No problem Aerlinn. I didn't really understand it first off, but the diagram in the back of the Silmarillion really helps to explain it. I was consulting it when i made the post.
