White Lantern Kyle was a controversy among fans what are your opinions should he stay green or turn white again?

Being white was cool and different. I would actually like to see him go as a Blue lantern for a bit.
I liked him as that in War of the GLs, even.though it was brief. He had a cool suit there as well.
I just think it fits Kyle's personality more than as a green. And there are so many earth GLs I think that giving them different rings would help un dilute the GL corps as well as give the individual earth lanterns their own uniqueness and niche.
Benefit for both.

My name is Wally West. I"m the fastest man alive. I"m the Flash.
Favorite Heroes - 1-Flash/Wally West, 2-Superman, 3-Green Lantern/Hal Jordan, 4-Nightwing, 5-Hawkman, 6-Firestorm, 7-Supergirl/Linda Danvers, 8-Zatanna, 9-Robin/Tim Drake
I could go either way on White Lantern Kyle. He's "my" Green Lantern (he held the mantle when I started reading) so I'll never complain about him having a role in the Corps, but I thought New Guardians lacked direction and his quest to master the emotional spectrum gave the book/character purpose in an increasingly-crowded Green Lantern field. Being White Lantern also set Kyle apart without resorting to devolving the character back to "new kid" status, which of course he had long since grown out of.
Be it Green or White, I do think Kyle deserves a distinct role in the mythos. If the Torchbearer thing is put to bed with the return of the old status quo with Hal/the Corps/the Guardians, I like the idea of it being Kyle who pushes the boundaries of what the emotional spectrum can be, and how it can be wielded. He had a vehicle for that as White Lantern. Editorial chose to go in a different direction and return him to being a Green, and that's fine, but I think he can do better than palling around with the Titans.
Wow I just read HIC 8....and all I'll say is thank God Kyle wasn't in this series
Where's Ron Marz when you need him??

I'll try being nicer if you try being smarter.
Parental care is way exhausting. Gained insight into what my parents went through when I was a baby. Not fun, but what ya gonna do? (Read comics, obviously.)
Kyle appeared today on year of the villain,although only on one panel but it's good to know at least they have use for him and it's better than being in limbo....
He's also on the suspects page for being one of the 6 heroes/allies infected by BWL. And although the last time this happened, he turned out to not be in it at all, I'm not so sure he'll be spared from this too. I'd rather him be in limbo than that.
Even though, it's less 'betrayal' and more being forced, since it's being infected/becoming a sleeper agent, I worry there won't be a cure and he'll get killed off...
Also kinda surprised Guy isn't in the picture. Kinda makes me think, Guy, Hal, and Jess are off in space, while Kyle, John, and Simon are meant to hang around Earth more.
Kyle also appears in YJ #5 on one page when Tim gets his memories of Conner and the previous YJ.
