Thank you to the moderators

[ZephyrMenodora]

I can’t praise this Zephyr Im sorry I want to stay hopeful that this place will improve but honestly they deleted a thread that was made to name and shame and they still didn’t ban the user himself AND he continued to name and shame:

That account is probably still not banned even after this and even if, it wouldn’t matter because they have dozens alts.
At this point Im actually believing one of them is either a mod or they are awfully favoured because any active mod would see what is going on with all the alts and all the threads made to incite people for “fun” but nothing changes and it could be EASILY changed and it’s clear they are around, but choose to do nothing. Can’t be praised unless thanked for the bare minimum…honestly this matter should be taken out of the forums and talked about at this point for anything to change.

I agree with you 100%. Things can and should be a lot better here! But I have seen 3 threads lately removed and a few comments here and there. It's a start and something I want to encourage.

I thought this was a sarcastic thread. The main reason the forum is in this state is the few dozen of people and their alts that continue trolling their ways. Everyone knows their names and the names of their alts, and roam free like mosquitoes on a hot summer day, but nothing is done. SE seems to be able to ban ingame without banning on the forum (or at least I've seen people coming and complain on the forum for their ingame ban), so they should be able to do the opposite. And if not, that should be implemented.

I encourage it too but please do it right, why delete a thread but not ban the person that made the thread?

oooh, i got named and shamed! What did I do??

On topic: you're absolutely right Sassy, I think it's just nice to see SOMETHING done, even if it isn't even really a slap on the wrist. What's concerning is that he does seem to be escalating his behaviour, which makes everything nastier for sure. I'm not sure what we could ever do to get SE to notice or care. Maybe have a Japanese poster try to post something on our behalf in their forum? idk.

I can definitely see how you'd expect this to be sarcasm but I really was being sincere. This place has a LONG way to go, but I appreciate the effort to remove the absolute worst of it. It's a low standard for a community but it's definitely more than I've seen before.

I also agree with Sassy - It's a bit sad you have to be wary here due to the hostility. Other game communities have simple things like pet threads, cosplays, or just more openness talking about themselves. I wouldn't feel comfortable engaging in things like that here as you know some people would take the harassment too far. It's sad.

Mods:


EDIT



pointing out how awful you think they are is NOT going to make them want to be more consistent.

Kudos. If more people had this mindset when giving feedback, the world would be in a much better place.

A win is a win. I will admit that however I will not be celebrating until certain names stop posting.

Notice a lack of mentioning names...it's for others to fill in the blanks.

That honestly would be the right thing to do. No one person should be allowed to disrupt your game's official forums to the extent they do. I do hope even more action is taken for sure.

I don’t know, it could help if they have active moderators there I think, other than that Im just writing support, I urge others to do the same, including mentions on how they don’t pay to be here - RMT.

Yes I hate that, we were having a conversation about food, someone mentioned they have diabetes and that monkey came to laugh at them like?…..please tell me you’re 12 and if not then it’s just sad thats how you get your lols.

You're making some good points there. This is good feedback that the moderators could use and learn from.
