Genuine Question Here

[IkaraGreydancer]

Would those who have issues with the game in its current state prefer those who don't share said issues leave these forums? Ive seen alot of talk of you guys being silenced n such by these people and them being the reason the game is in an apparent decline. So I ask this just to see what the opinion on that is. Would you guys prefer if the space was more for just negative feedback?

Pointless, meta drama thread that has nothing to do with FF14. Only outcome of this thread if anyone feeds this troll is more pointless forum drama. Probably made by a troll alt.

Report and move on.

You see my post count and join date. Ive posted 1063 times more than you yet...im the troll alt? How does that work? Youve posted once....Next you say it's not about 14 yet...its the main point of the question. Feedback for 14 and how certain posters would like things to be around here. Nothing I have said or done here is worthy of being reported so can we not weaponize that system?

It would seem now that moderation seems to have returned folks are report happy now to anything they think is bad. That's a dangerous precedent to set.

It's clear they are the troll alt used to spread drama. Just ignore them. It's all that can be done. People around here lately are more interested in drama than anything else. This thread won't be taken seriously even if someone answers it seriously. There are too many on the forums who don't care right now, and only want to spread as much turmoil as possible. There's an opinion faction war on these forums and at the end of the day nobody will ever be able to make any sense of it because nobody really knows what's going on and why people are so disingenuously passive aggressive.

Thing is I'd like to ignore it but if I'm banned because folks decide I'm some troll alt or something (any rational person can look n see this is not the case) I can't say I'd be to happy about that. I simply want to see where folks stand on this topic because for some folks it seems this is what they want. But I'd rather have a discussion on what folks want for/from the forums rather than assume most just want a criticism echo chamber. It's literally a "help me understand you n what you want this space to be" thread basically.

I would just like to remind people that it is highly unlikely he/she actually cares about understanding the other side. They already have a preconception and a strawman set up in their mind:

Don't yall crap on the Twitter side of this community for doing this?

Isn't your camp the same folks talking about XIV fans being to soft and immature?

Your hivemind will think they are as per usual as someone is either always right or always wrong here. But I can tell talking with you is only further devolving to the same old nonsensical bs

But I forget you operate on the logic that CBU3 has done nothing right...yet you still pay monthly for the game. By your own logic you're either here because of bad WoW or you're one of those so called sheeple SE fans.

I would concur, this thread is unlikely to have spawned out of a genuine desire for debate and dialogue, and there is little reason to take it seriously.

Love how it's been people with 5 posts and fewer who joined the forums in June 2023 who have posted this and similar three times now.

Not really surprising it's the same person doing it.

Hmm, you look like you're itching for the gaze of the Emperor.

It IS a dangerous precedent to set. Mass reporting someone for what you THINK they're doing wrong is not good nor fair. Doesn't matter if they get banned or not. It's the principle behind the action.

Don't violate the ToS and no one would even report you. Simple.

Big talk, but the mods aren't just gonna ban someone on your say so, even if you do mass report. They do actually do their job when a report is sent to them. Also, stop threatening other posters.

Yes, my friend, we have seen six rule violators fall over the last two weeks. They do their jobs. But it is not a threat to anyone. They are not related to you and no one has anything to fear... so long as they follow the ToS.
