Why Are the FFXIV Forums So Bad?

[NekoMataMata]

Hey Forum mods. Can we like just nuke the whole forum?

Just put us out of our misery.

I actually asked for a temporary nuke a while back. Just force everyone to take a small break and we could come back and see where we stand. Everyone was opposed to it.

At this point they need to glass the place.

I think we are under quarantine.

I mean its usually the same folks on here, wouldnt be surprised if its barely 1-2% of the actual player base...

Welp, look on the bright side. At least these forums have not yet reached the point of regularly deleting negative comments and threads. If you take a peek over in Blizzard-land, specifically in the D4 forums, you may notice an inordinate number of threads criticizing the dumpster fire state of that game keep getting locked and/or mysteriously disappearing. Pretty sure I'll take a general (but seemingly not complete, considering people do occasionally get banned if they go far enough off the rails) lack of moderation over active censorship. The only censorship we have to worry about here is users having a tendency to dogpile (and occasionally mass report) dissenting opinions.

Making any kind of favorable comparison of these forums to another is surreal. Truly a testament to how far gone online communication as a whole is.

Quite right. One has even outright admitted to it today.

Yea thats right I did. You're posts are inflammatory and lack any real discussion so I'm reporting them up the wazoo since you refuse to stop. You know what you're doing is wrong so I have no pity for you or your alt. Maybe you'll think more cautiously about who you call vultures

well, you can mass report dissenting opinions, too.

or did you just admit your voices are only shared by tiny fraction of the already small community called FFXIV official forum which does not represent the entire playerbase?

That's because they enjoy the chaos
