RE: Avali Nexus Forum 1: A Cold Phoenix - SilverOtter - 06-21-2015 (06-21-2015, 08:40 PM)Reks Wrote: Otter. There is a problem because you tossed the big steaming pile of shit that is the problem in the open. Things weren't completely okay before, no... But they weren't anywhere near as bad until you shined a light on them and decided to wedge a fucking pickaxe in the cracks to make it worse. But just as adamantly as you are on the issue of splitting, I've adamantly determined that worrying about fixing the 'issue' when obviously more than half of us don't see it because it's not that big of a fucking deal is actually DRIVING PEOPLE AWAY. Okay, seriously? The issue that I'm raising, the root of our problems, is that neither is system is perfect. It would have been simple to talk about why the forums don't work for you, so we could fix those problems, because communication is important, you know? This issue is not big, but it supports bigger issues, like the one everyone has been building up over the last month. IT IS, AGAIN, THE ROOT ISSUE. It is the reason why we are broken into two avenues of communication, and why we have drama over such. IT IS AN ISSUE THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF WE HAD TALKED INSTEAD OF JUST GOING WITH THE CLOSEST "SOLUTION". I can understand why you all decided it wasn't that big of a deal, after all it's pretty small. BUT IGNORING IT DID NOT SOLVE ANYTHING. And now we have bigger problems. Cancel that, because I might as well say that SITTING DOWN AND WORKING OUT PROBLEMS WE ARE HAVING AS A COMMUNITY IS THE ROOT ISSUE. By working as a team, we could solve the major drama, or shitposting, or forum issues. OUR PROBLEM, IRONICALLY, IS FAILURE TO COMMUNICATE. IF WE ARE NOT WILLING TO TALK, LISTEN, AND ACT (HELL, MYSELF INCLUDED, BUT THAT'S TODAY'S REVELATION) THEN WE WILL MAKE BIGGER PROBLEMS BUILT ON SMALLER ONES. And we have. We are not acting as community. Breaking off with a "solution to the problem" instead of talking together as a whole, and possibly finding a solution that works for everyone, is not how a community works. AND SO THERE IT IS. WE ARE NOT A COMMUNITY IF WE ACT LIKE THIS. RE: Avali Nexus Forum 1: A Cold Phoenix - Corosar - 06-21-2015 I would lovee to point out that i stand by what intrebute says... there is no regulation here... it was much nicer back on the chucklefish forums because of the admins that were there beating those that needed it with a ruler when they were out of line... now... from what i have seen here... there is none of that... this forum does have its good parts... Rune brings me in when there are nice things to see and i thank him for that... but as much as i see good things in this group its vastly overwrote by the bad of the group... no punishments for shitty actions... its just depressing... and makes it hard to say yea i am an avali lover when the comunity loves throwing knives at each other whenever possible! Edit: and ehks goes ahead and takes out the ruler... nevermind RE: Avali Nexus Forum 1: A Cold Phoenix - Ehksidian - 06-21-2015 Action has been taken. They will be unbanned at this time tomorrow. Yelling about "issues" that are nearly inconsequential and turning them into gigantic piles of steaming shit is not okay. It's never okay. I am lenient as fuck, but maybe I shouldn't be since clearly people are less-than-pleased with that.

(06-21-2015, 09:07 PM)Ehksidian Wrote: Action has been taken. They will be unbanned at this time tomorrow. yeah... you'll need to use the temp-ban hammer a lot more often i feel. and that seems to be a generally shared feeling. maybe also find a few other mods willing to do the same. i'd be willing to stand up and become a mod, if it wasn't for biased views about certain people. i'd probably be a little too trigger-happy towards Rukii and Austin to be frank. not that their bad people, it's just the honest truth. while other's i'd have a hard time banning, even if they're being mean or stupid. but i can give it a try, though preferably in a sort of trial fashion.

It's just...I don't know anyone well enough to say "They will always make impartial judgements in terms of this stuff." Hell, even I can't say that about myself. it's just...ugh.

I know how you feel... i worry that because of my kind nature ..... normally anyway that i would not step up and land the hammer on those i need to if they are my friends... honestly though another consern is the fact that i would need to be here more... and as much as i love this place... i fear that it may be too much of a responsibility for me to take on. RE: Avali Nexus Forum 1: A Cold Phoenix - Gonzogonz - 06-21-2015 this is coming out of left field, but i found this and thought it might be something a little neat. everything you need to know about the Boys MK-1 anti-tank rifle... for those of you who have one of those laying around. RE: Avali Nexus Forum 1: A Cold Phoenix - Battle Bee - 06-21-2015 Y'all are taking this shit way too seriously, babes. Just let everyone do what they want to do. Forcing people into a single way of communication when they prefer different methods is like a government forcing the entire nation to abandon their lovely suburban houses and move to single, troubled city they do not enjoy being in. There's never been a serious community in the Nexus, ever. We're all just a bunch of people grouped together because of a mod we enjoyed. But now that the mod is kinda... dead... we're just having fun. So relax... ![]() ...and look at this cute bee.

Ehks if you want my recommendation for what it is worth, hold up a vote. a good one. if you want to make sure you get a decent person in place the community likes, watch a few of CGPgrey's videos on voting systems and the flaws and advantages behind them. or just have a classic first-past-the-post.
