✗PROBLEMS





P R O B L E M S

If you have a problem and you can't reach one of the mods, please comment here. Feel free to comment if you have a problem with an action that a mod has taken. Mods may be in a game to keep the players in line and make sure they follow the rules, but players should feel comfortable about pointing out if a mod has made a mistake. We keep you in line and you keep us in line, right?

The comments WILL be screened & will be deleted once the problem is dealt with. Anonymous comments are allowed, but we'll need to unscreen them for you to see our reply.

I felt myself and another player were being attacked by other players. A different situation removed from the fact that I felt that the moderation was doing a job at moderating the HMD which they had a responsibility to moderate in a substandard fashion (aware that two mods were away, but if this was the case HMD should have been rescheduled clearly).

It is presumptuous for the moderation to always affirm that players are acting like moderation is attacking them. To be honest, it's happened three times with me and more times with other people.

I believe that the reason you are not receiving suggestions is that this thread is not pointed out to players as a venue (I had to hunt to find it), and that the way the thread functions itself is an issue. Comments are unscreened after 'dealt' with? And screening all comments does not allow players to leave anonymous comments. I know players who have suggestions but would worry about mod animosity based on those suggestions or complaints.

Regardless of 'general' happiness (and I'm a bit taken aback that you would describe me as a player as generally unhappy, or I wouldn't be playing here) if even one comment, complaint and/or suggestion is made regarding a point of moderation, 'so far alone' comment in question should be seriously considered and regarded. Out of respect for the players, each individual voice should be considered equally, along with the assumption of the fact that an individual comment does not represent an individual sentiment. It has been recently brought up in discussions that there is no arbitrary magical number, besides '1', which delegates the idea of importance.

Please seriously consider the suggestion of an unscreened suggestion box with anonymous posting available. I am sure that the idea of a suggestion box in lieu of an intimidating 'Problems' form would not be frowned upon by any players.

We will consider it, and we will unscreen this thread since the problem has now been addressed.
