Nobody flicks me in the butt without my consent

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

My current pet peeve is anons using the rpanons/wankgate threads to complain about the mods without first contacting them.

http://amatmods.dreamwidth.org/28023.html

Use it. Complain to us when they don't listen to you. All of this whining is making my eyes roll so hard they're spinning.

Same thing goes to people complaining about characters that they haven't critted via HMD yet. Use the freaking HMD, that's what it's there for, and if their reaction is bad then whine at us.

I swear that would cut down on at least half of the moronic posts that have been happening in this game thread lately.

but if we use that kind of logic, this game will look wank free!!!!

we can't have that, amat has a reputation to maintain.

I did once. They never listened or did anything. Big ole waste of time so I say complain away.

Then please complain about that specific issue they ignored you on, that is worthy of discussion.

Don't complain about every issue ever when you don't have the gumption to actually offer them feedback on a regular basis because you had one bad experience that you aren't even giving us deets on.

But anon if they shared deets on it then they'd know and send all their friends to her house with baseball bats to get revenge etc etc

Really none of this seems very Amat specific though. You could basically just copy-paste this thread into any other game tread and i wouldn't seem out of place. Sadly.

Pretty much. There's always someone who feels like they've never been heard. Sometimes it's justified, sometimes not. Without the context we really can't say here, and the anon probably won't post it because they might feel it 'tips their hand' and makes it obvious who they are. Kind of a catch 22.

Either way, I think it still should go without saying that you're better off trying to politely contact the Amat Mods and offer feedback. If I were betting, they probably don't get half the suggestions we think they do.

Wait. You're peeved because anons bitch about mods not listening?

I'm being serious when I ask this: do you not know the history of this game?

(Anonymous) 2013-05-06 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
That's not what they said at all. They're peeved that people bitch about things without contacting them. "My current pet peeve is anons using the rpanons/wankgate threads to complain about the mods without first contacting them". Ie, the mods were never given a chance to listen in the first place. But they also said, and I quote, that players should "complain to us when they don't listen to you." Which is the exact opposite of what you're tacitly accusing them of saying.

Then I'll recant and question this: Have the moderators become approachable individuals since the Zodion schism?

DA

(Anonymous) 2013-05-06 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
It's a whole new set of mods since Zodion and I've found them perfectly approachable over the past year and a half especially. While the one I was most comfortable with stepped down, whenever I've left feedback on the appropriate channels, they've always gotten back to me within a couple of days, acknowledged the problem, and explained to me how they will try/are trying to fix it.

This has mostly been for minor stuff, but it makes me comfortable with the thought of going to them with larger problems if I ever had any.
