The core of that moderation approach has been blatantly stolen by the DevStrike team, and is IMO one of the reasons that this forum Doesn't have a lot of toxicity. DevStrike doesn't have as many active members as the old forums, but we also don't average >700 posts a day for the team to review, and I personally send a LOT less warnings than I used to, even as a percentage of posts read. ....with all due respect, nope. If anything, the happy-merry couple pretty much destroyed NA, in that aspect. Mercilessly enforced the company line, tho lets say, in a "cute" way, the baton was dressed as a sugar stick 🙂 They were given free hand , IF the Yukon debacle wouldn't repeat. So...no. I was there before and after( for a while). This place, luckily, is akin to what was before and in some aspects even better. As for toxicity......here we don't have fights which needs ro be won. We are among peers, we discuss things. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people tend to forget how much we owe her. Operations never would have returned, if the Yukon debacle would not have happened. Same for class based brawls and a LOT of other things. But all that came with a great personal cost to her, which, again, tends to be overlooked by some people.

Kynami Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 The thing with Discord is that the control of a server is entirely within the hands of the owner. And there are plenty of things one can do to effectively rug pull any unwanted criticisms. And lets be honest, the WeeGee party line is all about maximizing income. Thus anything that could interfere with that by tarnishing of image is swiftly swept under the rug if at all possible. So to them its great because even if the automated tools aren't 100% effective the general complaints about something are completely lost in the noise within a day. Especially if they take steps like making prior communications within a channel non-searchable because users are not allowed to see the history of the channel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlooky Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 So.... this thread can be summarized as a bunch of boomers mad discord isn't a constant source of on topic, walls of text discussions?

I think I'm getting your point, but to me ( if he is who I think he is) is more the current iteration. I mean... I know that he has prior history, but I'm a bit ignorant about it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edited 1 hour Eh... It's just an excuse to drink. It's to remind us that this game is for fun...it's not serious to us, not a matter of money making, etc. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
