Yeah that was a bit uncalled for. Don't forget, your the customer and you pay for this gaming experience. Im glad you called the host out on it.

I'd actually be pretty pissed if I got that as a response if I were the GH. Don't forget, he's an authority figure and he gets paid to do his job.

So far every post in this thread reminds me of people being ticketed for speeding.

How come I'm being ticketed but the guy behind me isn't?!?! WAH!!

How come you're pulling people over for speeding instead of stopping terrorism?!?! WAH!!

etc.

It wasn't even an emoticon. It was just a poor attempt at chat-speak in a non-chatroom environment. I remember Eyes1, who used emoticons ALL THE TIME when he talked, and it used to bug the hell out of me sometimes. But he was fun to RP with so I usually let it slide. Things like:

Eyes1 says, "Hi there! :)"

I agree it was very petty of the staffer, but you probably would have felt less stressed if you had just let it go without any comment at all.

You of course do know that the GH in question wasn't on an assist or something else pressing after your tell, and was completely available to keep policing the thought net?

If you don't agree. Fine. Don't agree. But don't pull the Wahmbulance B.S. If that's all you have to do with your time, seek threads elsewhere and ignore me.If you don't agree with the GH. Fine.

It really annoys me to death, I'm glad they are focusing on the little things that help improve the RP environment. It's like painting over graffiti in New York city, small things that help stop bigger crimes.

Ilvane
06-15-2007, 11:23 PM
heh, whatever. I mean, when people sit in the center of town and talk about levels and AS and DS, that's a big problem.

Too bad they can't deal with that, rather than sitting around worrying about tiny things on a thought net that aren't incredibly jarring.

While I agree it may be annoying, that's not nearly as bad as some things that go on..and not really an issue as far as RP, just some people don't like it.

I guess we just disagree, I find it worse than someone mentioning what level they are and just about as bad as talking about AS/DS. I can't fault them for taking a positive step, just because they can't police everything doesn't mean they shouldn't try to police some of it.

At least you can admit it was a lame cover up. I wish he would have said something polite to the other person as well.

I hate when anyone does that kind of thing on the amunet, so hooray for the GH pointing it out.

Sean2 makes a good point here. Maybe the GH in GS is like being a cop in small town with NO crime. You gotta invent things to bitch about.

Also, complaining is okay by me as long as I can also chime in and say I think the GH's behavior was fine.

Ignot
06-16-2007, 09:23 AM
Your the customer. When a GH interacts with you you are either going to have a better impression of GS, the same impression as before, or a worse impression. In this case, you took offense to it and have a worse impression of GS and its hosts. What bugs me is the the GH/GMs act like we arent customers and act like we are children instead, IMO.

The down side about this is many people in GS fail to act like anything more then 40 year old children.

This reflects my feelings well enough. It isn't like he gave you a negative RPA.

Tolwynn
06-16-2007, 11:19 AM
What may also have happened was the host in question writing up his report for the interaction, as brief as it was. If he did the report right after, that would explain the comments right after not being attended to, much like a police officer can't pull over other all of the other speeders when they've got you on the side of the road.

If you're still really worked up over it? Write feedback, and tell them how you disapprove of this GH's actions. Most folks will chime in that doing so will accomplish precisely nothing, but the fact that even Jenovadeath managed to get a warning reversed would indicate otherwise.

I've been SENT a message from a GM before telling me to turn to the black net when selling.

I had rubbed my amulet and hit the selling macro before I realized that I was on the wrong channel. I immediately apologized on that channel, then turned to the proper one. Then the SEND came through.

Were there more important things that she could have been doing with her time? Yes.

Did it make much difference to me? Not really.

I had what I considered to be a legitimate complaint. Minor as it may have been.. I still took offense to it. I wasn't upset. I wasn't ranting and raving. I wasn't crying. I wasn't using a million exclamation points.I had what I considered to be a legitimate counterpoint. Minor as it may have been.. you were still hypocritical. Bob wasn't upset. He wasn't ranting or raving. He wasn't crying. He wasn't using a million exclamation points.

The only thing I had to say about the actual event was that the GH seemed polite. Everything else had to do with how you were handling dissenting opinions.

So welcome to the Players Corner, the place where many people bring their "legitimate complaints" only to realise (too late) that they are about to be torn to shreds, because their "legitimate complaint" was stupid as fuck.

I am starting to see the sad reality of why this particular section of the forum is used so infrequently. Apparently, anyone who has a complaint, minor or major, legitimate or not.. and no matter how reasonably it is presented.. you're accused of being a whiner and told to find gaming elsewhere. :nono:


Alternatively, I think perhaps some people have come to see the PC as a place they can dump on GS or its staff with impunity.

While its true that GS staff cannot censor here one must be ready to hear criticism of a situation or the actions therein not only on the part of Simu but of the players involved also.

Nemesis
06-16-2007, 09:12 PM
As far as I'm concerned, it's a non-issue. I have no desire to see my every post picked apart by people that have nothing better to do but paraphrase them and make lame attempts at insulting me.

I now see why, when I was given the link to this forum, I was told "There's some good technical information there, and good scripts, but I avoid posting like the plague."

Next time I shall be sure to thank the Host, pretend I'm all warm and fuzzy, and try to sound sincere when I thank him for the waste of my bandwidth.

I don't think anyone implied that is what you should have done. You are unfortunately reacting on pure emotions at this point rather than intelligence.

The reality of this situation is that several people felt that the GH was not doing a piss poor job by requesting that you not use :cough: on the amunet, even if they didn't send the same request to the other person doing the same thing right afterwards. They also disagree with you in that the GH should be spending her time doing something more 'worthwhile' in another area, as many of us do think that correcting things like a :cough: on the amunet is worthwhile and should be addressed.

While yes, some of the posters can be rather vicious in their opinions, you honestly are going way out in left field on your final post here. If you expected nothing but agreement in this thread, you are right, you shouldn't post. It just won't happen.

Nemesis

What I'm reacting to are people like Bob and Latrinsorm. Bob had nothing betting to say than WAAAAH, much like I've seen in many of his posts. And Latrinsorm felt it neccesary to begin mocking me. I suppose the straw that broke this particular camel's back was Nieninque's comment regarding my post to be "stupid as fuck".

I suppose unintelligence of others does force me to react purely on emotion.

Aaaahhahahahahaha. What I find funny is that the OP first accused the GH of having too much time on his/her hands, because the GH did something the OP didn't agree with. Then, when people failed to agree with the OP's opinion, then THEY also have nothing better to do than mock OP.

With all of OP's sensitivity to criticism, titling a thread "GameHosts that have nothing better to do" isn't exactly constructive in nature. As for the original complaint, it annoys the piss out of me when people *cough* or whatever on the thought net.
