Wyrom Announcement:

[Fortybox]

At least here people had the ability to tell him when they do stupid shit without getting moderated. Not that he ever listened or did anything but be defensive on a good day and dismissive on a...well, on most of the days.

Well he can not listen or do anything over there. The cool part of the PC was that you could say what you really wanted to say without the officials shutting you up.

Um, isn't having time4fun over there a good thing? One less annoying idiot to worry about.

I just mean the irony that she was oh so worried about what would happen to the PC then first chance she gets she moves over there anyways, even after she got her wish of me bowing out of being a mod.

I mean seriously. From what I've seen people have been mostly pleasant to Wyrom over here. Sure people have sometimes said something to him they couldn't say on the officials, but those have been in the vast minority of responses to his posts. Shit, I had like a 100 page thread dedicated to me because -I- was being harassed on LNet, then that harassment carried over to the PC, and you don't see me crying and demanding a safe space for my fee fees.

Fuck's sake.

Do you need a safe space from safe spaces?

It's strange watching the worst people in PC sit around and talk about how terribe other people are.

Why aren't you resting comfortably over at your new space?

Hey, the only person I've talked about is Wyrom! And I don't know if he's a terrible person, just that he's...you know...defensive, dismissive, and often terribly unprofessional.

Wyrom can't control this forum. That's the "problem."

Here's a post of his:

Someone pointed something out to me that I want to make sure is clear. The officials (forums.play.net) are still the main communication outlet for GemStone IV. I’m moving away from the Players’ Corner. We tried it out, but I need a little more structure. These forums offer that.

There are a few places I’d like to support where myself and other GameMasters can communication with our players. Here. The GemStone IV Slack channel. And some Discord servers. It will be slow, but updating how we communicate will only benefit the game. Improving our staff culture is important.

Structure = control

Why are you creating such a hostile forum environment by saying "worst people"?

[Taernath]

Those forums have a terrible layout. I think they might even be worse than the officials, and that's saying something.
