Feral Heart

Slaaayed.

Minus two.

S'what you think. Thus I have the advantage.

Minus one.

Minus one.

Obviously you'd ignore those types of people. They're probably young, they're probably angry at being banned. It's
normal, and till they grow a pair, you'll have to learn to deal with their 'bashing'.

Now, I'm going to express my own opinion here. My own thoughts, though not all of them because they'll be too much for
little eyes to see.

I may go off topic a few times, so my apologies for that. There may be little to no constructive criticism in this post
directed toward the staff team or the overall community, it's just everything in my head, and it needs to come out
regardless of what anyone else thinks. Thank you.

I used to be appreciative of FeralHeart, back when it didn't feel like there were eyes everywhere watching my every
movement and sentence. Feels like there's a freaking CCTV camera everywhere nowadays. This 'game' was SUPPOSED
to be a haven, for everyone, where people's opinions ('long as they weren't causing an infringement of the rules) were
accepted. Now, if you don't behave in a certain way, i.e. shower the staff with waves of love and nuzzles and mini-
mod the hell out of FH because they're just too damn lazy to do it themselves; you'll be automatically ostracized and
dubbed a 'trouble-maker', when in actual fact, you're probably just a harmless creampuff.

This 'game' has changed. For me, for my friends, and for so many others that have yet to voice such. Just the overall feel
once I step in-game. E.g. In the first year of FH, I was rather carefree and always enjoyed it. Even sitting around doing
absolutely nothing and watching people chitchat, I was content. But now, whenever I go in, it just feels like I'm almost
forced into doing so for some reason or another.

And, so, I could care less about a 'game' where people are ridiculing and insulting each other for acting a certain way, or
typing a single sentence in capital characters and being received with a spammed flurry of 'Stop typing in caps plx or I'll
get a MOD to ban you, kfloofbye.' over and over and over again. There's no end to it. People don't even try to get along
with one-another anymore. There are little clique groups everywhere who attack others, yes, attack. The proof's in the
pudding, take one look at General for a few minutes and expect to come across a crossfire. Once, I saw a staff member
criticize a user in General simply because of their name when they were merely chatting, accusing them of attention
seeking and overall, showing them up in front of the whole map; of course, this would have been okayish if said staff
member was a regular member, but they weren't, they were a staff member, and they should be paving the
way for other members to follow suit and behave in a professional manner that's beneficial for all. and that doesn't
include bashing others just because they can and becoming a hypocrite; because once the shepherd decides to let the
wolves in, all hell breaks loose.

But of course, nowadays the staff might not openly be trolling people, but they always have their ALT accounts to spy on
others and troll whenever and however they see fit. ; D Yes, I'm talking to you.

Anyways, having been a long-term user here, it's pretty easy to tell that things have changed dramatically. And even
when these outbursts occur, sometimes I see the little group of staff members in Fluorite going, "General really annoys
me, floofs.". Oh, really? Then why don't YOU sort it out? Even something as simply as telling people to calm down, instead
of banning people left right and center without bothering to give warnings because it's just too hard for you, too much
effort and hard-work on your poor little souls. And that's another thing. Banning without giving warnings. Without
explaining to people or directing them to the rules. I can understand a zero-tolerance policy, but I don't see one
ANYWHERE. It's not even been written down. I'm sorry, but it's just lazy work on the staff's part. You're just members
with a kicky button now. So, I'm not pleased with the situation in-game. And the forums? Eh, not that hard. The contests
are mediocre and repetitive, and some different ones could be added alongside the typical preset ones, because, not
everyone is apt at making presets. The theater event thing is a nice touch; updates could be made a little more
interesting by involving the community more instead of being entirely informative, maybe ask for feedback on something
or have a little question to ask everyone instead of the same old yata yata snoredrool.

In conclusion, I appreciate CERTAIN staff members. You know, the ones that do their job and ban people who deserve to
be banned with a good and justified reason behind it. I also appreciate those who try to make the experience for
members a little bit more... well, more. Especially Razmirz, because the game wouldn't be here without him, and Tigg,
because she's just so much more open minded and responsible. I do not appreciate those who ban members for little to
no reason at all, other than the fact that they do not like that member. That's professional moderation there. No flaws
whatsoever. lolol. Heck, some staff members have even left because they didn't like how things are run... ran... ran.
Yeah.

So, with my incomplete rambling done, I'll be taking my leave along with the continuously growing number of people that
already have done and will be following suit in the future. I loved it, it was fun, but it's not anymore, and that's just it; it
won't get any better, because the same issues have been brought up again and again and again and some of the
staff(and users) are just far too egotistical to wrap their head around any of it or even bother to read at all. M'sorry if any
of you are now suffering from potential butthurt, but I know you'll just wipe that away by locking or deleting this thread
because of it. Diddums.

True, and she's going to. (:
