It's what we all know, what most of us love, but some of us have slowly grown to detest. It's the overpopulation of pointless, borderline spam in the General chat, most often seen in Flourite. Now most of the time I'm pretty easygoing about it. But during those moments where it begins to irk me, I politely suggest the others to gather and speak in Local or Group, and that often ends in a riveting half-hour debate against 90% of whoever happens to be there. I've heard a couple of mods tell me that General was intended for RP advertisements, help with the game (such as finding something on the map), and things that relate directly to the game. However, much of that ends up buried in the mass of pointless posts like "I LIKE CUPCAKES" or "KITTENS" or something that no one really needs to know. Again, usually it's not that big of a deal, but I'm quite the RP addict myself, and I know it's a bit disheartening when you put some time into a quality advertisement that's seen for less than a second. Plus, I've seen all too often where the conversations on General have gotten really inappropriate really fast. I'm a teenager, I'm amused by a bit of joking, but I don't want to witness that awful 'cybering' trend, and I'd like to think I'm not alone on that one.
As for a solution, I'm not too sure, other than a few suggestions that could pretty much only be accomplished by KovuLKD himself. From what I've seen, very few mods (only one that I've actually seen) have ever tried to enforce the integrity of General. I understand that mods don't get paid in any way, nor can they be in one area all the time. I'm just requesting some sort of solution.
Thank you for your time.
