RIP General

[Larka98]

Previously, though, groups were easily able to get more then six, like 10 - 40 members. you should remember that most of General was not just cursing, spamming, trolling and all that..
The text space is limited on videos, some cannot open them and it looks awful on chat.
Plus i cannot go online for a moments without someone coming up and being like: Hey! join my pack? It is, personally, unorganized, confused, and annoying i cannot just get on. Isn't FeralHeart for Roleplay? And meeting new people? You cannot do that easily or quickly.

The idea of a party chat is annoying aswel, i ran round flourite the other day once, and i had twenty requests. It is again, unorganized. Yes, you can go to SB, but it is too laggy for most computers. Not everyone can afford fancy things

purchase a higher RAM card (overclock)

Not everyone can do this or afford to.

just shrink your Window size for FeralHeart.

This should not have to be done. It doesn't display the same and it can mess with some peoples eyesight. A few members i have seen have mentioned that this causes 'ghosting' of the screen.

I believe, yes there's spam ETC, but you can honestly pick though it with a skim of your eye. The good outweighs this in the fact that this is a game made to Roleplay and communicate

[Faith.]

I said what I said because it's been 42 pages of anger or sadness or "I'm leaving" Or arguing. 42. pages. That's 611 post, arguing or being mad or sad or quitting.

I have been reading exactly those 42 pages, and you were one of those who were arguing and saying the game is going to die because of this decision. So I am guessing your going to continue bickering with the mods until one of you break? I have agreed with some of your posts and their some of your posts that I do not agree with. You kept saying the same thing that your role play is dying because of this. The only one who can keep it from dying is you. If you are not the leader of your rp and whatever reason that she or he refuses to recruit more members. Then you should really convince your leader to recruit or just leave the group and find another.

I will surely miss general.
Some people are shy to go up to people and say hi.
And as many people stated, the movie advertising is tough. Much less players will be bothered to click on every movie clip.
Trolls and spamming in general?
Hahaha, that happens in every chat, local, movie etc.
General was the main target of trolling, which was good.
Why?
If people do it in local, mods can't be everywhere to check out users.
On the other hand, in general mods could be there to warn users that spam.
Not everyone has the guts(or maybe the person is just lazy? xD) or knows how to report someone.
As for movies, I honestly don't think anyone cared when general was up about the movie spamming, but just simply turned them off. After all, from what I have noticed, the movies used to be mostly about people derping and dancing in them. Now, trolls can troll people much easier with the movies, as they only have to click a button multiple times to spam.
So, all in all i have to say that trolls and spammers are everywhere, not just general.

I didn't mean to be rude or anything.

I do agree with your post but there is a little parts I do not agree with. I am one of those players who do not go up to others and say hi. I am also one of those players who do not care about reporting unless it is my business. However if you wish to make friends on here you have to break out of that silence unless you invite your real friends. Those who did not know how to report, how hard is it to ask someone how to report or get on the actual website for once?

People need to tell their opinions.
It's not anger or sadness, well maybe some. But not all, some are just plainly telling their opinions xD(Most I believe)

I am not saying keep your opinions to yourself. If you have your opinion then let it out so everyone can see how you feel about this.

Mhm, I agree with you Party except for one point.
In my opinion, I do believe it concerns people because it's the game they play.

I am glad some of you are actually taking my advise, that makes me a bit happy... I do not get what you are trying to say here though...

Yes but some prefer to make friends through general. I guess you have a point, that might encourage them to be more outgoing.
As for the last part, I was talking to PartyRockin in case you were confused.
He/she said it does not concern people(From what I understood) about the general change, and I disagree because users make the game and they play it so I believe it does concern them.
Edit: Oh and for the second quote I was talking tot he guy who said 42 pages of anger and sadness, and yes I do agree with you on that.

If you keep on top of your computers updates it should be able to run this game fine.

[shusuke]

Not if it's a really old computer. Updates or not some computers just aren't built to handle some things. Mine can't handle games beyond emulated N64 games. Anything more and it overheats and dies, even with the cooling pad I've managed to get.

Some computers simply can't handle some things (*coughdellcough*) due to their makeup or their age.

[Raxoremys]

All this "keep your computer up to date" business is sounding just like the deviantART submit page update. Not everyone can update their computers for various reasons(money constraints, the computer's age and compatibility with newer parts, etc.), so it's really not fair to say it. The fact remains that for one reason or another, movies simply will not work for some people, and the new lag levels will cripple their computers. Even mine(which was pretty manly when it was new a couple years ago) is having trouble nowadays. Bonfire was always a source of dismay in the lag department, but it's getting difficult to be anywhere near NZ or stonebridge too. To those who are doing fine with this update, fantastic. I'm happy for you. But you have to understand, not everyone will have your luck, and many members are going to have continuing issues no matter how well you might be doing.

[Killian]

By 'update' I didn't mean going out and buying new parts, I meant just keeping up to date with software updates. You don't need to buy anything. I had trouble with lag before, I did all my updates and now I'm smooth like butter on FH.

[shusuke]

That was you. Not everyone is as lucky.

I keep my clunky old geezer of a 2007 laptop up to date and as good as possible and it won't run crap because it overheats. Some computers simply don't have the technology in them for some updates as they age.

It's not always about updates or upgrades, it's also about the computer itself, and some of them just don't have the design to run some games very well. It's why people that are able to customize their computers for the best possible performance in what they want to do, because normal computers can have issues handling it. It's also why there are gaming computers with specific chipsets and technology specifically for running games.

Some people are just unlucky and have a computer that can't handle a game very well, and oftentimes there are factors that make it near impossible to remedy or change it. :/

I looked back a few pages and saw several people saying, "stop complaining and the decision will be made sooner".

This community is never going to stop complaining until it gets what it wants because it wants it. There is seriously no stopping people complaining about General being gone, and I'm pretty sure the staff would know this, because I sure do. I doubt they'll want to be spammed with complaints and questions until the end of FH, so eventually they'd have to make the final call.

I mean seriously. This cannot go on forever or else everyone will eventually leave. It may take a long time, but it'd happen eventually. I really think this drama needs to end. First it was FH about an unannounced removal of General, and then an unannounced change of Game Grumps when Jon left to go with his girlfriend in NY or something, and was replaced while Steam Train was also for some reason added to the channel.

Honestly, all of this drama about unannounced changes everywhere needs to STOP. I just want something to be done so the things I love can be enjoyed again.

Shusuke, it sounds like you just need to clean your fan. I had a friend that had over heating issues with his laptop, his fan was caked in dust. Give that a try.

[shusuke]

Cleaning the fan would work better if my computer wasn't a Dell. Dell laptops are notorious for having terrible cooling systems, and mine is a fine example of it [especially with how old it is]. I've cleaned the fan several times and it still overheats because the fan only keeps one side of the laptop cool. A cooling fan doesn't help as much either since the side that isn't cooled is the side that produces the most heat.

It's an old clunky computer that can't run anything for more than 10 minutes and I've grown to accept it and plan to replace it whenever I can. Knowing my budget that'll probably be in another 6 years. xD
