For the last 3 months, there has been a fair of unacceptable behavior within our community. This has been said before a dozen times as this is the internet and there are and always will be people like this. The 'staff' knows this, the community knows this, and the causers know this.
As of lately alot of members have brought up these facts to attention via either PM or IM:
A- People don't know the rules in-game, the rules should pop up in-game.* Sure, but it's kinda like giving a child a picture book yet telling them to read the words first. If they don't take the time to understand what they are getting into they have whats coming at them.*
B- There aren't any/enough (active) mods in-game online for hours at a time.* This can be said, but realize that these people have lives to - and I could only imagine how tough it is to pick new trustworthy &
professional ones to support the game. This does indeed cause hours of stacking unsolved drama to rise though.*
C- The famous "Just use the block button"Now this is one thing I'm guilty of telling people to do alot, and although it WORKS 100% - this doesn't stop blocked person from further violations of rules, especially when it comes from embarrassing/harassing your character further ( even if you can't see them). Read B.
D- I can't play this game anymore, I quit.*Well that's nice of you to give up on the suppose '
-Removed by moderator- community' that you YOURSELF been part of so long. And if you just joined, then just quietly leave because you're not helping us much at all make it better.( or running my mouth around claiming that another game will be ' teh better erp derp' when it isn't even released yet .) But to be fair, from the way things are going I've thought of going into hiding myself, but instead I wanna try and improve it and make it better instead of
-Removed by moderator- about it.. (: *
E - Dimensions No
1- As Gem said, this will make it even HARDER for in-game mods, there is not enough of them and none of them can be on all the dims at once. This is basically giving trouble makers more power to hide from mods.
2- "They aren't going to be added." ~ Kovu , the maker of the game
3- Kinda forces you to learn how to make a map and be creative like the game is about, durhur.

Solutions then?Here's a list we have gathered so far
~
Chat Limit ( The chat detects spam and automaticaly prevents the spammer from typing for 2 mins.)
~
Rule Quiz ( a test for the in-game rules before signing up, required to pass before making an account.)
~
Report Section ( ~ Done ~)
~
Make Maps ( Roleplaying, Calmer than default maps, and people will love you for your creativity)
~
Rules ( in-game that pop up for every new account/ when you first log in)
~
Not -Removed by moderator-. Be happy. And kick back-- The game is out for our own enjoyment ( *claps* ilu Hakuri )
~
Chat Logs ( an optional feature for members that logs texts from the chat and saves. Easy for reporting or back-tracking people you've met.)
~
Map Maker/Owner Control ( options for the maper maker to Kick, Ban, etc - for there own maps since mods can't be in every single user made map.)
~
Time Shifts(Since staff live across the world so maybe fill them online according to time zone.)
~

With this said, please feel free to share how you feel about this and perhaps even some more ideas instead of blah-blah-cry wall text rants. No, this thread isn't for your to rant. It's for solutions for this community, for the community that YOU are part of ( and some of you tend to forget your part of it, while your going around calling FH community idiots, trolls, retards , noobs, and what ever else - then what the hell does that make you?)
Thanks for reading ^_^
