« on: July 22, 2020, 12:32:22 am »Hi, I'd like to take a moment to show you all something that a good handful of people are experiencing in the Feral Neighborhood server! This also effects new accounts, as I've learned while in the middle of typing this.

We made a thread a while back titled "Let's have a talk about censorship." which asked why was the mental health resource thread that xSpirit made in December suddenly deleted. Everything eventually delved into how Feral Heart staff are abusing their powers to censor people who speak out against them. What happened to that thread? It got locked, so nobody else can talk about the unfair censorship happening on the forums. 2 more threads appeared after, one condemning the actions of Feral Heart staff's behavior ("Wow...") and another about how Feral Heart staff have possibly violated their own privacy policy ("privacy policy concerns"). What happened to those threads? They didn't just get locked, they also got moved to a board that only Feral Heart staff can see, thus censoring the situation further by hiding everything that happened. Right now, there's 2 more threads up, "Imagine Proving a Point" and this one. Everything has been backed up with screenshots and put on the Wayback Machine.
This right here in just 2 of the images I gathered out of all the ones being shared in the server, is BLATANT censoring. You're not even trying to hide it anymore and it's repulsive and appalling. I have no other words for how this situation makes me feel. It sparks a kind of sadness inside of me, especially seeing how in one thread you told a member that there is no need to be rude to those with opposing views because when you open a discussion thread, you must be open to discussion .
Feral Heart staff.
We want to believe in you. We want to trust you. But right now.... we can't.
You guys are corrupt, unprofessional, and have been consumed with power. Your hearts are filled with a lust to control.
Despite all this, we do not hate you and do not have ill intent for you or this game. The rouges who have sent death threats are not us and are not represented by us and we actively agree that those actions are terrible and we condemn those people. But this is not meant to be weaponized against us and this does not invalidate our genuine concerns and criticism. If the rouges are affecting you this badly, please step down from your position and away from your device and come back with a calm, rational head.
Please clean the wax out of your ears, wipe the sleep from your eyes, and pay attention (That may sound rude but that's not the intention). We aren't asking much of you. We are trying our best to give you a chance, even when met with such passive aggressiveness and poor responses. Communicate with us, the community, and with yourselves (including you, Razmirz). There are no more excuses, exaggerations, hyperbole, sugarcoating, jokes, nothing.
Unban the others and let's have a direct conversation about this.
If anything in these posts gets hidden/removed/deleted or any of these actual posts gets hidden/removed/deleted... you're proving our point.
If this thread gets locked, hidden, and/or deleted... you're proving our point.
Do not turn this into a "dictatorship".
