Feral Heart

Well since this is a Bug, why dont you come to us earlier?
How can we take care of this obviously big problem if no one tells us?
Obvious nothing happens if no one tells us.
I will tell this to Raz, it will get taken care of.

Edit: Mentioning this Problem in other Threads or Ingame dont helps to solve the Problem.

not tell it sooner?
i opened thread after thread on every FH forum i could find...
here too. just got ignored.
they were all in the help section. i thought now opening one here, in deneral discussion would earn more attention. i was right....
and there had been threads created by other users as well, having the same problem...

Edit: Raz knows, i told him already my problem. he didnt really seem to take it as a bug. its how the forum is "protected". but its just causing pretty much problems and annoyance to users.

hi guys
i have a problem from the beginning of fh.
and i would love to hear your opinion and thoughts about this matter...
on the forum, sometimes i cant post my messages, or topics because my IP is blacklisted.
like this thread, im sure i have to reload the page a couple of times before it is as kind letting me post.
im sure im not the only one having this problem.
-doesnt let you post, have to reload many many times.
-if accidently logged out of forum, cant get back on, because it says: access denied, IP blacklisted
-if logged out and cant get back on, if you have questions or a problem, it cant be answered because you cant get help on the forum

it is just annoying.

everyone who doesnt know about blacklistings because they are lucky:
Blacklist means a list of IPs, which had been reported of various reasons(like reported for spam sending, virus sender etc.), and so every site that uses this "security" database, wont let these IPs register, post messages, log in etc.
So, if you are sharing IP with someone, you can get randomly on this list as well, and then in the next moment you cant log in or post.

i say this is a awful "security" system.
why?
1. there are hundreds of innocent users who cant register or post. nor play because they cannot create account, because they are accidentally sharing the IP with a reported site
2. new spam senders appear in a matter of moments, so the blacklist is useless against new ones.
3. many spam senders and virus sender sites dont exist anymore, but the IPs are still on the list
4. its super annoying

i understand that FH just wants to secure themselves from spam bots, and virus senders... but
this is the MOST ridiculous solution ive ever seen!
ive NEVER seen any other forum use this "security" database. i wonder why.. oh because it isnt 100% secure, and is annoying to users. and maybe they do know about ppl sharing IPs nowadays. its really common now.

best solution, that every other forum uses to prevent spambots:
we all know it...
the good old random letters or numbers generator (one of them called captcha). it wont register computers automatically. so this means: no spambots.
and about virus senders.. new ones always appear, and they use proxy so useless anyway.

so i say: this whole blacklist should be removed and let users post and register peacefully.

aah yes, another thing i hate...
"grammar nazis"... sorry for the expression but...
its okay you need to understand the other, after all how can you rp, and i do understand and i dont really recommand rping in chatspeak but...
some ppl and groups take this too far...
i mean, i cant join some interesting rps because:
i dont start my sentences with capital letters.....
no comment....
this is like.... just no comment.
and sometimes i cant join a rp because:
i dont put ' <- this thing at doesnt, isnt, cant etc...
please... you can understand right?
never anyone complained before how i type, as far as i can tell, you guys can understand what im typing here....
and this whole thing just hit me a bit... its the first time i got rejected because of such a tiny thing. i was baffled to say the least.
english isnt my first language. and if i want to rp properly, i dont use ', or capital letters.. because what do they want actually from me?
1. to rp properly, and keep things interesting
2. or completely fall behind because im checking and correcting my grammar...

sorry if i offended anyone.. didnt mean to.
just my own opinion here, and its a rant thread...
ty for reading.

yeah, hyenas arent liked.
i have a hyena char too, and i like to around as loner, trying to join in a random rp.
with not much success, as ppl always look at me as intruder, and never a possible ally (if i go there with any other char, they greet me like anyone else)
basically if they do start a fight, the hyena would win against the wolves, considering their jaws are 100 times stronger than the canine ones. so one bite and they are down. if the ppl are lions, and males, then better run. (just some rp suggestions lol)
ut yeah, hyenas do have a kinda bad reputation. and its because of the Lion King thing. It says hyenas are bad, and dumb. while they are actually one of the smartest animals on earth.

I Believe that general chat is only meant for advertising, but can be used for normal chat. some people may Overuse the chat with unwanted news and spam, which destracts Roleplays and also can be Annoying To Other players Or the Mods.
Its quiet hard to say what to do. :/
People could always just turn off general if it annoys them that much..

basically what you just said goes into the same category as "to avoid trolls and abusers, there is the block button". this wont solve anything in my opinion(ignoring isnt the best solution). but yes, as Twilia said. this is not the topic.

So basically what most said:
- advertising
- asking for help (forum and game related)
-little announcments
-small, or big but meaningful conversations.

what not to use for:
-spam
-abuse
-trolling
-bullying
i also would like to put here:
- talking to mods about subjects that arent FH related, and the mod wont talk back (saying here like: i love you mod! come party mod! etc.) stop spamming them, they wont talk back. this basically hinders them in their work, and in my opinion should be punished.
(yet again saying.... sorry if i offended anyone... didnt mean to)
