The results with FeralHeart's role-playing no longer carries out what it's ambitions were and I am disappointed with the way Admins have run and carried out this game's performance without good thought. It is truly a shame that I cannot even criticize MODs because I can get a ban, and so will others if they dare speak up for themselves.

Most of what I needed to say to you Padgze is written up above. As for mods banning you for speaking up that's ridiculous. We don't ban people for speaking their mind but as a said above we do ask that you are respectful when you do so. Rule breaking & down right disrespect is ban worthy but not opinion sharing. If we just banned people for speaking their minds everyone who has posted in this thread would be banned. Don't be silly.

Actually, believe me or not, it is considered to be 'disrespectful' to the MODs and thus the MODs may ban that person for being disrespectful to a MOD - When the person wasn't even directly speaking to a MOD. Because of some opinions by some people would be offensive to a MOD if they heard it, their natural reaction is a simple ban. Some people have experienced this issue and I assure you that this is the way it is these days. Even though the feedback and opinion would be negative, it is a sad fact that no matter how hard they try not to offend or disrespect a MOD about it, they will likely be banned anyway. So to say, if you were in Ghost-mode running around the Plains and saw two people communicating with each other, minding their own business, but then talk about MODs and talk about anything about them, but more specifically if they were talking about them in a negative way sharing their opinions and agreeing with each other. If they were giving negative opinions about you, would you ban them? Because that is what it usually is. This major experience played a while back when Red RaVage was mistaken to be 'trolling' and when any member began to criticize the MOD for banning one of their members for absolutely no reason, they too would be banned, because they were disagreeing with their actions. I won't really name any names.

Now you also said "Admins have run and carried out this game's performance without good thought." I'm very disappointed with that statement because that is not true at all and it's very inconsiderate of you to state such a thing. We staff constantly work to make the mass of the user base happy, it's why we are always coming up with new ideas for contests & community events, etc. The choice to remove general was no different. We had plenty discussions together of it's pros & cons and ways to help everyone since we know plenty of the good users like the RPers had to make sacrafices as well as the people who used general respectfully to chat etc. We pay close attention to this thread even if we aren't always responding on here. None of your voices go unheard so please stop painting the staff out as cold & uncaring because we are not. We are trying to make everyone happy at our own expenses.

They've had their ups and downs. The greatest one is the removal of the Bad Token, as the Bad Token was a really irritating fault. whilst attempting to log in. It would last up to 2 hours considering on how many players, however, Kudos to Razmirz for rectifying this issue everybody is pleased about it gone. Perhaps I should've been a little more considerate what I stated as well, something more like the lazy moderation (But not all the time, this depends on the Mod's mood) and the prejudice/grudge against some players. If you have had plenty discussions about the removal of General chat, then that is not the best discussion so far as not many people were even aware of it being discussed. It should have been made public for the FeralHeart users to see if they would appreciate General chat as removed from the game. It is only a shame that it was announced of a planned removal by the time it was removed. Now looking back, you can see many players disagreeing that the removal was good. I'm going to leave FeralHeart soon as I cannot find many role-plays anymore to keep up with the fun. Wetpaint isn't even my style of role-playing since they speed role-play, and FeralHeart was the only place for paragraphed turn based role-play - Until now it is ruined for me and many other role-players. Many more people will wake up and see that the removal was bad, even though they though it was good at first. Until they wake up, I do thoroughly advise to bring it back since the removal just does not work at all. You cannot keep everybody happy but by the looks of things now it seems you've kept a lot more people unhappy than happy now.

P.S. My criticism of Moderators does not mean all the Moderators are considered to have negative influence. Some actually do their job properly and respectfully.

I'm going to set my opinions here and speak out for myself and others that agree that taking out General was actually a bad idea.

The reason why, on what I believe, is because it has dramatically altered the FeralHeart role-playing world. This sort of impact is unacceptable to us role-players. With the General chat removed, this is as it follows:

- General chat removed would mean less role-plays to find.
- General chat removed would mean it is very difficult to find a role-play that finds your interest.
- General chat was a morally 'good' side to interact with other role-players.
- General chat was a very useful tool for advertising, thus the large increase of role-playing activity.
- General chat was an easy way to advertise compared to spamming movies.
- General chat was a place where most users are able to successfully grow their packs/prides/clans/other for role-playing.

These points prove that General chat was the vital and the heart of role-playing in FeralHeart, and just remember that FeralHeart's intention was to encourage role-playing, as stated by KovuLKD.

But with the removal of General chat, people are relieved. But the thing is, why were they relieved? They were mostly relieved because General chat proved to be a nuisance to some users. This nuisance was supposedly of spamming, trolling, and generally annoying topics.

However, those that were annoyed by General chat should've done the most simplest thing ever, turn it off.

The removal of General chat is absolutely absurd and illogical because this does not improve the environment in any way. You will still find trolls, annoyance, and spam. The only main difference what I am concerned about is the lack of Role-play activity and this is a huge problem with FeralHeart. Moderators, just simply accept you will have these sorts of feedback within the game always, no matter how hard you try to contain it - it is everywhere. (It is not your fault!)

Now I really hope that soon you can return General chat so it is really convenient for role-players on FeralHeart to find other role-plays through advertisement. It is really stressful to see the movies flow roughly fast and not knowing the distinctive role-play. The only thing to find a role-play these days is to click on any movie without knowing what it probably is.

But of course, the reason to remove General chat was because some people thought it would be a good idea to remove General chat. I don't believe that these people gave second thoughts about how the impact will desecrate FeralHeart even worse, and even if they did, they didn't take things into consideration before the act took place. It is always nice to warn others and have a sort poll/petition to remove FeralHeart's general chat and giving the reasons WHY in full detail as possible. But the way this went on, it was complete ignorance as there was no warning to when General chat was going to be removed. Instead, it was carried out by those that only listened to one side of the community and not the other.

The results with FeralHeart's role-playing no longer carries out what it's ambitions were and I am disappointed with the way Admins have run and carried out this game's performance without good thought. It is truly a shame that I cannot even criticize MODs because I can get a ban, and so will others if they dare speak up for themselves.

Please consider the return of General chat for the survival of role-playing. If you are really wanting to maintain less trolling and spamming in General chat, at least do something more appropriate that doesn't destroy the Role-play.

Pros and Cons for removing, but in the end, it was a bad choice.

FeralHeart's intention was to "encorage adventure and RolePlay!"

You have all probably noticed that role-playing is dying out, being oppressed, because General chat is dead. (Very arduous to find role-players that are interested now.)

Then again, when General chat was alive, most role-plays were absolutely terrible. I couldn't stand the stench of uncreative ideas and dramatic OOC terms that ruined the genre and the spirit.

General chat - dead = arguing, rage, little kids crying behind their screen.

General chat - alive = same thing, just more annoying in-game.

Who is to blame?

Lmfao wolf-speak.

Anybody that uses wolf-speak must be pretty lonely and just want to be smart. Well, they might as well go to summer school and learn the actual basics of synonyms before they spout off some words so to say with their pseudo-intelligence. Waste my time in role-playing. Might as well go back to Wetpaint soon.

These kids that use wolf-speak are really arrogant when it comes to asking why they even use it.
