Questions: How did you just find out about the block glitch when its been a thing since the start of the game? Why can't you tell us about the road map? Wouldn't that be a risky move to surprise us again? When will the moderators in training be promoted? Why are you making this thread if you are temporary? Will the troublesome and inactive mods/admins be demoted and replaced?
Concerns: Lag. My computer gets really hot when playing feral heart. Also the fact mods have been confirmed to watch movies while watching chat. Why not interact or step down if they are so bored?
Suggestions: Get rid of maps that no one uses. AKA the underwater one.
Other: I am not trying to be rude or pushy. We just need answers.
I don't want to sound rude, but I COMPLETELY agree with this. I personally think Spicy deserves to post this, however, I do NOT like that MOTS get to be involved into staff related stuff. With our community being able to choose who we want as electives, you don't know who is getting picked. Which means, it's a risky thing. Staff do staff things, MOTS are elected to be looked up to and seen by many as someone who should be recognized for what they have done for the community. That doesn't mean they should be doing things staff get to do because that's the staffs job. And I also don't want to sound rude because I love the current staff, with many of them being my friends. BUt I have noticed, that they don't really come on. I've never heard about the movie thing or them being bored, but I do think we should rethink our choices a bit for who we choose and if we really want to commit to something, especially if we really want this game to be as big as we want it to be. Like I said, no hate, this is MY opinion and i'm saying it because I believe we need to realize this. Thank you for sharing you opinions, Cilantro. I don't think you're sending hate at all. I mean, this thread did ask for our opinions, so...
I think Faewyn, you're exactly right. However MOTS originally started doing staff duties while I was still on the team. I don't mind them making seasonal party posts and things like that, but MOTS are intended, or were intended, to bridge staff and community to create more transparency on where the game is going. MOTS were supposed to fill in the community on what staff plans are, and where the game is being taken, while also pitching ideas directly from the community to the staff team.
It seems, to be quite honest, MOTS has been turned into a handy-dandy tool for doing more work and still keeping things hushed down for more surprises. This isn't the way it should be used, to be quite honest. So let me make my Feedback more eccentric.
Questions: Why are plans still in the process or hidden? Why is staff not sharing the ideas with the community, and to be honest, why isn't the community voting on things to be prioritized for the game, or at least voted into as a project to work on? That way you get an idea on what the community wants to see next.
Concerns: MOTS has turned into a bit of a vip-club rather than the bridge between community and staff that was needed way back when. Everything still remains as a surprise or as a secret. I am afraid continuing down this path well end up as another 1.15 scenario. We all know how that went down.
Suggestions: Create a roadmap for the community on where the game plans to be taken, stop being hush-hush about plans, and allow MOTS to share plans with the community and also showcase their ideas.
Other: I think I covered that enough. Alpha is exactly right.
