This whole thread is just detrimental, when there are official channels maintained by the staff. Why should they need to check multiple places? Their time is donated after all, and this thread is just a undermining them making any progress with any of the issues brought forth here. They have a ticket system they use to manage anything that would be brought up here. Why not just use that? This whole threads existence is for whining so why bash it being used that way? Why not just let ACTUAL players of APOC determine through the proper system what the issues are directing the staff and not beat around this thread? Not even through reading this hilarious thread yet. So far this thread has produced individual discord/account/PCs as a form of attack. people constantly talking things out in a medium the staff aren't even going to bother with instead of an official channel, logical fallacies as a means of critique (fucking lol), regular violations of ic/ooc shit that was all ENTIRELY SOLVED through IG methods and motivations only, and a never-ending stream of complaints. It's good to know who these people are, at the very least. Got ppl who don't or hardly even play the game doing a lot of the trash talk. It all seems a bit absurd and pointless now. But I totally get why this thread is open; it's entertaining
The internet is serious business for some, but for others it's a game. We need the latter sort. Perma-death games will always lead to people getting upset, but it's only when this is a frequent issue that it becomes problematic. Like this erdlu dude, still going on about stuff that happened months ago after they goofed ig (i laugh thinking how they'd behave if they didn't fail miserably). That shit is genuinely strange
Also, did that psy guy suggest I stop posting to call out blatant lies against my person? Maybe have a friend over and show them this thread, see what they think. I regularly show my friends (irl not online) all this scandalous internet drama cuz it's funny. Might do you good.

Just because the cognitive dissonance is real...
1. Donating time = Volunteers = Not a defense or counter or relevant. 2. Policing where something is discussed = Not an achievable policy = Not a problem if you just don't read it and/or address concerns making the discussion redundant or obsolete. 3. You're not playing you can't have an opinion = People don't play politics or sports and they have opinions
Why are you trotting out rephrased ArmageddonMUD excuses on a board that formed -because- of those excuses. That's like anti-promoting the playerbase and staff of the game. I literally don't even follow the game even a teeny bit and I'm like well that's a bad sign.

3. You're not playing you can't have an opinion = People don't play politics or sports and they have opinions This needs to be picked apart a little. Of course anyone can have an opinion on anything, but it's a false equivalency to give the same weight to opinions from a guy who played a PC in the first few weeks (erdlu is a fantastic example of someone failing brilliantly in game then logging out near-perma and proceeding to bitch where he thinks ppl care) to one who has been consistently at it. The latter holds far more weight given they have more experience and are unlikely to have some axe to grind over an internet slight.
btw: not posting erdlu's char details etc like he did to me since i realise nobody gives a fuck. lol. god damn pedos.
Staff are quite happy with things as they are. We were bound to get a few wildcards given the ppl in this forum, but they seem to have been weeded out. Now it's just building. And it seems like it is going in quite a different direction to Arm. Just be ready for a slow burn at times.

I sincerely hope that Ikthe never makes the mistake of putting you in any position of authority in that game, nile.

Honestly, anyone posting here shouldn't be in any position of authority for a MUD. But I do appreciate your psychoanalysis.
EDIT: Also, do you have anything to add to my post? Or are you just shitposting some ad hominem, ironically in an attempt to have an unwarranted jab at me about being in authority?

PMs and a group chat are two different things. As it is a lot of this discussion could have been done on the Apocalypse discussion board so staff could see it and make changes or answer any questions. Also Psy plz use Tell. Its a very distinguishing feature you do so we all know it's you. It probably helps that there are only 3 or 4 players on at a time. Makes it a lot easier to bully the kid that you don't like. Staff have obviously seen and read this thread. Along with the handful of Apocalypse players who keep coming over and making dummy accounts to contribute to this very thread. I don't see any questions posed in this thread, but if there were, staff are welcome to post on this forum and address them unless Jcarter made some secret rule that we haven't been informed about! This thread was mostly about observations on the game that people were open to discussing until it devolved (multiple times). Hardly need dummy accounts. I'll post in this thread when I got time for the shits and giggles. I mean, the guy before spoke of cognitive dissonance and you acknowledged your basis for saying I coordinated a string of pro-Apoc posts was bullshit while also admitting that changed your mind about nothing.
We're still in COVID restrictions so this is fun sport on the side. I usually debate politics but finding fallacies etc is good fun in general.
So. With JCarter having no problem with Erdlu's alleged dummy accounts, let the games continue!

Erdlu alleged that in this thread, not me. Apparently he didn't go to you about it so, as I thought, it seems more like a half-baked attempt to poison the well.
And apologies if you think I put words in your mouth or was being passive aggressive. It seemed reasonable you would have read this thread and didn't comment when I raised whether it's appropriate or not for the sharing of others' account names/handles/PCs, so it implied you didn't mind. Irrelevant anyway. Run your forum how you like. But don't think I was taking some random swipe at you.

I read this thread today.
I now have an impression of Apoc's players and the gameplay there that is infinity worse than what I had yesterday.

I read this thread today. I now have an impression of Apoc's players and the gameplay there that is infinity worse than what I had yesterday. A very sane superficial reaction, tbh. It's like looking at reddit for Armageddon. Most ppl in this thread don't even play the game or tried, failed something or weren't given a present by the staff and left out of spite. This is a thread for lolz.
Besides, don't forget context, taking a thread about a MUD from a forum from a completely different MUD that is purely for complaining is jumping the gun big time. Check the context of this forum. This is all very natural. I've also happy to keep driving this thread into the ground. lol. BY the time the game is released this won't matter and the apoc staff will have gotten rid of a toxic demographic. But if you think a thread for apoc on a forum for armageddon is representative you are very likely going to have skewed understandings/expectations.

This was posted by ikthe in the apoc discord yesterday:
Kind of upset since I had high hopes for this but RL always comes first. Can only hope it does come back at some point.
