Anyone who feels that this is calling out GM's or expecting more from them that is reasonable. It comes off as disingenuous and unfair to the people who are politely asking for some change or transparency which I believe is completely fair. No one is calling for the heads of the GM's or stating that they need to be removed or displaced. There is no vitriol or hate being thrown with the explicit desire to hurt.
People want cleaner avenues of communication, they want to feel like they can talk to these people. I only feel truly comfortable speaking to Balthie as a friend, and or Slydria at times. It's nice that people with tenure had the time and place to come up with these people but. A lot of us didn't, and we aren't afforded the opportunities to know them as people the same way others have.
I feel Appo is asking for an olive branch, or just something to bridge the gap on the GM's end of things. A newsletter, a more public ban list with discrete and brief reasons. I don't think it's fair for people to deride these requests as attacks on the GM's.
They're requests to understand the people on the other end of the screen and having already spoke at length in the previous thread I have nothing more to say or anything new. I feel that after everything it's just a lot of things being twisted into something it's not. People are allowed to have an opinion, they're allowed to voice their concerns in a healthy manner on a public forum. They shouldn't be derided, or called out as aggressors. And most of all I don't think they should be called antagonists or clowns.
I think that's ugly.
Do with this what you all will, I hope that people will put forth constructive alternatives and build up ideas to bridge this divide. Rather than tearing eachother down. I think we've done that enough.
