Re: On the subject of Toxicity/Community Check-in (TWG)
Quote:
first of all toxic isn't an exaggeration it accurately describes what the community is like during games. there's a culture here of hostility and deprecation of people's characters or intelligence. (not to mention that this place is a little cliquey y ' a l l but it's whatever though that's some high school shit but i miss it when other ffr people would just hop on down. there ain't that kinda energy around twg anymore and i miss it). anyways y'all have made me want to sub out of games, sometimes i'm out here wanting to leave twg, and i believe that i'm a pretty tough cookie. imagine how others feel. yeah, check out the syndicate. i've played with nanook there. even though i was a newbie they welcomed me with open arms. not to mention they actually go out of their way to get to know newbies. i'm sure they're not perfect and have their issues but like man, what a crew. i haven't played in a while tho maybe i'll go back so anyways one actionable recommendation i have is to have a twg vet available to chat with people who are uncomfortable while playing a game. i wanted to chat with bugkid but couldn't because we were both still in it (i'm sure others had their back though). sometimes players, especially newbies, need to feel supported. i'd be happy to step back for a couple of games and be that person if need be. ok i'm not done. two more things: 1) i want to see this community grow. i love y'all but without active recruiting ffr twg's gonna die out. some of us will get busy, others will get tired of the game. we /need/ a steady stream of newcomers-- it's not a question of whether we /want/ them. 2) xel and mml are (imo understandably) confused about how they should act in twg. i get that social rules can be a bit hard to define, but i think that rules aganst toxicity should be delineated. i'd be a good mod thanks |

Re: On the subject of Toxicity/Community Check-in (TWG)
mml, if it helps, i think what really gets to people is when what you say is disproportionately mean compared to what someone else says. like bugkid was p darn nice in the game but you were insulting them
i hope this thread doesn't make you wanna leave though. i actually really like playing with you and your posts don't get on my nerves personally 'cause i know you don't really mean them |

Re: On the subject of Toxicity/Community Check-in (TWG)
Yeah, and I thought he said something along the lines of someone's life not mattering or alluding to someone taking their lives, but Adam was definitely a prime example of the level of toxicity that would get you permanently banned from this community.

Re: On the subject of Toxicity/Community Check-in (TWG)
Gonna throw in my two cents here because fuck it, I can.
I've been playing with you guys for a little over a year now, and I've been having a blast, despite my inexperience. Emotions can run a little rampant in a game involving lying through your teeth and deceiving your friends for a period of two to three weeks. This is all well and good, but if I'm being honest here, I have not once seen a drip of toxicity from this community. |

I know it ain't directed at me, but after glancing at the game that just ended to see if there was a connection between this thread's creation to then. MML posts are aggressive and are meant to pressure players as he said in this thread. There was actually very few posts I would deem "too strong" coming from him this game. Yes, I went through every single post he made in that game to see if your post had merit. In fact the only quote I can share that might've been an insult was this. Quote:
... I'm just trying to figure this out, don't mind me!

Re: On the subject of Toxicity/Community Check-in (TWG)
anyways if you talked to bug postgame it becomes p obvious that they were affected by how people posted this game. even if you think, "oh that's not too bad," it was bad enough that bug doesn't wanna play another game

Re: On the subject of Toxicity/Community Check-in (TWG)
That is one of the "too strong" posts, yeah. It's not particularly insulting though unless the player laying out how they read a player's reactions was insulting.
This is what I mean when I said aggressive playstyles inevitably leads to hurt feelings when they probably didn't mean it. Quote:

Re: On the subject of Toxicity/Community Check-in (TWG)
Again, it's one of his "too strong" posts, but yeah, looks like I missed a line when going through his posts.
"Such an asset to town ain'cha?" is an insult, for sure. |
