#71736, "RE: If every unhappy person immediately left"
Edited on Mon 22-Oct-18 11:20 AM

          

I think you and another person have taken what I said to an extreme that I didn't intend. If I was unclear, I apologize. Even if you're just trolling me, I'll explain below to make sure that everyone else understands what I meant.

Everyone's unhappy about *something* in the game. Yeah, I get the frustration over edge point changes, for instance. I was still a player when they were made and I tended to PK a lot. I'd love to see some changes to Hunter Rangers, too.

But I'm talking about something a bit deeper than that. If ANYTHING, in sum, makes you more unhappy than it makes you happy, that is when I would encourage you to evaluate why you're doing it.

I never tried to set forth a "love CF unconditionally or go away" ultimatum. I never said "don't ever complain." There's no threat to ban anyone. It's a lot more nuanced than that. I only ask that you consider if being involved here is not only un-fun for you, but making you actively unhappy. If that's the case, it's better to leave and maybe get happier - and even regain some perspective and appreciation for this place while you're away - than stay and become toxic. I've done that, and it worked for me.

I promise I'm not trying to be mean or nasty here, but you just raised Constitutional arguments that apply only to governments in a bulletin-board post to the volunteer dungeonmasters of a small gaming community. You're saying that I somehow have to earn your trust when I've done nothing to earn your distrust. I don't even know where to begin, I'd rather just keep doing what I'm able to do to make this place a little more special for people while they're here. I don't think you're just angry - I think you are profoundly unhappy and I'm genuinely sorry for that. I just don't think we're equipped to fix it.
