#34848, "RE: Short-term vs. long-term retention (long)"

It's destructive because its inherently hostile and negative, coming from a top level Admin of the game. I don't want to be where I'm not wanted, I could care less about your game if you could care less about wanting other people to play. It reads like, "If you ever have a problem go **** yourself, we don't care." That's the message you're projecting, whether its the one you want to project or not because its an inherently negative post.
You guys don't have a laisez-faire attitude, as an aside.
What would I do? I'd start by telling Imms that can't keep it together to not post and not interact with people. Less is more. Better to be thought as a jerk than proven one.
In general, you foster positive environments with positive behavior. If you're generating more negative situations than you're generating positive situations then what do you expect to happen? Most people's sole interactions with Imms is being criticized. Imm goes over CB and says, "Why don't we have our cabal item?" Etc. It's inherently hostile and it fosters hostility back towards you.
Edited to add: In most of these comparable analogies to other online games, they have "faces" that talk on the forums. There is a reason for that, it keeps the signal to noise and drama minimized. Power tripping about banning people isn't going to do you any favors but if you disagree with me, hey, stop threatening and go for it just don't hold your breathe for great results. Most of the arguments you guys have is not about what you do, its about what you *say* and how you guys handle perception.
