This is not the first time our forum moderator has been chat banned in game? This time you were not even at the computer?
Stormshade, you're a coward. Respond to this issue. It's been going on for too damn long and we're sick of your and everyone else who works at Cryptic's apathetic BS.
People have been banned from participating in your game by other players when they haven't even been playing. When they have been organizing community events. When they need help with the game. Because someone else doesn't like their handle/supergroup/costume/etc. Or because said jerkwads just want their message out there and don't give 2 sh--s about the rest of us.
This is unacceptable Cryptic. Stormshade, get answers, and get back to us!
Stormshade's position on this is unfortunately clear, all's he can do is pass the message on that the feature is being abused and try and get someone to look into it being less exploitable or removed.
Want to get a try and comment from someone who actually can do something about it, wait for the next Ask Cryptic to happen and ask then.
Last post to defend myself, as this was taken in an unexpected direction.
My choice of adjectives for Stormshade was not diplomatic, but short of breaking forum rules, I don't know how to get his attention. Private messages, reports, they're all meaningless as he hasn't gotten back to me in months, others in years. What's more acceptable to you? If he's not willing to do his job of working with community, what else should I call him? Cuddle-bunny? He's shown that he couldn't care less about you or me in regards to community--and since his job is based on interaction, that to me, makes him a coward.
Smackwell: Even one person receiving an un-deserving chat ban is too many, but as someone who helps the game, even in a minute way receives one... man--I'd be P.O. If that was the thanks I got for my work. Kudos for your patience.
I called out Stormshade because he made promises he couldn't keep. If you want more info--go read the link in my sig. I tried being diplomatic, nice, helpful. I reported everyone who broke the rules in game. I got NOTHING in return, no acknowledgment that my issue has been even looked at. The submit ticket button might have just been the flippin' delete button. I stay off MC zone chat unless to ask a question and that's only when no one else knows the answer. I ignore people who are annoying and that's all. Nothing else I do matters because of the lack respect we're receiving from everyone on the cryptic team.
For over a year now, this has been going on. I would hope that the majority of us wouldn't have minded NOT being given an AP, or a costume set or 2, and having that time spent working with players to come up with a better system-which I've personally offered to do on multiple occasions.
To end more humbly, I apologize to non-staff taking offense to my previous message. My intent was not to anger, only to show emotion. I didn't consider anyone else would find this as offensive as they did because I assumed the majority of you agreed with me--if not verbally than internally. I broke a self set rule of never assuming things about others so for that, I'm sorry.
However, as the summer here on the west coast winds down, so does my patience for the game...

Okay, Flare, once more with feeling - Cryptic is LEGALLY PROHIBITED from discussing any disciplinary measures they may or may not have taken against another player. We've got some pretty good privacy laws here in the States, especially in California, despite (or perhaps because of?) the common fear of Big Brother.
Stormshade is not a "coward" for not discussing this - Stormshade is employed for not discussing this. Turn it about - say you had violated the rules (knowingly or not); would you want just anybody to find out about it? Do you want a public record of your own tally of violation points? I know I certainly wouldn't want mine laid out bare like that...
Your anger and distress are understandable - some of the things you have reported (such as repeated trollish disruption of Costume Contests) are unconscionable, particularly in light of the fact that we're supposed to be playing superheroes (despite some people's apparent preference for playing superthugs). However, the same rules under which these violators may be punished, at the same time protect their privacy so you'll never know what said punishment was. That's not Stormy's fault, that's just the way things are. Righteous indignation feels good, but it isn't always appropriate, you know?

Would you please post his official job description, along with all correspondence from his superiors demonstrating that your interpretation of his job is correct. Would you care to show where he has demonstrated what he does and does not care about ? Not responding to something that, for all we know, he isnt allowed to respond to is not a sign of cowardice. CO is pretty obviously not a major, or perhaps even significant portion, of his job description. Are you a coward for not coming in to my workplace and doing my job ?

Keep in mind that we do not get to decide what Stormshade's, or any other PWE employee, job description is.
Calling someone out for doing what they are told at their place of work, and there is absolutely no indication that this isnt exactly what's happening, is just plain off.
If PWE were ordering him to commit crimes, then yes it would be his responsibility to refuse. But spending his time as he is directed rather than as we wish, is not something for which we should call him out.
I want to let you know a couple of things, and talk about what I can do to help.
To start, I want to let you know that I've just hit the send button on an e-mail to Perfect World's CS Director, and am going to talk to him about this system some more, and see if we can enact any changes to finally put this issue behind us.
Second, I've been considering a new weekly web feature, to showcase the events that you guys are putting on.
So, here's my questions, if I move forward with this, would those SGs, and other individuals hosting Costume Contests and other in-game events, be willing to not only send me the time and date information of their contests, but also their contest winners?
Please note, there will have to be deadlines, and enough of these to warrant a full article, at regular intervals. I'd like to do this weekly, but, if there are not enough, we may need to do monthly round-ups instead.
In exchange, I'll make sure that your event is promoted on the CO website or forums at the very least, and may even be able to find a few other ways to help promote these events as well.
How does this sound to you guys? Will this help to alleviate some of the issues caused by the chat ban abuse? Can you think of other ways that I could help with these events?
Thanks,
Stormshade
What promises ?
I mean, I don't like the guy myself, but making up reasons to call him names is way off.

I mean, I don't like the guy myself, but making up reasons to call him names is way off.
Indeed, Stormshade promised to communicate our complaints and to look into doing a weekly community feature, the fact we haven't heard anymore about those isn't evidence that he didn't communicate our complaints or that he didn't consider doing the community feature (in fact the fact he posted it could be said to show he was considering it.)
In fact he has an excellent reason for not getting back to us on the community feature for the website, considering that from what I can see Stormshade is currently the lead CM across both Champions Online and the heavily promoted Neverwinter Online.
StormShade's actions speak volumes to his current well earned reputation with a majority of forum posters :rolleyes:
It's not you who has to convince us, it's him that has that responsibitlity
And just speaking for myself, IMhO he hasn't done a thing to earn his title as "community manager" for "Champions Online".
Side note, as for him having duties as a CM for NWO (and apparently doing them well).
That just proves my point that his rep. and commitment to CO are exactly what they seem...
It's sad how much is taken out of context--I'm just going to ignore that stuff.
Just because he didn't use the word "promise" doesn't give him the right to go back on things he has said he'd do. He said he would communicate our complaints, correct? How has he done so far? Do you even know?
Jon, I know they're "legally prohibited" to discuss what happens, but just to give myself some spotlight, (as up to this point I have not just been advocating on my own behalf) why do I not get ticket responses when other people do? I've filed practically every type from game glitches, costumes, to harassment. Not a single one has been replied to--even a bot responding that the message was filed would be better than the silent treatment they're giving me now. I feel like they personally have me on the ignore list. For a community based game, ignoring any player is just plain wrong.
Now to those of you who say something might've happened, you're only half right. I don't know that anything has happened (communication, addressing issues, etc.), I DO know that nothing has changed (in over a year this has been an issue). That right there is why I'm ticked off. It's a matter of integrity, of course Stormshade does not hold all the blame but until I see people not getting chat banned when they're not online, or when they're in a SG another SG doesn't like them solely for that reason, or whatever--I will hold everyone associated in dealing with those issues at Cryptic accountable.

You said he had broken his promise in this regard. You are the one who used the word promise. Show us what he has, "gone back on," in this regard. The company not acting on any particular information is not SS breaking a promise.

Sure, be ticked off that a problem hasn't been addressed. I have been so about this matter as well.
But, and this is a big but, what do you expect SS to do beyond passing the information on to his superiors ?
Or is it just a matter of, you are angry so its OK to call others names from the anonymity of the internet and the safety of the sanctity of being the customer ?
Show me a single bit of evidence to support your claims that he has gone back on things he has said he would do, promises he has broken, or acts of cowardice, and I would be more than happy to support you in this matter. If it is so, you should be able to demonstrate it. The communication occurred in a public forum. Its not as if this was being handled behind closed doors or through secret messages or anything.
So, where is it.
I am sorry man, but hiding behind the anonymity of the internet, and the sanctity of the customer when dealing with a company representative, in order to safely call others names such as coward is a pot meet kettle situation. This is particularly true when you have demonstrated an unwillingness (or perhaps inability) to back your story up with anything even resembling a fact.
I don't like Stormshade. I don't like the job he does here. That does not mean that:
1) He makes the decisions about how/where his work time will be spent.
2) It is OK to invent stories, make unfounded claims, etc about him.
By going off into fiction land rather than focusing on real problems it weakens the position that we want active communication and results. If we are spending time making stuff up it makes it look as if the very real concerns arent really all that important to us.
Or is it just a matter of, you are angry so its OK to call others names from the anonymity of the internet and the safety of the sanctity of being the customer ?
That's exactly it. You got me red handed. Everyone can go home now, problem solved. :rolleyes:
If you want proof, read all the related posts from my position. If you can't or won't do that, nothing I say will make you understand my point of view.

The only thing that's been said about Stormshade in your posts and your communications on the free forums to me that I've seen any evidence of is about Stormshade's post on the free forums.
Beyond that all's you have is speculation.
I will reiterate, just because he doesn't tell us what's happened after he's passed on the information, doesn't mean he isn't passing it on.
StormShade's actions speak volumes to his current well earned reputation with a majority of forum posters :rolleyes:

You have to admit it takes some Bizarrio world mad skills to keep his well earned reputation across 3 mmo forums each one of them has a wut does Stormshade do thread.

I Got Silenced again today for trolling back a Troll from Star Trek online at-least Champions online is role play Friendly and i dont have any issues with the Moderators or other Players in Champions Online . but thing is when you get Silence in one MMO Game that Belongs to Cyptic you get chat banned to all games which stinks
No clue. The ban happened around 7pm, and though I do frequent a chat channel through Pidgin, I hadn't said anything in there since around 5pm. So I got ignored or reported for spam while I was nowhere near the game.
But yeah, Wolverine sucks!
Another victim to the abusing tool that is chat-ban,aside from that,wolverine does not suck,and I am outraged by that comment
Wolvie started off as a short guy with claws, a bad attitude, and the ability to heal from injury more rapidly than normal. He struggled constantly to control his bestial side - in fact, that was the only reason he stayed with Xavier after the original X-Men were rescued from Krakoa. ("Ten years o' psycho training. O' hypnotism. O' drug therapy. Ten years o' prayin' - an' I cut him to pieces without a thought. Nothing changes, Prof. I thought I'd learned to control myself - guess I was wrong...")
Now he's some kind of Zen master, and as long as he can string together three freaking molecules he can heal from anything.
Wolverine used to be cool. Now he sucks.

It makes me wonder, if he's ever really splattered, will a bunch of Wolverines regen from the scattered bits?
Oh crap! Does anyone at Marvel read this? If so, I sense a new annual Marvel "event"...

Hey, it's just an opinion.
But, I threw that in as a joke, because that's what got me chat banned the first time. People in Zone were talking about Wolverine, I said "Wolverine sucks." and whammo, chat ban. It was pretty funny.
And no, I wouldn't consider myself a "victim." I can be an obnoxious pain in the **** sometimes, so it's no mystery at all. What caught my attention this time was that I just wasn't even in the game or near the computer at the time that I got banned.

1) He makes the decisions about how/where his work time will be spent.
2) It is OK to invent stories, make unfounded claims, etc about him.
By going off into fiction land rather than focusing on real problems it weakens the position that we want active communication and results. If we are spending time making stuff up it makes it look as if the very real concerns arent really all that important to us.

That's exactly it. You got me red handed. Everyone can go home now, problem solved. :rolleyes:
If you want proof, read all the related posts from my position. If you can't or won't do that, nothing I say will make you understand my point of view.

The only thing that's been said about Stormshade in your posts and your communications on the free forums to me that I've seen any evidence of is about Stormshade's post on the free forums.
Beyond that all's you have is speculation.
I will reiterate, just because he doesn't tell us what's happened after he's passed on the information, doesn't mean he isn't passing it on.
There's an awful lot of verbage devoted to claiming the theory without anything substantial, period, to back it up.

You have to admit it takes some Bizarrio world mad skills to keep his well earned reputation across 3 mmo forums each one of them has a wut does Stormshade do thread.
BUT BE YEA WARNED!
If we do ever find out what Stormshade actually does the universe might implode with the shockwaves caused by such revelations killing us all.

Now he's some kind of Zen master, and as long as he can string together three freaking molecules he can heal from anything.
Wolverine used to be cool. Now he sucks.

It makes me wonder, if he's ever really splattered, will a bunch of Wolverines regen from the scattered bits?
Oh crap! Does anyone at Marvel read this? If so, I sense a new annual Marvel "event"...
I'm sorry guys....

Laws yes!
Wolverine is a jerk. It's true, even characters in the Marvel universe say so.

Hey, it's just an opinion.
But, I threw that in as a joke, because that's what got me chat banned the first time. People in Zone were talking about Wolverine, I said "Wolverine sucks." and whammo, chat ban. It was pretty funny.
And no, I wouldn't consider myself a "victim." I can be an obnoxious pain in the **** sometimes, so it's no mystery at all. What caught my attention this time was that I just wasn't even in the game or near the computer at the time that I got banned.
Im sorry for the accusation,and also,this question may be a little..newbie of me to ask,but how is it even possible for you to get banned offline?

Someone just went /ignore accountname and that's all it took to trip the counter. Or /reportspam accountname. One of the two.
I wouldn't be surprised if the system didn't care at all if said person was even online or not.
