GM's, want forums under control?

Bowlinbob - Lost City

Get on your knees and beg eatwithspoons to come back to fix the craptastic mess you've all started.

/my solution

Or actually find another GM like him that actually gave a **** about the playerbase.

Forum was fun b4 permanent packs, amazing cash shoppers and spoons.

Oh well, i'm like half non player due to more important stuff, i just stay in west arch dueling people. But yeah it's going downhill, more down then Dwayne Johnson's acting career.

They need to hire at least 1 full time Community Manager and have at least 3-4 moderators that are game-specific and only deal with one forum.

Having a few admin and a few mods that manage a number of different game forums part-time just won't cut it anymore.

I'm still pretty sure Spoons was removed because he sympathized with the player base. The problem is, its typically company policy for GMs/CMs/etc to not show any weakness in regards to their support to the company, to not show anything that might shine in a bad light of the CMs opinion towards management. They can voice negative opinions behind closed doors, but they must always keep a company face on to the public. For all we know Frankie might care, but be prohibited from even showing it in the slightest degree. I dont think the company will ever hire another Spoons again.

sending virus's to players sharing their honest views about the game is a sure funny way of showing he cares imo.

Wow Bob, don't be an idiot.

That's not a virus. It's a browser hi-jack and while it may crash your browser, annoy the hell out of you and maybe embarrass yourself in front of friends, family or co-workers, it does nothing to your system, it infects no files, spreads nothing. It's an over-glorified prank, not malicious software.

Bowlinbob - Lost City

im just going by what the buzz is on forums. Im not gonna click a click to check it out if multiple people claim its a virus.

edit: that being said, It still falls under the catagory of him being unprofessional towards a player expressing his opinion/ and intent to cause that player grief.

Klizzahrd - Lost City

The fact that was even sent to a player highlights how much sense the current mods lack.
If somebody already has a bad rep for not caring about the players...why the heck would they send a link that crashed their browser?

common sense yo

Yes, but you said 'sending viruses' when none were sent, propagating further misinformation.

It was unprofessional, but funny. I wish I would have seen that, I would applaud that.

And hey, look at me, one of these haters actually sticking up for an Admin?

No, I'm just being honest, like I have been in all these threads so far.

Whatever, when the company owners see that they'll show him the door. Believe me.

I don't want spoons to come back, at least not right now. It would be unfair for him to have to fix this mess that someone else made, and I don't even want to think about what his reaction would be to see the game/forum in this state. He cared, and his sadface would make me sad

Boogiepanda - Raging Tide

Employ me for GM. I work for free yo.

More cash + more player = win.

if spoons had not left this never would have happened. we would have TW pay, no packs, people would not be banned for speaking out against PWE, we would have numerous, competent moderators. hell i bet even RT would behave if spoons had not left. oh and i never would have been sent a malicious link in a PM from a GM

I don't think even spoons could save us from TW pay changes and packs.

Is it? Your view of Spoons greatness is somewhat exaggerated, GreatStorm has it far more accurate than you do.

As for your personal situation, with the message from Frankie, I'm not accusing either way or defending anyone here, simply giving an open view.

If that is genuine, it is extremely disappointing to see, even if it was meant as a prank, showing there is still some humour there, this actual example would constitute gross misconduct.

Who would have expected Frankie to follow the old saying of 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'?

On the flip side, there has been so much of it lately, if it is another case of defamation, which let's face it, this would be easy to knock up in a few minutes and there are several people here that could and would, hold the story and the effect would be the same as if it were real. If this is the case, it is equally as sickening.

On both sides of the possibilities, you could say that people have proven themselves to be indecent and two faced.

We are both saying the same thing....Frankie cant and will never hold spoons spoon. Spoons actually took the time to talk to us. yes frankie made some posts but majority are copy pasta b:surrender

Whiteshade - Lost City

What i think is the main problem is that PWE do not understand that if PWI will fall so will they. They cant make new game once a while, move the efforts towards his (apperently i cant say the game's name) favor and hope all will follow them. There are meny games and not many player who are disapointed from the operator will continue to other game from the same one.

If they whould understand that they whould have put more effort in this game including its communiy and you guys whould have professional mod instead of some volenteers out of no-where (sorry shelly, i know you you made a mistake with my topic its oki we all make mistakes, but this is the truth). We can see in the last patches how much efforts are being put into this game and it all came crashing on the mods.

Me? i like pwi, ill stay to be the last one that closes the light

Did frankie really post that link? I tried doing a search but can't find the topic anymore.

If so, there's a fine line between a funny prank and showing uncensored pornographic images of 70 yr olds having sexual intercourse and trying to subscribe you to Usenet groups such as alt.flame.n1gg3rz and alt.flame.f4gg0ts.

This is supposed to be a family friendly forum, after all, not 4chan.

He was fired for giving out information to certain players before the rest of the community. Yeah lets bring him back so RedsRose can feel special again...

All these people thinking of certain individuals and their purity...

In the meantime, we have some forum going individuals who believe in that and, to prove themsleves for this supposed cause, they show how disgraceful they generally are, in particular towards a few other individuals in the process. So, when Frankie goes (I'm guessing it is likely (sadly) and if PWI survives), what kind of person do they think will arrive in place?

I can just imagine hearing a voice echoing through the PWI offices...

I'll get you Gadget...

That sounds like the best we could hope for, it could easily be so much worse.

I'd rather have RR feeling special any day over being linked to browser/mail client hijacks and being forced to watch your internet grandpa and internet grandma have sex in all their soggy uncensored glory while trying to browse PWI forums littered with fail threads over fail mods the fail CM hand picked.

I'm just sayin'. b:bye

just where is this accusatory post anyways? is it even real, or just something someone shopped for the lols?

really, either way, spoons sucked; quit acting like he was some godly CM. he took dvorak from us, who was far greater than spoons ever was. the forum was actually GOOD when dvorak was in charge, i dont get why you people seem to think this idiot spoons made things so golden. the dude even went as far as to insult, and curse at my woman, and all i got in return was a stupid copy paste apology.
