For those of you spazzing @ GM's

I agree with most of what you have stated...it is hard though (imo) for those that have never worked a Customer Service job or been in the position to take and field complaints that are out of your control.

Just because ppl do not like something, it is no excuse for the name-calling, etc. If people posted more constructive things, then maybe a better response would be given...Food for thought.

I would like to think that everyone would be in agreement with your comments here. Unfortunately, as it can take time to return any beneficial feedback, things can come across as being ignored or, that the threads are made to give the impression that something is being done.

Communication quite likely is being undertaken but there are little to no clues given that this is the case.

I can also imagine that some detail gets lost on the way through the departments...

The Plan.
In the beginning, there was the Plan. Then came the Assumptions and the Assumptions were without form and the Plan was without substance. Darkness was upon the face of the players and they spoke among themselves, saying, "It is a crock of s*** and it stinketh."
The players went into their GM's and said, "It is a pail of dung and none may abide the odour thereof." The GM's went unto their Managers, saying, "It is a container of excrement and it is very strong, such that none may abide by it."
The Managers went unto their PWI Corporate Communications Dept., saying, "It is a vessel of fertilizer and none may abide it's strength." The Corporate Communications Dept. spoke amongst themselves, saying one to another, "It contains that which aids plant growth and it is very strong."
The PWI Corporate Communications Dept. went unto the CN Corporate Communications Dept., saying, "It promotes growth and it is very powerful." The Corporate Communications Dept. went unto the CEO, saying, "This new Plan will actively promote the growth and vigor of the company with powerful effects."
And the CEO looked upon the Plan and saw that it was good. And the Plan became Policy. This is how S*** Happens. b:surrender

Honestly, we wouldn't be spazzing at the GMs if they'd do a better job of 'hearing us out'. So far all they've done since this horror they visited upon us is ban people for posting offensive pics, delete threads talking about That Video, yell at us for not keeping the topic to one thread, take away our freaking image posting for pity's sake, and whine about over-the-top insults.

It is calling running a forum...regardless of anger and such there are still rules.

Welcome to the Corporate World...I live it everyday, 5-7 days a week through work. Some things you just never understand and some things take some time. Also, changes to "new" things takes time. It is climbing the ladder that is the pain and the time consumption, not coming down from it.

gms don't care lol. The impression I get from most gms on any game I played is a souless macine with no sense of humor. So let them take the bullets .

Brown-nosing the GMs will get you nowhere @ OP. Let them feel the heat, they have more power than you care to think, and what they can't change, they can relay back to their employers what needs to be changed.
