Following today's events It's clear the PVP community feels the current OPVP admins serve their interest.
The summarize a good size of the community feel that:
[Private conversation removed]
The above is a very small snippet.
An entire second channel has also been formed because of the current situation.
When faced with criticism Chromaty decided to mute people rather than "face the music"
If any of the Moderators/Admin/Owners see this then there is only 1 request.
For the sake of the community that is left, Please re-consider and organize the mod structure so that only ACTIVE PVP'ers are in charge. We want our community channel back.
The summarize a good size of the community feel that:
- If you are a moderator you should at least play PVP. Currently a lot of us never see these people or even have interactions with them.
- The "muting" is damaging the already small active PVP community
- A lot of players have lost faith in the mods recent actions

Someone more useful could be in charge. Saying "this is your last warning" all day serves no purpose IMO.
Put an active member of a community as moderator of the same community and you will ensure, someday, problems. Simply because he will never, never and ever be super-partes per se. One of the best decision was this one, to put in charge someone outside the crowd.
Let me explain this better and why, I guess, they chose this route: if you use to be in a community, you tend to prefer some persons to others, some behaviors to others, that's because we're human beings and we all like to be part of something or tend to think as someone else, when this thing or person is similar to us, for aggregation's sake. Talking hypothetically, looking for the right one is very hard and you cannot be sure he will be the right one who will always do the right thing and keep a mature attitude (a moderator has to be mature, otherwise the game doesn't work). Instead, using, as final solution, the adoption of a guy that doesn't know you and the rest of the group, will better ensure the application of the rules without hesitations and preferences.
I admit, this may be a bit impersonal, a bit out of context, but it's a good way to handle this kind of commuity. Because, hey, let's be honest for a second, people inside OPvP are "special snowflakes"
A more important thing would be asking yourself, muted player/s, why you have been muted. Maybe, as always happens in OPvP, you did or said something... "borderline"? Just saying...
Imho, if someone really doesn't like the new course, he did good creating a new channel, I guess, because nobody forces players to stay in a channel: that's why Cryptic gave us the possibility to open as many channels we want.

ps: personally speaking, I don't mind this kind of route. I don't know him, but keep it up the good work, at least we have a sort of "clean-up"
We will not tollerate chats like...

And there ist nothing more to say.
Nando is correct. Indifference is very much what makes Chromaty the moderator of choice. Additionally we would like to add another moderator to the channel who preferably PvP's. Someone who will moderate when necessary. When the rules of the channel are violated, personal attacks are repeatedly made even after having been asked to stop flaming, fighting or trolling; or when the comments being made become a noticeable issue negatively affecting the channel in an unreasonable way. Moderation is not meant to play sides or cater to favorites and because of this some hate Chromaty and some love Chromaty. But Chromaty is and will continue to be moderator because it is in this way he has and continues to moderate the channel for the benefit of everyone subscribed. Regardless of whether they are a Full Time, Part Time, or Weekend Pvp player.
FreePvP is also a great idea and the players who created the channel are some of the best you will find in the game. I encourage players to join FreePvP for the same reasons they would join OPvP. To get advice, make teams, setup matches and generally chat pvp. So again, OPvP is looking for a third moderator. Specifically any PvP players who are interested can chat or mail Alkami@u.s.s.bloodmage(Mod), Chromaty@chromaty(Mod), or administrator Trinity@thecylus.

Let no other Captain discourage you from what you believe you can achieve in PvP. Debuffs and Disables be damned! Charge up your Backstep and Forge your build out of Lock Boxes, Consoles, and Flash Sales feeding off of only your pure will to chain, spam, and hax your way forward. You will not be forgotten to history.
Richard is a guy who is totally unsuitable for the role of a channel operator in the way he acts.
Keep fighting amongst yourselves. It will be your DOOM, federation! Do you think your pathetic Earth morality will have any place in the Klingon labor camps you are all destined to rot within? Not likely. Instead, you will beg for a quick death in PROPER Klingon.
Be prepared. I am coming for your soulz.

Very cool Lyle. I like the idea. I think you would make a very good addition.
Richard has been removed as moderator.

Mod should have respect of players on channel and basic knowledge about channel topic, imagine a guy on dps channel with mod who dont play pve or have for example 10k dps on main toon.
Anyway, let them select another one at this point, Lyle is a good person for example
Some could mean, here writes a reasonable player who was expelled from the opvp wrongly.
Irenvelle, you did leave the channel, after a mute (24h) for offending other players. And I don´t care if it was "just a joke", just because you know the affected players. Other do not know that and wondering what´s going on in opvp.
And you used words, that I can not post here, because the mods here would delete them (like my screenshot) and do maybe ban me for the same reason you did get the mute in the opvp-channel, months ago. (Without any warning!)
I did warn you, you did keep going on and the result was a 24h mute. Wanna see the screens? I still got them all! ;-)
And I always refuse to send these screens to the support, except in particularly extreme cases!
To leave the channel was your own decision!
And if you are not willing to accept a simple and self-evident rule, you have done the pvp community a favor!
This also applies to anyone who offends other players in a way that is unacceptable from a human perspective.
And to know that, you need neither pvp knowledge or 200k dps.
JaJa this shizzil is the real pvp
I agree.
Also, it's over now as moderators are gone (partially thanks to me and to the wonders of friendly discussion) and I, among many who started the fire, are now unmuted.
