The NEW Party In My Dorm Help Experience is Almost Here!

What is it?
We have launched a new Help Experience that will replace our current FAQ and Help Ticket systems!

Why did you make it?
📚 A library of searchable FAQ's means there is no more waiting for an answer!
✍️ We can update and edit FAQ's on the fly, so you can be sure you have the most up to date details!
🤖 Using Forms and Bots we can collect the right info to help you as quickly as possible!
📸 You can Share Screenshots in-app to make reporting issues easy!

Overall it creates a smooth and modern experience that gets you the help you need faster!

Where is it?
Go to Settings, then tap Help!
If you still see the FAQ button on your Settings menu, they you need to restart your app, or install the latest update to access the new help feature!

When can I use it?
The new Help Experience is launched October 19th at 12pm PST!

What about my old Help tickets?
After we moved your account over to the new system, you are not able to see old Help Tickets, but we still can if necessary! If you were in the middle of a Help Ticket when you get moved over, please write in again and we'll help you out. 😀

How does it work?

This kind of makes me so sad. I personally don’t want to talk to bots when asking for help and I think most people would agree with me on that. I definitely feel like this will remove the personalized feel of the current help tickets format but I do understand the reasoning behind it. 😞

Don't worry!
You can still chat with team members! Thats a huge part of this!
Bots/Forms are just upfront so it is faster and easier for us to help you out and make sure we have the right info :)
 
A lot of the issues that I have you guys give automated responses and close my ticket even though I know it’s an actual glitch and issue that has been previously resolved. These bots will only make it more frustrating for me, personally. Though I know a lot of the new players who have basic questions that FAQ/Bot response will be helpful for them.

I agree tbh
 
Only positive thing is you now consider screenshots for additional proof. Not surprised you added bots to do an even less amount of work.

Go to Settings, then tap Help.
We are slowly rolling this out to players and the first small group will see it today! We will gradually add more people over the next few weeks until we are ready for everyone to use it.

How do I know if I am a tester?
If you notice the FAQ button is missing from your Menu, then tap Help to enjoy the new experience!

If you have any feedback on the new experience, please let us know by opening a chat and tapping Feedback and then Suggestions in the Chat menu!

When can I use it?
Once we feel its been thoroughly tested we'll be rolling out access to everyone! We appreciate your patience while we get familiar with the new system 🤗

This will lead to even more of a downfall for the company but aight best of luck to anyone who needs actual help and won’t be able to get it as they get bullied or something
 
Does this mean the issue around help tickets themself will be fixed? I cant even do anything with tickets without uninstalling and reinstalling the game every 5mins. Which is why ive given up reporting issues i come across.

Its a issue ive had for years and i know im not the only 1 that has this issue.

I totally see what you’re talking about honestly.

Based on how the bots are designed to work, it shouldn’t take away from the possibility of getting a real support person to speak with. It’s just similar to calling in to a store, and having to “press 3 to talk to a teammate”. The bots just assist in troubleshooting first to ensure the problem isn’t a fix we already know.

Though I can easily understand the frustration, I think this will allow the players who actually need 1 on 1 support access to quicker responses since the support team won’t need to answer basic FAQ questions or fixes.
