Forums Negativity

Discussion in 'Off Topic' started by Corey, Nov 2, 2013.

  1. Lately, there has been a problem with our forums being "Hostile" or "Unhelpful" to newer players. They come here to ask questions, and seek advice, and yet all we show them is negativity.

    We "Troll" them.
    We "Hate" on them.
    We mess around, not giving straight answers.

    And you guys question why PIMD is going downhill?

    There are a lot less new players on forums.
    More and more players are roleplaying, and doing things against the ToU, partly because we don't teach them better.

    It has become harder and harder to become an active part of the "good" side of PIMD, and we, as a whole, need to stop this.
    Stop the negativity.

    Thanks for reading.
     
  2. I don't recall doing any of that
     
  3. We're nice to people

    Unless they break rules
     
  4. I see everybody guilty of this at one point or another, including me.

    This has been going on for a long time, and I'm not calling out a single person, I'm calling out the general community.
     
  5. I still don't recall it
     
  6. @leo lol

    "Unless they break the rules"

    I don't care for the rules, wether someone breaks them or not ILL TREAT THEM THA SAME YO
     
  7. Well, all the big-new, clueless, wimpy, and brainless people in pimd are what makes me negative.

    They only teach to spread how they behave... thus my negativity.
     
  8. Negativity is entertaining nd humorous when done in certain ways. Ppl need to lighten up nd stop taking everything to heart. I love reading troll like comments 
     
  9. I dissagree. I see more and more people on forums and most of the hate goes to those who deserve it.
     
  10. "Those who deserve it"

    Now now, who deserves to be hated?

    ^.^
     
  11. Too many people who don't have the balls to speak their minds in real life wanna come to forums and be internet gangsters
     


  12. Yo yo yo welcome to the Wild West Brah
    Think your top guns? I can defeat you anyway bro, Bring it on
     
  13. I'm only hostile to Charlie he's forever a noob but he takes it well
     
  14. And i agree with what billings just wrote
     
  15. I think that the glue on this Skye's is what's picky this neck apart.
     
  16. Forums is the 'good' side of Pimd?

    Every new player that makes a thread asking a decent question, gets their question answered.

    The noobs that get trolled are the ones making threads all the time asking to be hired or someshit.

    You think that if they all came to forums they wouldn't be pervs and stop RPing? Lol, good luck with that
     
  17. @Bow What, so rping is bad?? Rping automatically makes you inferior? It automatically makes you a perv? I'd rethink your discriminations if I were you.
     
  18.  I for think that as a whole, role players are actually the nicest bunch of people on pimd. They welcome noobs. And of they actually know how to play the game, they teach the noobs as well.  I don't like rp, but yeah I like some role players. And I'd definitely recommend that we change out attitude for those of them that deserve it.
     
  19. Eh now, Just for the record... Billingsworth and Spitfire have got to maybe the only two people in forums who act the same to EVERYONE who makes a thread. Sure they might not be able to answer a question but Spitfire's funny remarks are generally based on his honest opinion and they aren't an attempt to troll. and Billingsworth never insults anyone. ?
     
  20. And lastly, I think there are many parts of the "good" side of pimd I don't like.

    Some of the players on the "good" side are complete asses. They lie. They shun people. The "good" side has kinda given up as well (Exhibit A: Wise Dan the Emo Master) ? Like no. Don't act like you've got some great commodity to offer new players, because that's a lie.
