So let's say

[John Denver]

If I had a particular argument or problem with the staff, and I wanted it to be a public discussion to get both the staff and member's feedback, how would I go about doing that? I noticed there's no staff feedback thread (there should be) and everytime I try to talk about it in the DCC...a mod ends it, abruptly, for no real reason either...

just wondrin...

 

[Agent9]

um...wouldn't you have to get the staff's permission?

 

[John Denver]

I would need the staff's permission to give them feeback?

That's like asking a question to see if you can ask a question -_-

 

[Agent9]

erm, i didn't understand most of it...could you perhaps...explain it more simpler?

 

[John Denver]

It seems as though talking about the staff and what they do in an ever so slightly negative tone is against the rules on PC. Kinda like china...

I was wondering if there could be a designated thread or something for the members to tell the mods what they think about events and happenings. Positive, negative...whatever

 

[Ryoutarou]

Those staff feedback threads always went offtopic which is why we stopped doing it. And you know that we aren't against people saying things about the staff. Criticism and outright blind flaming and bashing aren't the same thing, you know that well enough.

Those staff feedback threads? We've had one before...I think if we set some ground rules for a new and let some things slide (not rule breaks) of course...it'd be a good thread

But that's not what I'm asking for is it, you know that well enough.

I don't hate you guys, or dislike (most of you) guys. It'd just be nice if PC was for the members and not the staff...

I can't talk this with you over MSN or something?

 

[Agent9]

well if this is the topic...i would want a staff/member feedback thread...it would prove helpful

 

[John Denver]

I'd still like to get some more feedback from the staff about this

 

[Rukario]

personally i'm all for feedback as long as it stays clean and friendly and doesn't evoke a flame war and so on..

go ahead and voice your concerns..

 

[Agent9]

but do they post it in community questions and feedback or Community news and events?

 

[Rukario]

it goes in community feedback.. it is what that area is for.

 

[John Denver]

this wouldn't be the staff feedback thread though O_o it'd be title

"Staff feedback thread"

and it'd be stickied...woot woot?

 

[Rukario]

no, just open a new thread based on your feedback..

 

[Supreme Edgeboy Max]

Oooh..

It seems as though talking about the staff and what they do in an ever so slightly negative tone is against the rules on PC. Kinda like china...

So true.. IMO. =P

Meh, a staff feedback thread ain't such a a bad idea, how about the mods put up some more rules to see that the thread doesn't go offtopic if it does... than just closing/removing?

 

[Freenaturearts]

I think the fact that it is a place for people to learn the heart and consern of their leaders is a good enough reason to stickie a staff feedback thread, this will also help us get to know are mods insted of treating many of them like eveil probes from hell when they actualy are just in the wrong place at the wrong time sometimes, and at the same time this will help people like me get to know the full out life of the mods,admins and Staff so that people like us (me and a few friends) could possibly find some way as of to help them in there perdicament.

Though flaming happends, there has to be a way to cassualy go about the argument with a nice manner and a very low key, and insted of closeing the staff feedback and saying forget it all like a biginning forum would do=/ . I would say you just go about it on a personal basis with the flamer and the flamie. This way it will be more orginized and certan people will look like they actualy are paying close attention to are feedback =D. Though I know they are now, egknowlegment in a personal manner will help cool their heads and clear the steam.

And at the same time sometimes a place with flaming is good o_O I've been wanting to suggest one but I am not the person to suggest it when I alone would not be useing it XD I have no flame wars with anybody that I know, and when I do I go person to person and even go after them on there AIM,MSN,Yahoo and e-mail adresses. All flaming happenin' by me is on a person to person basis.

So in a way you could have a special area for those not so sleek in their choices. This way both are fairly welcomed , and yes flaming and fights are bad and should be low. But it's like keeping a day care center when a place has no sign of someone feeling a little mad without being banned or caped for a few months X_X. Me included in such worries..

All in all, I LOVE this idea =D I'm sure what you meen by your personal message I gave you PPNsteve, at least this way the mods and staff themselfs can tell us there problems and at most get the hair off their chest^^.

 

[Supreme Edgeboy Max]

=P Spoken like a.. true supporter of the idea. *thumbs up*

Well the thing is kinda like.. the staff literally snaps back at you if you say something. But thats all IMO, so hopefully things won't be like that in the Feedback thread.

 

[John Denver]

Let's let this thread die...we already got the staff feedback thread! w00tness!

 

[Freenaturearts]

Sometimes the staff does snap back, but with a place like this the stress they can releave.. ^^ A staff feedback thread will surly get rid of the negitive energy of the intire crew and possibly give us much more friendly staff like they are already =D but most of the times we wont have to get to know them from IM purpose to actualy learn slowly that they are some of the sweetest people in the team. I myself usta be kinda scared of dakota. But after I talked with em on Aim for the first time last year =D I cant wait to see him on AIM so that whatever he says can be enjoyed ^^ some people here are just so cool that they in their tenceness never show it, =D And sometimes I even wish to know all of them on a first month basis o_O but thats alot of staff and I may end up making friends forever with how many that come and go. however now with a place like this, they may not leave so often for the problems they leave for can be solved :excited:

YAY! :huggles: awesome Dakota ^^ :runs to it and watches it for hours o.o:

 

[Kylie-chan]

Nope, not if we're getting bashed and flamed within an inch of our lives by members who can't control themselves, which happened... +counts+ the last four times? <_<
