...The admins are highly prone to moving negative feedback, even if it actually fits the forum it's in? I saw a thread today with criticism that was perfectly polite in my opinion and appeared to belong perfectly in the SF, and it was removed and put in the TS without any clarification on the part of the owner. To be honest, I've suspected that this happens quite a lot for some time now, but I don't have much evidence to back me up, since I don't stalk the SF, and without evidence, all arguments are worthless. Plus, I've noticed people in the SF who are, to put it politely, rabid supporters of everything the admins do and their responses to other people who aren't sometimes veer on the inappropriate and they don't appear to get reprimanded. However, I don't know everything that goes on behind the scenes.


I do like Solia, I just wish that it had different administrators. :/

I don't have a problem with the admins.

I saw that they moved the thread, and didn't really like that, but it isn't a big deal to me.

I think they do a good enough job where it counts.

I haven't noticed due to not lurking SF or noticing threads in TS that are complaints. I guess I'm just not around at the right times. But I have heard of it a few times. The negative feedback being moved to some other place that is. If they are doing it a lot I'd be kinda cranky with them if it means they are ignoring what the people have to say(assuming the negative feedback gives a constructive way to fix whatever they are negative about).

I don't have strong opinions against the admins, but I do think they are a little immature at some times with how they handle a few things.

Wait, you made that thread, and you got warned for it?

Yep, they hit me for it Ben. I got it moved, obviously, and then I mentioned unisexing on another board and BAM! I'm trollin'. confused Said it was for the latter post about unisexing, but cited that thread also as 'adding to it'.

Then when I asked if I was getting privileges removed Dekkard gave me this round about crazy worded paragraph about how if I complain/talk about my warning on site they will remove privileges.

On the plus side I got my mate to post on the board and get a Mod to tell me why they think it was moved. They assumed it was because it became a rant but did not know because they were not the one who moved it. =/ Wish I knew who did so I could get the reason out of them.

Mhm.
I was banned for saying, errr "Ben, we get that.
What we need, is confirmation, written confirmation, in the rules, about what a fad thread is, and how namedropping fits in there."

'cept by that point I just figure they wanted a reason to get rid of me.

But there were a bunch of threads in the S&F that kept getting locked before the discussion was finished.

None of this surprises me at all. I got warned for being annoyed by the lack of unisexing a while ago. Sigh.

unisexing seems to be the one issue that is guaranteed to get you warned/glared at/moved without warning/banned for mentioning so far. stare

Oi, Iscariot really can't take constructive criticism very well. I've noticed that a lot in the SF recently because a lot of people are upset about the Easter threads. sweatdrop

Yeh I'd kinda noticed him gettin highly defensive...
Which I can understand, but you're right, sometimes he seems to really over react to what is being said.
PostPosted: Thu Apr 16, 2009 11:15 pm


Well... Maybe he's getting snappy because of the constant flow of bitching.

I mean, there's constructive criticism in there, there's stuff Iscariot should be listening to, and as an admin, he really really shouldn't be snappy like that.

But so much bitching...

Honestly, it sucks when people get overly bitchy and whiny, but if the staff can't handle it now how on earth are they ever going to handle it if the site gets bigger and more popular?

If they can't take criticism they really shouldn't be doing something that's so public.
