My PM to Cordovan on this matter. Would not be suprised if I get the hammer.
So the problem I see here is that people "have" to make sock accounts to avoid moderation from well composed valid concerns. This resonated well with even founders to the game. Should we really be in fear to post our concerns? This leads me to my next point...
Ok so I am well aware of a few players this way, but a majority of that community on the other side is actually just sick of being bullied here for speaking their mind if it goes against what some of the well established posters think. The moderation for these valid concerns is what brings so many disheartened people to that site which so disgusts you.
See we are back to this again. They related well to this "sock" and liked to make it known that they feel the same. Should we be in fear of idolizing a quality poster?
The next problem is that these quality concerns are labeled as trolling to dismiss any validity they might have. This needs to change. And by the way they are getting a bit sick of how you negatively manipulate the community here as well. This Moderator vs Player relationship really needs help on both sides as each has its faults.
Same basic premise that you are below moderators (an average person) if you see things differently then them.
Along with the closure statement so frequent is another point also demonstrated in the community here. When a well established poster does not like the ideas being said in a thread they can just flame it and make the thread disappear so all opposition to their viewpoints is eliminated. Is this really what we should be subject to on the official forum site?
Yeah, that ain't going to resonate with Jezza sorry.
His world is much easier if the DDO forums and his fwiends are all rainbows and unicorns, and the Vault is all that is evil and wrong with the game. No PM to Cordo is going to change his perceptions.
Being told to "become a professional moderator or you're out on your arse" might get his attention, but that ain't coming from any of us.
Sadly, neither the DDO team or the orgn are mature enough for constructive criticism. It is far easier for them to build a wall of unsupported arrogance around themselves and just to believe that anyone who disagrees with their perfect world is either a shit slinger or just jealous of their fabulousness.
They do not want any criticism, and unfortunately nor are they obligated to heed any, so therefore no criticism will be abided or considered.
The side effect is that even the good constructive advice is ignored because it disagrees with their plans and agendas.
There is no point trying to change anything about DDO whilst the current mgmt and team are there. Just like a sticky turd, the whole orgn just needs a really good flush.
