Forum:Reforming the Clan Chat

Forums: Yew Grove > Reforming the Clan Chat

There have recently been several CC threads, two of which are still active, yet I believe another is necessary. As you may know, the CC is no stranger to drama and conflict, and it has very rarely become serious enough to be formally brought up. However, in light of recent events, I believe now is such a time. The CC is ripe with trolling, immature discussions and just bad conduct in general, and instead of creating unnecessary wiki drama, we've been shrugging this off for a while; and yet, said recent events indicate that it has become inhospitable to such an extent that two clanmates, both of whom have been members of the community for over a year, have decided to quit, and several others are seriously considering doing so. From what I have gathered in an off-site discussion, screenshots of which I can post upon request, it is clear to me that the current admins are either unwilling or just incapable of handling conflict within the CC, and ensuring the standard of conduct that is demanded by the clan rules.

I don't know where to go from here. If you think I'm saying that the admins are entirely responsible, I'm not, because the issue lies deeper. I am at a loss as to what changes should be made to rectify this. But it is obviously apparent that something must be done. I have therefore decided to create this thread, where I encourage anyone, part of the CC or not, to suggest solutions for the reformation of this once civil medium. Whether it's amending RS:CC, raising second thoughts about the current group of admins or just, well, whatever, any ideas are welcome, and most will probably be better than what I've come up with so far (pls don't ban me tho).

Although many of you will know who some of the people concerned are, I deliberately chose to leave out names in an effort to preserve what objectivity we have left.

The consensus is always that some users feel there are some problems, some users feel that there are not. In the end, nothing changes. The last time I brought this up I was basically told that no one actually in the clan cared - admin or not. People seem to be fine with the way things are in the clan. Not everyone of course, but a vast majority. User:Urbancowgurl777/Signature 22:59, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

As I have told others already, I don't care if this thread drags on for ages and gets closed without consensus like the first one you listed did, because this way at least we'll have recognised that there is an issue and tried to fix it as opposed to sweeping it under the rug and leaving it for someone else to clear up. https://i.imgur.com/eCopM0F.png Brownfire  https://i.imgur.com/eCopM0F.png Talk Edit this because I am a noob.Oil4 I made this 23:02, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

Nice glasses. Didn't know lenses came in rose. MolMan 23:03, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

Perhaps I should have specified that constructive criticism is preferred. If you have any of that to offer, please do so. https://i.imgur.com/eCopM0F.png Brownfire  https://i.imgur.com/eCopM0F.png Talk Edit this because I am a noob.Oil4 I made this 23:10, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

This thread isn't going to solve anything. MolMan 23:12, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

And your pointless comments are? https://i.imgur.com/eCopM0F.png Brownfire  https://i.imgur.com/eCopM0F.png Talk Edit this because I am a noob.Oil4 I made this 23:18, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

Except that's what every other thread tried to do. User:Urbancowgurl777/Signature 23:04, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

And they failed. So what? https://i.imgur.com/eCopM0F.png Brownfire  https://i.imgur.com/eCopM0F.png Talk Edit this because I am a noob.Oil4 I made this 23:10, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

And so will yours. MolMan 23:12, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

There is no reason for not trying to fix it, just because others have failed in the past doesn't mean you need to intentionally make it fail. Bloo is being serious and needs to be treated seriously. Sly Fawkes (talk) 23:16, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

I'm not making it fail. It was doomed from the start. MolMan 23:19, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

We get it. You want nothing to do with this thread. Nobody's forcing you. https://i.imgur.com/eCopM0F.png Brownfire  https://i.imgur.com/eCopM0F.png Talk Edit this because I am a noob.Oil4 I made this 23:21, December 22, 2014 (UTC)
