Enough is enough

Postby Matapiojo » Mon Apr 09, 2012 9:09 am

This recent wave of pilers thinking it ok to attack other pilers is beginning to test my patience. We are a debating community. As such, it is expected that you participate with the knowledge and presence of mind that not everyone will agree with your views and opinions. We do not want to nurture an environment where members think it acceptable to pile on insults, barbs, and general online bullying behavior just because others are doing it and authorities are seemingly turning a blind eye.

It has come to a point where the hostile environment is acting as a deterrent of what I, and many others, consider to be valuable members of our community. For every "I'm out" post, there are two or more pilers who have gone quietly into the night. I've had about enough of it.

Things are about to get considerably more strict around here in order to raise the bar of conduct we believe ought to be the standard. If this will be a problem for you, I suggest you start looking for an alternative for where to post your angst.

Yes, I agree that the negativity has gotten a bit too high recently. What kind of strict action do you plan on taking, exactly?

Most are in hindsight.

I agree with him wholeheartedly. The situation is really getting out of control. If it weren't for me wanting to continue my music review thread and the RP section I would take a few month break from FP and FPT.

I've slowed my posting a bit because there is no point with the recent subjects. Once the site is not distracted by this stuff, I'll likely pick back up.

I figure we could start up a big old party thread to increase positivity and ease the tensions which have been caused by actions of late, who knows it might allow people to relax and stop acting like a cat with a stick up its ass.
The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown
