Members grievance thread

[three3-times]

Right

In light of the in-fighting and issues we have been having lately, im creating this thread for ALL members to say what they wanna say or what they are unhappy about regarding PSU, us as staff, anything.

Please do not turn this into a staff bashing thread, but DONT be afraid to say what you want. There will be no infractions handed out for posting here unless you break a rule. (Similar to the punching bag thread)

If this doesn't work, then can any staffer please close it.

We welcome you ALL to come and speak,

Go.

who is afraid of who? And why?

Different people respond differently then others to insult, or being judged. That should very well explain what I mean.

My perma ban was an example of a pathetic person, who dis-liked me enough to perma ban me for telling three members in PMs about a dinky little forum that was set up by another member.

I want to start with one question.

Why was Dave banned again? Seriously? Was it justified this time?

I will soon get into my other huge rant on certain things. But lets start with something easy.

He was let back from a perma-ban, and those members are told they will be banned again at first sign of their previous behavior. Dave kept harassing and insulting a certain member, so we banned him.

The same thing happened to Snowhawk and Spider. As far as I know, Kwesnoth and Soldier are the only members who were able to come back without relapsing.

Dave is something this community needs, a little injection of life. In my opinion he was banned again based on personal issues towards him which are unjustified, and downright uncalled for.

Again, you're just being skeptical. That's our policy on perma-banned members who are given a second chance, and he didn't follow it. Cuguy told him straight up what the situation was.

It was the same for me. One rule break, and back out the door I go.

Yup, I make it clear with every one of them that coming back is a one shot deal.

If it were personal issues, I would not have lifted his ban to begin with!

Just as Ix said, that is how it works. Soldier and Kwes are the only two previously banned members so far who have rebounded and learned from their past mistakes.

[keefy]

Deleting posts and then not messaging the person that posted it why it was deleted so that person knows where they went wrong.

Who is Dave?

Just, im gonna weigh in, Dave WAS harrassing other members. he really was

Who cares about Dave?

The name change is mildly irksome to me. Select Member Council makes no sense. It'd be similar to a group being called the Jump Members Group, or the Run Members Group. 'Select Members Council' implies, logically, that it's a group that selects members rather than being a group of the selected. It should be Selected Members Council.

It's very slightly saddening that no one ever seems to remember me.

'Select' can be used as an adjective as well. You're just thinking of the verb.



Simply put, the name explains that the SMC are chosen for being the best members for the job.

The definition you posted agrees with me. It listed its proper form, selected, after it gave its adjective use. Formally 'Select' is used for overtly special or preferable items, typically for sale or usage. Select Member Council is improper.

Well, I have been distraught for years. I am still waiting for forum theme choices. Not a day doesn't go by that I wish I could switch over to a fuchsia, with a comic san serif font. And we need more hot chicks posting here.

[DeviousOne]

When i wake up in the morning my back hurts? WHAT is PSU gonna do about that LMAO....

I have no greivances but i am interested in seeing what other members have them and their point of view also how they can be resolved as a community!

[Cybertox]

I dont have many issues with the staff of this forum but i have loads of issues in the technical part of the forum.

So do I cyber.. and just about daily, I check into these things to see if I can speed any of it up. Believe me man, all of the stuff you brought up (most of it actually) I put in myself into the tracker database. It is just a matter of when it will be handled.

What I will figure out a way to do, is pull a report from our tracking software to show what HAS been done and what is on the books waiting, so members can see what is and isn't getting accomplished.

I always hear that a lot of things were improved and some bugs fixed but all of my issues still persist and persist and persist...

It would be cool if a report of fixed and improved things would be displayed to regular members.

That is something I am actively working on in my spare time. It was suggested by our new SMC, Soldier. Issue is, I have to find a way to get a usable report out of the software.

Man, believe me when I say that I do check on this stuff. Let me see what I can do about getting some public updates!

You should just post something like a games patch notes in the PSU announcements section in a form of a normal thread.

My only real issue here. It can go to the point where I don't want to come here for a while.

As for, Dave, I did notice constant harassment and insults towards members in the football thread.

Are people seriously that uptight? It is a FOOTBALL thread!
