To those that choose to vent their anger in public chats on Order

Post#1 » Tue Jan 19, 2021 5:47 pm

Hello everyone,

We all love or used to love Warhammer online, and we come back because we enjoy the game or atleast aspects of the game...

...But atm where Order is on constant defense, all you notice on public chats, are people telling other people that they are s.hit at the game, how Order players are a waste of space or even that the developers favour Destruction over Order... And I get it.. we all get frustrated, angry and want to slag someone off, because of what just transpired in a certain zone, or how we feel in the lakes day after day.

With that in mind, I want you to think about how this affects the game, or rather, the people playing the game at the moment. In reality, any mmo's strength is its population. Without population, there's no game. So your negative comments / insults in public chats, can have actual impact on the state of the game and, in the end, could be a determining factor in, whether or not, RoR will stand the test of time.

I argue that, because you're venting anger and frustration, it must mean that you carry a certain amount of dedication and passion for this game.

With that in mind, it can be seen as self-destructive behaviour to actively participate in people leaving the game, or atleast taking prolonged breaks.

I'm not under any grand illusion that because you read this post, you'll stop spewing anger and frustration in public chats, but I'm hoping you will keep it in mind next time you feel like spewing in a channel.

Regards,

An Order player

There is a report function in-game, it generates tickets for the GM team, and they are expected to reduce the noise from abusive players. If you find reasoning with them isn't working, have a GM deal with them. We want an environment that people enjoy playing in, not one they feel harassed by.

I'm sure this is true, but I can only comment on Order channels as I dont play destruction.
