Ask The Staff: Non site-related questions!

Oh so introduction threads are encouraged
but leaving threads ARENT?
This is the reason why i'm leaving.
 
I want to know why TBT bells/chatting in cycle is an issue. If we cannot talk there can we at least open a thread in the basement/brewsters section for 'cyclers talk?' I'm unsure if you guys understand how bad you are effecting your members. tbh if this doesn't get solved I'll end up leaving/find a different forum/make my own. Which is sad because TBT is such a great place!

Leaving threads have no purpose. To say you're leaving? You're asking for people to come on and be sad about you not being on anymore. It's better to just PM your close friends that you're leaving, then leave.
 
Soooo
introduction threads are basically attracting attention for people be all happy and welcome them
but goodbye threads are known as not needed, and they're the same thing but the opposite?
Gnoxiam, I'll only reply to things such as PM's and maybe pick up and sell villagers at times
 
I swear leaving threads are much better, especially if you were doing a cycling thread, or had a really popular shop.. etc.
To tell people you're leaving so they won't wonder where on earth the person they wanted to trade with went?
 
Zora that discussion ended yesterday. It's no longer an issue; ya'll spoke, the staff (at least one of them did) spoke. Nothing's changing. Why bring this up again?

This is pretty much it.

Introduction threads help introduce new people and help them find friends and get the hang of posting on the forum and etc. It's essentially doing a tutorial.

Leaving doesn't need that. If you want to leave, you just go. End of game? You hit quit. You don't sit there for 20 minutes telling the game how you are leaving for whatever reasons. It also can spur drama (depending on the reasons) among other things and since the main reason given for them is "I wanted to let my friends know" or "I want the people I was trading with to know"--there's no reason you couldn't just PM them. And in the case of the latter, a note in the first post or a message when you lock the thread.

because people have got warnings now, and now people are scared to post in the villager thread. This issue is half resolved. The cyclers and the people who come in and wait for our dreamies to be in boxes are now scrambling for a solution, to a problem that really isnt a problem in the first place. I just want a solid answer, can we, or can we not chat like we used to?
I honestly don't care/post for bells, if you care about them oath you can have mine after every day if it means that much to you.

I haven't said a lot about this mostly because..well I don't care about bells, I care about the friends I've made in this forum and the game itself. I understand the whole 'lol/wow' spam, but the examples you posted were ludacris. Can some mod weigh in on this, our own thread? [which got closed btw], go back to the way it was/no bells in cycle threads.

Honestly I've never seen such riff raff over something so petty, I'm not sure if you meant to cause this, and if so my rant is not all at you then. It's just seeing these dedicated cyclers rush around and stress about what to do because they're scared of being warned..is insane.
 
As I said in another thread--my post has NOTHING to do with whether you guys get TBT Bells or not. It was simply as those posts were off-topic for a Village Trade forum and the consequences those had. Even if TBT Bells were disabled in that forum since it was made, my post would have STILL been posted.

ok, I see now, my apologizes on that part. This is just really confusing and quite depressing. Nonetheless thanks for answering my concerns. Have a great day/night.

How will we know when some agreement is made with the cyclers? Will each cycler be notified, will there be an announcement, or will you just update the rules?

To be honest, it's right under post quality in the official rules:
Post Quality
Be sure your forum posts actually contribute to the topic being discussed.
Posts that contain solely "Lol", "This", GIF/image replies, or other short remarks are usually better suited for chatrooms than forum discussions.

So it's not a new thing--we just noticed late :( It's up to you guys what you want to do--all we ask is that it follows the rules.

So that's where it was coming from. I just thought it was a rule someone was trying to make up. I see now. Thank you for clarifying.
