Do you think people should be a bit nicer in Brewsters?

[seliph]

I mean you could leave. Not that hard.

That's why I did leave for quite a while before the fair but go off I guess.

Came back for the fair, stayed to make back some bells I lost from buying feathers, and now I'm here for Halloween. You'll see me again at Christmas probably : )

Out of curiosity. Is it easy to get banned on the bell tree forums?

Yes

I agree that people should be a bit nicer but it's hard when so many people suck and think that their better than everyone. If you confront them they act like they are the victim when they are the perpetrator, they don't get banned so their behaviour doesn't get any better.

They usually are the staff's little buddies so they never get banned (don't care if the staff denies it, we have biases but these people in particular never seem to be banned despite continuously acting like bullies)

and what really irks me is that these bullies are usually young adults picking on children who aren't fully educated on many things so don't tell me/ask me to be nice to them because I won't.

Firstly, I would like to say I've witnessed and been on websites where the admins basically team up with anyone who starts conflict and prey on poor innocent childern. I have never found that to be the case with this website and I don't think it is good to turn a forum against it's "goverment" so to speak.

I agree that these adults shouldn't pick on childern, it is wrong, and they need to stop acting more immature then the actual kids.

Still though, there is no excuse for your own behaviour. And you don't have to be nice per say in the way you can't call them out on BS, but you need to be peaceful and not hateful. Since then, without paying close attention, there isn't even a difference in how you both look.

Think of two people debating something hatefully, if you aren't paying attention, even if one person is right (in your opinion), it still just sounds like arguing.

im pretty sure the mods wouldnt ban people without considerable proof that this is repeated behaviour ? like i feel for most people once they get a warning or an infraction they'll stop
eg, if u post smth thats against the rules, and u get a warning for it, u know for next time not to do it, right?

Yes, that is what they do, as far as I know.

I got a couple warnings myself, acknowledge my mistakes and do my best to never, ever repeat them.

It isn't THAT easy to. If it was that easy I think I would've been banned previously.

 

[AnimalCrossingPerson]

I mean, some people do get heated about stuff, but I haven't seen any death threats and such on here, so it's not doing too badly for being on the internet.

There are ALOT of worse places.

Actually, almost everywhere I can think of is quite a bit worse then here.

Depends on the crime. I find the strictness of the rules on here somewhat inconsistent but you'll never get banned for a first-time offence unless you were to try flooding the forums with hardcore porn or something.

I'm guessing you didn't spam porn or hack someone tho

Like ACP said it depends. If you just posted something kinda mean you probably won't get insta-banned

No, I didn't xD

Yeah, that makes sense to me.

I think being rude in Brewsters Cafe is very uncalled for an uncivil. I know discussions can get heated there but people need to learn to be more respectful and not attack others for what they believe in.

Ah got it, i wasn't sure how sensitive this forum was. Considering some of the threads on the brew cafe o_o . I'll try and not mess around so often

 

[Warrior]

I think people shouldn't be getting banned for what is essentially differences in opinion, or at worst a lack of education -__-

If the userbase and mods get too obsessed with hurt feelings the boards will die.

 

[Xerolin]

i mean a lot of controversial discussion comes up so its a given people will get pretty heated and upset over things

 

[N e s s]

yeah sure people could be nicer, but thats probably not going to be happening because ~controversial topics~ always upset people based on opinion.

tbh i stopped posting in political threads bc its really not worth the time nor energy

 

[lunatepic]

uhhh probably, some people on here have a tendency to resort to passive aggressiveness and personal attacks the moment someone even slightly disagrees with their beliefs.... if someone says something insensitive/ignorant maybe try to educate them (nicely) instead of being rude - the chances of someone changing their opinions after being mocked and insulted is pretty slim this is a discussion forum, not a let's-try-to-see-who-can-act-the-most-petty forum.
oh and if you're going to post in threads about politics and religion and all that other controversial stuff people just love to get angry about, at least try to do some research on the subject first? and don't go in expecting everyone to agree with your opinion...

 

[That Marshal Fangirl]

Yeah, I think sometimes people overreact and say things they shouldn't, but also a lot of the topics are very controversial.

 

[MozzarellaSticks]

TBT is the least mean forum I know of. It?s also the only active forum I know of.

 

[Farobi]

It could be toned down but I'm fine with civilized discussion betwen two sides.

 

[Nuclear Bingo]

Honestly this is the most tame forum I have ever seen. People are no where near as mean as many. many other people on other forums or message boards

 

[MorphiGalaxi]

Thank you for all the comments everyone. It's nice to see so many users who understand what I was saying with this post.
