Looks good! Hopefully, the changes made will be acceptable.

What is your favorite genre for TV shows/movies/books?

Bonus question: What is your favorite series?

Good luck to all of the applicants!

Still, pointless to add. Even if she didn't mean what it came off as, what's the point of announcing a name change and then saying "WE HOPE we can keep our old name, and the person making us change it, apologizes"
It's like going "WE hope our teacher doesn't make us change our team name, and apologizes for making us change it"
it's a jab.
I'm sorry, it is what it is.

And I disagree with that interpretation. But you know what? I'm so tired of arguing today, that I just don't care anymore. Go ahead and keep stirring the pot, because at this point I think that's all you're doing. To me, it doesn't look like you're arguing in good faith. I give up.

What's the point of announcing your changing your name, and then telling the person making you do it to "apologise, and let us keep our old name"
there's a tone, that's very clearly there.

You're leaving out the part that says "we hope." She isn't trying to force anyone to do anything.

"we hope damen apologises and hopefully, lets us keep the name witch" is kinda a very sarcastic jab at Damen.
It's kind've like going "FIne, I'll clean my room. Hopefully when I'm done it'll be cleaned to your SATISFACTION"
it's a very crass thing to say.

I think you're attributing a tone to that post that isn't meant to be there.

Hopefully, this whole ordeal can finally be put to rest.

Are we really re-hashing this for the 5th time today? I thought this was settled?

With everything that goes on around here, idk how you have time to do anything but make these videos xD

I did not call Damen's beliefs lunacy, I called the response as a whole lunacy. I say what I see and make no attempt to hide it, for better or worse. I am that way no matter who it's in reference to or who I am friends with. If you don't like my bluntness, then so be it, but it's not going to change.

Also nice strawman about religion and comparing witches to terrorists. No one was demanding that anything be added, just trying to find a solution to the problem, and getting clarification for why.

Thanks door.
This is one of those moments when I realise I could've should've dealt with it in a different way.

This reply gives me hope. I also hope you consider my thread.

In this post, I'm going to call things how I see them and break some things down in the hopes that we can all learn something from all this.

In short, I believe that this entire situation was handled very poorly. To start with, we all woke up to a post saying that all witches are KOS, with no reason given, and no willingness to actually look into the group and what it's about. Some time later, after tremendous backlash from the community, we get told that it's because of personal and religious reasons. Okay, that's fine, but that could have (and should have) been stated in the original post. That is why there was such a harsh response from the community: it appeared to be done for no reason out of the blue, and when people tried to start a dialog, they were ignored, leading to even more frustration.

Instead of just blindly marking the group KOS, it would have been really nice if instead there had been any sort of conversation or dialog about it: "Hey, I don't really want a role play group like this in the game because this, this, and this, can you guys make some changes?" That would have likely avoided the entire situation today, and everyone would probably be happy right now.

Lastly, when someone makes a very valid thread trying to give feedback, it gets shut down and removed. That is a very concerning look, and indicates that feedback of any sort isn't welcome; it's my way or the high way. Yes, Damen owns the game and is entitled to control, but this makes me think that our thoughts and inputs don't matter at all, which would be really disappointing. There were some really valid criticisms raised, and I would really hope that when valid criticisms are raised, they aren't just ignored and removed. I hope I am wrong about this, and that it can be cleared up.

I sincerely hope that this doesn't just get swept under the rug, and we can all learn from this and be better in the future.
