No one needs to apologize, it's just something I'm bringing up, not getting angry at people for. But thank you Dandy for your response. <3
This forum used to be heavily moderated before I took it over, and I've been really lax with the replies on the threads so far, but I think it's time to draw boundaries. These are threads to discuss new updates with other clan members, and I would like to keep it on a discussion-based level.
"This update means nothing to me." - Well, that post means nothing to me or anyone else. It doesn't belong in a discussion thread. Rather, expand upon it, such as, "This update means nothing to me. I was really hoping they'd release an aura that could help with [insert effective training method here] but it doesn't look like it. I'm pretty disappointed."
Just something constructive like that.
And Zephyr, I do disagree. If someone has the desire to post how much they hate an update, then it wouldn't really take too much extra time to throw an additional sentence or two onto it explaining why. In the way you explain it, the person is so angry about the update, that they can't be bothered with explaining why they hate it. But if they actually hated it THAT much, hated it enough to post about it, it wouldn't really take any effort for them to explain why it bothered them so much. Otherwise they would just stay as far away from the thread as possible instead of posting anything at all.
As I said before, I'm not angry with anyone. I'm just posting this as a heads-up. The previous staff member that ran this thread deleted every single comment that had any sort of negative tone about an update; I'm here to welcome all comments, positive or negative, but I do ask that negative ones at least have a little more reasoning behind them, as it just kills the mood of the discussion when people come in and post one-liners about how Jagex fails or how the update is terrible.
Hopefully this clears everything up. I don't really want to go back to the old method of deleting every negative comment in each thread. Everyone has their own opinions and not everyone is going to like an update, and that is perfectly fine.
