Hello my name is Amy. I have used my husband other account because the room has banned that account with the terms toxicity , to submit this message because I have come home to find my husband very distressed and after sometime of getting him to tell me what was the matter he has opened up and told me the truth to what has been on his mind the past few months. To my surprise he shows me messages from people calling his partner " me " all types of names , his children were also included in this. He also showed me evidence he had collected that indicated that many of these were from people that have double accounts and are regularly active on his post and can be seen without a doubt that gang type approaches are massive within the room.

Taking sometime to read the post, I am very shocked to see a place supporting such things , knowing that it is down to the ps4 to monitor it is also clear that this room has also aided in the stress of my husband. It was my self that adivsed him to join a room like this , so he could get some relief from what he daily suffers with. If i had know that people like this are in these rooms i would not have ever given my husband this advice.

I have told him to report the room and its unprofessional manner to someone that can deal with this in an appropriate manner. I am a Manager of a big chain of jewellery shops and know when I see bullying in this type of environment. No proof is given " at the moment " ,but managers support this and the clear ignorance of this happening is apparent and turning the other cheek is vast, with many of the post within here.

My husband will be mortified that I approached this room , but seeing how down and depressed this room and the people in it have gotten him I feel i have no choice. Adults and developers of this room should be ashamed of themselves , the room is basically allowing this to happen. It is my understanding that he talks of this recommending and if you knew him and what he has to contend with, to actually play this game this might be understood, but I read through the entire post that happened frequently and all I can see that the developers and members of this room ganging up on someone who is very passionate about the game with an actual opposite point to what the thread was about. The thread has also, what I think is called locked so no response to the last managers post can be given , hence why I made a thread.

Whilst it is down to the ps4 or is it psn to monitor this it also down the this room to make sure threads do not become a place where gangs of people attack others simply because of their opinion. I see no where in my husbands post that is aimed towards anyone in this kind and never started the opinions of aimed towards anyone. I do not see that he has called anyone or infact caused anything that is not untrue. People of this room are the cause of harassment and are the cause of bullying. I have managed my shop for years and seen this type of thing happen constantly under the cover of false reasons.

Last of all regarding your recommended , it is without a doubt that my husband has been open and very vocal about his concerns and other things within this. He has also explained to a point about why he feels strongly about his tracks , he also spends hours and hours on his laptop trying to word posts correctly or trying to get the right feeling without causing problems. He does this for hours and sometimes does not come to bed till early hours because of his efforts in trying to make his posts or points or whatever they are called correct and without flaw. He can't ever succeed in this due to things in his life which for me is a massive positive thing that he does to try to do and show the effort he actually goes to to be kind and decent within the room ,despite the topic of the thread.

The bullying and the tactics that the developers use is not professional. You are part of the reason my husband his distressed. Calling my husband vile , messages saying bad things regarding people in his life and so forth are from people within this room , people who frequently post on his threads.

My husband will kill me for this but I feel that this room is an awful representation of what a community like this should be. Adults and developers should be ashamed of themselves. To give my husband a ban of the recommendations just because he spent hours trying to compile posts and correcting them or deleting them is very odd and to do this to a gamer in this game whilst all of it is due to the nasty nature of other people is indeed very unprofessional. I as his wife will not stand for this , where my husband will just shout and then forget it, I wont. I know a fare amount of high people within the retail industry and shall be giving me views to these people about this company and how it ignores the bullying and to a degree supports it. Looking at the tactics deployed in the thread that's concerned only shows that the developers of this game have tried to make my husband look a fool and make the thread look like it was focusing on your recommended but it was about being subjected to harassment and watched by the developers of the game which has continued for many months. There is a person i have been told who frequently causes other people harm and he does this with free roam and malicious intent which i think is disgusting to watch and continue to let happen just because he is well known.

I don't have an account and don't have time to waste playing silly games, but I do have time to stick up for my husband. I new there was something wrong with him for months and it is apparently this room and some of its people are the cause and openly do this with the attention of the rooms developers. I will not stand by and watch bullying being supported by a company that holds thousand of children at its core.

You shall be hearing from me and my husband in a more professional manner in the coming future.

regards

Hello Amy, it's a pleasure to meet you. I hope your evening were better than you explain it to be, but unfortunately it is not. Please forgive me for the length of this post, but it would be impossible to reply without specific quotes.

Hello my name is Amy. I have used my husband other account because the room has banned that account with the terms toxicity , to submit this message because I have come home to find my husband very distressed and after sometime of getting him to tell me what was the matter he has opened up and told me the truth to what has been on his mind the past few months. To my surprise he shows me messages from people calling his partner " me " all types of names , his children were also included in this. He also showed me evidence he had collected that indicated that many of these were from people that have double accounts and are regularly active on his post and can be seen without a doubt that gang type approaches are massive within the room.

I can understand the distress of a loved one. It's not something that anyone enjoys seeing, and unfortunate that you are having the displeasure of being involved in at the moment. As for any messages that your partner (I'm going to call him "funk" from now on) received on platforms other than the Ubisoft forums are, unfortunately, nothing that we can do anything about. I previously explained this to funk. Much like the multiple accounts rating his creations down. It's unfortunate, but there is nothing we can do about people voting that they don't like a track with multiple accounts as long as platform owners (Sony and/or Microsoft) allow a single console to be used with multiple accounts. I would be interested in seeing the evidence of this, as a player's vote isn't shown anywhere in Track Central except for the logged in account.

Taking sometime to read the post, I am very shocked to see a place supporting such things , knowing that it is down to the ps4 to monitor it is also clear that this room has also aided in the stress of my husband. It was my self that adivsed him to join a room like this , so he could get some relief from what he daily suffers with. If i had know that people like this are in these rooms i would not have ever given my husband this advice.

I'm sure that if you take a look around, there are many posts where other forum users are actively encouraging your partner. Bullying is not accepted here and the proper course of action is to report the post for moderation overview. Engaging in altercations with bullies by calling them names leaves everyone in a no-win situation.

I have told him to report the room and its unprofessional manner to someone that can deal with this in an appropriate manner. I am a Manager of a big chain of jewellery shops and know when I see bullying in this type of environment. No proof is given " at the moment " ,but managers support this and the clear ignorance of this happening is apparent and turning the other cheek is vast, with many of the post within here.

I think your perspective on the situation is possibly biased towards your partner, and that's fine, it's to be expected and it shouldn't be different. That being said; funk has made quite a few posts about his very strong feelings about certain aspects of the game, on numerous occasions, and doesn't seem to want to understand or accept the answers he is given. By posting the same rant-styled posts two things are shown:

a) funk is a very passionate member of the Trials community.
b) Many people do not agree with him and are annoyed by the same points, that they consider wrong, being made on a regular basis.

The reason funk is receiving negative public replies to his messages are because he seems unwilling to try to see why some things are the way they are, are working as intended, and will not be changed. Responding to funk's posts in highly explanatory way, and having the reasons seemingly ignored, takes my attention away from other players and their issues, ideas, suggestions and feedback.

My husband will be mortified that I approached this room , but seeing how down and depressed this room and the people in it have gotten him I feel i have no choice. Adults and developers of this room should be ashamed of themselves , the room is basically allowing this to happen. It is my understanding that he talks of this recommending and if you knew him and what he has to contend with, to actually play this game this might be understood, but I read through the entire post that happened frequently and all I can see that the developers and members of this room ganging up on someone who is very passionate about the game with an actual opposite point to what the thread was about. The thread has also, what I think is called locked so no response to the last managers post can be given , hence why I made a thread.

You have read one thread that is part of an ongoing pattern of established behavior. Every person here is treated equally. That means that behavior toxic to the forum community will be dealt with regardless of who that person is. Yes, I locked the thread as it had no hope of continuing in a positive manner.

I have also locked this thread, so if you would like to respond to it, please send me a private message instead of creating a new thread in response.

Whilst it is down to the ps4 or is it psn to monitor this it also down the this room to make sure threads do not become a place where gangs of people attack others simply because of their opinion. I see no where in my husbands post that is aimed towards anyone in this kind and never started the opinions of aimed towards anyone. I do not see that he has called anyone or infact caused anything that is not untrue. People of this room are the cause of harassment and are the cause of bullying. I have managed my shop for years and seen this type of thing happen constantly under the cover of false reasons.

You are speaking of one very specific thread. Unfortunately forum threads are not singular instances of contact and the posts we make elsewhere can, and are, read by others who frequent the forums. You also are not able to view the posts made to this thread that your partner made and then deleted. I, however, am able to read those posts and there are insults aimed at others.

Last of all regarding your recommended , it is without a doubt that my husband has been open and very vocal about his concerns and other things within this. He has also explained to a point about why he feels strongly about his tracks , he also spends hours and hours on his laptop trying to word posts correctly or trying to get the right feeling without causing problems. He does this for hours and sometimes does not come to bed till early hours because of his efforts in trying to make his posts or points or whatever they are called correct and without flaw. He can't ever succeed in this due to things in his life which for me is a massive positive thing that he does to try to do and show the effort he actually goes to to be kind and decent within the room ,despite the topic of the thread.

Your husband has been the only person who has had issue with more than ONE group of selections for the Uplay Recommended, and those only occur on weeks when his track creations are not included in the selections. There are tens of thousands of tracks. The people making those tracks are spending hours working on them. They likely think highly of their efforts as well. We typically highlight five tracks a week. That means that many, many creations will not be featured.

While I appreciate the effort that funk is using to try to make kind and decent posts, that's not typically how they read. This is directly relevant to the locking of his previous thread. His ban, however, is more to do with the PM he sent me afterwards.

The bullying and the tactics that the developers use is not professional. You are part of the reason my husband his distressed. Calling my husband vile , messages saying bad things regarding people in his life and so forth are from people within this room , people who frequently post on his threads.

I'm not sure where you see bullying from us, but if you can show me something where any developer is sending your husband vile messages it will be dealt with. People disagreeing with him on a publicly viewable forum is not the same as bullying, though. We won't always like the responses we get, but that doesn't mean that someone saying "Oh, get off it, not this again" is any less worthy an opinion to post than someone's thoughts on Uplay Recommended.

My husband will kill me for this but I feel that this room is an awful representation of what a community like this should be. Adults and developers should be ashamed of themselves. To give my husband a ban of the recommendations just because he spent hours trying to compile posts and correcting them or deleting them is very odd and to do this to a gamer in this game whilst all of it is due to the nasty nature of other people is indeed very unprofessional. I as his wife will not stand for this , where my husband will just shout and then forget it, I wont. I know a fare amount of high people within the retail industry and shall be giving me views to these people about this company and how it ignores the bullying and to a degree supports it. Looking at the tactics deployed in the thread that's concerned only shows that the developers of this game have tried to make my husband look a fool and make the thread look like it was focusing on your recommended but it was about being subjected to harassment and watched by the developers of the game which has continued for many months. There is a person i have been told who frequently causes other people harm and he does this with free roam and malicious intent which i think is disgusting to watch and continue to let happen just because he is well known.

Your husband's forum suspension is for 2 weeks. This was done in an effort to allow him time to calm down, and for other members of the community to calm down as well. It was not done at any community members recommendation. Your husband has asked the same questions time and time again, in a very negative manner. Often at the expense of the work and effort of others, and usually by generalizing the actions of a few so as to encompass the full community.

I assume you mean the same person that your husband previously mentioned in much the same fashion. We do not typically talk about forum standing or warnings/infractions (this whole instance that we are in right now is so far outside of the box that it's basically it's own thing) and as such I will not talk about the repercussions that he may or may not face for his posts.

I will say that your husband has never reported a single post from that member.

I don't have an account and don't have time to waste playing silly games, but I do have time to stick up for my husband. I new there was something wrong with him for months and it is apparently this room and some of its people are the cause and openly do this with the attention of the rooms developers. I will not stand by and watch bullying being supported by a company that holds thousand of children at its core.

Your husband should have informed you that accessing the forums from his second account while he is under temporary suspension is cause for both accounts to be permanently suspended as per the rules that are agreed to when creating an account. I won't ban them today, but I will be closing this thread. As I previously mentioned, please feel free to send me a PM if a follow-up is required. Please be advised, you should not make further posts from an account that your husband "owns" for the duration of his suspension. This is considered ban-dodging as it is impossible for us to know for sure who is making the posts.

I am sorry that you feel that this forum is causing distress in your husband, but having players from all over the world speaking about something they are passionate about is going to cause some tempers to flare and for things to get heated. Unfortunately it seems that more often than not, your husband is involved with these situations.
