Im sorry shifty but wrong call to make , last year there was alot of miserable sods within these forums and alot of mardy and negative posts yet these people turned things around and amongst them gave this community a chance show a different side. Where you want to say there was too many i will say it would have stopped. People who have once argued where having fun together , just because a post might not be so clear to the thread its in doesnt mean that it should be deleted if it is causing positivity with the forum. Its called a community having a sense of humour. It has been quite over the last few weeks and people have found ways to fill the bordem , coming back after a long break and making a big decision in squashing free speach is nothing more than putting your hands in the air and saying " im back ". My post was posted ina friendly gesture it broke no rules , it contributedto a positive theme within these walls that has had so much of an hard time. I think your being silly , sorry bud but its a joke , i ddint realise all jokes had to be sensorshipped.
I have never once had my post deleted within these forums yet they are alot of contreversial ones too boot yet when i put a bit of fun post up it gets deleted. You are sending out a message to everyone that this isnt the way to be within these walls.
Lets all have the face on and be mardy people with mardy posts , to also give reason and then lock your own post so nobody can say anything reminds me of the begining of a wolrd war. This is a community driven forum with human being , if we cant have abit of fun sometimes then dont moan when people are always psoting negativity with these walls. What a bad start this has created to a new year and the community had started a fun positive side to this year.
This could have been avoided by simply posting a thread asking for no more and aprreciated the fun side of things. bang out of order to clamp the cuffs on a sense of houmour when this forum had bann full of mardy people uncluding my self. Back to being mardy guys lol
Seems like the only fun we can have is what only you class as fun like stupid giphs which you think is fun but i dont , i dont like having my speach deleted not when its in a good and friendly gesture. I dont take kindly to this one little bit. I really dont get this at all. A community leader stamping on positive looks out of a cloud of negative year is something i am totaly at a loss with.
They simply should have been moved and asked for no more , we have been making our self busy with good vibes while you had a massive holiday. Not good to walk in a delete everyones growth while your not here.
I just dont get this room i really dont
I am really shocked that only one persons idea of a fun is allowed in this community , think there is a better word than i can recall for this. Never heard of someone coming off any holiday and deleting multiple threads that the community are having fun with and got involved with whilst it was a quite period. When the devs are on hols then might as well close the room.
m8 theres tonnes more . if u want a list just say but theses u say are probably what the new players see .Originally Posted by Mice Go to original post
The fact our "Community manager" wants to remove our web chat shows exactly what Redlynx have turned into, though I'm still confident in some of the devs and they won't allow you to do something so stupid. He has clearly forgotten that webchat was also the place that he came to and also spoke to people about the problems he was having at the time, i'm sure you know what i'm talking about. Not easily forgotten.
I was not aware a forum could be turned into a dictatorship, but you really are trying. Honestly don't know why you do the things you do now.
I honestly wish we could go back to the days that we didn't have mods, and the only mods we had were the actual devs, and you got to see them post and interact with the community, been a while since I got to see that.
The forum change was a disaster, should not have happened at all, and it certainly shouldn't have happened the way that it did. Can't begin to describe how let down I was that day, felt like you literally didn't even care about all the old forum users, how many do you see now? from 2009 or further? How many of those players that you gave the "True Fan" award to do you see anymore? At what point do you pretend to care about us?
To say the least, we didn't need or want a community manager let alone the one you appointed, the guy literally argues in threads until the other person starts making sense and then locks the thread after making a sly comment, we should have more choice over our community manager and who it is. maybe if Redlynx had moderated webchat they would have had a better idea of what they had done. I guess....
It's honestly got to the point where when i do occasionally come here i see a post from this guy and it makes me so damn mad. He just shows how bad this place has become when it was so so so good before.

Whoa whoa, whats the matter with all of you? Shifty is an classic HERO. He unveiled Vladiii's true colors and served him on a platter for you to feast on. He worked very hard, moderating the forum very thoroughly dealing with all the reports that made this a very bad bad place. He poured in hours and hours of gettin the word out through PewDiePie and advertising THE game of the future with incredibly rich details such as next-gen tracks, never-seen-before objects, team tags and multiplayer! Oh did i mention multiplayer? Ease off on him guys, try to show some leniency for gods sake. I don't need to look up the definition for that now do i? Yeah? Ok Shifty, show em what leniency means. Shifty? Shift...??
I don't really post much as I'm a bit of a lurker, but I was a member of the old forum (when T2SE came out) and the atmosphere was noticeably better than it has been at the Ubi forums. I think the main problem is that they now have to work within Ubi's rules rather than their old Redlynx forums rules, which I felt were a bit more relaxed.
The way I see it is that the old forum was a bit like a family run pub that has a certain charm about it and the landlords wouldn't call the police if a small bit of trouble broke out, the Ubi forums are a bit like a pub-chain owned by a corporation that doesn't even tolerate any kind of hijinks at all. Bland corporatism trying to please everyone at the same time but ends up feeling hollow..
Hope this does get sorted though as the community and game-reps used to be a lot closer relations wise. The forums are like a still pond nowadays with only a ripple of activity every now and then.
(all this comes from my view as an outsider who has lurked at both forums for years - it doesn't affect me too much as I rarely post and interact, but even I can see it is hurting some long-time and quite active members pretty badly - maybe the way they respond some times is not right but if they didn't care at all about the game etc they wouldn't bother)
