Discord Community Group

I was going to respond to the most recently situation on the RM Central forums but our topic has been locked..

 

The Discord channel is intended to be used to bring people together socially, the result is a community of people who each have their own opinions, values and experiences. We expect arguments to break out at any time, the server administration team is aware of the problems occurring and will respond appropriately after consulting each other as a group.

 

As a community we do not tolerate targeted discrimination or defamation. The most effective way to avoid having situations escalate is to remove yourself from it and to personally notify administration or moderation about what is happening. Issues do take time to resolve because they need to be handled properly, our immediate reaction is to find what instigated the issue and to take countermeasures from having it re-occur again after moderation has stepped in.

 

 

I value having an inclusive community available where we are free to discuss our ideas and opinions -- this is a creative outlet for many people and it's important for it to remain that way for everyone and including those who may be interested in being a part of the community.

 

The group is still open, these hiccups happen and anyone who left is welcome to rejoin while things get resolved if they'd like.

This.    If people can't be tolerant of others' beliefs or values without resorting to slurs, then they don't belong in a chat room, IMO.

what about admins who abuse their powers, aka kicking without so much as a warning, what will you do about them?

The issue has been dealt with, Chibae. An admin communications channel was created so we can discuss problems when they occur. If you'd care to see what was mentioned then you are welcome to read on:
 

 

 

 
On the topic of administrative action during the event of an issue arising between members of the community -- use this channel immediately before taking any other actions, please.
 
 
While I'm aware that this is not my server but I've had enough experience to know how to deal with problems before they go too far and spread like what had happened earlier.
 
 
As far as I'm concerned we're locked out of RMCentral now and that was the community I was most active in, it's discouraging to see a simple issue tear everything apart.
 
 
A while ago I joined a voice channel and told everyone they spend too much time here, together. I wasn't joking or lying. People seriously need to get over their problems if they want to continue having an outlet where everyone can appreciate every aspect of game design.
 
 
So please, before kicking or making an immediate repercussive action that might potentially harm the community, discuss the issue with me because I can offer advice.
 
 
You should only need to remove someone from the chat when it's taken too far and the issue is not resolving after discussing the problem.

 

 

 

 

 

What can be done is to make people aware of what happened and how to prevent it from occurring again. Not all people have experienced the same issues before and aren't aware of what they should do when problems happen.

 

The dust has mostly been left to settle, I'd appreciate it if everyone could get past this and continue enjoying what we have but I'm also aware that not everyone will be able to.
