Mihaly is learning

This is why I rarely host events. The harassment doesn't harm me that much, but it's all I see when I host events. Maybe if one day the community was really nice to admins and especially the newer ones, that would make me very happy.

And might make me start hosting again.

[Draco]

Aww, I feel sorry for you now

[Xadis]

Everyone be nice

[jeni]

Yeah of course, it's worse than ever to be honest. Ask Jeni I know that she specifically is appalled by the amount of harassment. I had people telling me they hate me all the time as a PR. It's pretty bad and I feel bad for the PR's especially since they volunteer time to make the game better for everyone...

Yes as much as I love the game and most of the community, there are a handful of players that can be downright vicious. They personally attack who you are, call you names, and spew vulgarity at you via PM or in public chat. Currently some red bear guy is actively harassing me calling me lesbian, I suck, and who knows what else. I have no idea who he is, but his parents must be proud. When I was a PR, I hosted events faithfully everyday, did Facebook EC, gave dolls and statues to every request...finally the rudeness of some players started affecting me personally. I really became sad about it not understanding how I could put in so many hours and work tirelessly for them and yet they were just downright cruel. I never even as much thought those nasty things about another human being. Eventually, I stopped doing events all together. I notice where almost all PRs would gladly accommodate players by hosting events daily for them, now most avoid it like the plague honestly. Thankfully my role evolved to managing the forums primarily and other offline work, this saved me as a staff member because if I had stayed a PR, I am quite positive I would have left all together by now. Now you see me rarely online and if I am, I frequently disallow PMs. I do this because I am mostly working on offline items or forum follow-up things but it also does shield me from some of that negativity and nonsense. While I am able to avoid those nasty in-game comments, I still get to deal with a handful of rude emails or posts on Graalians bashing me.

All very sad, and for what?? Anyway, just more raw honesty for y'all...if you are applying for staff, please make sure you have thick skin. Every person hired will need to prepare to deal with some type of negativity and harassment.

Is Darkknight still bothering you? He said something bout you on Graalians.

[Xadis]

Admins should disable freebies, stop hosting events, no auctions and no ec uploads for one week. Than we can see how grateful we are to have such good, nice and faithful admins.

Yes he is the main one, I have seen all his hate toward me thru his Graalians posts. Amazingly two players who had been notorious for pretty hardcore bashing me disagreed with his comments toward me (Era went to hell because of jeni)....that actually gave me some renewed faith in the human race.

Don't listen to what they say. They are just mad and jealous of you lol

[Xadis]

wow lol rofl

[jeni]

Awww thanks Oreos, but wasn't trying to derail the thread and make it about me at all. I just think some players view staff as this glamorous role and I want to be real and share that while it can be fun and rewarding, there are some non-pleasant aspects that the applicants should be prepared to deal with.
