i’m fine with removing sexual shit / erp because some people might just find that disgusting when they’re trying to enjoy a shift but don’t go all-out and remove the bee spirit like jeebus
keep the teenagers bc they don’t care about a good ol’ slur once in a while but for god’s sake stop child-proofing it because a 9 year-old can’t run byond ffs.
Beestation is not a democracy, we just like to make you think it is sometimes
What the fuck, guys. I thought we were done with this ‘have a vote that is overwhelmingly rejected by the community and then do whatever the fuck we wanted anyway’ bullshit.
Pretending to not care about the players opinions isn’t funny when you actually don’t care about the players opinions.
honestly if something rule wise was put to a vote like [Poll] Free the copypastas was it SHOULD be done admins shouldn’t just put a vote and be like it might not happen if you want a vote regarding it then make sure to do what the vote result wants thats why votes exist for people to vote for a change and it to happen not for the answer to be given and then admins going HMMM LETS IGNORE THE MAJORITY
A response to the two-faced individuals in the community who lock and delete topics/comments. Wanted to post it in the appropiate thread but oopsie woopsie locked. Nonetheless it applies to this same very thread because it’s the same topic.
I feel for me personally and alot of other people the biggest gripe with the situation was the hipocrisy of it all.
Rules are changed and are pushed further more and more into an extreme, punishing people for jokingly made remarks that wouldn’t really raise an eyebrow in most places and here before. I mean just do a discord chat search on most jannies.
Then one of the headfigures posts the image, some denial posts are made and it escalates further. It ends with a half-assed attempt to placate playerbase with a transfer of the discord from kev to discord, while still remaining in a prominent role, perms and all. Ok, but what about the permabans given to others though?
What is hall of shame? Also with all due respect, but don’t perhaps post underage 2d children pregnant of piglets and perhaps you won’t get that stamp put on you. It’s a bit cringe. This isn’t an excuse for whatever Kate supposedly posted in the past, I haven’t seen that. However this has grown a bit bigger than just Kate and Kev.
By your own standard Zoey, you shouldn’t be allowed. You’re a two-faced schizo mongrel who has said some very heinous shit in the past and you meant it. You also tried to excuse the posting of lolicon with your 20 iq mental gymnastics height calculations. You’re no better chief.
In final, why the fuck are people like Average Joe still permabanned for a clear meme post like ‘‘yea I’m a racist and no I won’t apoligize’’, but meanwhile this shit gets half-excused away. Uh oh gamerword bad, but 2d children porn somewhat alright?
*Edit
And if this is supposedly the image that Kate sent at the time, you can really go fuck yourself if you compare some cringe weeb anime shit to literally pregnant with piglets. Mind you I don’t even like Kate, but if this is the picture I really despise the narrative that some people try to put out there, trying to take away attention from the actual situation.
So you’re going to get permanently banned without appeal from the community then chief? I somehow doubt it. My biggest gripe personally, besides the before mentioned, is the denial and Kate getting accused of lying, saying you posted lolicon. This is how it was explained to me. I really feel like dishonesty as such is a big no-no.
Understandably your position makes things complicated, but this all seems like a fever dream. They could perhaps bee realistic and look at the rules and how they are applied and reconsider them.
Instead we get this half-assed move while doubling down on them. The shit you posted was pretty cringe and just seemed dumb. I’m not going to get on my high horse to say it offended me personally.
It could’ve been a good eye-opener in how absurd the current situation is. Seeing that now that one of the head figures done did wrong himself, even worse than some of the permabanned people.
Instead we got this dumb half-assed situation, with the bonus mentally challenged zoey spewing his shit in between.
I honestly cant agree more with your takes on this. This was a chance for positive change. We could have taken a good hard look at the rules and how they are currently interpreted and fixed some of the shit going on. But instead, we get a hypocritical double down on them. The people at the top are basically exempt from the rules they enforce on everyone below them. If anyone else had posted that image, they would be permabanned and their appeal would be denied. No one would have defended them. No fighting over things like “well technically her height” and “no she is of age i promise” would have occurred. we would have never heard from that person again, because no one would have cared enough.
But here we are. Kev basically commit status suicide. No matter how many people try to redirect blame to the community, this is the result of rules Kev helped create and enforce, and his own actions. Kate makes a joke based off of his own cringe post? Banned. But him? basically nothing. Sure the discord ownership changed, but effectively nothing else. he wasnt punished. He didn’t even lose any power other than being “the owner”. and I dont think he is going to. But the staff cannot make exceptions if they go down this road. If they choose to enforce these rules this way, they cannot let Kev off the hook. It needs to be fair. Everyone gets perma’d for that kind of thing, or no one gets perma’d for making shitty cringe jokes. you CANNOT do both.
You act as if this is the man’s only crime. He was already game banned for general shittery and has been many times before. He was then community banned for spamming up the forums with gamer word (six new topics, two posts in existing topics) and then claims to be an unapologetic actual racist in a ban appeal he made while ban evading. The cries for Joe being mistreated fall on deaf ears I’m afraid.
But on the other hand you’re comparing this to a first offense at posting an offensive but non-explicit content. Kev would have been softbanned for his first offense if he could have been just like almost everyone else so far - Kev was treated much worse for doing it as the leader of the server.
The only people being outright permabanned for first offense from discord/community have posted mass spam or explicit content such as goatse. Everyone else has either gotten their warning bean first or had their ban removed almost immediately. The only pending immediate permaban over a joke is xDyou threatening to dox Kev, and the process on that looks like it’s not going to stay permanent.
TL;DR
Kev’s image implies beastiality with a child. This is fucking disgusting, but was as a joke and a first offense. Not directly explicit so it warrants the same punishments others get for distasteful humor
Average Joe was banned for repeated rule violations on top of being something of a shitter (definitely not the worst, he was fun to watch when he wasn’t wrecking MRP)
Kate was banned for harassment ultimately, and her appeal is ongoing. Her ban was not immediate and didn’t come without warning.
Numerous people have been banned for WGW because no matter it’s meme status, it is explicit. It’s not funny, it’s just as disgusting as that pig image and also tells the story of a probable minor. Bans for this are also not permanent now unless it’s repeated.
