Although I agree with that, the other side of the coin is that just because there's a lack of decency and an excess of toxicity among the pure community shouldn't mean that the website allows itself to remain a platform to spread that further. Now that more main communities are around, the loss of activity through removing/stopping the idiotic toxicity would be more than compensated for.

Witchcraft Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 Idk I enjoy it. I think it adds another dimension to the pure clanning world. I CBF checking in on the multiple different clans forums daily to keep up with gossip. Regarding the toxicity - I consider the majority of it all to be competitive banter.. but I guess I don't take the game/clan community or myself particularly seriously (there are exceptions to this ... And some people do take it too far) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now it seems very stagnant. At one point it was only FI, EOP, CP, and CT after MM closed if I remember correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cut down the opportunity for propaganda and more constructive posts will occur. In all honesty, Discord is the future for clanning. I have not been back to Sharkbrew discord since I saw how toxic it was but that is easily improved by moderation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3 clan HPC era of 2014 was pretty scary before we merged scenes with zu/sup etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see clans being chucked from the community wholesale and be re-energised with people who are willing to work for the common benefit of the scene. As an aside, I'd also love to see something similar to the RAW ranking list for F2P and P2P. I think it would go a small way to boost activity and stop toxic shit posting by solidifying rankings. That means if someone thinks their clan is #1, they declare, rather than being toxic and smearing their shit all over the walls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
