Don't be shy! - Thank you from Ty to anyone on staff who is helping to test. We loves ya! ## Round-Table and Q/A - **Bocephus Dredge:** Keep an eye on toxic players when new players are coming in and how existing players handle it. - William Hayes: We offer mediation and player reports for these reasons. If you can't handle it as the victim over a PM with the others involved, feel free to refer them to the options available. - **James Tully:** Welcome to the new mods and thanks to the Management Team for letting us help out and creating the community. - **Jaena Shaw:** This staff team is awesome and I like the way it is handled in terms of Morals and community. I'm happy to be part of the team and you are all lovely to talk to. - **Jack Burton:** It's my first time being a part of a community like this. Thank you for everyone having patience with me as I do fuck up from time to time. I appreciate the patience and I'm learning every day. Thank you! - **Gracie Medlin:** I wanted to bring something up that I'm a little concerned about with one of the staff messages. The one about staying in one place and not moving around. In a previous community a rift was created between admins and players, as staff got toxic around hanging around RP. We should be as polite as possible and not shame people for it. We should find ways to disrupt these groups and bring them into different roleplays. Find someway as players to give people quests. - **William Hayes:** We aren't trying to shame anyone, but an observation was made based on what was seen. It's not an amazing thing to have people standing around outside for hours. But it has slowed down. - **Ty Byrne:** That staff message had a focus on noting that characters have other RP. We don't want to agressively stop players from metting up and have saloons as meeting up places that actually involve RP. - **Jaena Shaw:** Some people may misconstrue the messages sent, but in General Chat CAs can give conmstructive avenues when people start getting heated in chat. There are other communities that are more harsh on things and we don't want them enforcing outside rules here. - **Joline Moondance:** It's good to see there has been a change, it's always good to keep things friendly. - **Frank Devine:** We like to show Civillian roleplay and the message could have been worded better, but it came from multiple reports and showed the roleplay isn't where was it previously. It was also a plug for the roleplay workshop. Giving people things to do and ideas when you are online to try and spark more RP. - **Joline Moondance:** I'm glad you are doing another one of those workshops as the last one was good. - **Hudson Chesterfield:** I appreciate everyone who comes in to test the stuff. It's hard to get a grasp on what is failing and what syncs over MP, so we really appreciate it. - **Jaena Shaw:** Let me break your things. - **William Hayes:** Thank you for making things. We appreciate that too!
