I'm really, really tired of having to wait for Eurydice to come by and see some of the ridiculous things people say to each other on the forums. When Eury's around, things are fine, but when Eury's not around...I get really frustrated.
Seriously, I saw a post in the Graveyard from a kid with an honest question. That kid was insulted for his/her poor English----the original post was pretty bad, but it didn't deserve that kind of reaction.

I like this game, I hate just one section of the forum community. Specifically the large, vocal portion who thinks it's ok to use loaded language and name-calling to make their opinions known. My guildmates know how often I complain about the fourms----I would leave the forums, but like I said, I like this game and want to be part of the community.

The relative anonymity of the Internet doesn't mean it's okay to stop being civil, and the forum rules reflect this. It would really ease my frustration (and others', I'm sure) if we had a quick way to report what goes on here. I know that being a jerk isn't technically a bannable offense, but I want to be able to make a quiet complaint instead of calling people out and starting an argument.

If this isn't technically possible given the forum design, I'd like to know. I already assume that it's pretty low on the team's priority list, but I feel it would be a good feature for the forums.

In the meantime, you can send an in-game report with the link to the problem post, and a GM will handle it. There's someone on duty 24-7. No fun to have to load the game just to make a report, but it's faster than waiting.

Alright, thanks! I didn't want to bother a GM with forum things, but if I've got your OK...

Yep! It's in the updated forum guidelines that you can report forum violations to the GMs in game, so you're all cleared for takeoff.
