I've hesitated from making a thread like this...but after seeing what happened on Sleepywood and what is beginning to happen on SouthPerry.net, I figure I'd give it a shot- whether anyone wants to listen or not.
Before reading this thread stop and ask yourself if you are mature enough to engage in an intelligent conversation and if you think you may have the tendency to flame, leave this thread now. Don't waste our time.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've been seeing a lot of topics saying "Yellonde fuckin sucks" and similar things. Yellonde is what you make it. If you choose to create a server full of immature and impulsive idiots, then that's your choice. A lot of people including myself came to Yellonde looking for a new start, not because we were "outcasts" from our old servers but because we wanted to start anew and give it a try and see what we could make of it. I have a strong group of friends in Scania and a good guild and alliance. I went into Yellonde with an open mind not expecting anything in return or trying to be "Number 1." The sad fact is, if you are so worried about being the best in a video game at the expense of hurting the feelings of other human beings, then you need to really re-check your morals.
I'm not here to make a whiny case to anyone or to come off as "Oh I'm better than you" or anything like that. I'd hate to see a server with such potential that frankly has a lot of decent people. You're going to get ass holes anywhere, but if you don't try to rise above the jerks in the server...then you're just as bad as them and you'll be creating an even bigger problem. People in GMS wonder "Why do all the other versions hate us?" You get answers like "Because GMSers are little rich brats," or "Because they're jerks." That's not totally true. Again, this goes back to making it what you want it to be. If people would just maybe actually treat others a little nicer and stop thinking about only themselves we might get somewhere. I could get into a long discussion about everyone disliking NEXON America, but I know that would just provoke an even bigger flame war.
I guess what I'm trying to say is people have to stop counting Yellonde out so soon. We still have a chance to make this server great...we just have to get our priorities straight. I hope no one takes this post too personally and I hope you are all mature enough to discuss this and share your opinions on the direction of this server. We really need to stop with these immature posts and comments towards others. We're not Sleepywood.net, are we? We can rise above them.
Note To Mods: I realize this thread has the potential to be catastrophic and I take responsibility for posting this. Lets hope the South Perry community is mature enough to not ruin this thread.
