    It's nearly October and the polls for the next project and skin contests are now open! And don't be disheartened, there's still an extra spooky something coming your way next month as well.

    Get your votes in... or else. Muhahahaha.

    Violet Evergarden has got to be my top anime of all time. Like, there's absolutely no contest for it personally.

    My second, Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash is still about half a mile down my favorites.

    High quality, interesting story, lovely pacing, and the MC is broken on several levels. You couldn't make a more tailored story for me.

    Have yet to see it myself as I'm not big on anime in general as my profile would lie to you. It just happens to interest me purely because of bright colors, seriously.

    Have no opinion, but my top anime is Puella Magi Madoka Magica, which is a masterpiece on many levels.

    As far as I am aware it is since it's a Netflix Original. Not sure if it'd be on KyoAni's page.

    Not everyone can be a Leader, many are born to Follow. This does not make you any less valuable and also does not deny you from becoming one.

    Those that stand at the front must be confident, strong, and willing to stand on their own against all odds. That can get stressful, especially when you have a thousand eyes reacting to your every move.

    Those that follow are the real strength behind any great leader. They are the ones that build the cities, defend against every attack, and help those in need. This is the balance of Society.

    I must be doing something right when there are people behind what I have to say even if they are ramblings of a mind far too gone. Whether my thoughts are good or bad is another matter, hard to know when people like and ditch.

    I don't bite...hard. Just a nibble, definitely not going to saute you in herb butter with a sprig of parsley.

    What are the point of Moderators if their response to everything is "Please submit a ticket?"

    You could replace them with a bot and never tell the difference. Wait, what if they already have? Think about it.

    INB4 if I have a complaint please send in a ticket. Please send all responses via PM and I'll get back to you later...maybe....as soon as I can come up with interesting canned responses.

    Perhaps the phrase 'wash hands of the matter" is not the right phrase to use and I am writing this slightly half-tired and half-annoyed as it is mostly because the only way to get a response out of staff is to throw a book at them.

    The idea of Tickets is appealing, trust me, I get that. In execution it's nothing more than a dead end for discussion, period. It should not be the place where every single site issue is handled by the team, rather should be a place for extreme circumstances such as Account Recovery or Critical Bugs. Having people submit the daily "Turn Texture page into Resources" should not be clogging it at all. I personally think it would harm nobody to let those be in the forums which are underused as it is.

    I know you're all volunteers and I have been one myself for some events. It's not like I'm saying you guys should reply to everything the moment it comes in, but that a personal greeting is welcome once in a while. Even if you want to tell me to go to Tickets, copy pasting "If you ... please submit ...."

    Like, "Hey, that sounds like a wonderful idea, but we'd appreciate your feedback here." which would not upset me. Before I finish this, I want to thank you for listening. Even if you think it hollow, know that I do appreciate that you replied to me the way you did.

    Sidenote: wallposts broke, random double spacing for some reason.

    Alright, about 6 layers of abstraction back, you are referred to the ticket section so that there is a record of when an issue is handled. The "death" of said community is a little of a non sequitur, the tickets system is meant to be a go to interface for mods and users to work out issues in a way that remains in a static record. Additionally, because they are public, it allows for moderator discussion of any serious issues of special cases in the rules.The idea that we ask you to go to tickets or tell you to read the rules and then wash our hands of the matter is a misconception based on faulty observations. Do not forget that all of the mods are volunteers, so handling issues takes longer than you might want. I just ask you be a bit more patient, we're not trying to agonize you, we're literally only here because we care enough about the site to volunteer what free time we can to fix the issues that members have here.

    I'll admit to its convenience of the system, but when you shove every issue, complaint, and recommendation that people make at 2 AM, you drain away what little life there is in a community. No point in posting on the forums any problem you have in the hopes of getting responses from people only when one of you guys come and say "If you have a suggestion, post it here."

    Case in point, look at "What do YOU want to see in Minecraft?" which completely kills any and all conversation for discussing any particular point of the game into one spammy thread of people saying stuff. Everything is a one-way street and, for a community fansite, there's not much of that, is there?

    You hear, but you do not listen. Just because it's easy does not make it inherently good. Moderators should stand as not only upkeepers of Rules, but also as representatives of a place that people can relate to. They are the example of what people can be if they set their mind to it.

    There is no connection on a basic social level. You're no better than Customer Service whose priority is to shove people through the queue even when they need a tiny bit of help. What the hell do you do all day that you can't take a few minutes to provide a more human response than "Read this rule, now go leave me alone?"

    I could go into more, but all this is going to do is tick me off as you refer me to the tickets section and disregard any other point I have to make, wiping your hands clean of any mess.

    The ticket system is how those problems are handled. The point is to have a static, public, record of user issues, who handled them, and how they were resolved. Handling issues in private messages is very disorganized and causes more problems than you know.

    Hello Asendra, I am commenting with a question. On your map "Abyss" Headquarters Basement there is no download, and I respect that because you worked hard on it. Is there any way though that I could download the map, I would be willing to pay money for it.

    Last More-tivational piece of advice (More-tivational...More motivational...you people have no sense of humor)

    Maturity is not about being an adult. People seem to misunderstand this term entirely for lack of crude jokes, swearing, and other unpleasantries when that's just the surface.

    Being mature means you are capable of separating fun from responsibility and acting appropriately in every day situations. This does not mean you can't ever make a toillet joke, but that it means reserve it for private settings.

    Know the time and place for everything. This is the main point of my frustration with this site for the last five years in that people have been black and white about bubblewrapping and often for the worst.

    It is safe to say those who come here now are less mature than they were when I first came here. You are not an adult if you wear the suit, you simply have not learned when it's okay to loosen your tie. A community needs people that are more loose than others or you create a prison.

    ...I feel like this would be better as either a blog or forum post. Feel free to leave a comment or let me know if you want to hear more of these sort of ramblings.

    When you have an interesting skill and use it to putz around rather than make a living off of it.

    In my defense, though, almost everyone is a graphic designer / artist. My choice of a backup to writing was not a well-thought out one. I should have double-downed on engineering when I had the chance.

    It makes me sad to see people want to live in bubbles in fear of the unknown. Loneliness, isolation, boredom, missing out on wonderful sights and experiences.

    You don't need to jump out of your comfort zone, but stepping outside will do no harm. The world is a beautiful place if you simply open your eyes.

    Popularity is being the first person to arrive at the club and the last to leave when the party is over.

    Being a fan is still going to the same place even when everyone else has gone down the street.

    Random thoughts are random.
