I'm just in a bad mood, sorry. I'm trying to give my opinions on the matter now.

I'm just worried about my future breeding projects. I personally love this update, but I could also do without it. Like, it's not a HUGE game changer, but there should be some way to revert the eyes back to normal.

I've posted here before and kinda out of spite of all the fighting that was going on. I've been on this site since it opened to the public and I've NEVER seen staff do something like this. While I understand they're only human and can only do so much but like,,, deleting posts (besides the abusive/fighting ones) isn't,, a very good thing to do? Now correct me if I'm wrong because I just saw comments here and there that they deleted constructive criticism posts. Please listen to the good the fanbase has to say staff :(

I still very much enjoy the update and it pains me to see the players turning on each other so suddenly over this. I'll be looking forward to whats in store for us in the elemental holidays!

Y'all.... please.... pm each other if you're going to argue.....

I was told to use the contact support link, got an email saying it was being looked into, and have not heard back yet. I have been here since 2013 myself and have always been happy with the staff and the site. I even understood a lot of the decision they were making and why (that others may not have agreed with in the past,) but as a very long-term user, I feel very let down with their communication and handling of the situation alone. And still. No words. No response. Nothing. No explanation. Please, say something to us.

[quote name="Trix" date="2018-06-10 17:49:19" ] I gotta admit, I don't see why they'd need to talk it over with their artists. The art is already there. But more importantly...it deeply worries me that they wouldn't have considered that this would be an item folks wanted [i]before[/i] starting the launch. As you say--a lot goes into putting these things together. That's why I'm so confused as to how this went down and how unprepared they seemed for the backlash. Surely they had to know this would happen if they: 1) changed everyone's existing dragons while claiming they hadn't 2) created a new game mechanic and only gave everyone three days to prepare/adjust 3) introduced a random, uncontrollable gene that basically acts as a tert (multi-gaze, I mean. I'm sorry, that should've been a tertiary. It effects the [i]entire dragon[/i]. Like, it literally effects more of the dragon that filigree does) [/quote] So much yes. This whole thing had to have been passed through several people- how did no one see these glaring problems?

Vitriol I can understand, but can you really blame people for being angry that you'd pull something like this on them? A site entirely dedicated to customizing and changing your dragon to how YOU want, and then giving them a huge feature they have no choice in that's going to disappear forever in a few days? All around incredibly insulting. I can't believe this went through without anyone thinking that this would end poorly. It's a good thing registration is opening permanently, because I get the feeling a lot of people aren't going to stick around after this. Especially given the past controversy this site has gotten itself into... Happy Anniversary, I guess. [/quote] This. Finally, we get some words from the staff, and they seem unwilling to even consider our suggestions. This whole thing just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. [/quote] It wasn't even just this post. Several of us, including myself, were censored on the forum as well and not even told why. No one was mean. A lot of people ended up censored and little to no word is given back. I have been here since 2013 and this is the FIRST time I, personally, feel like I have been treated very poorly. Me and everyone else. [/quote] I was talking in a thread about the update. It was a very civil thread just talking about concerns regarding the time frame and whatnot. It got deleted without warning last night. No one was being rude or unfair. [/quote] Just a repost since I feel like it got lost. If that's against the rules, my apologies and I'm more than willing to delete this. It just doesn't sit right with me how everyone's been treated.

This. Finally, we get some words from the staff, and they seem unwilling to even consider our suggestions. This whole thing just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

@demonhatchet They didn't seem upset by it? There are people from all over the world on Flight Rising, and people can have very good English but still trip up over implications of certain phrases sometimes, and then misunderstandings happen. It looked like it was one of those times?
