Negative comments in Congrats/Thank You forum

[Inseriousity.]

It makes sense to talk about someone's firing as well though. If it's implementing rule A1 then I don't have an issue about that really but this:

Personally I think they can be classed as off topic (You're not congratulating or saying thank you)

implied to me to be really strict about how topics should be responded to, which I disagree with (I've just looked at martin's firing thread because I brought it up and your first post in that thread would've fell victim to such a strict interpretation of the off-topic rule).

I'd have no problem replying to a 'troll' that's leaving the forum in that manor. Then again, promoting a negative atmosphere isn't exactly what the forum needs. I'm just contradicting myself here. Just be mean to the people that I judge, that's the best way moderators can analyze each response.

You will always see negative comments in any type of forum/topic. Sometimes negative comments counts as "constructive" to improve which that should be okay of course as long as it doesn't involve any rudeness towards to person itself. Though negative comments in a congratulation/thank you section is not constructive at all.

tbf i get that it shows staff in a bad light, but what she did was pretty crappy and petty so rly it was a bit pathetic on her half and half justified!!

[Yawn]

despicable posts! staff need to hold their tongue

The thread in question was created with the best intention, although only being staff for 4 days didn’t really warrant a thank you, the OP may have not known the circumstances at the time it was created, some 6 minutes after the announcement.

It is only upon reading the thread that senior management reveal why the member is no longer staff, and that is what changes the tone of the thread. I do believe in freedom of speech, but there are more appropriate ways of saying what needs to be said. I personally don’t think its right in a thank you thread. Vent your disappointment elsewhere, make a new thread to discuss it.

Perhaps senior management should consider changing the wording in their announcements, in circumstances like this one. Foregetfuhl (DJ Jade) is no longer HabboxLive Staff, as she has chosen to work for a competitor. We'd like to thank her for the short time she was staff.

Simple but also truthful.

Oh lord, not another thread in Feedback suggesting yet MORE rules.

Here's a revolutionary idea: let people say what they want and if you disagree then either ignore it or post back with something even more negative.

Not really suggesting more rules - just that the current rules actually be followed (A1).

Also, we're not really allowed to 'post back with something even more negative', which I take to mean posting something negative to the people that are posting negatively, because I imagine I would get caught under the 'Leave the moderating to the moderators' if I post something like 'Can we leave the negative targeting comments out the thread guys?' - which is funny if I get caught by that rule, because the moderators aren't moderating

Not exactly in keeping with congratulations and thank yours but you can't expect everyone to be liked and filtering messages through some authoritarian system that doesn't allow people to voice their opinions is far worse than these sorts of posts in a thread.
