Granted, I can't check every single entry from the FFXIV tag, but still, I don't understand where the idea that Tumblr is a dramafest for immature people came from (?_?)
Most of the things I see are people posting screenshots and having fun.
As for this case in particular, I can't comment because I don't know what it's about.
Same. I am following 70-something people, all Balmung folks. Not seen any drama. I have one time seen people talk about RPC on tumblr and it was all reasonable feedback that one of the mods even responded to.Â
I guess I am just not following the people doing this? I don't have any examples to go off here. I don't think we can forcibly remove someone from RPC for doing that on tumblr but I can at least agree that tumblr is a part of the Balmung community too, not just RPC. We gotta take care of our community and that's all I'm gonna say.
This is in line with my own experiences on the Tumblz. What toxicity (lol) I have seen comes from someone who used to post on RPC ages ago - before ARR was even released, if I'm not mistaken - and who is generally understood by all to be a troll and a bully so nothing he says is taken seriously anyway.
I dunno. Generalizations suck, and while I appreciate the sentiment behind not naming names in the OP, when you choose instead to address your complaints to an unseen, ubiquitous Tumblr, it comes across as just that. .
The way I see it, the RPC and Tumblr are on pretty equal footing. The main difference between the two is the former has moderators, who can (and let's be honest, frequently do have to) close threads that devolve into various sorts of jerky and/or otherwise negative behavior. -shrug- Choose your poison, filtered or no.
