No one is disputing that people care about the server or that frustrations exist due to the countless hours dedicated. Where the line was crossed wasn’t having criticism, but how and where it was expressed in the moment, being in General chat. As I mentioned previously, the expectation has always been that feedback goes through the correct channels designed for it, so it can actually lead somewhere productive, rather than spilling into public chat and escalating.
Nobody is trying to create a facade that everything is perfect. We as a server do want improvement, but we just need criticism delivered in a way that allows it to be heard and acted on, not drowned out by chaos.
