I mean it's not like SA of all places telling people not to join GSF is really going to have a measureable effect on recruitment to the alliance at this point. It's a bit insulting to those SA posters who are still in CFC and who are apparently serious about effecting change. But until clear and convincing evidence is shown that a real seachange has happened, it's for the best, I suppose. Edit: maybe don't recommend BRAVE so quickly from the feedback already either?

FruitNYogurtParfait posted:if they're serious about change banning mittani is a start but that aint happening so "hey be aware of things and maybe dont join" is good advice I hope the new CEO bans Mittani but the interim leadership doesn't seem interested, agreed. Their tenure is to be on the order of a week, so we'll see once the handoff is complete. I'm willing to take what they say at face value for now. I don't like everything that has been announced (mostly that he isn't banned), but the people involved - theAdj, xttz, Atrum, etc. seem to be on-side and respected well enough? Xenuria is banned, Innom is out, Mittens hasn't been on comms apparently in days. It's at least a minor improvement. Waiting for more evidence. I mean you sort of vaguely know me, DT. Not always the smartest guy on comms, and I really think people can do better. But yeah, if new leadership doesn't ban Mittani for the whole Xenuria thing for starters... it's a failure to face facts imho..

Have you tried alternative outlets for communicating your advice? The interim alliance CEO posted here in the last day as well as a few directors so I dunno. In the fireside it was pointed out that the "election" will be a poll among current Illum members, not a general vote. Were you expecting space democracy?

dragonshardz posted:I'm mildly disappointed, but hardly suprised. The interim leadership has been saying "the interim leadership are not reversing bans en masse" for the last week - so if you were surprised, you weren't paying attention in this thread. The statement was "if you did something that would have gotten you banned two (now three) weeks ago, you aren't getting unbanned just because you did it last week". As to Delta, hasn't alliance leadership been basically 'we are so done with you' from low-level back-and-forth stuff even back to the last war? They frankly seem pretty glad you left, no? That felt like the tone in the fireside, to me.

I feel it's more like "bye, Felicia" on their side. Delta was a persistent annoyance to Illum so when you stomped around and then slammed the door on the way out, they were frankly glad to see you go. There's individuals who would probably be welcomed back but en masse? Nahhhhhhhh. Bye, Felicia. I am unsubscribed but logged into comms for first time in ages for the last Fireside so whatever is on comms or forums or discord I don't see. Why do people care if they got banned anyhow.

The Shortest Path posted:Also loving lmao at "SA goons" as if there are any other kind. GSF is a bunch of pubbies. Tbqh quite a few of the 'goons' and 'goon culture' that formed the core of the alliance a decade+ ago are a big root of the cancer in current GSF. Hence the trickle of retvets from that era that popped up in this thread during the last Delve War all being shocked you couldn't be sexist, racist and so on. They usually flamed out here almost instantly. Given the cultural shift on SA, we're the ones that stopped being "goons" as they saw it. GSF has stayed closer to the "goon culture", haven't they? Isn't that the problem? SA goons grew up, Eve goons didn't. So saying GSF isn't "goons" is ignoring the fact they're absolutely goons, but it's like a racist grandpa who keeps using slurs from his youth. They're just eve goons. Of all the things to obsess over, gatekeeping 'goon' is pretty out there, given over a decade of the link, overdue for severing though it was.
