Hi, welcome to the centalized /warp pixel thread. Below is the first post I made on this, but feel free to leave anything else you want to discuss at the bottom. Thanks!
Hi! I’m going to prefix this post with the fact that it was made while angry, so if i made any bad decisions while making it I’m sorry.
I’m not going to beat around the bush, I am genuinely angry about how /warp pixel is run. I have contributed a lot to the project, just as I had before in the last map update. I was one of the reasons 2 new rooms were w/e’d into existence in the first place. I try to make it a nice place, with helpful messages to people new to /warp pixel and a map system so people can see their floorbuilds. I try to make my builds as closeknit as i can to save space. My work, if put all together, would take up 3 or more whole walls. This section was just to relate to you how much effort I have put in to the project.
I am losing the will to put in that much effort.
Recently, the 3rd quadrant has become pretty full, and about the same time my preference has been for larger builds. However, I bode my time as the Q4 quadrant was labeled closed. Even as we speak, people are filling in Q3 with more pixel art, making it nigh impossible to build any more things, let alone large projects. Upon further inspection, I realized that someone was building in Q4. So, I decided to build there as well. After receiving a shitstorm from a (for now) unnamed op, I was told never to build there again, the sections security was tightened, and my helpful signs and map were deleted.
I am not happy. This is my legacy on this server and it is being messed with. I’m not asking for the world, I’m just asking for the ability to take care of the place I basically maintain.
Hi again! I’m turning this into a centralized thread, and adding a couple points. There’s a couple suggestions that have gone up on the “suggestions board” that someone set up, and a couple concerns I’d like to address.
Part A: Suggestions
Alot of people have suggested more room(s), such as SammyTheKat, jmvvana, and I, and I thought it would be a good idea to make a room that is the same size as all four rooms put together, however dumb it may be as an idea.
Someone also (left no name) suggested we move all the pokemon related builds to one room. This would open up builds for others.
Part B: Request
I’ve noticed some builds that are in less than acceptable shape, not in the way that they aren’t good enough, but that they are unfinished. They take up space and they haven’t been finished in at least a couple months. Some examples are the giant Charizard X & the beginning of what I assume to be the mockingjay symbol in the first room, but all you can see is a yellow arrow. If it’s okay I’d like to post a warning for a defined period of time & afterwards remove the builds.
I’m multi posting so this bumps, but because no one has responded I will take matters into my own hands. The clear day for broken & unfinished pixels is October 1st. If you have any issues please let me know. Thanks!
Cancer, if you see me online grab my attention and I can do it for you. I unofficially removed a good amount of logless/unfinished/flat out garbage ones not too long ago.
I get you have ideas and are concerned but let me carefully break this down to you:
[ul][li]You have ZERO authority in deciding how Pixel is run. You can’t just decide that “October 1st” is a determining date for people to finish their stuff. You aren’t even staff and didn’t even consult us to make sure it was okay with us that new things are enforced. If we did half what you’re trying to pull right now with BigCity or any other creative city you’d be creating commotion and disturbing people’s original builds without their acknowledgement at all.[/li][/ul]
[ul][li]We can’t just “move” all the pokemon related pixels into one place. It’s too time consuming and it’s not fair to the original creators to have their stuff moved.[/li][/ul]
[ul][li]If nobody’s replying to your posts right away keep in mind that not every staff member will be online to respond right away to your suggestions / concerns. A lot of us do have work and school going on right now so do not push down the walls to force a reply by multiposting because that makes us more annoyed to give you a thought out reply to your original post. Double-posting is actually against forum rules in cases like this so do not do it again otherwise there will be consequences. [/li][/ul]
[ul][li]Lastly do not take full credit for how Pixel is run. if it wasn’t for ME you wouldn’t have the original rooms in the first place since I was the one that spent a considerably long time using w/e multiple times to clear space and make it for everyone to enjoy. Rather than complaining about how it’s run perhaps you should take it for what it is and be patient for specific instruction as to when you can use the new quadrant. You’re also not completely restricted to /warp Pixel. If you are considering to do a large-scale pixel the best thing I would recommend is to do it elsewhere because if you do it inside the /warp pixel’s walls you’re essentially taking away space for other people to make contributions. [/li][/ul]
I personally want more space so I can build big pixel art, if not I could build it somewhere else. But if I’m going to make pixel art I want it to be at /warp pixel. Also I hope nobody minds that I made a hall of contributors for people to put their names in. I didn’t ask anyone about it but I doubt anyone would object to it.
Sorry, I did not mean to assert authority, I just kind of see it as my pet project and I hadn’t got a response in ~2 days, was hoping I could snag attention. Rest assured, all of your rules will be observed. Thanks!
