I agree, I used to like the forum, no categories - no drama, no special ranks - no bragging.

I agree. There should now be a rule that if someone is DELIBERATELY causing drama, that they shall be banned, or given warning. All of this has happened. I came to oldcp in August or so, and it was great, because I loved how everyone loved each other and did not care about all this attention toward themselves. The Moderator and Administrator almost never changed, and everyone was at peace. No cancer, no Drama, no attention, no change, and no bullying. But now it is different, and we should try to stop this because Thisismyname is right. Everything has changed since then, and some of us want it the way it was in the beginning.
I hope this stops soon, and we won't need all this bullying rules because it won't happen.
Dream On!

This is absolutely true! We need to regain the real OldCP Community spirit: friendly, happy, fun atmosphere. But it will take time and effort.

Everything, once again, has been covered in this post. All that has been said is so very true and they are things I've thought to myself, but never built up the courage to say something about. Thank-you for the rant.
I would be included in, "some other people," for the record, as that ban was completely uncalled for. Especially because there was no proof. I thought the staff knew better than to ban without proof of rule breaking. I do believe the person who banned Freezer had good intentions, though. Regardless, it was still unfair. Mistakes were made, which is okay, but they needed to be corrected.
This being said, I believe if the users of OldCP (especially Damen and/or Cyberwolf) acknowledge the fact our community is going downhill and we need to take action, the OldCP I once adored can and will be restored.

Look. I don't mean to hurt oldcp in the post, but I've noticed a TON of things going on, and it's not the oldcp I know.
Where do I even start? There's just so much going on with the game thats just not right. I won't mention any names but how about I just start with the way they promote and demote people..
Ok, so first off, the moderator list is constantly changing and all that does is generate more drama. And drama is the last thing a community of young users need. Not only is the list always changing, people are being demoted for unfair reasons yet others are promoted because of FAVORITISM. Relatives or friends of the admins become mod. Its pathetic. And moderators are being demoted, such as Freezer, for misinterpretation and not only that, he got demoted without proof.
Ok, so thats pretty big stuff, right? That's not all. Let's talk about banning. Some users are banned without reason, whether it be they have allot of snowball lives or they said their opinion. Other users are constantly banned and unbanned, and all that does is create more trouble. Shouldn't a member that is banned stay banned. I don't care if it's about feelings. This is a game and some management over banning needs to be shown. The unbanning and banning just causes more DRAMA. Drama..
Yeah, you guessed it. That's not even the last of it. Lets talk about the introductions section. Yeah you've probably noticed this too. People will say they are leaving, yet they return to oldcp. Perhaps they crave the drama oldcp is putting out? I don't know. People need to make sure they are certain that they are leaving before making a huge commotion about it. And guess what, IT CAUSES MORE DRAMA. Are you noticing a trend?
Theres more, defiantly more. Users are liking attention. Its pathetic. Some users are making a big deal about suicide, others are thinking everything is bullying. And some have these silly continuous fights. And the sad thing is that these members who complain about the bullying have bullied themselves, yet they haven't been banned. Perhaps its favoritism? I don't know. It's just a mess, the community wants attention, but it causes so much trouble. People don't understand that suicide is no joke, and it HURTS THE COMMUNITY. But of course, drama arises from this.
Don't you see it? It's drama all around. The community is in chaos because of a couple select few members. It's not only their fault though, the admins won't ban these users and LEAVE THEM
BANNED.
When I joined oldcp in august, it was so welcoming and was well.. gold. The community was great. But as it grew, more users joined and so many problems arised. Now that once gold is no longer shiny, but has degraded and chipped. And each issue is one more crack in the gold.
I don't mean to offend oldcp, I just needed to get this out of my system.
People want mod so much, they'll go out of their way. Others are afraid to speak out due to what has happened in the past. Its all sad, and I hate to say it, but OldCP needs to work together, or else it'll become another forgotten game that died because of the community.
Lets change it guys.
For the better.
For the best.
