#487620 My Problem with Staff

Posted by H on 29 May 2024 - 07:17 PM

Lets get right into it.

 

My Problem with Alora Staff - Part 1

Here's how staff used to respond when people questioned why GIMs were buying/selling bank on Forums

 

4feb7a784eb139c85a86426f54a5eb0c.png

 

 

 

 

Here's how staff respond when I suggest fixing it on Forums

53a828c398b3334e4f8b4d0b6612dc7c.png

 

To add context to these two infractions:

Infraction 1 - You received a warning in a thread about selling GIM items, where your reply had nothing to do with buying/selling/negotiating with the author. The rule you broke was listed in your warning as seen in the image.

 

Infraction 2 - You received a warning in your recent GIM suggestion thread, where one of your replies was flame baiting To Gain for some weird reason and relating it to that nex penguin situation that happened a while back.

 

I'm not sure how you're trying to connect these two warnings together to be honest, I'm confused.

 

 

 

They penalize me for baiting and flaming, when in reality, they're the one's doing it.

91966722a2a6895c448007592035e2af.png

 

Here's an example of global moderator Logan liking the flame/bait, instead of actually doing his job and removing it.  The comments have nothing to do with the game suggestion regarding buying/selling ironman banks.  I reported the comments days ago and nothing was done.  They all ignored it until I left this comment, which promptly got deleted.  

image0.jpg?ex=6658acd5&is=66575b55&hm=80

 

I had to get a warning -> show proof of staff bias -> get my proof deleted -> just to get the flame bait/hate directed towards me removed.

 

I'll come out and say this was not handled well at all. We're discussing it/discussed it and I hope it doesn't happen again. Not much to add here. Apologies from the staff team.

 

 

 

On my other posts, you have people deliberately copy and pasting "no support" comments and none of them get removed even when I report them

288d0bf3d0f0e65769283b8511a4a8c3.png

9634b56860310bec202ba06baccd8bc7.pnga2759f95fe3f8b1b3a991c921ba02234.png

Why?  - They're ex-staff or friends of Logan/Not Shadow - Or maybe they just share Logan/Not Shadow's point of view - who knows?  - either way, someone isn't doing their moderating job very well

 

How is it that staff will remove off-topic comments on a Trading GIM bank post, but not hate/flame bait comments on a Trading GIM bank suggestion? 

 

I don't see the issue here. Sure, they're copy pasting a response, but it doesn't break any rules. We're not going to start punishing people because their replies are the same/similar(you might see a lot of those in introduction threads).

 

To conclude, here's a little insight.

 

Between the time you got post restricted and until a few days ago, about a year give or take, we probably punished a handful of players on forums for stuff such as spamming. 

In the past few days, literally every report has come from your threads.

Perhaps some self reflection is due. Every time there's some "drama"(if that's what you want to call it) you're always at the centre of it. First with that realism suggestion thread, then that nex penguin drama, and now this. 

 

I also find it ironic how you mentioned that "someone isn't doing their moderating job very well" in regards to removing those copy pasted replies, when you were spamming bug reports in the suggestion section literal days ago and told us to fuck off when we asked you to post them in the bug report section.

 

Once again, sorry for not removing those flame bait replies sooner. We'll jump to action much quicker next time.

 

I find it cringe that it's 2AM and I'm writing essays. Everyone just needs to grow up tbh.

#485759 Clan Friends List Changes

Posted by gim crohn on 29 April 2024 - 08:30 AM

What is your suggestion?:

increase friends list cap or find a solution where closed CCs can have more than 400 people on friends list.

Is this in OSRS?

yes.

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

idk

How would this benefit Alora?:

Bigger clans, Better Pizza, Papa Johns. 

 

 

I have risen from my alora slumber to once again, complain. As the leader of the most successful clan in Alora currently we constantly struggle with the friends list cap. If we allow our members to have 2-3 alts in cc we only need 120-150 active players to max out the friends list where nobody else can then join. As a bonus if we attempt to add new people with this cap it randomly deletes members from the CC causing chaos. 

 

We have over 250 active members but many don't even play alora because they feel that casually playing alora once in a while would cause our more active members to not have a slot in the CC friends list so many don't log in at all anymore so the regulars and higher-ups don't get burdened by the casuals.

 

This makes no sense, it creates unnecessary work for clan organizers taking away time that could be used for planning and executing events or anything else that would make alora more enjoyable. 

 

Please increase this friends list cap so our members can have alts in the cc, our higher-ups don't have to have daily chores to remove/add accounts cuz our hcim keep dying.

Support, for both your suggestion and for you to stop crying.




#484131 Ghommal's lucky penny

Posted by Yautja on 14 April 2024 - 05:55 AM

What is your suggestion?: Buffing the lucky penny by adding 5% chance to save charges for each donor rank starting from uber and having it work with the blood fury, if 5% would be too overpowered I think 2.5% per rank would be great aswell.

Is this in OSRS?: No

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: No

How would this benefit Alora?: Giving another big reason to get rank and do combat achievements

#477897 collection log highscores

Posted by Mtam on 24 January 2024 - 10:55 PM

What is your suggestion?:
do we plan on getting the collection log highscores? i see the infrastructure there but isnt currently optional and making this a higher development priority
 
 
Is this in OSRS?:
technically no, but is offered as a service through through a fan-made site called collectionlog.net
 
 
 
 
How would this benefit Alora?:
 
 
- stimulates/creates a competitive environment aka creating purpose to play properly and sink heavy hours into alora.
 
- majority of it is rng related, it incentivises climbing up the alora donation ranks.(this line makes dans pants levitate)
 
- gives players a sense of overall belonging amongst other dedicated players/more incentivised reasons to become a completionist
 
- creates reason to get out of ones comfort zone and participate in content they would of never normally participated in hopes of climbing ranks
 
- stimulates more of the ecosystem in specific niche uses of items that are technically best in slot at single location/combats the stagnation of normal mode ecosystems stagnation with most of the community being ironman orientated so it atleast helps alleviate the pressures of stagnation resulting in inflated prices/nothing for sale which deters new players from starting up (this might be my personal biased opinion due to being on oce timezone)
 
- all account game modes benefit



#477516 Scythe Vs Fang

Posted by Solo Variant on 19 January 2024 - 09:39 AM

What is your suggestion?:

Add the nerf to fang and buff to scythe like OS recently had WITH OR BEFORE DT2

 

Is this in OSRS?:

Yes

 

How would this benefit Alora?:

Would make players play as intended, without having to relearn it later after the nerf/buff




#476993 Collection logs completed

Posted by Tauri on 11 January 2024 - 03:59 PM

Hello Alorians!

 

I've been wondering for a while now, that how many collection log slots do people have completed?

 

Since there is no collection log hiscores like in OSRS has a 3rd party one (@Omicron pretty please :( ), I would love for y'all to post the screenshot of your amount of collection logs completed, preferrably entire client screen shown, and I will update this post with some sort of a leaderboard.

 

I will begin with mine in spoilers:
