Now as I’m sure a lot of you have seen, many members are taking breaks from or quitting FC. There are two reasons:

Leaving due to toxicity or other issues.
Or
Leaving because they broke the rules and couldn’t handle getting told that.

I know that last one is harsh, but it’s true. There are a few members who have been told to stop treating the forum like a Discord server. Some have chosen to leave and can’t seem to handle the fact that forums have rules. Others, namely Chickalo, have made an effort to improve their behavior and that in turn improves the forum as a whole. I think that is a prime example of how the forum can get back on the right track.

I argue that the members who are leaving solely because of the drama caused by those members should consider staying. Of course if there are personal issues that obviously justifies leaving and I am not trying to tell anyone with issues outside of FC to leave, however I can’t see other’s PMs of course so if there is some sort of harassment then that obviously justifies leaving as well. However, if the only issue is the drama being caused, I believe that this will end, and the forum will get back on the right track. Instead of leaving, you could join the effort to reduce the drama. We need to make rules more clear, as I have a feeling part of the problem is that new members don’t read the and/or ignore them entirely. There also needs to be a rule or announcement that very clearly states that FC is NOT a Discord server, and should not be treated as such. Rules should be respected and followed, members should direct new members to the rules thread immediately. Other forums practice this so I see no reason why it shouldn’t be done here. If anyone has anything else they would like to see done, please say so. Have a good day or night.

hopefully this post can get the forums straight.

I really hope so.

No one really cares if you quit honestly. This forum has seen tons of people come and go. I don't really see the necessity of all these boring posts. Anyways, all this stuff with Vendayn vs the Children is kind of boring from what I've been looking at. It's probably best to just stop talking about this stuff.

I can really see quitting due to toxicity, and I have to say this community has gone down in quality over the past year. However I do not condone one being on this forum even though he/she is too immature to handle it.

It's not about people leaving randomly it's about people quitting due to the reasons I mentioned in my post. Specifically the people who have made threads about quitting/taking a break. About the Vendayn stuff, it's nice that there are members who don't care about whether or not children see pornography. I'm glad you think that it is boring and doesn't matter.
