I think I'm out as well, fellas.
Over the past few months, I've tried to keep a positive outlook on MFGG. After all, it's a site that I've visited and loved since I was little, basically. But we've reached the point where I think I've lost hope. It's in a sorry state and, frankly, I feel like I'm out of options for fixing it.
The atmosphere on MFGG lately has been dreadful, in my humble opinion. It's been hostile, it's been unwelcoming and it, above all else, hasn't been fun. Many users on the site have agreed with this, even if they haven't bothered to say it. It's a black cloud that's been over the site for months.
I'm going to be straight up honest here and say that I definitely blame it on a few specific members. Call it bias if you will (lord knows, you have before), but I think there are some members on this site that seem to make it their entire purpose to make there presence here as unpleasant, condescending and downright mean as possible. I will fully admit, there are some users on this site I really just wanted to be done with. Did that make me overeager to take action in some instances? Perhaps. But honestly, I think members that could get such a reaction out of not just me, but practically all of the staff deserved at least some thought. Whenever we tried to take action, we were basically crucified. It wasn't always to the letter of the rules, sure, but there's no respectable way to just say "you're extremely unpleasant to be around and numerous people have said so" and just have that be that.
I could drop names, but what's really the point? I think it's basically all out there in the open anyway. If not, it's incredibly transparent. If you even have to try and figure out if it's you, it probably isn't you. I realize some of you probably hate my guts for saying all of that, but some of you did anyway.
I've just stopped having fun and being happy contributing to this site. Being staff has become way too stressful for a job that pays nothing. I have quite literally been brought to tears through some of it. Call me a sissy if you want; I really don't care at this point.
I'm leaving MFGG. Some of you will be elated, I'm sure. Either way, I don't have it in me to do this anymore. Maybe one day, I'll be back. I don't know. I'll still be around elsewhere if you know where to find me. Sayonara, MFGG.
