This bro of a bro in trade chat recently, helped me finally get the plat for Loki Deluxe and I sold him stuff I never thought I would sell (Ankyros Prime!). Would have been much simpler too if not for the bundle exlusivity of Hulta armour. But ya, forums are a dangerous land. And oh, you've not been around for the old, old reaction system? We used to have a legit downvote and upvote, among the accent ones, back in my day. Downvote didn't last long, Canadian rule just does not allow negativity, it seems. This is place has it's dark side and advertisement is doing it's darn best to hide it from the outside, I am honestly impressed how long they've managed! Well there are always nice people in whatever community you're in -thankfully- and to add my own anecdote, I remember doing a trade that I felt was a bit unfair (I think I gave someone 90 ducats for some limbo coordinates?) and I asked for a partial refund, which I miraculously got! And well -to be a bit egotistical- I post here on the forums, and I'm not terribly toxic and hostile about it, and I'm generally helpful. It seems it's more of a few bad apples (or maybe getting a bunch of regular apples to turn bad) that cause most of the problems here, and -to be a bit offensive- I suspect the old "voting" system of old (and it's improvised "Haha" version) was one system that was contributing more than it's fair share of generalized rudeness and dismissiveness to the warframe community so -offensively- I enjoy it's removal. It's just so rare for such systems to be use well and their unfortunate entanglement with "validation" render it a dangerous force. I guess it's a matter of people not being polite about using their casual powers. I'd guess you'd caulk that decision up with the marketing team really, -why create more hostility that you already want to?-. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minecraft actually had a redemption arc because Fortnite/Battle Royales took away a large chunk of people who were just there because it was the most popular thing at the time. Mostly kids and people who act like kids, but the point stands for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a breeding ground for toxicity and place where immature manchilds and little brats meet. Warframe Forum community is nothing compared to some PvP communities of other games like Fortnite, COD, Counter Strike, etc. Smaller communities, even in PvP tend to self-curate better. Having said that, I've been called toxic for saying 'GLHF' (good luck, have fun) at the start of Titanfall 2 games before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it gets things like lots of charity streams, modding and so forth, which something like Warframe can't do so easily. Example - Charity Hunger Games tournaments between youtubers.

SneakyErvin Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Seeing Fortnite on the list made me chuckle hard. It was a toxic pool of filth even before BR got introduced. And how does Fall Guys end up on the list when it is such a very recent release. Shouldnt the list consider the year as a whole or atleast most of it?

They aren't any different to any other game. I've played League since before Season 1, so over 10 years. I've also played hundreds of other games over a much longer period. People aren't nicer entirely based on the game they're playing, it's silly to suggest that. Pve games with fail conditions see just as much bad behavior, Warframe is just impossible to fail anything unless a bug is involved. Other than bugs, the only time I've seen missions fail are when I joined a pug sortie spy and 1 person messes up, and I have seen people rage over their time being wasted. I've also seen "toxic" behavior over simply being Limbo; had a case where someone asked me to not use 4 and was raging, despite the fact I used 0 abilities. I also consider people afking to be "toxic" behavior, as it's no different to afking in pvp games; in either case, time is being wasted or enemy behavior is messed up all due to selfishness. The forums also is a great display of how poorly people behave over simply disagreements, or differences in skill, despite skill not mattering due to there being non-existent fail conditions. Either way, anytime community vs community is mentioned, it's always the "my community is nice and all the others are toxic". These sorts of polls are honestly pretty meaningless.

Man, I had people argue with me here, writing entire essays about how wrong I am when I was actually right the entire time. I had people insult me and get away with it, while I got warnings from triggerhappy mods just because they didn't agree with me. (Granted, that was ages ago, but the point still stands) I had threads turn into flame wars when all I did was ask a perfectly normal question. I had people try to shove their opinion down my throat because thinking for myself is apparently bad. And you're telling me this place got nominated as the best community?

But the fact is, WF's community simply does not qualify for that award in my opinion. Granted, half the games on that list don't qualify, either.

wargthewarg Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I laughed when I saw that because this year has been a bit of a dumpster fire overall for Warframe no matter where you look. It's definitely not an award winning year for the community out of all the years I've been around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be a shame if the people in charge of making that nomination were to be made aware of that irradiating toxicity... EDIT: Turns out I'm incorrect. That aforementioned streamer was removed from the program. What person? what issues? lalalalala, they cant hear youuuuu. i thought the program as a whole got removed?

OniDax Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I'm definitely not voting for the Warframe community to be nominated best community, this community that bashes you anytime you suggest meaningful improvements to the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
