104725-thread-being-critical-of-morning-coffee-gone

== Content ==
			We were having a discussion about the "morning coffee" thread belonging to "off topic" but I can't find the thread anymore, where did it go?	
----
			Lassie pushed it down the well.	
----
			my guess would be that it was deleted.	
----
			Why was it deleted? The thread was fully compliant with the forum, nobody was being agressive and the tone was good?	
----
			If he didn't copy the morning coffee thread title type it would probably still be around in some capacity, though he's been told by the mods to knock it off several times as he's done this type of thread at least once or twice before.	
----
			
It could also be that threads talking about threads are not allowed, I though? Don't be surprised if this one gets deleted too. 
 
By the way, come have coffee with us! :D

			But to the point of stealth deleting a 4 page thread? It should come to an end of its own volition

			I agree, I'm sad it got deleted primarily because it had a few invitations in it that I hope people follow up with. I'd rather make friends than enemies. 	
----
			Sadly we can't complain about the actions of a forum mod. it's like the forum belongs to them, and their bosses don't really care	
----
			I am pretty certain like most jobs there are rules and guidelines	
----
			
Mods have said time and again that the coffee thread is staying. 
 
After that they seem to delete any other threads that pop up.

Honestly I would of loved to see it get moved to off topic.
----
			When this thread gets deleted I'm going to start a thread complaining about the deletion of the thread complaining about the coffee thread. And then when that one gets deleted, someone else needs to start a thread complaining about deletion of the thread complaining about the deletion of the thread complaining about the coffee thread. And then when that thread gets deleted...

Oh, the red phone. LOL I always wondered what that email address spelled
 
The thread was going somewhere, more people supporting the idea of having the morning coffee thread in off topic, and the OP's message was well written and thought out

Off topic needs more love.

			The coffee thread is there to encourage members of the community to interact with one another in a safe environment where they won't be trolled. I don't see the problem with it.

OP's message was well written and thought out? The guy jumped from Morning Coffee, to moderator avatars, to beta, to customer loyalty back to god knows what else. That guy would have gotten a D in Public Speaking. Probably held after for extra help. And.. again.. "more people". Not a democracy. Though, the more I think of it, the more I warm up to Off Topic. General Discussion is currently a cesspool of crying, self entitlement and children who should be focusing on degrees instead of video games with a few hints every once an awhile with actual constructive posts citing concern or enjoyment of the actual video game. If not for Coffee... I'm pretty sure I'd treat Wildstar forums like most other Video Game forums. "Caution: Antagonistic mouth breathers inside. Do not approach."

Last line is precisely why it should stay in GD.
Remind people there's some hope and forums are not all cesspool.

No issues at all.  Just do it in Off-Topic.  Reading about your upcoming surgical procedure on the front page of a game general forum is mind boggling.  Carbine could certainly use a touch of professionalism, especially with their pony avatars.
----
			
The morning coffee thread is just Wildstar's variant of a long-running tradition on MMO forums where forum regulars will make a thread to chat in. In most games these eventually garner mod attention/protection, so it's nothing unusual and it's not harmful.
 
Moving it to offtopic would solve nothing because then the forum regulars usually end up hijacking other threads. It's better this way.	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Because these aren't your forums.

And they don't belong to you either.  Though, you often think they do.
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Are you a member of Carbine staff? Are you a moderator?
No.
So thusly, no.
----
			Typical.  Something that massages the *cupcake* of the developers, although clearly breaking forum rules, allowed  to stay.  Something pointing it out, deleted.	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
How is this relevant?  Again, your personal life shouldn't be a thread I have to see in the general discussion of a game's forum.  That is exactly what Off-Topic is for.  From the outside looking in, you and your morning coffee crew seem to have this sense of entitlement in which you are to good to carry on your OFF-TOPIC conversation in the Off-Topic forum.  "We've been here from the beginning".  I don't care.

How noble of you.  Do you know what is more noble?  Doing something good, and not posting about it (reeks of attention whoring), especially to defend your completely selfish stance on this subject.
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
The moderators do. Therefore you have no argument.
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
You're cute. Can I bring you home? I'll call you Grumpy and keep you in a cage.

I for one am glad it's gone.  It appeared to be a self serving click thread.  
Good riddens

If life worked that way, we would be in a world of hurt.  Haha, get it?
----
			These forums move quite slowly anyway. Just what is it pushing off the frontpage that is more important? The same 10-15 threads sit on the frontpage pretty much all day. And would you really rather have forum regulars hijacking other threads with conversations? Because that is what happens when moderators delete/move "chat" threads. I have seen it so many times.	
----
			
Jack, half the threads in the front page belong in their respective sub-forum.
 
Aurin+Chua friendship thread -- Community
Game crashing, Cannot Download Patch -- Game Updates
CREDD -- Economy & Tradeskill, or New Player Help (if they can't figure out how to use it)
Rune rules -- Economy & Tradeskill
"HELP! Spellslinger rotatation" -- Classes & Combat > Spellslinger
Bugs -- Bug Report
Sellback option -- User Interface
 
Kindly go ahead and police those as well. :P	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Actually it's *clique if you wanna get critical :P
 
Okay going to bed now..sorry for trolling but it's just too easy with you lot!
Your panties are in a twist because people are promoting a community atmosphere. Get over it.

{| class="blockquote"
..in before this gets hit with a  tier 4 charged shot.. of " I TOLD YOU SO .."
 the name Jacktas seems to point to a certain mindset . 
 
whats so selfish about letting a thread thats been said .. on multiple occasions be the only off topic thread in GD?   it's not wholely off topic if we want to nitpick. its about WILDSTAR's community.
 
again.. its not  about the people posting on the thread , altho its grown a steady stream of regulars and growing.
 
no one HAS to open the thread to read about anything said in the topic. no one is being forced.
if YOU had an issue about someone talking about thier operation. then its  YOUR fault for opening the thread in the first place.
 
if i have an issue about someone Whining and crying about a nerf'd this ... or dead that. i just STOP reading and close the post  and read something else..
 
really.. try again a diffrent song.. cause this tune's  waaay over played
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
^ This.  It's also a topic that's been beat to death.  Kind of like Oceanic Servers, Free2Play and the programming prowess of Carbine's employees.  There is no debate to be had.  This isn't a democracy.  That said.. tea?
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Oh Jesus, get over yourself. Compare what's in the coffee thread to 99% of the threads on the first 10 pages and the Coffee participants would look like Einstein in comparison to the mindless cesspool drivel that is spewed on these forums.

I'm not a fan of when they Stealth delete anything. I'd prefer lock downs or moving, at least people can see the conversation that transpired.
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
The mindless cesspool drivel is related to the game correct?
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
As someone already pointed out directly to you, most of the threads in this forum are in the wrong forum. I'm not gonna have a long drawn out troll discussion about this because it's getting mindless. The thread has permission to stay. You can hold your breath and throw a tantrum if you want. 
 
Also @Pumba if you wanna sit on a throne of judgment and smell your own farts, my hat goes off to you. I'm typically not stuck on myself but to each his own.

			I love how threads always stay so civil and polite.....

I told you so?  In what way shape or form?  "on multiple occasions be the only off topic thread in GD?"  This is my problem.  I don't care about your thread.  I don't care about you, or that you fail to articulate in anyway other than starting a post calling me a Jack as.  For a Triple A title MMO, it is bad form to make an exception to forum rules and moderation to appease a small group of breakfast carebears.
----
			
I'm a little late to this one. But as others have said, the most likely reason it was deleted was because it was a thread about another thread. It's against the forum rules to make thread about threads.
 
As Xila said, I'm a little said about it. There were invites for others in that thread. :(	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
again. you're talkin' outta your Ass jack  .. the Coffee thread was preserved .. the THREAD..., not the posters...  it's  not for the sake of the regulars  posting on it. it was and still is for everyone to post on.
 
i'm asking , why ask about it again.. if the last thread complaining about it got deleted ? 
the mods can probably link to the exact first topic that explains why   the thread itself is allowed to return everyday and is locked everyday by midnight.
it's where the community of players got on to greet each other before the servers opened  for the test day. from waay before I was even in beta, this was how it got started.. and it persisted. .so they decided to make it a staple. 
 
it does not favor anyone.. because it's the thread.. that can be started by ANYONE  as long as it followed the same  flavor of the original thread.
and the " I told you so " . was indirectly pointed to this thread itself as it's just gona devolve like it already has to the usual.. bitter, antagonistic , cry-fest the majority of the GD forums ussually is.
 
but i guess some folks aren't gonna stop the grand ole' tradition of whining on a forum about ..stuff.. cause reasons..

{| class="blockquote"
Again, you do not need to justify the significance of the THREAD.  I don't care.  My issue is that the thread should exist in Off-Topic.  Will you all lose the ability to greet each other before you take on your day?  No.  You guys can have your thread, decorate it with gold stars and jerk each other off all you want.  In Off-Topic.  Where it belongs.

I read your posts and think one thing...you seem intelligent enough to figure this one out.

{| class="blockquote"
Just to ask.  Why does it matter?  Not defending or attacking either position.  I'm just wondering why it's enough to cause *waves hand*  All this?  Similar question.  Same reaction to people parked in handicap zone or fire lane?
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
I can key a car and move on.  However, your second question is irrelevant so I will address the first. 
 
An exception is being made to appease the few.  Meanwhile, misuse of moderation and blatant favoritism is rampant.  Someone should say something.  So I decided this was where I would hang my hat.

Realistically considering moving off too unfortunately. I'm not fond of Dominion only being alive during a small part of the day when I don't usually play, sad as it is. Giving it a month to see how things progress before making a final decision.

I suppose I did miss my mark by assuming, after you spoke for the group of individuals in question, that you were part of that crowd.  My apologies.  Also Tex, you're not nearly as witty or cool as you think you are.  More like a toolbox.  See, not just a tool, but an assortment of tools, gathered in a box.

Hey All - 
 
The last thread created had gone down all the wrong paths with insults flying left and right. So we sadly had to take it away. Apparently this thread has gone down the same road. Instead of doing the same thing, we'll just leave this one up to serve as a friendly reminder of what happens when good threads go wrong. In future posts, please keep on-topic and refrain from petty insults towards one another. 
 
Cheers,
Team WildStar
