Stars

Note: This message was written in april.

Hello JPearson,

I'm contacting you about the Fandom Stars Channel on Discord and what we do in Stars.

After the recents events in #stars-product-feedback (about my question on `Template:AdminplusDisplay`) I want to make a feedback about Stars.

Firstly, I have the impression we do nothing; I'm asking myself "What we are usefull for Fandom?", "Can we have done for the others users?", "Why we are here?". So can we have more missions?

Secondly, #Fandom-stars is like #taverne (fr) (tavern in english but I don't know if a channel is present in English) for all off-topic (Why is the discussion on #Fandom-Stars and not in public?). Users talk about anything but for me, it's not the goal of the channel, which is encouraged, from a certain point of view, by some members of the Staff who initiate many conversations of this style and respond to this criticism that it is necessary to relax. In my point of view, this channel is for the discussion about Stars and a tavern channel in English will be a good thing for all users, like that, anyone can participate to the discussion, not only Stars members! For me, it is like Council (in Slack) where the off-topic is commonplace. When I asked if I can edit Template:AdminplusBadge in #stars-product-feedback channel, someone told me I was in the wrong channel, but only one hour after, some users talk about Deadpool 2 and they speaking Spanish. So if ask something about Fandom in this channel is an off-topic, what Deadpool or Spanish are? The off-topics are problem and we need to focus us on Fandom Stars and \*\*only\*\* on that (tasks, ideas, what we do in relation of Stars...). I can heard I asked my question in the wrong channel, but be agressive in the reponse and talk about Deadpool 2 one hour after is ironic! I see two options : no off-topic \*\*at all\*\* or a channel for the off-topic like that, users like me who don't want the off-topic can mute the channel and read #fandom-Stars and #stars-product-feedback to know informations in link of Stars. Is it possible?

Thirdly, what is the utility of `w:c:fandom-stars`? As all users can read it, why have we need to create content on it and not on `w:`. In french, the users blog are on `w:fr` and it works.

Fourthly, The programm is just for english users? Can we use this programm for the international users (I'm french, so can I use the programm for help other French users?)

Fively, I see Stars as an easy way to discute with Staff (for example, in the french category, we can't change with the staff so we can become Star to talk with them). By the way, even if I'm better than other users (those who are not stars), I must not be arrogant. So although we are Stars, we have no right to feel superior or to be superior. All users need to be equals by the same right (talk without difficult with Staff, talk (off-topics or not) with others users).

Sixthly, As the potential of Stars seems to me not really used, why it's not used for the news features, news proposals, ideas of the devs... ? Even try them...

Seventhly, Finaly, what is the utility of the roles? We can't use them.

Hope my opinion will grow up Stars!

This message is not to talk between Stars members and see if I'm alone to think that or not, thanks to no answer to debate.
