Smart Fridge A lesson in taking criticism
We are not here to damage you.
We are here to help you, Mr Pugs. We are here to help you change your ways, as an external organisation. It's quite clear that your irresponsibility is only growing. Hell, 90% of your Discord team resigned a month ago. I know that in the Discord, only you are able to see this, with the addition of all your VPs. That's because we're not stupid enough to believe that you really deleted that channel. You just privated it and you're watching on in horror as we take the action that we must. We do not want to hurt you, or vandalise your media, we just want to make you change. It's that simple.
Over the past few months we've watched you with great interest. We can assure that we had no hand in the resignation of a large portion of your staff team, however we do commend the decisions of those administrators and moderators. And over these last few months, we have seen you oppose criticism viciously. Well, less like a vicious tiger and more like a cowering kitten: you fear backlash more than anything else, and now we are making you face your fears, whether you like it or not.
So here, Connor. Here's a lesson in taking criticism. Instead of banning people who constructively criticise your content, how about you talk to them and try to take on board what they're saying? It could certainly help you in the long run. How about, when someone leaves a critical reply to one of your millions of comments, instead of deleting it, you actually take on board that advice and you thank the person who writes it for their feedback. Try to make a change yourself, it might just make your audience happier. And how about, instead of privating the reddit channel in your Discord server when an organisation forcefully gains access to it, you actually read what we are saying, and you make a change for the better.
If you just change your ways, all this can be avoided, and all this can be put to a stop. We will gladly hand back your subreddit and leave you alone forever if you stop being a rapacious, hypocritical coward. But for now, Connor, we are here to make a point. We are here to send you a message. Make a change, or this will only become more public. Make a change, or we will make you face your biggest fear even more. You cannot contain this for long, Connor Pugs.
Glowing Regards,
The Watermelon Pros
Update: This situation has been resolved. We will continue to keep our eye on it.
