Face Claim Discussion.

It's also pretty shady that Shauna's comment was deleted by staff only for someone affiliated to swoop in with the same claim.

Is that really what’s shady about all this?

It’s a face claim. You don’t need a claim for a face if you don’t have an account for that character.

None of this should be even remotely dramatic. It’s a list so people don’t double claim faces and so people can make banners more easily. Nobody has any real ‘claim’ over any of the models other than we all, as players, agree to respect each other. Can we take a step back and assess what exactly is being argued over? Is it really worth a bunch of hostility? I’d hazard the answer is no.

Daly was actually using Rakim for the last year. >.>

My argument is that the name Daly was not on the list, nor was there a claim filed for him. So I made a claim. Idk what the rest of the shit show is, but that's why I made the claim today. Because he wasn't on the list.

And yes, actually. Deleting the comment and stealing the claim is basically saying you guys are going to do whatever you want and we can fuck ourselves, just not so vulgar.

Guys, I've found the solution to the lack of activity in the community: create drama in the Face Claim.

And friendly reminder that Cia is not affiliated with Ab Antiquo staff - a roster that includes many people not in our "clique" that you all seem to have a hard-on for suddenly.

Thanks for the reminder, I actually don't know the entire staff because of lack of caring. But I know bullshit when I see it. And deleting a claim to let a friend steal it, is bullshit. I like Amaraplayer idea, Twinsies. Boom.

It's tedious but it's not hard to do. You CTRL+F to find the name of a character on the Face Claim and have another window up with the members list where you can search by alphabetical order. And since there could always be the potential of new players coming in, it would be more welcoming to them to have a completely updated list that adheres to the rule that Cia quoted.

The FC List is organized by IGN, not by display name.

Some characters that have accounts on the forum have IGNs that are different, so matching Display Names to the FC List wouldn't be entirely accurate or super easy to do even using that method. You would have to go through each unmatched display name's profile to look at the IGN since there's no search for IGN's specifically via the memberlist.

If it's so hard, I can do it for you guys? This is basic board maintenance and if you're updating it for new claims, why is it such a big deal to take a little extra time to remove those that don't have accounts at all?

[Vulture]

I feel like if we had a staffer solely for that sort of thing, it'd be less of a headache? And maybe we can split this discussion off into a separate thread?
