im confused on something... "While we do know at least two people in Wind hasn't liked OOF support, having it suggested there's more breeds a feeling that Wind as a whole doesn't like the OOF support they've received. While that's probably not the case at all, it's hard to get that thought out of people's mind."
where did this even come from? being frustrated over a large number of dragons of different lanes is one thing but not wanting the support is another. If they didnt like the oof support, wouldnt they have stayed off accepting it? one we know of is the host of main thread for it, so clearly thats not the case. Or am i blind and missing something here?
AYRT Sorry bad wording on my part! It's very early in the morning here so let me try to explain what I meant. I think I meant to say before that that it came across like Wind hadn't appreciated the OOF support by this not that it hadn't actually been unappreciated. But in other notes, sometimes people stay accepting because they think of it as a chore they HAVE to do in order to support their flight instead of it being something they actually enjoy and just find overwhelming time to time. This is a problem in all flights and is hard to deter and probably hard to stop people doing. (some people get stressed into doing things they don't enjoy because they feel obliged to do it even when everyone else tells them they don't have to do it if they don't want to)
I hope that clears what I mean but if not feel to inquire more. My wording of things tends to be my downfall.
That's the difference between reason and paranoia now. Paranoia is by definition unwarranted suspicion.
While OP may actually love OOF support, they were not supported as well or as in the way they would have wanted. And the nerve gets in the way of their thinking. Perhaps they start suspecting why people are making things hard for them. With a lack of understanding for the senders.
Senders, having realized their help was not as helpful or as well appreciated as they would have hoped, perhaps will start suspecting the receiver has actually hated everything they've done so far. With perhaps a lack of understanding for the receiver.
And in fact they may actually want to understand each other but instinctively defensive feelings are telling them to fear and believe otherwise. I use perhaps, because we'll never know what people are thinking in their minds and that's how paranoia gets around.
Wind has given off plenty of vibes that they’re not so enthusiastic about oof support this week. It was listed earlier but in addition to the two people we know for sure who were saying “don’t send me your dragons,” Wind has had some other feelings about people sending large quantities of dragons. They lowered hatchling payouts because people were sending too many dragons, and they rejected the offer of more dragons in exchange for a missed daily badges. And you could argue that it’s hncontested conquest so why should they take in so many levels, and I will argue back because it builds goodwill (or at least doesn’t destroy it) for people to remember when they really DO need the oof support.
Your logic is very flawed. Just because they’re doing something that doesn’t mean they like it. I pick up my dog’s poop on our walks because it’s courteous and expected of me, not because I want to handle shit. OOF support was very clearly a chore or a nuisance for some people this week.
I use to work with the named one, and from personal experience, they really cared about oof support but there has been so much small things all week for them that it seems to have been getting to them. limits were reached this week, so I am wondering if they will do the coming MistJam or step down for this. We won't know till it happens I guess.
when the times come, I feel like wind will pick up and learn heavy on what has happened this week Or at least I hope so...for their sake I hope they do.
