Update on SEAF

Before I start, I request that don’t take down this thread since this thread. Read thoroughly, I’m not calling out, I’m just sharing my experiences and it’s an open discussion.
But eh, for those who reply to this thread, behave too.

I really heard that there’s a lot of drama revolving community and moderators. I’m aware of this situation, but I don’t think I will try to get involved and try to sort things out. Why? For the past few months, I am really—really burnt out from moderating in Pixel Worlds, both Forum and In-game, plus Discord which is more difficult IMO. I’m thinking whether not I should step down because I know maybe I can be back to my old moderator guy self. Why burnt out? Let’s say, I’m really fed up dealing stupid craps in the game over and over. Dealing with something that moderators cannot even deal with. Think about it, you must deal with something that you can’t deal with because of lack of power or authority. Lack of attention and appreciation does bum me out from all my moderating years.

The thing is, yes, I still play Pixel Worlds, exploring and visiting worlds, talking to people. But my play hours on Pixel Worlds have drastically decreased. If you ask, the games I play now are Genshin Impact, VALORANT, Grand Theft Auto Online, and some other mini multiplayer games that I enjoy playing with IRL (and online) friends. Other than games, I have also been working and doing college.

Regarding the community-moderator issue right now…. I completely have no idea how to help resolve it. I hate to say, but if the admins aren’t doing anything, what can a puny SEAF do anyways? I’ve been discussing with another moderator about what should we do in the future. Is quitting the best choice?
I hope you guys understand why I chose not to be active recently. It’s tiring and I got burnt out.
For now, I decide to stay and just wait… but again, sorry for being really inactive.

Is there anything you people want to ask about me, or regarding something else idk (that doesn’t involve drama lot)? Ask here

final words, happy(?) 5 years of moderation for me. Who knows It might be my last year.
2017 - 2022

IG: @genseaf → I might post regarding some stuff, not sure tho. I’ve been avoiding Pixel Worlds or anything in my main Instagram account. It’s annoying sometimes.
Discord: GENSEAF#1544 → only friends can send msgs to me. I’m sorry but, the same issue.

More about IRL: I doing quite ok. It’s been 2 years since one of my parents died, and I’ve been adapting to it quite well. Might struggle a bit in my economy, but I can handle it… I think. But I also need to deal with IRL drama, that I cannot speak about it here and it’s been bothering me really a lot for the past 18 months. My college is ok, my relationship is ok, my relationship with friends… Mmmmm it’s ok also.

More stuff I can say about the pixel worlds game now:

It’s sad that the game’s current condition isn’t at best. Switching admins team, the drama, and everything else. None of that stuff can help me return to my old-mod-guy self. I wish there was better communication, that’s all. From Community-Mods-Admins. Without proper communication, there’s no way anything can be resolved. Maybe the admins should look more into the community side. I’d say it’s a bit pretty toxic right now.

and some other stuff: I don’t like the new forums. I feel like I struggling a bit with discourse forum design. XenForo was easier for me to monitor. Tho, some features can be cooler.

but-but-but… bruh where’s signatures??

Thank you:

I also want to thank all of the people who are concerned about me. Even called me I’m depressed or something. I’m not depressed. But sometimes just upset overall because multiple kinds of stuff happen during this pandemic. Including my family issue. So I might be sensitive over some stuff, that’s also why I chose to pause my moderating abit from time to time. I can’t let my emotion get over my moderating decision.

Good luck with your future and everything that’s going on in your life

Glad to hear you’re doing okay, SEAF. Feel free to come hangout anytime, or DM me. We miss ya!

Sounds like yes to me, I think you need to focus on your future now.

i wouldn’t say quitting is a good choice but focusing on ur future is important than the game so yea…

It’s depressing to see more and more people not feeling like continuing the game, starting from developers, to regular players and now moderators. At the moment the game really has no future other than few regular players doing anything to increase their wealth while waiting for updates featuring already existing items, just in a different color. I really hope that there’ll be some unexpected twist to make everything better and I do understand that some really can’t keep going due to real problems, and I wish them the best.
Take good care of yourself, SEAF!

Thanks for your concern. After a while, I thought to myself, If I quit, idw to quit wheres theres a problem going on. It makez me feel as a quitter. If i quit now. Therell be a lot of unpleasant thougts abt me.

– sry broken english. Its 1am

I think it’s always the best option to think of yourself before anything, especially when it comes to this kinda of situation.

If you think moderating is somehow effecting your well being, then maybe quitting would be for the best, or atleast taking a break for sometime.

But the choice is yours at the end of the day.

Quitting shouldn’t be his choice. Taking a break should be. He could take a break and still comeback with his role if he feels like it.

what drama are you talking about? I haven’t been here for a while just confused lol.

Essentially, a veteran user was upset about their ban from the Pixel Worlds Discord server, so they began to spread lies and personal attacks against people as well as encouraged others to do the same. They encouraged people to blindly hate the moderation and break rules as form of “protest”. I’m being vague since we’re not supposed to discuss specifics of these sorts of things publicly, but that’s the gist of it.

Im not part of this.
