Hello !
@viva let me sum up what I understand
From your opinion SOG is doing good with the app and the product has a good potential. You really love the project and you want it to be successful. But you are worried on some point that you think is important are not taken care enough.
1. Game wise it's about card blockchainization and some more content.
2. Communication wise social media and communication channels are not used enough.
3. The moderation is not good because it's pissing of users.
Do I understand right ?
Before of I have on my side personal request to the community. To everyone here team and community.
Please don't do personal and public attacks on people and on the individuals of SOG team their partners or other members. It's nothing wrong pointing out weaknesses or doing recommendation. Public personal attack first hurt people and is counterproductive. It's the same thing in a company if the boss or anyone make big loud reprimands on an individual the person will not perform better.
We are talking about individuals that are fully engaged and working hard to make innovative things, since blockchain is startup environment people have to du much more than working in a big company doing only one single task.
I can guaranty that the pressure on my team shoulder is high, working on things that are un marked path coming with a lot of obstacles in an unstable blockchain environment. Breaking new boundaries every day. Trust me its a hard path. My role is to keep them motivated. Seeing them rewarded with the sadness of being hurt when opening communication channel makes my work lot harder.
My ideal vision of true ownership and shared ownership of SOG is we are all in the same team. We are here to help and to grow together and not attack each other. I want a community where everyone brings his stone to the monument we are building together. There are a lot of people contributing and I love that it make me feel we are on the right direction. But when the word are targeted toward my team or community it make me feel hurt. Also it's not productive and doens't help SOG.
So for everyone when you post messages and discuss please think are you trying to build grow, or destroy are you hurting anyone ?. If you are in the destroying mood please come back and think how you can help.
If you feel hurt because you feel someone is attacking you then please don't escalate don't insult or judge. Report misbehaviours.
That's my first moderation rule. Starting from now we are going to be more strict. Any insult or attack on an individual will be sanctioned.
So let's address point 3 about moderation.
Gameplay wise Blockchainization is an important topic if we implement it right now it might create an imbalance since the game will be reset after the soft people who didn't maxed out the card might be an issue. Specially if he invested money the upgrade the cards. But open to discussion
that brings me to the forum.
We are working on reorganising the forum, we heard the comments and we are working on it we are moving to forum.everdreamsoft.com it's not imediate because there are work on moving the forum. Devs are working on bugs and lot of stuff so please allow a week and a half to be deployed.
Social mediaThank you for listing it up. As you know EDS is a small team and each social media is time consuming. We decided to focus on twitter because it has shown to be very effective better performing than facebook. With limited resources we try to focus the time on the things that brings the most results (even with big teams its the same).
Now Tumblr: the question is, Is SoG Tumblr an official blog? Because I do not see any link from the official website
https://spellsofgenesis.com/ to
http://spellsofgenesis.tumblr.com/. Anyway let's suppose it is (what a mess), the official blog IS the center of investor and communiuty official communication. So all the interesting news have to be posted there.
You may have noticed that the news feed from the website is coming from Tumblr. Does it worth to bounce back people to Tumblr from the website if the news are the same ? Debatable but it's a possibility.
Okay to summaries all we are working on news and community followups we heard the concern about community and communication. We are working on it. We are reviewing and reorganizing the communication channel. When the forum is right we will discuss and poll about the communication channels and see where it's more interesting to invest time.
And if someone think he can help, we will be more than happy to discuss
