Dear Staff, Could You Please Reopen This Thread?

Staff I hope you will consider reopening the forum post about the lost GNG that you closed recently. I really don't understand why it was closed. Yes, the OP did (presumably naively) name a player he was going to contact about the lost GNG. And you correctly redacted the name, but was there a need to go further and close the post?

It is a lovely thread, filled with the generosity of glitchen helping to post a reward for return of the lost GNG and then even the offer from one gltichen to replace the GNG at no cost. At no time in the post was there any animosity expressed. Everyone acknowledged that whoever had picked up the accidentally dropped GNG had committed no offence. It was merely hoped that should the individual be found and informed of the situation they might choose to return the GNG in exchange for the reward.

I honestly can't think why the post was closed except possilby that it was not read carefully and staff mistakenly thought some malice or vitriol was being expressed in it. I would love to find out how the episode turned out. Was the (Unnamed) finder found, and did they return the box? If so, then the reward offerers need to know. And the rest of us want to know what finally happened.

Again this thread was basically about the generosity of many glitchen. To summarily close it seems to say just the opposite. Won't you relent??

  • The reason it was closed was made pretty clear by the staff post. Also, the reward offerers can be contacted privately by the person who dropped the object, it needs not be on the forums.

  • Pix, normally (I thought) when names were named but there was no huge hostility, they just said to not name names but kept the thread open.  (I could be misremembering though!)

  • I'm glad the thread was re-opened.  I am sick of video game companies taking the stance of "You fucked up and lost it, tough shit." when something like that happens.

    I still LOVE TS, but I was upset when that thread was closed since TS seems more like a family to me, instead of a faceless huge company like Blizzard that would take that stance.

    I understand that Kevbob probably closed it because he thought that it was the right thing to do at the time, or because someone told him to close it, but I'm glad that he reconsidered!

  • Yay!  Sorry about that, but I think a username is more characterally identifiable information than personally identifiable information. But thanks!

  • Thank you TS.

    I was beginning to wonder (as you know Eye Wonder) why it was closed and I couldn't respond to let the person know I was still willing to give the 20k upon return with no questions asked.
    It felt unfinished. 

    On another game I used to play, which I've completely given up for this game, the forum closing of topics was outrageous. I was beginning to feel that was going on here.  I was beginning to feel silenced like how I am treated on the other game in their forums. You have once again recharged my faith in Glitch. 

    I am allowed to shout from the roof tops "I am willing to give 20k currants upon return of the GNG" and that feels great. Although there is no need to since the owner now has a GNG but hey I can if I want to.

    Thank you TS. <3
