What’s the goddamn POINT in foraging if all you do is collect random fish and wood but have Zero use for them? At least make the little animals pets or something and allow them to link to a Grem idk

At this point it's just like we are scratching a lotto ticket, but instead of throwing it away when we lose we are just keeping it for some fucking reason.

It feels like such a waste...

[grem2-gripes]

I went ahead and made screenshots of the news post and few noteworthy pages of Jesi-Jess' CS in case it's deleted before it can get archived. https: // imgur.com / gallery / qjGNxBX

Makes sense tho, A lot of the more kemonomimi type cs tend to either flourish or die.

Only tangetially related to Grems, but one of the Grem mods, Jesi-jess, just posted last night that they're shutting down their own CS. Good riddance. And I hope anyone that had bought a MYO for IRL currency in recent months gets refunded.

Oh holy shit, wait.

Jesi-jess had/has a CS?!

THROW ME SOME LINKS

[grem2-gripes]

Still hoping Densy one day gets hit with a 20.5K bill for, like, utilities or something. Karma hasn't hit her hard enough. You can tell because her behavior is NOT the behavior of someone remorseful about being a dumbass. She hasn't felt it yet.

[grem2-gripes]

Wow, that's a nice Cypherus that's being raffled off. And way off season, too. D. E. S. P. E. R. A. T. E. I wonder why it's being raffled off on the masterlist account? But you can tell it's a design by a popular artist because of the number of people entering. Also, it doesn't look like it was drawn by someone who's feeling dead inside. 😬

[grem2-gripes]

i love how people like clash and other populars can get just about anything redesigned in one attempt (changing patterns and traits often at the same time) but people who arent lodged up mamas asshole have to wait months to redesign even if the two grem designs are extremely similar. its rough being a grem peasant! but at least i dont have the taste of mod cock on my tongue 24/7

Favoritism is one hell of a drug.

[grem2-gripes]

I know we're all shitting on Digi (deserved) at the moment, but I want to rant about the current shitstorm that is the Grem redesign process. It is BONKERS to me that markings, colours and traits all have to go through separate, individual redesign passes with a month cool-down between each one. I feel like that just overloads the redesign queue with tiny changes that could be done all in one go??

Literally every other species I'm in just does all three of those things in one go, with the requirement (generally) being that it has to still look similar to the original design. Sooooo why are Grems apparently so complicated that they can't do that?

The amount of favoritism that goes with the redesign process is nuts as well.

Are you digi or Clash? Okay do whatever you want! If you're anyone else? No sorry here is a mountain of things you need to change.

This shit goes down to changing a PIXEL on the ear or thigh.

Just say you hate some of the community members and get it over with already, christ...

[csvent-2]

Digi up to bullshit again. This issue was reported to the grem mods who basically did nothing about it, but the community deserves to know what's going on: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eJ6mZ6cDtlWJ2ibRTESeFZXNQXJqvYMgCg6gPGN22IE/edit?usp=sharing

[grem2-gripes]

:/

[grem2-gripes]

LMAO have you seen the document posted to csvent-2 about digimitsu? Really hope it gets solid ground and the grem team finally have to actually DO something about digi jeez

botting (which despite proof, grem team did NOTHING about lmao), illegal trading (and probably reselling too lets be real), general hogging of the one interesting thing left in grems, please eat your cake and get fucked digi

lemme snag the doc and throw it up here as well.

Should be a fun read.

[grem2-gripes]

so i guess no one's gonna talk about how digi tried to evade the cypherus cap with the help of cyphercat and arvata? can't believe they all haven't been blacklisted. will post proof when I can coherently compile the evidence!!

Why would they blacklist their biggest cash cow?

[grem2-gripes]

Densy can't answer to the ethics of GremCorps lore because there are consequences to any answer because there's a degree of (hopefully ethical) breeding iirc, which leads into talks of eugenics (which are only relevant, imo, because Grems are sentient and highly aware). She already had to tweak the home page ages ago because people started pointing out the eugenics angle and I remember early on Grems had ear tags and were essentially intelligent pets...Just poorly thought out lore overall.

Oh oof, that's not a good look....

[grem2-gripes]

Imagine having so little lore for your almost decade-old species that you can't even answer "Does this universe's primary corporation responsible for the existence of the species have an ethics committee?" without leaving it to sit unanswered for months. It's a yes or no. Judging how the server is run, though, I think Densy is afraid of officially confirming ethics as part of the canon.

Just say gremcorps is evil and get on with it.... Give your community answers is a LOT better than just letting something fester for months because it might be uncomfortable. :/

[grem2-gripes]

Wasn't the last event/prompt back in, like, October? Just declare the group dead, Densy.

YEEEEEUP!

A whole 3 part event and now nothing but crickets.

[grem2-gripes]

Your days are numbered Digi.

✨️

[grem2-gripes]

densy being inactive in the discord and posting one-offs on dA, admins ignoring qna, mods barely modding the chat, really hope this means grems are gonna throw in the towel soon

clearly no one WANTS to be doing this jeez

It honestly doesn't seem like a job anyone wants.

Hoping mods and admins can move onto something they are more passionate about.
