Add an option to disable control group role in your profile

[tame sorrel]

For some people, control groups seem unnecessary and not needed. But since some people can't represent entire community, I suggest to add an option to personally choose if you want to have it or not.
That way, people who want it will still have it and people who don't won't have problem with wearing unwanted roles.

Think of it like discord hype squad. Nobody's forcing you to get a badge from it, but you are always free to. That way people will have a choice. And also control groups will have a little more sense since there won't be "dead weight" CG members anymore

@lapis mirage what do you think

[lapis mirage]

not a bad idea imo

[tame sorrel]

From previous suggestion, I understood that removing them completely is not rational

[lapis mirage]

but i won't comment any further since yknow

the previous discussion is over

[tame sorrel]

So I think that having a choice if you want to have them or not would be much better

If you don't want to have it, you won't have it

But if you want, you will

[lyric geyser]

this doesn’t make sense

if you don’t like control groups, just ignore them, don’t participate, they don’t affect you in any way

[tame sorrel]

What's the problem with people not having them on their profiles

They will still exist

For those who want them

[lyric geyser]

the entire server is meant to be divided, not a portion of it

[tame sorrel]

I remember you mentioned them being an accessory. If that accessory will be mandatory to wear, it will be more like prison suit than accesory

[lyric geyser]

wh

what kind of comparison is that 😭

[tame sorrel]

It's like

You know every cow has that thingy on their ear

At farms

To identify them

That is what control groups look like right now

Since they are mandatory to be weared at all times

[tame sorrel]

Or horses

But we are humans

So yeah

I don't understand why the server is meant to be divided

It was just fine before

Since when that requirement in being devided was added

Why is it required?

It won't kill anything in control groups itself if small group of people will prefer to not have them

[lyric geyser]

i have a question

if you don’t like a mandatory cosmetic role, then why do you not feel the same for factions

[tame sorrel]

But if you're afraid that a lot of people will prefer not to have them.. why would you keep it?

[tame sorrel]

What exactly do you mean for factions

Like maintenance/employee?

[lyric geyser]

you can pick either the employee team or maintenance team

[tame sorrel]

I thought it was remains of the colours change

And will be removed

[lyric geyser]

what?

[tame sorrel]

The qserf colours

That was fortunately reverted

[lyric geyser]

corporate isn’t even blue they’re red

their entire brand is red

the hard hat is red

[tame sorrel]

Corporate was red during qserf colours period

[lyric geyser]

the uniform is red

[tame sorrel]

Hey hey I get it it's red yes

[stable knoll]

It's blue

[tame sorrel]

But now it's blue

Nico's right

[lyric geyser]

i meant when he said qserf colours

[stable knoll]

Corporates have colors?

in QSERF?

[lyric geyser]

they’re red.

[tame sorrel]

Katsumi

[lyric geyser]

😭

[tame sorrel]

Nobody's arguing about what colour is corporate

[lyric geyser]

i am aware of that

[tame sorrel]

You brought up why I don't feel the same way about maintenance/employee thing

Because I'm not part of it

I'm engineer

And it overrides that thing

So as long as it doesn't affect me idc

[stable knoll]

(and you're CMP)

[lyric geyser]

that’s not-

[tame sorrel]

#1397920248283271188 message

But yeah I would want to also get rid of that role from my profile but it doesn't really colours my user or gives any icons

So idc

[lyric geyser]

you mentioned how the control group role is “dead weight”, okay, is your maintenance role not also “dead weight”

[tame sorrel]

It is yes

And

If I could I would also get rid of it from my profile

But the cg thing gives me an icon

[tame sorrel]

Which I don't want to have

[lyric geyser]

if you’re trying to represent the community then why are you only considering your own rank

[tame sorrel]

Katsumi genuinely

Did you read what I said

I said

I can't represent community

So giving a PERSONAL choice whether you want to have it or not

Should be right

If the entirety of community will want to have it

Then okay sure

But if some people don't

They should have a choice to opt out

How having a personal option for every person to opt out from control groups is an issue

[tame sorrel]

Control groups will still exist

For those who want that

[tender helm]

ok but arent control groups purely cosmetic and no one cares at the end of the day

like all we have is a 17 next to our name

[tame sorrel]

Yes, they are

And since they are cosmetic

[tender helm]

then why care about it

[tame sorrel]

There wouldn't be a problem

With having them taken off

If you don't wish to have it

[tender helm]

so you just want the 17 gone or what

[tame sorrel]

Yes

I want to have 17 gone from my profile

I don't speak for every person

That's why I'm suggesting to add a personal option

[tender helm]

uh alright

[tame sorrel]

Those who want can keep it, those who don't can take it off

[tender helm]

idk i dont really care if im blue or have a 17 next to my name since im generally not active in the discord here so good luck

[tame sorrel]

Yeah you're not really active in qsp lol

[lyric geyser]

this defeats the point of control groups even if they still exist

[tame wind]

the only thing that control groups do is give you a number role icon unless you boost the server or get some staff rank which gives some other icon

that is the only thing it does

is it really worth it

[lyric geyser]

and your desire for this suggestion is entirely based on.. not wanting a number next to your name?

[tame sorrel]

You assume that The amount of people who won't want to have them is super small, sooo it won't really matter

[lapis mirage]

ok i was on board with the complexity problem
if it's just because a number is next to your name than what 😭

[tame sorrel]

But if it's a lot of people who won't want them...

Then what's the problem with listening to them

It's either
Not enough people want then gone (no much difference will be then)
A lot of people will want them gone (then keeping them is useless)

[tame wind]

feel free to pay to win (boost the server) to get rid of the mandatory 17 next to your name

[tame sorrel]

[regal swan]

Personally I like the 17 because G-17 is OP

Ok that’s my take on this goodbye

[tame sorrel]

Yeah, then you can keep it

I don't, so I should have an option to have it off

[lapis mirage]

i mean i only boosted for emoji perms lmao

speaking of which people ran the available slots to 0 again so i should probably go make a suggestion about that

[bold thistle]

If you get rid of I will explode

[viscid oar]

we still have 10 slots don't we

other than the uh

sticker one

[tame sorrel]

Useless emojis

[tame sorrel]

Have you seen anyone ever use it

[lyric geyser]

i’m sorry but i don’t see how this benefits the server, i only see how it can benefit specifically you, considering you also just asked to have the role personally removed
