#📨・meta-help channel consists now entirely of "IS THIS CONSTRUCT GOOD?!!! or another flex that no one is interested! The pinned posts outdated or useless, as grayravens.com/wiki exists. My suggestion, first, ban any non-related discussions, second, post ONLY GUIDES or share the experience with other players aka "I 100% passed this stage doing this-and-this" with a detailed explanation. Third, completely clear the channel EVERY NEW PGR UPDATE, so that the guides and search are not flooded with old posts.

I mean for a long time that's basically what the channel has been answering for a long time lol, we just answer whatever comes our way and if you have a question just ask

Pinned posts are still relevant because I highly doubt the wiki has information on how to clear immunopolis and breakdowns on the longstanding debate of Vera vs Capriccio lol, plus they're always being cycled through anyway so i don't know what you mean when you say outdated or useless. But if you could point them out that'd be great

Plus posting only guides or sharing experiences is a bit restrictive isn't it lol, we're here to offer gameplay advice and if gameplay includes advice on construct choices and pulling plans then how would you recommend we go about doing that

#

i'm honestly quite interested to hear what suggestions you'd have and how they'd be implemented since i spend 99% of my time there anyway

^ I don't see a point in getting rid of the help channel.

#

It's somewhat problematic having so many people who refuse to read pins/faq, any of the regulars can attest to how frustrating it is to see the same questions asked again and again

#

But in spite of this, locking the channel hurts people with genuine questions besides stupid questions about event modes and dates

#

There are plenty of people who do come in trying to make team comps, builds, and are genuinely open to learning themself, and seeing them in a channel kind of makes my day so if you have a way to filter rather than lock the channel I'd be open to some.

#

We can't exactly punish people who don't read, besides having to repeatedly tell them to check pins and sometimes they flip out. Frankly, the best we could do is just ask the helpers to ignore people that ask pinned questions and add a note saying "will not receive help if didn't check pins first" but well

#

If I pinned the message so everyone could see, there's one small issue

a lot of things from the past are still applicable
counterproductive to remove
