Posting to FRD definitely feels to be a last resort. It breaks the rules of the forums, but it gets the word out to others on a larger scale. Booleano could have let everything be since they're not in the flight so it's not their problem; but I suspect given how much talk there has been on Fire Dom lately, they must have decided to speak out. No one in Fire is going to do it publicly, but no one in Fire is being heard.
Still. Screenshots would have been nice. I want to know how long Fire has been silently trying to ask for a change in Dom before they finally snap.

I haven't seen screenshots this blurry since 1994 lol
Holy fucking shit lol
What catty little bitches
What catty little bitches
open it in desktop mode, it fixes the issue
LPSvsS is so fucking foul here. when these screens were posted with redacted UNs i assumed it was multiple people being pissy, but no. genuinely hoping theyre not an AA member because if they are, holy shit. what an awful way to act towards genuine and clear-headed criticism.
SA
also how do these dom leads not know who their heavy exalters are. do they never look in their own damn spreadsheets??? is it not abundantly clear who the most active players are? and in what world would people NOT want their donations logged???? this is so crazy to me

You're right!! To my defense, there was no desktop mode in 1994 :D
they're not in AA, my friend in Fire checked the list
The people with darker red usernames are AA members
It's extremely relevant to flight changes which are both time-gated and (for most users) expensive. Having information out there like this is in the public's best interest because people shouldn't get stuck in a flight they're miserable in. If a dom team wants stuff like this not to be in the public eye, then they should work to improve the flight, which AA clearly mostly hasn't done.
(If flight changes could be done at any time and for free, then I'd agree it has no purpose being public, but well. That's not how FR is set up.)

very good point - it's sooo hard to know how a flight's dom scene functions unless you have a good friend who can give you real talk other than "we have a great dom scene! 😊😊😊" lol
We may not need to know, but sometimes this is necessary to get change when all else fails. See lightning. The same kind of public call-out led to things being fixed.
And yea, like the other anon said. People wanting to go to fire deserve full disclosure of what they're getting into.

Before all this, i woulda said Fire would be my first pick if i left my flight for some reason
Now... hah, no way.

Now that I saw the whole thing...
Am I the only one baffled that, when a list of polite criticism and real issues was brought up, the only response fire Dom had was to hurl abuse and personal attacks? No one addressed a single issue.
Just were the cattiest bitches possible.

This legit had me snorting IRL. Thank you.
Also, even with a friend, taste is subjective. Unless they're screensharing the forums/flight discords (which runs into its own problems), what makes a good dom effort to one person may not be the same to another.
Like I was super into raffle attending as my primary contribution to dom, and at one point joined a flight a dom friend recommended only to find out it was mostly coli programs and in-flight efforts with very few OOFRs planned over the next X time. Someone else may really enjoy sunburns (or equivalent programs), or the various coli programs, or really appreciate 'lend a coli team' or 'lair expansion' efforts aimed at newbies, etc.
Even among flights that have their shit together, it's hard to tell if it'll be for you until you're actually there.

LPSvsS: is insulting, passive aggressive
Memefish: patiently explaining they're being PA/insulting
LPSvsS: Continues being PA and insulting
Memefish: Alright, fuck you, I'm done, dipshit.
LPSvsS: NO NEED TO BE INSULTING AND AGGRESSIVE WTF
Also LPSvsS: People hate us, they fuck with our sheets, idk what else to do :(
The lack of self awareness is staggering.

bruhhh love that you just posted my private discord username to an anon board. real dick move to do over a fuckin pixel dragon game
Isn't the Fire Discord a public server, one that anyone can request to join? That doesn't really make your Discord username "private" anymore if it's that easily accessible, not to mention that it'd be a server with a large number of people in it.
(note: I'm aware that it's probably Fire Flight members only, however, I do faintly recall a friend saying to me a while back that someone in that server can invite one OOF person, but please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not in Fire.)

all dom stuff is locked behind a fire flight role. so no. Oof ppl cannot see any dom related discussions. Also it being a public discord doesn't really justify posting screenshots of a drama related to a fucking pixel dragon game. It's one thing if it was more serious gross shit with a greater reach but it's literally a pixel dragon game. Like really you're gonna post open UNs on a cesspool like this and be surprised they're upset lmao
AYRT
Thank you for answering my question. In exchange, let me give you some advice:
Stomping your feet and making a tantrum about this will only draw more attention to you. It looks childish. Whoever you are, whatever your stance may be on posting Discord screenshots in relation to FR, the stuff you were saying in the Discord was enough to warrant it being included in the screenshots so that the rest of us know what's going on.
If this is just a pixel dragon game like you said, then you can easily step away from the computer and chill out. No one will remember you in like a week if you just keep your head down, but if you continue to draw more attention to things, it will only extend the drama and put more eyes on you.
Yes, this is a drama site. Yes, it's going to be petty sometimes. But you're going to have to learn to deal with it, or just ignore it entirely.

I for one am grateful they posted usernames so I can block some of these people. I absolutely don't want anything to do with them ever lol
couldnt you say this about literally any discord screens that are shared, though? people want to know if someone's being rancid enough to cause not one but multiple people to leave. i'm pretty sure nobody will give a shit about you/your UN, unless if you were the one harassing people lol
pretty sure people can't message you/harass you unless they share a server with you/are friends, and even that option, you can turn off, so....
Anyway, accountability sucks
