I’m the captain now.
Yes it’s true, the group infamous for just being a way of showing off your subscriber count and advertising your YouTube channel is now in the very responsible hands of SuperSy. I’m sure he won’t do anything rash like turn the group wall inside out and control it with an iron fist, right!?
Well, obviously there are going to be changes. As I just said up there, the group is really just a chat for people to post their channels in and show off their subscriber count. Unfortunately, there’s no other objective way to organize ranks than by subscriber count, and although the number of subscribers somebody has does not determine whether or not they are a quality YouTuber, it is the best the group can do to remain unbiased. After all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so even if you have, in MY opinion, the best YouTube channel ever, but only 50 subscribers, it won’t be fair for you to have an exception. Clearly, the ranking system is not going to be dramatically changed for now.
What is going to be changed is the way the chat is regulated. I want the group to have more of a community, and that’s not possible when people use it for showing off and advertising. I want people to actually discuss ROBLOX videos, the upcoming BLOXYs, or just about filmmaking in general. Anything but “Check out my new video guys!!!” The only way I see this actually happening is if the chat privileges for the second most populated rank “Fans and Beginner Filmmakers” are taken away AT LEAST for the time being. Once the chat changes its focus towards actual discussions, I think then it might be safe to turn the chat back on for the second rank. The reason for turning it off for just that rank is that it is extremely difficult to moderate a rank of more than 150 people while trying to make the transition into a community-based group. It’s just not practical, not everybody will have “gotten the memo.”
I know this is going to be met with a lot of anger. People who requested to be in the Beginner Filmmakers rank expect to be able to chat and I understand that, and I want to let you know that I am not excluding you because you have less than 250 subscribers. It’s because there are so many people in the first rank that joined just to advertise their videos. BECAUSE OF THAT, I’m changing the rank requisites so that you can get chat privileges with only 100 subscribers, not 250. I want as many people to be able to talk on the group right now without having to moderate lots of spam. IF YOU HAVE 100 OR MORE SUBSCRIBERS and want to be in the Adept Filmmaker rank, please contact an administrator of the group to rank you up. I know some of you might think I'm just trying to exclude the small YouTube channels but please know that I'm just trying to avoid more spam and, for the moment, I do not intend on these rules being permanent! I just want to try something new with a group that appears to have little use.
I believe advertising your channel or videos are for the VCR forum, where, no offense to you VCRers out there ;), a lot of rude and unhelpful critiques are given. If an administrator in the group sees someone posting a link to their video or channel for advertising purposes, the post will probably be deleted and the user can be temporarily ranked down. I don’t want anybody to be *banned* from posting on the group, so that probably won’t be the case, just try to refrain from advertising on the wall.
So, to all members of the group, I hereby officially welcome you to the Communist Dictatorship of SuperSy. May you prosper in discussion and never break our new austere rules, or shall you suffer temporary yet horrifying consequences!! Carry on!
P.S. I'm allowing replies on this post because I understand some people might argue that the ROBLOX Film Makers group is a place meant for just advertising your videos, since VCR is often clogged with more spam. I'm gonna leave that up for debate for the members of the group who see this post, in case anyone actually cares to argue that point. |

I actually like this idea, about the no advertisement but still sad because I just got hacked when I was 2 subs away from 250 Well hope this group works out, I'll still be in it. |

| @BusteRalph Johan is an adult and has a busy life, so he just had me run the group instead. I totally understand why he stepped down. |
