Complaint: This revamp. This entire process has proved to be one big ball ache from one thing to another. My complaint is simple: I have either been ignored, not told what to do properly, and flat out insulted by most if not every mod who has looked over this revamp since I put it up.
On the 18th, I was informed by Heero (The last link will lead tot he PM where I asked my question and received my answer) that in order for me to go into this new style that I wanted, my choices were to either keep the 500 TP that I had gained and put into Gyakusatsu while dropping the techs that went with it, or sending my profile through a revamp. Seeing absolutely no reason why I would simply forget techniques and render myself incapable of fighting in close combat effectively, I opted for a revamp.
This was already a problem of time because I'm currently on an ATI quest, which I can't revamp into meaning this couldn't wait until after the upcoming CE. It had to be now or else I simply wouldn't get the style without severely crippling myself and going through unnecessary training to get and leave me with 500 TP that went into nothing. So I made the thread as quickly as I could and got it up on the 19th.
For days I received no answer to this thread despite messaging several mods. When Ayame messaged me back informing me that they didn't review bios that had over 500 TP, I figured that it was a personal preference well earned and let it slide. When Draven replied, however, he requested that I remove my spoilers and add in a TP chart.
I'll go into the spoilers in a bit. The TP chart, however, was already there. It is my last post in this revamp, and I just got finished altering it not but a little while ago. More on that later.
Here is how the TP chart used to look:
This TP chart which I made, as i'm sure you can tell, is not a cut and past version of the site's. What it is a cut and paste version of, however, is my previous revamp, which I have linked to, and was accepted. By none other than the admin himself, Heero.
So to tell me that I don't have a TP chart when I clearly do tells me two things. One, that my revamp was not properly looked through and two, upon seeing that my revamp had spoilers in it still, or perhaps after trying to grade it and getting annoyed by the spoilers closing, Draven simply replied to my PM telling me that I needed to remove the spoilers and put in a TP chart without properly looking it over. And it is a simple chart in chronological order since my inception of my character to this current revamp. There is nothing confusing about it if you actually take time to read it.
Now this spoiler issue was brought up before the site's update which states that there are to be no spoilers in bios being reviewed. In fact, it is because of this revamp that the updated was added as Ten'yo Haiwynn suggested in the C box (This is one of many instances that I wish I could have linked in my list of links, unfortunately the Cbox will only go back 7 pages and this happened days and days ago, therefore I cannot). That in itself is fine - I can understand a site update screwing around with a mods ability to grade. I didn't have any problem removing the spoilers for what I felt needed to be graded, which was one thing - the Arms Flash techs and the Goutetsu tech I added in to replace to Gyakusatsu techs I had.
Now, before the site update happened, I thought this would be enough. It was the only thing to change in my entire profile and thus I thought it was the only thing that needed to be compared. No one told me that the mods would need to look through my entire profile to make sure I wasn't adding in anything extra under the pretense of a revamp. No one told me that the spoilers made it difficult for the mods to grade my profile because everything they tried to highlight something it would close. No one told me that it needed to be removed completely - that is, until the site updated and Heero said that everyone needed to period.
So, now all of the spoilers have been removed from my profile as per the site update after I saw it. And nothing happens. It was early in the morning when i removed the spoilers, and mods were on and offline all day. I linked my bio several times only to be met with silence. No one was saying a thing about what was wrong with my profile, and in all reality nothing was wrong with it.
It wasn't until Ayame pointed out to me that the colors I was using for my profile - Black and yellow at the time - made it difficult to read. Ko in fact stated in the Cbox (Again, I unfortunately can't link it because it won't go back that far) "Ugh, Aimi your profile gives me such a headache >.>". Ayame further went on to tell me that the yellow made it hard to read on the Kurenai background, while Ko confirmed that the black made it hard to read on the Sai background.
... Did it not occur to the mods to change their background temporarily to Sasuke so that they could read it if they were having troubles doing so? Or better yet, why not do what apparently a lot of mods do and copy and paste certain things from the bio into a separate document to go over? The spoilers had all been removed for a day or two, there was nothing stopping them with that. Would it really have hurt to change the background temporarily if they prefered not to, as Ayame confessed in the Cbox?
So then it became clear: The mods weren't grading my profile because of my choice in colors! My personal aesthetics were preventing the mods from doing their jobs... how? Exactly what part of my choice in colors stops someone from doing what I said and changing the background or copying and pasting something over while they count up numbers? What part of the way I want my profile to look hinders the mods from doing what should have been done days and days before? There is no specific rule about how you should or shouldn't have your profile, no "do not use this color with this color" rule.
I was expected to change the way my profile looked, which I took a lot of time and effort into getting exactly how I wanted it to look, for the ease and sake of the mods who could have done the same for me.
So I changed all of the colors in my profile to blue and red - neutral conflicting colors that would be easy to red on a white, black or grey background so that there was no excuse in color anymore. Nor would there be for spoilers or a TP chart because they were both there or not depending as they had been for days and days now.
... So when I come online and get a PM from Draven telling me to use a TP chart that is cut and paste from the site, how am I to react?
It's not an issue of following the site rules or wanting to stick out from the crowd, this was only just being told to me 5 days after I had originally submitted my revamp! This was not something that was made apparent to me originally when I was originally PMed, I was not told that I should be using this type of TP chart rather than the one I had constructed myself which had been accepted by the admin of the site himself. I was told to put in a TP chart, which was already there.
So now I have completely demolished my profile. No coding, no colors, only straight text. I've put in the TP chart Draven requested of me and I've made it as simple and easy as I possibly could, which I have been trying to do this entire time. Hours of work in coding gone, all for the sake and ease of the mods who have not graded my revamp and who have not told me what I should be doing to fix it when in all reality there was nothing wrong to begin with.
And I know what's going to be said. "Spoilers make grading hard." Yes they do, and I understand that. But perhaps next time you should tell me that I should remove them all instead of saying nothing when I tell you that I've only removed two of them? A quick PM explaining that you have to go over the entire bio instead of an individual section like I thought would have been an easy fix to most of this problem. "Those colors couldn't easily be seen, it would be easy to change them." Change the background temporarily. Or, if you're one of the mods who copy and paste things over to a separate document to grade, do that. Do what you supposedly do and there is no issue. "The mods have plenty of things to do around the site/the mods have other things to do." So they do. I'm not saying get this done the instant I put it up, and in fact in the first few PMs I sent I specifically asked them to look it over when they have the time to. But just because the mods have other things to do on site is no excuse to leave me in complete silence and tell me that it's my choice in how I want my profile to look as the reason that they're not grading it. \
This is my very first actual revamp on site. Not a mandatory one like with the V5 update where I literally copied and pasted everything over into a new thread and added in a TP chart. This was the first time I was actually changing something, and I didn't think it would take long at all let alone this long. I never thought I'd have to make a complaint against virtually every mod on the site for my choice in colors affecting their ability to grade something. Mod or not, I should not be made to feel like I'm being ignored or shoved to the side for other things because I'm not doing things as the mods would like to see it - be it spoilers or my choice in color.
What's perhaps the worst part about all of this is that it's wasting time I don't have. While I'm writing this complaint and waiting for my revamp to be graded, I'm on an ATI quest which I cannot revamp into. Put aside the fact that the GM I have with me had to go on a 10 day leave for work. Put aside the fact that I can't revamp into this ATI later on and thus the reason for this needing to be done now. Put aside the fact that for every day that passes without a reply from me puts me that much closer to failing this quest and having to wait months to attempt it again. I was told that my profile looked fine by Solus in the Cbox, after he looked it over he said it looked just fine but didn't make a reply to it. Kyogi also claimed two days ago that they would get to reviewing my profile and it has not happened yet.
This is a simple a revamp as it can get, and yet I'm being jerked around one way and then another over one small thing and then another, over personal preference for appearance and even when I bend over backwards to make it acceptable, despite my not wanting or feeling I need to do it, it still has not been done.
Solution: I don't want all of the mods' badges. I'm not trying to indite people or even crucify them for being bad mods or any other bullshit like that. I want my profile graded, so that I can continue my ATI. So that I can continue RPing. So that I don't have to wait to participate in the upcoming CE and don't have to reapply to go on my ATI later. Or perhaps actually tell me what it is I need to be doing instead of leaving me to blow in the wind. Get it done. I've done enough to this revamp, now it's someone else's turn.

This TP chart which I made, as i'm sure you can tell, is not a cut and past version of the site's. What it is a cut and paste version of, however, is my previous revamp, which I have linked to, and was accepted. By none other than the admin himself, Heero.
So to tell me that I don't have a TP chart when I clearly do tells me two things. One, that my revamp was not properly looked through and two, upon seeing that my revamp had spoilers in it still, or perhaps after trying to grade it and getting annoyed by the spoilers closing, Draven simply replied to my PM telling me that I needed to remove the spoilers and put in a TP chart without properly looking it over. And it is a simple chart in chronological order since my inception of my character to this current revamp. There is nothing confusing about it if you actually take time to read it.
Now this spoiler issue was brought up before the site's update which states that there are to be no spoilers in bios being reviewed. In fact, it is because of this revamp that the updated was added as Ten'yo Haiwynn suggested in the C box (This is one of many instances that I wish I could have linked in my list of links, unfortunately the Cbox will only go back 7 pages and this happened days and days ago, therefore I cannot). That in itself is fine - I can understand a site update screwing around with a mods ability to grade. I didn't have any problem removing the spoilers for what I felt needed to be graded, which was one thing - the Arms Flash techs and the Goutetsu tech I added in to replace to Gyakusatsu techs I had.
Now, before the site update happened, I thought this would be enough. It was the only thing to change in my entire profile and thus I thought it was the only thing that needed to be compared. No one told me that the mods would need to look through my entire profile to make sure I wasn't adding in anything extra under the pretense of a revamp. No one told me that the spoilers made it difficult for the mods to grade my profile because everything they tried to highlight something it would close. No one told me that it needed to be removed completely - that is, until the site updated and Heero said that everyone needed to period.
So, now all of the spoilers have been removed from my profile as per the site update after I saw it. And nothing happens. It was early in the morning when i removed the spoilers, and mods were on and offline all day. I linked my bio several times only to be met with silence. No one was saying a thing about what was wrong with my profile, and in all reality nothing was wrong with it.
It wasn't until Ayame pointed out to me that the colors I was using for my profile - Black and yellow at the time - made it difficult to read. Ko in fact stated in the Cbox (Again, I unfortunately can't link it because it won't go back that far) "Ugh, Aimi your profile gives me such a headache >.>". Ayame further went on to tell me that the yellow made it hard to read on the Kurenai background, while Ko confirmed that the black made it hard to read on the Sai background.
... Did it not occur to the mods to change their background temporarily to Sasuke so that they could read it if they were having troubles doing so? Or better yet, why not do what apparently a lot of mods do and copy and paste certain things from the bio into a separate document to go over? The spoilers had all been removed for a day or two, there was nothing stopping them with that. Would it really have hurt to change the background temporarily if they prefered not to, as Ayame confessed in the Cbox?
So then it became clear: The mods weren't grading my profile because of my choice in colors! My personal aesthetics were preventing the mods from doing their jobs... how? Exactly what part of my choice in colors stops someone from doing what I said and changing the background or copying and pasting something over while they count up numbers? What part of the way I want my profile to look hinders the mods from doing what should have been done days and days before? There is no specific rule about how you should or shouldn't have your profile, no "do not use this color with this color" rule.
I was expected to change the way my profile looked, which I took a lot of time and effort into getting exactly how I wanted it to look, for the ease and sake of the mods who could have done the same for me.
So I changed all of the colors in my profile to blue and red - neutral conflicting colors that would be easy to red on a white, black or grey background so that there was no excuse in color anymore. Nor would there be for spoilers or a TP chart because they were both there or not depending as they had been for days and days now.
... So when I come online and get a PM from Draven telling me to use a TP chart that is cut and paste from the site, how am I to react?
It's not an issue of following the site rules or wanting to stick out from the crowd, this was only just being told to me 5 days after I had originally submitted my revamp! This was not something that was made apparent to me originally when I was originally PMed, I was not told that I should be using this type of TP chart rather than the one I had constructed myself which had been accepted by the admin of the site himself. I was told to put in a TP chart, which was already there.
So now I have completely demolished my profile. No coding, no colors, only straight text. I've put in the TP chart Draven requested of me and I've made it as simple and easy as I possibly could, which I have been trying to do this entire time. Hours of work in coding gone, all for the sake and ease of the mods who have not graded my revamp and who have not told me what I should be doing to fix it when in all reality there was nothing wrong to begin with.
And I know what's going to be said. "Spoilers make grading hard." Yes they do, and I understand that. But perhaps next time you should tell me that I should remove them all instead of saying nothing when I tell you that I've only removed two of them? A quick PM explaining that you have to go over the entire bio instead of an individual section like I thought would have been an easy fix to most of this problem. "Those colors couldn't easily be seen, it would be easy to change them." Change the background temporarily. Or, if you're one of the mods who copy and paste things over to a separate document to grade, do that. Do what you supposedly do and there is no issue. "The mods have plenty of things to do around the site/the mods have other things to do." So they do. I'm not saying get this done the instant I put it up, and in fact in the first few PMs I sent I specifically asked them to look it over when they have the time to. But just because the mods have other things to do on site is no excuse to leave me in complete silence and tell me that it's my choice in how I want my profile to look as the reason that they're not grading it. \
This is my very first actual revamp on site. Not a mandatory one like with the V5 update where I literally copied and pasted everything over into a new thread and added in a TP chart. This was the first time I was actually changing something, and I didn't think it would take long at all let alone this long. I never thought I'd have to make a complaint against virtually every mod on the site for my choice in colors affecting their ability to grade something. Mod or not, I should not be made to feel like I'm being ignored or shoved to the side for other things because I'm not doing things as the mods would like to see it - be it spoilers or my choice in color.
What's perhaps the worst part about all of this is that it's wasting time I don't have. While I'm writing this complaint and waiting for my revamp to be graded, I'm on an ATI quest which I cannot revamp into. Put aside the fact that the GM I have with me had to go on a 10 day leave for work. Put aside the fact that I can't revamp into this ATI later on and thus the reason for this needing to be done now. Put aside the fact that for every day that passes without a reply from me puts me that much closer to failing this quest and having to wait months to attempt it again. I was told that my profile looked fine by Solus in the Cbox, after he looked it over he said it looked just fine but didn't make a reply to it. Kyogi also claimed two days ago that they would get to reviewing my profile and it has not happened yet.
This is a simple a revamp as it can get, and yet I'm being jerked around one way and then another over one small thing and then another, over personal preference for appearance and even when I bend over backwards to make it acceptable, despite my not wanting or feeling I need to do it, it still has not been done.
Solution: I don't want all of the mods' badges. I'm not trying to indite people or even crucify them for being bad mods or any other bullshit like that. I want my profile graded, so that I can continue my ATI. So that I can continue RPing. So that I don't have to wait to participate in the upcoming CE and don't have to reapply to go on my ATI later. Or perhaps actually tell me what it is I need to be doing instead of leaving me to blow in the wind. Get it done. I've done enough to this revamp, now it's someone else's turn.
