Here at Shi'vali Empire, we aim to bring you the best and most enjoyable experience as you enter the realm of Shimora and explore all it has to offer. Our player's thoughts are considered some of the most valuable suggestions and comments we can receive so we may continue improving Shimora and all it has to offer.


Below, you may comment both feedback and suggestions concerning Shi'vali Empire, its mechanics, and its gameplay. What do you like so far? What do you think needs improving? Do you feel there are things that need to be updated? Removed? Added?


Guidelines


Bullet; Yellow Be Respectful.
We understand that some aspects of the group may not be to your liking. This thread is not a vent thread. When sharing your thoughts please be respectful in both your wording and attitude. Many artists have worked on Shi'vali and the bashing/bad-mouthing of any works or aspects will not be tolerated.

Bullet; Yellow Use Constructive Criticism.
Shadowing aspects of respect, when giving criticism, be constructive! "I hate ____, it's annoying to do." or "____ is useless." Is not constructive criticism. Choose your wording carefully and always elaborate!

Bullet; Yellow Keep Feedback Clean.
While we love being told how awesome things are, we'd like to see more than just praise in the comments! Does whatever it is you're praising work? Do you think it's easy to learn? Elaborate!

Bullet; Yellow Heart Comments You Agree With! Add Your Thoughts!
In an attempt to avoid double suggestions, be sure to give everything a look over! Not only that, but it gives us an idea of things YOU really want to see or even really like! In your +1, be sure to add your own comment as to what you agree with as well as whatever you'd like to add to said idea

Things to Keep in Mind


Bullet; Yellow This is NOT a Request journal.
While we love to hear your suggestions, please understand that suggestions are not something you should expect to be automatically implemented. While we do take things into consideration, the Shi'vali Empire team overall will decide what stays, goes, or gets implemented.

Bullet; Yellow Do not take it personally if your idea is "shot down" or you did not receive the response you wanted.
As mentioned before, the Shi'vali team will make overall decisions. We do our best to respond to feedback/suggestions to not only let you know we're listening but to provide to you explanations should we feel there's a misunderstanding or provide you with feedback on our own (i.e why we WON'T be changing something, why we WILL be removing something despite feedback).

Bullet; Yellow Do not take offense if you don't receive a response from a team member!
As we get flooded with different sorts of feedback and suggestions, sometimes there's not enough time in the day to respond to them all! Sometimes we may decide to discuss things among the admins and sometimes we may forget to reply! It's nothing against you at all.

I don’t know if others have been struggling with this, but as far as accessibility goes the cursive text on important journals such as rules and activities, is very hard to read. I need to copy and paste everything to a plain document each time in order to be able to properly read it. I can only assume that other people who have trouble reading due to things such as dyslexia and ADHD may also struggle with this. It’d be a huge help if the group would consider changing it to a more accessible font.
