I can tell you're upset but I find what you wrote hard to follow. Maybe, it's because I'm stupid but I'm not the only dummy here. So, I'll go through it bit-by-bit, tell you what I think you're trying to say and comment, if I have anything to say.

I do not think that mabi should use big developers to advertise this game and this is why. I do not believe that bigger content creators that are so well Spoiled in finely polished games and better graphics and easy mechanics should not be streaming Mabi to 100+ people AND paid by Mabi to do so(correct me if I am wrong).

Nexon should not use content creators, from within the gaming community, to promote Mabinogi because many of these content creators actually know very little about the finer points of the game. Since they are only familiar with more modern games, that have addressed issues that may still exist in older games, like Mabinogi, they are spoiled and lack the patience to properly represent what is good about Mabinogi. As a result they will not be disseminating useful information, or worse, will be disseminating potentially false or misleading information. Furthermore, rewarding them for this kind of disservice is wrong.

Any content creator, under contract to Nexon, that is producing questionable content should be referred to Nexon, as you are trying to do here, with a full and clear explanation as to what the issue is. Such complaints should identify the problematic creator and the problematic content and why it is a problem but should, when specific, NOT be done publicly. So here, while the message is public no specific creator has been identified; no harm no foul, but if Nexon is to take any meaningful action, to address the issues you have, you will have to contact Nexon through private channels with the details of the content creator, their content, and why it is problematic.

Regarding the compensation these content creators receive, this is fully justifiable as the content creators, via their contract with Nexon, fully surrender the content they create to Nexon; they don't own it and so cannot receive compensation from, say, YouTube for it. So, under these conditions, Nexon paying them for their efforts is necessary in order for their contract to be valid; a contract must have an exchange to exist.

The reason for my thinking is this, you have someone who has 0 real interest in the game and will pick out 300 different flaws of a really old game because it does not compare to their 2019+ games and tell that to 100+ people so their followers will blindly follow without trying out the game for them self and mark this game as a "Poop or Dead game". The learning curve for mabi Dare I say it, IS WAY TO LARGE FOR MODERN DAY POINT CLICK STREAMERS.

This part, I think, is clear enough for readers to understand.

These are generalizations. To be sure, they may be completely true to some extent but not universally. Again, where true they will be doing Mabinogi a disservice so alerting Nexon to the issues should be done as outlined earlier.

I want to confidently say if mabi REALLY wants to see this game thrive again with numbers STOP Focusing on Numbers and start helping small-time streamers WHO LOVE this game for what it is and all your soul streamers need to be re-evaluated. OH and release x64 bit and stop making Afk events, make people actually play the game.

This section is also clear enough, I think, and does not contain anything that I feel compelled to comment about at this time.

?

Here's what I said:

Which community platforms do you regularly use for Mabinogi? Check all that apply. Official Forum

How long have you been a member of the following community platforms? Official Forum 6+ Years

What is your main reason for joining the community platforms for Mabinogi? Game news, Chatting with other players, Other: Reporting on in-game activities.

What kind of community contests do you enjoy from the official Mabinogi channel? Art contest, Writing contest, Screenshot contest, Other: Music

What do you think of the frequency of community contests? Not enough contests

Do you watch official Mabinogi livestreams? Yes

What do you think of the frequency of livestreams? Not enough livestreams

How good are the prizes that CMs give out in contests and livestreams? Contests 3, Livestreams 3

In what areas did the Community Team excel at interacting with you in the Mabinogi community platforms? CM was willing to take the time to have an extended private conversation with me via the Official Forum PM service.

In what areas could the Community Team improve their interaction in the Mabinogi community platforms? Community Team seems to be letting the official forums wither on the vine. It seems that there are only posts from them when it absolutely MUST happen.

Do you have any ideas for community contests that you’d like to see in 2023? I have stopped entering contests due to the surrendering of IP policy and the potential to dox policy. I do however still enjoy experiencing what others make.

Do you have any ideas for community contest prizes that you’d like to see in 2023? Enough with the gacha already. Specific items, NX, and pon.

Do you have any ideas for community livestreams that you’d like to see in 2023? There are in-game player-made organizations that plan and run player-made events. I'd like to see the Community Team attend and broadcast them.

The doo-dad in the top left corner that you can put skill/pet/action/transformation icons into, I'd like a button to have the two toggle-able sets stack vertically rather than just horizontally. Sometimes when I'm trying to move I click on the second set button; so annoying.

On the one hand multi-clienting doesn't seem like it should be inherently bad; I use two physical computers myself. It's like exploring map glitches; I've heard Nexon doesn't like it but who does it hurt? Mind you I've heard pinning sheep to props can get you into trouble, but that one I think probably originates from trolling so, I don't believe it and pin sheep, on occasion, myself.

On the other hand I see multi-clienting benefiting, the most, those folks contributing to most of the in-game inflation.

If Nexon is to allow multi-clienting, I'd prefer them to put that functionality into the client itself, so that everything remains in-house.

Last week they did the exact same thing. In both cases they lost the farm.

As a Harvest Moon player, this is concerning on multiple levels XD
Is a good reminder though that I need to do some studying again tho. Gotta repair this building.

Well, at least you're reading it. So, many folks you're facing are just jousting on their gut and the only thing that's saving them is that, most of the time, their opponent is also jousting on their gut. My dad tells me that in the '80's there was an expression: "Friends don't let friends joust on their gut"; words as true today as they were then.
