My pure hatred for Miiverse

[NewLeaf13]

Where do I begin?

Miiverse is a service made by Nintendo, a Nintendo game Facebook if you will. However, on December 9, 2013, Miiverse was ultimately destroyed as it made its way on the beloved 3DS, as a bunch of 4-8 year olds seemed to take over. The Admins are practically communist. Seemingly no free speech. Not at all. Putting "hell" in a sentence? You're banned! Or, at least warned. In September 2014, a bug in Mario and Luigi: Dream Team accidentally let people put pictures from the internet there.

This guy's post got deleted because he took advantage of a glitch that let him have some freedom of speech.


Besides the Admins ruining Miiverse post by post, there's also other major problems.

The one, as I'm writing this, currently going through, is not being able to see your password. Not even hints, as in the number of characters in it. Forgot the password? Too bad. You're screwed. Which sucks because if you're on TBT like me, and you want higher quality pictures than from your not a Samsung Galaxy or I-Phone, they'll turn out bad. Especially because I don't want to take my SD Card out and mess something up by total accident and lose almost 3000 Pictures.

What else worse is that a high amount of the posters just post gibberish. Seriously. Look some posts up. Oh, and even if you look online for your pictures to download to your computer or phone, it'll only show "popular" posts. Unless you're lucky, chances are... you won't see it. You need to... you guessed it... remember your long-forgotten password to be able to find your profile/posts. It's an absolute mess.


Miiverse isn't just flawed, it's worse than being held prisoner while having to eat pickles, watching the show called "Mr. Pickles", and having One Direction play at the loudest volume the intercom will handle all at the same time. Miiverse is a tragedy. A horrible thing of exceptional proportions. There's no saving grace here. I'll post this on my blog as well.

Miiverse, if you hate me, I have no choice but to hate you.

Miiverse was decent on Wii U and I believe it should been a Wii U exclusive feature. The 3DS users ruined it...

This topic reminds me of Miiverse already.

I agree with most of this but in my opinion it's the rules, not the admins. All the admins are doing is being pretty uptight about the rules. Occasionally I'll find a good drawing.

I made a full album on imgur of every post I saw when that glitch happened. Here it is if anyone wants to see it.

I'm not very active on there, but sometimes it's nice to share drawings when you're bored... There's just so many kids on there that I can't stand the immaturity levels.

I found it funny when the administrators on Miiverse removed my description because I said that "I like making friends", so they took it as "oh no, you can't make friends on here. you're breaking the rules. lol, next time you will be banned." I didn't post any friend codes and I barely talked to anyone, so it was really strange. They won't even allow me to edit it. It's forever blank. :U

@JJarmon

That's stupid. I'm surprised they didn't ban me yet because I say I like yeah-ing posts. By the way, I think I'm quitting Miiverse soon. I'll be occasionally, but very rarely, active. I hope I don't get banned because my description is going to be:

"I quit."

 

[JCnator]

I actually got one of my posts removed without even telling me a reason at all, presumably because of some foolish user who thought that reporting this post is a great idea. Here's the "problematic" post.

Spoiler

The Miiverse Admin warning management system is poorly done. If I want to prove them they're wrong, all I could use is a selection of premade answers that isn't comprehensive at all, in which the Admins will adamantly still consider it as rule-breaking even if their reasons are factually wrong. There's no way to argue with them, unless you send a email to your region's Nintendo headquarter specifically asking about that and then get to phone them once they've replied it.

Miiverse is basically like the YouTube on how it handles posts. Sometimes, they're reasonable, but other times will be anyone's guess.

Probably because you said teh word glitches... I got banned for saying stupid and action replay in the same sentence.

Miiverse isn't 'nintendo facebook', it's a good way of making the network more universal, and thus integrating internet connection better into their games. From our standards I agree that it is very strict, however, I understand that Nintendo needs to keep up their image as the most family friendly gaming company so that parents of all kinds will have no worries when they are playing wii fit with their children.

and yes cory in the house is my fav anime too

 

[LambdaDelta]

I don't even care.

 

[spCrossing]

Then again, the only purpose to use Miiverse now is to draw.

Other than that, don't bother. The community went to absolute crap ever since the 3DS version launched, and the mods are so family-friendly on that site you just HAVE to follow the rules.

 

[TykiButterfree]

I got a post deleted once because I said I got a hacked Pokemon off of gts. I wasn't even the one who hacked it. lol I really just use it if I get a funny screen shot or if I feel like drawing.
I put something like "miiverse is stupid for not allowing people to post friend codes" in my miiverse profile. Though it is kind of fun to try to sneak a friend code into a post to see if mods catch it. One of mine wasn't caught because it was a few pages in before I commented. mwa ha ha

Looking at your signature, you play NL. Therefore, you ruined it?

It seems pretty pointless to me to complain about Miiverse when it's an optional feature. I'm not interested in the community aspect of it (just the way it makes it easier to take pictures of my ACNL game but that's not worth it) so I don't bother.

I can understand why the rules would be strict, since it's aimed at all-ages. From the things that have been described in this thread, like posts that aren't breaking the rules (like talking about getting a hacked pok?mon) being banned, the issue is probably the staff. There's lots of posts to monitor, though, so it might just be easy to delete all posts containing specific words or rely on reports.

Wow. They should at least let you give them a message of your own.

Ok, I just wanted to tell people about my problems with it! I was quitting soon, anyway.

 

[AkatsukiYoshi]

I hate that you cannot post fcs on miiverse. How are you even supposed to make friends and play others in games such as Pokemon or Smash Bros for example? I found out the only way to bypass the fc restriction was to add them on wii u and send them a message with the 3ds fc. At least their message system isn't well moderated.
