Oh so now John gets unbanned? Crazy... heās broken multiple rules. Jackie did nothing wrong but John did. This isnāt fair to Jackie. NOBODY asked for John to be unbanned. Heās caused so many problems. It makes no sense whatsoever but ok pop off I guess.
@samanthakkh scores getting more rigged with every SYS ! Iāve never scored this low (lowest score was a 26) and submitted in total of 16 tickets to reach the last earnable š± I mean when I started playing my scores were even higher with a limited kloset. No, itās not shady at all š
@thesweetone thank you so much! I was inspired by the knocked down stop sign at an intersection near my apartment, just thought it was too beautiful to not make art of

Love the rules being updated so we can no longer state our greviences with the people in charge because they like to think they are beyond reproach! Well guess what, youāre not. I can acknowledge you both are human, but you are both holding positions of power, which you abuse, and itās your jobs to take care of this forum in a fair manner. Btw, this isnāt how you run company, much less a forum. If you are going to do something like ban someone, you need to explain yourselves, especially to the person you banned. There should be no reason why things are so hush hush and why things are on a āneed to knowā basis. It makes it look like you have something to hide, which honestly you probably do. Stop making these stupid rules, after the fact, to try to cover how awfully you run this forum, and how unfairly and rudely you treat itās members. There is a reason this forum is dead. Because itās run like a dictatorship, and our feedback obviously isnāt listened to. Itās tiring talking to a brick wall and toxic positivity.Ā
āDiscuss support emails from Glu Support or private messages from
moderatorsā- right because you wouldnāt want others to know howĀ unprofessional Ā and rudeĀ your mod is in the dmās as well as how glu support is theĀ worst support in the world. I could get better support from a duck.Ā
āDiscuss locked threads or staff / moderator disciplinary
actionsā- nice job adding that one so now you donāt have to explain your actions when you unfairly ban people for no reason. Guess what. Iām not gonna stop asking why Jackie was banned.
āPost any content or engage in discussion about non-Glu gamesā- this has always been, and will always be the stupidest rule on the forum. Sorry your game isnāt as interesting as you think it is, especially when you run it into the ground like you have throughout this past year. If you feel so insecure about people going to a different game just because someone posted about it, you should probably make sure your game is awesome enough that they wonāt leave. Too bad thatās bound to happen because Glu canāt listen to their players and instead listens to money.Ā
Iām genuinely sick of this forum, so you can ban me. Though Iād like to be messaged about why Iād be banned, but thatās unlikely because itās obvious you guys are unable to explain your actions. A four year old can explain their actions better than you. And if you think this is āinsulting or harassmentā Iām gonna need you to log out for me. This isĀ valid andĀ long overdue criticism. Iām disgusted with this forum.Ā
Why unbanned John? Iām confused. He broke the rules multiple times. Isnāt that enough to stay banned? How many times more to be banned again?
iām appalled by this decision. the amount of offensive and rude things he has said & arguements heās started....not to mention he created a NEW account yesterday after being banned, which is oh wait breaking yet another forum rule.

I used to love this game so much. Iāve played since literally day one and spent so much money on it but I think itās awful right now.Ā
Koko, I love how you try so hard to stay positive and Kalinda, I get that your job must be frustrating at times but... the way things are going? This aināt it.Ā
Every time we get a new update thread the SAME things are being asked for. Literally all we want are updated weekly throwback boxes and minor things like setting date times, updates to what we can gift spouses, stuff with our children, a new location. Yet what we get is over complicated crap no one wants and your shady App Store reviews about how great sys is arenāt fooling anyone.Ā
NO ONE likes the new sys format. Literally no one. Even the people spending money right now are getting fed up with the pay to play nature of it. No one is winning the TS prizes and itās depressing as hell to commit so much time and energy to win a box with dye in it.Ā
I think some of the shady stuff youāre doing is money grabs, plain and simple. Youāre not giving us the dye exchange because you want us to buy the diamond dye boxes. Youāre not updating throwback boxes because you want us to buy the stuff with diamonds in the voting booth. Youāre not investing time in any of the actual gameplay because youād rather spend time on the diamond kollections no one wants and filling the kloset with diamond items no one can afford.Ā
I know I keep going on about it but I donāt care. The cost of the diamond items and kollections is absurd. You are expecting people to pay hundreds every month to get them and itās disgusting, tone deaf and insensitive to the point of cruel.Ā
I absolutely think itās fine to spend money on a mobile game. So many people spend a lot on console games or on other things that make them happy but you are honestly taking the p*ss. I used to buy triple threat all the time because I knew one or two extra tickets could get me to 1st place - I could buy 20 tickets now and still end up 15th so you know what? I buy NOTHING. Iām not going to waste my money so I donāt buy triple threat, tickets or diamonds.Ā
Soon the people paying a lot of money will get tired of having to splash out twice a week and by then all your loyal players who used to love this game and champion it and keep this forum fresh and fun will be gone. Telling us to keep quiet, to not discuss other games, to privately message so everything negative stays hidden, to just ābe niceā REEKS of desperation. You know things are going terribly so youāre trying to shut down criticism from any angle but itās too late. So many people are so upset and fed up. Unbanning Jackie is the very bare minimum: why was she even banned?Ā
The thing that gets me is that youāve messed up the game so much that I donāt know how you can even fix it without major major changes. Introducing a diamond business that pays out 3 diamonds a week or whatever petty amount glu would do is going to go nowhere near making a dent in the 900+ diamonds just this one update would cost. You could literally call and give us 200 as a gift and weāre still MILES away from what youāve added to the kloset and kollections.Ā
Iām just so sad watching a game I love go down like thisĀ
I'm just gonna say that this is a genuine question and not a shade or something like this: we know and talked about it the other day, that certain types of hairstyles, used on white people, are cultural appropriation and I support that. In this case, if I find it very beautiful and I want to use it, is it wrong for me to change my doll's skin tone to black and finally be able to use it on her? Because I think this is kinda the point for some people to want to change their dolls and be able to style them in a way that they think is most pretty.
Iām curious too! I grew up playing with barbies and bratz of different races, and I see my doll as something similar to a Barbie and/or Bratz. My doll doesnāt even have a proper name nor does she look like me (currently using blonde hair and blue eyes) Iām pale asf in real life and mestiza (Filipino & Spanish). I havenāt really change her skin tone much (aside from being the pales tan in tropical themes) since Idk if itāll be okay since other dolls voiced that itās not okay. I honestly play this game for styling, since I like giving friends makeovers and stuff. I also really want to branch out to trying out styling different races (not to fit a certain theme) but to play around with features and hair for diversity. Ā
Throughout my adolescent-adult life I have always tried to learn more and clear my doubts about the subject and I like to hear people talk because it is something that I will never feel myself. So when they say it's something, we have to believe and respect it, even tho its in a game.
I respect the way you asked this question and also the way you responded to the answers. I donāt feel annoyed by your question but I know why some Dolls get annoyed. I mean, there is centuries of culture behind the reasoning that some of the population just ... doesnāt get. But I understand WHY some of the population doesnāt get it. But for those that REFUSE to get it... that is why some Dolls are so annoyed.Ā
To make it simple- think about the Barbie example. It was GOOD that they started making black and brown Barbies. It was GOOD that black and brown girls could finally have a Barbie that looked like them. It was GOOD that white girls could finally have a Barbie that DIDNāT look like them, that showed them that black and brown could be FASHION and STYLE and BEAUTY too. Nobody thinks that white girls should not get to own a black or brown Barbie.
However.Ā
The Barbie is what it is. A brown Barbie, a black Barbie, a white Barbie, an Asian Barbie, a mixed Barbie (like me). A child can style their Barbie anyway they choose but what they canāt do is change the Barbieās skin and ethnic features to āmatchā a style.Ā
Skin color is not a costume. Itās is not an accessory, to be changed according to an esthetic.Ā
White players are free to create a black doll, an Asian doll, a whatever doll. But what is offensive is when the white players CHANGE their dollās race from style competition to style completion. What is offensive is when players use race like they use a coat or a dress or a shoes or a hair style.Ā
Race is not an accessory. Race is not a costume.Ā
You cannot take off your black at the end of the day and change into your more comfortable white skin.Ā
Sure, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... if a white player wants to make their doll a black woman with kinky hair... go ahead!!! Black and brown is beautiful. But damn it sure is offensive to see when a white player only makes their player black on certain occasions. To garner more votes. To win. Ā
We have reconsidered what happened yesterday and decided to unban @uglyjackieand @johnn92 . As moderators, we reserve the right to ban any forum users who violate the forum rules.
Kalinda, I'm not sure if you've seen many posts of John's since you do always work constantly, but I would like to bring these points up. He has broken many, many rules including bigger and smaller rules you have set. A few examples are being a troll, being racist, being sexist, posting outside links, bullying, arguing, making fun of other players, making an account under a fake name, and more. How can he be unbanned after doing all this?
An example of his toxicity...My 10 year old daughter plays the game too and I won't allow her on the forum for certain reasons and John is one of the top reasons. Simply because if he talks to my daughter how he does us dolls, well needless to say I'll get banned after going off on him because she is a female and a poc. I say this because that should raise a red flag to you and Koko. Many poc dolls don't feel comfortable with him doing what he has done for so long. How can he get by with breaking the major rules? I understand we all slip up and violate the smaller rules, but things he does is not okay.
Thank you for unbanning Jackie! ā¤ļøWe all came together in her defense because we stand up for what we feel is wrong. And I stand up and protect those I care about, including this forum family.Ā

Just to be clear how this is your āway of players winning more itemsā.Ā
Other than that,everything was said so many times its now pointless to repeat everyone else myself included.Ā
@Poopnuggets69 every word is in its rightful place and this whole forum and the game it self should have a huge change to make to have players happy and STAYING!!! This is just plain disrespectful and with banning Jackie and than unbanning without ANY explanation and unbanning someone who repeatedly broke MORE THAN ONE OF YOUR RULES NUMEROUS TIMES is just a slap in the face of every player on this forum. Iām down. Ban me. BUT THIS HAS TO END!!!
Wow this company, game and forum has truly gone off the deep end. I canāt fathom how unbanning someone who is rude and racist is a good idea? But then again Glu seems to only make bad ideas these days so I guess Iām not surprised
And speaking of bad ideas aka the new sys system. Hereās the small amount of items Iāve earned the last two months. No wonder weāre all tired of this game we play and get nothing to show for it but terrible shoesĀ
like fr... leave it to the forum that let posts saying black hair was "serving homelessness" (@Cherrey) & implying that if you had black hair you'd "want a hoodie to hide it too"(@kokokokonut) stay up for three whole F u Ck INGĀ years to unban a racist & sexist user lolĀ yall lowkey shady af, especially after how my baestie @Poopnuggets69 was treated by koko in the dm's when she called out those postsĀ stillĀ being up. this forum is run like like we're your naughty children that must kept on a tight leash and im F u Ck ING over it... everyday my friends on the discord have another story of someone here in a position of power here verbally attacking them in privateĀ
edit: i included the @'s of the comments that hurt me the most because im angry and racist people dont deserve me covering their assesĀ
Say whaaaaaaat!!???? I saw the prison comment but not the homelessness or hoodie one.Ā
Unbanning people* and creating rules where users can't question actions taken in forumĀ *noting that Jackie was rightfully unbanned, but John was also unbanned so peeps must think a blanket unbanning will fix everything without even paying attention to the issues happeningĀ
Hereās mine. For the tropical getaway SYS I used extra tickets to get the camera and suitcase. The rest is just to get the last earner. I havenāt even done that every week.
It's a new year and we'd really like to improve the forum atmosphere. Please treat this as a clean slate and don't bring up old drama like the above post. I am sorry about how that thread was handled 3 years ago and we already discussed it. Let's go back to talking about the game because that's what this thread is for - even if that means complaining about the new update!

@KalindaKing youāre missing the point AGAIN. The discussion regarding that post is clearly not over if you are unbanning racists.Ā
We shouldnāt have to ask Glu, you, or @kokokokonut (who has not acknowledged she herself participated in hurtful comments or apologized for them), to remove racist or hurtful comments or users not once but twice within the span of a couple of months.Ā
Edit- tagging you again @kokokokonut because frankly I think the way youāre staying silent and refusing to apologize for a racially insensitive comment you made is gross, this wonāt be going away and as a mod you need to take accountability.Ā
I wanted to thank everyone who posted for me to be unbanned, itās a lot of usernames to put in one post so I wonāt š„° But I genuinely do appreciate it š„ŗš although I was happy being banned since that meant John was banned too. But I guess that doesnāt matter anymore lol. Iād be willing to bet that they leave John on the forum to cause drama so that it doesnāt die. š¤·š»āāļøĀ
Isn't ironic that if he does cause more problems (which he provably will) nobody will be able to stand for themselves no matter if he's being sexist or racist otherwise we'd be breaking the forum rules? Btw I'm happy you were unbanned
Can we also start the new year by fixing the game? When I first came to the forums, I really loved it here! Sharing things from the game with eachother and being excited. Itās not that easy to keep that spirit going when the game changes to something we donāt like. We feel like glu never listens to out feedback.. I am sadly not surprised that all this leads to a bad mood in forum threads
Daaamn! Looking at this itās more and more apparent that you only get sys items if you buy tickets. Is this the reason why scores are being kept low? Iāve consistently been scoring in the thirties for months. Itās doubtful Iāll get this sys earnable too which sucks...
