Hi guys, Greytopher here with another topic I'd like to talk about with you. Complaining, and why complaining for something will not get you anywhere.
When someone says "no" they mean it...
Complaining starts at a young age. As far as I remember, I've seen everyone complain; even myself. Through the past years I've observed, especially on Minecraft and PMC, complaining does happen a lot when someone doesn't get something, wiether it's a kid or an adult.
I totally get my fair share of complaints from numerous players on servers, since I'd perfer to moderate and take control rather then build at this very moment. Taking care of one community and making sure it doesn't fall apart is a hard task, especially if everyone is aching for one thing: the next rank. This is what I find troubling: when I moderate servers, I usually vanish into the night and stalk the noobies like a wierdo. I check if they're griefing, a griefing team, or that kind of sort. I see them either building or jumping around in a forest with nothing but a block of TnT. Anyways, if this player is building, I can tell by the way they're building they're not doing it for fun, like how it's made out to be, but more along the lines of "I need to finish this so I can progress!"
The next day, this noob asks for a rate, acting fairly cocky about it in the process. I continue to judge the build, even though I immediately know what my answer is. I tell the kid "Sorry bro, this isn't really that great" and I proceed to tell them what they could improve on as a builder.
Then, surprise surprise, the complaining begins. "But, but I worked so hard on this! Took me forever! Plzz rank me up plzz!" I don't rank people up out of pity. As bad as I feel, I can't do that. They start offering me things in return, like they'll do my laundry (yeah, I've gotten that), or they'll help me later in the future or some excuse like that. I tell them no, and they need to work a little harder, and all they do is pout and wait for the next mod/staff/admin to come along. That same staff/admin says it looks like utter poop, and the complaining rises up from the depths again.
I see this happen every day, wiether it's Minecraft or not, it's annoying to everyone when we see a complaining player. If you complain, I can almost garuentee you'll be looked down upon by higher authority, seeing as you're the person who wants to get what they want, and they'll do anything to get it.
Ways to get stuff done without complaining...
I can tell you right now that there are TONS of ways without complaining of how to get what you want. If you follow these steps, not particularly in order, you should be able to get what you want.
Tl;dr?
Basically: Don't complain, bro. The more you do it, the more you won't get what you want. And remember: usually, my helpfulness through this blog will get you what you need! Patience is a virtue! Read above how you can get what you want without complaining!

- Patience. Being patient is key to anything. The longer you wait for something to come to you without asking, the more of a chance you'll get it!
- Take the advice given. If someone tells you "Imrpove on this that and this" then don't just shut them down and cry, take the advice (Only if it's good and you think you might actually improve...)!
- A small reminder. So, let's say you're following number one. Maybe the person forgets what you're asking, or maybe the person doesn't care. A gentle reminder of what you want could seem as though your just nudging them on the shoulder, a little like "Hey, could you rate my plot?" or "Could I have this?" If they say "No, you cannot" then WAIT! Being patience is key! Then, when time has passed (a day or two) ask them nicely again!
- Be respectful. The more you get to know the person, the more that person respects you. The more they respect you, the more they want to give you something in return.
- Stay positive. Acting like a lazy scrub won't do you any good... play it optimistically!
- Don't be obvious! The more obvious you are about what you want, the more they won't give it to you. Keep it to yourself, and don't mention it too much.
- Whatever you do: Do not COMPLAIN about it! Asking for something isn't enough, but then begging for it won't help either. The more you complain, the more something will not get done!
