Last night I had some idea about the sr2 community and I decided to write it down.
I feel a thing the community is missing now, in short, is "different together".
The first part, "different", means we should be ourselves. The amount of starship on the website is frustrating and some people are angry with a creator just because they see a craft that they disliked but the creator might actually find it fun. It's just harmful to rate others craft out loud without their permission - we hurts people's feelings by doing so. Please, let's just built whatever we like instead of being limited by others opinion and "trends".
The second part, "together", means we should respect each other. We game for fun and it ruins others fun if we are unfriendly at them. Remember even if you hate a craft, that craft is made by a person who has feelings. there are humans behind the screen. Let's just be more friendly and kind.
At the end, to whoever reading this, have a good day.

“Different Together”
.
I like how this word means.

I know it’s frustrating we get to see SpaceX every day and every night and every time, but make the criticism constructive please; it’s just that they like to build things, so they build things and said things don’t break the rules. Don’t try to throw insults and shout at them their stuff is bad, just because they hopped into a bandwagon and make a “cool but cliche” craft or making a constructive successor of another’s. Instead, why not be calm and constructive in your criticisms while giving clear and elaborate feedback on the qualities of the crafts. That’s what this community is for; creating builds while also generously allowing others to modify your builds to a constructive way. A restrictive community that oppresses people and greatly restricts their freedom is not a good community and may result in users leaving to other communities. So, if you are either so overprotective of your works, you try to give those who create even original and transformative works from your works, then this website is not for you.
.
These people who make crafts are human beings with feelings with a tendency to make mistakes and don’t like insults and harsh, in constructive criticism. If you don’t like a craft, don’t throw insults and harsh, unconstructive criticism and move on. If you don’t like a person, block said person and move on. You should apply restraint at all times because anger and tantrums don’t solve problems but complicates such. That’s why, you should be with other people as one and don’t create infighting.
.
If you don’t like this community, then leave it alone and move on.
.
A community whose members act without restraint and respect is not a stable community and may fracture, a lot, over time. People exclude others because they did not fit the standards, philosophy, and stereotypes they expect. When a post that subverts and contradicts any of this community’s expectations or philosophies, do not expect drama to come up, even if they did not break the rules. We should apply restraint and educate ourselves, so we do not repeat the same mistakes as we did in the past because, as explained before, a “toxic” community without restraint and respect will become a fractured, chaotic community that becomes a bad place for you to live.
.
So here’s the thing, be yourself, being different as a person and be with others as one, being together to work as an accepting community. If no one applies these principles, the community might fall down and that’s something you don’t want to. That is the purpose of being “different together,” to be one while working with others as one.
