-Corruption Betrayal
In this room, the players will face one of their teammates (randomly) who got corrupted and they will have higher stats than the player’s stats both in offensive and defensive stats. The player who got corrupted will die but did not lose their soul points as it was scripted. After the players kill the corrupted one (AKA the mob who mimics their builds), the corrupted player will be revived and the party must enter a portal so the challenge is completed.

i feel like in this room there's no reason for the corrupted to fight the party? why not just die and then they all move on? It would be better if the victor gets increased loot pools. so winning that fight against your party will get u drastically better loot than them, since u cluched a 1v4

-The Deafening Silence yet The Shining Darkness Room
In this room, the players must walk straight to the bridge literally just straight while having the endless time of blindness effect. All they need to do is to walk silently through the bridge to pass the room. The players shouldn’t make a loud noise such as: Sprinting, casting spells (all spells), powder specials or jumping, if the players make one noise, then a scream can be heard meaning a beast has awakened. The players must stay still and do nothing until the beast makes a growl means it went back to sleep, then they can continue. If the beast has awakened and the player makes another noise, the beast will kill that player instantly and then go back to sleep. Passing the bridge will complete the challenge.

I like the idea, execution is not good tho. IMO it would be better if it was like a scary game of red light green light. Have a bridge with a blind boss on it that move towards you while you walk. You cannot cast spells/jump/allathat. This way the party has to work together to get everyone across the bridge without killing them all. basically one person would bait the boss while the others try and get across. the last person making a mad dash past or sacrificing themselves for the team.

i am sorry maddie but you genuinely really need to stop responding to suggestions in this way
like i understand you were probably told to take being a staff member more seriously but this is really not the way to go about it
it is really demotivating when you pour like an hour or two into a suggestion you made for fun knowing it will never be added to the game only for a staff member to respond to your post harshly with "we will not add this" and then listing the reasons why its bad
do i agree with what you said? yes. but i wouldn't tell the suggester about how its bad because obviously theyre just exploring their creativity and having some fun, and its never fun to be told your post sucks by someone you look up to. especially in such an aggressive way
i do not have anything against you for this i just hate to see you act this way to people because i was just like them a few years ago and i know what its like to be told your ideas are not good
is criticism necessary? of course. but it can be delivered in a nicer way, i think.
ultimately i think the best way to respond to suggestions like this as a staff member is to Not, because i think the suggester already knows their idea will never make it to the game and its not really within their interest to be told their suggestion sucks by one of the people whose work they're imitating
as a staff member you are a role model to these people, please do not let them down like this.

Except people genuinely do think we are going to add these suggestions. I only started doing this because I saw people being sad that their suggestions weren't getting added. They would bump their posts and talk about it being added next update and stuff like that, or talk about it in the discord, just because there wasn't any direct "no". I'm not doing this to stop creativity. I think the fact that people take time to create their own ideas of stuff is cool, and i've said before that they would be cool in a forum like your-work, but this forum is specifically for suggestions people are looking to have us add to the game.
TL;DR, I do it because otherwise I see people getting upset that we aren't adding them. If I was a poster who genuinely thought my idea was going to get added to the game I'd rather it be clear from the beginning that it doesn't work instead of entertain the idea for a few months where I am super optimistic on something that would never be implemented.

I'll try to soften how I say it, I agree that it can come off as harsh.

________________________________

I'm completely fine with people making these, they should just be in the forum for creations you've made and not the forum for suggestions for things to be implemented into the game

gotta agree with sam here. there is a massive difference from "Hey cool idea but this cant be added for X and Y reasons" Vs "not happening"
When i started the forms dwicey shit on my 2 first posts really hard and I didn't wanna use the forms after that. Idk who is willing to go back and look for the response, but it was really harsh, worse than this posts. overall imo the staff could greatly benefit from having more of a "we exist to see what you guys do and say" and less of a "we wont let this happen bc X" the staff can read but don't always need to speak. If there's a post with someone begging to add like the jenny mod and them going overboard then yea shut em down. But if its a genuine idea just let it be, even if its garbage. its just an Idea. If they dont have the maturity to know that their idea probably isnt gonna be used/even thought of, they need to be taught that. (quite an important life skill imo)

As mentioned in the paragraphed you directly quoted, the player who is chosen doesn't fight the party. A mob replicating their stats does.

Albeit it's still not a good mechanic for a raid room to have in execution but just thought I'd correct you.
