MFS // IMPORTANT NOTICE

To Our Loving MFS Family,

We have done you all and ourselves a disservice and for that, we would like to both address and apologize for the situation. In order to avoid drama, we veered from our chosen path to try and make others happy only to find that it was indeed a slippery slope.

We initially started the roleplay establishing a system that pairs the members coming from their answers in the questionnaire as the basis of forming their perfect match. As we grew, this became all too difficult to manage for a lot of factors: 1/ Established connections, 2/ Chatroom interactions, 3/ Unforeseen chemistry form pre-pairing, to name a few. Hence, we started receiving a number of negative confessions leaning towards blatant ignorance of select members, isolation, discomfort, and unwanted shade that extended to all communication platforms/rooms of the roleplay.

Admittedly, in as much as we tried our best to put the fire out with the implementation of the strike system, the consequences of our decision snowballed to place a detrimental effect on the community.

We allowed user chasing because we weren’t entirely certain how to deal with the situation at the time and then unwilling to risk the drama that would have followed had we tried to address it later. In this, we failed the roleplay itself twice. We repeated the act again when we then paired this couple, succumbing to peer pressure in order to try and avoid more drama so that we could preserve this beautiful little bubble that we had grown to love as home. Unfortunately, these actions planted a seed that took root and grew into a weed that has slowly been infecting our beloved roleplay like a plague which has encouraged similar behavior in others. We have no one to blame but ourselves for this and we do, and to you, we apologize for allowing and through inaction condoning this to happen.

From the bottom of our hearts, we truly apologise for what has happened and we assure each and every one of you that we are on top of things in making this place a better home than it was yesterday.

With the growth of the member population comes the need for us to recalibrate the system to fluidly fit the experience for all members. It has come to our attention that a number of negative concerns have been raised privately with regard to how the community is currently positioning itself; hence, we’re taking these matters into our hands to better shape the experience for everyone.

To be fully transparent with the family, we will be focusing on the following items for the next couple of days:


1. Strike System - A full reset will be conducted and the pulse of the members will be gathered regarding the following points:

  • Events that account for a strike
  • Solutions to eradicate a strike

After which, please expect that not all points will be considered as we will be filtering them objectively vis-a-vis the situations that have escalated.


2. Matching system - With the number of concerns regarding wanting to be paired with a specific person, please take note that we will be remaining faithful to the original premise of the roleplay with both individuals roughly starting off as strangers. This will strictly be implemented hereon, and if this system doesn’t settle well with you, you are free to leave the roleplay by all means. Should you have any concerns, our PMs are open for discussion. No toxicity of any form will be tolerated be it a form of OOC/IC shade, negative confessions, or privately-induced mishaps.


3. Questionnaire - In relation to the point above, we will be recalibrating the questionnaire to best spot your character’s ideal type.


4. Speed-dating system - As this will be conducted prior to pairing, matched members will be immediately considered as a working pair for a coming season. This will be the only instance that well-acquainted members will be integrated into the show.


5. S5 couples - Given the changes, we will be NULLIFYING the current season and will be re-pairing members using the current system.

Please expect the admins to speak with the rest of you in the following days. In the meantime, please do enjoy the roleplay to your heart’s content and do take care of each other.

We would like to extend our gratitude to each and every one of you for contributing so much to this place and pushing it to where we are now. Married At First Sight would never have survived this long if it weren’t for you guys pouring as much love as we did to making this place better.

We require all members to acknowledge the announcement and come freely to us to raise any concerns regarding the details above. 

Much love,
The Holy Trinity (Jia, Boa, Nana)
