New stickers for everybody! You get a three-eyed duck thing! And a sleepy octopus! And .... a jelly...cube...with... bones? Maybe those are french fries.
Because Kind Words is a chill place and strives to be a bit of the opposite of traditional social media, we don't flash a lot of numbers in the game. No online player count. No ticker with announcements or tournaments. (note to self: what would a Kind Words tournament be?) So every now and then we get two questions: [olist] Is anyone playing Kind Words?
Is anyone moderating Kind Words?
[/olist]
The answer to both is: heck yes, all the time.
Usage goes up and down, but on a slow day, we're still transmitting a couple thousand letters between players.
And we are moderating constantly and always improving our moderation tools. For every update to the game, I make 10 updates to the backend. Faster, smarter, stronger, purpler. Also, we. Hold on. Duck...
Where was I? Anyways, speaking of moderation, with this update we're doing two things to help keep things kind and on-topic. First, we're letting people directly delete responses they no longer want to have in their inboxes. Second, we're going to ask you to confirm some things before you try to do them like... are you trying to send a stranger your discord handle? Or your email? And we'll gently remind you that we gotta keep it anonymous to keep it safe. Full change notes:

Write Nice Letters to People and Get Stickers
Has something got you down? Stressed you out? Scared you? That's pretty normal. It might help you to talk about it.In Kind Words, players anonymously write out their concerns and sorrows by making short requests for letters.
Receive Comforting Letters
Everyone can respond to requests with letters of comfort, sympathy or gentle advice.Kind Words is a positive context; a warm, cozy mood. A place to feel centered and focused on the opportunity presented:
Use your words to lift others and be lifted in return.
Oh, and There’s Stickers!
You start the game with a couple random stickers in their inventory.Stickers can be placed on letters written to others or sent as an appreciative response to a letter that has been received.
Once you get a new sticker, you can make copies of that sticker to send out to other players.
Each sticker also comes with a 3D toy that you can put on display in your room.
Swap letters to build up your collection of stickers and room decorations!
