    Default Now we have no Feedback Forum.

    What's your opinion about the removal of the Feedback Forum? Do you agree with the staff's decision to remove it? If it was to return, or a new similar forum was to take its place, what would make it more successful? I'll include a poll sightly unrelated to the questions I ask concerning the Feedback Forum.

    As for me, I think the decision to remove the Feedback Forum was a good idea. I made a thread in the Feedback Forum concerning the forum, and I suppose it was taken into consideration by some of the staff, and thus had the forum removed. Maybe it's only temporarily, or permanent, but I think it's for good of the forums. Lately, it's been spammy, a place to whine, and whatnot. I would like to tell the staff that the idea to remove the Feedback Forum was a good one. Some may agree with me, but others will not.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    I think it was removed because no one wanted to hear any of the regular's opinions, or feedback, even though that's what the thing was designed for. Don't flame me though, thanks.

    You seriously think the demise of the Feedback Forum was entirely your work? :rolleyes2

    I know where I can spam legally! Eyes on Each Other! *skips off to do so*

    Meh. I'm kinda indifferent to the whole thing.

    And I'm pretty sure the happenin' place for legal spam is in the User Notes.

    I'm sad to see it go, but considering recent events, I'm constrained to agree that it was the right decision.

    I think it just needed to be locked up for a week. Over the past few weeks it has been a bit off the wall. Just a cool down period and during that come up with a set of rules that everyone should follow. Lets face it though. Everyone spammed in that forum from users, knights to admins at the end.

    Most of the time it was good but the last few weeks have been pretty bad. I say bring it back in 2 weeks and let it be the same as always.

    So much for my voice being heard in staff. I suppose Roogle doesn't understand the meaning of member feedback. This is just another step towards totalitarianism, remember that when they get rid of EoEo next and Del and I have no say in it.

    It went away RIGHT when I needed to make a feedback thread for the first time ever.

    I'll miss the feedback forum, but I do understand where the staff are coming from in removal of it to be honest.

    You abuse a privilege, you lose it. Simple as that. I understand completely why it was removed.

    As long as members can still provide feedback through PMs, and as long as people are willing to use that system, then I can understand the decision. The number of useful threads in feedback was rapidly diminishing, and the place wasn't really serving any purpose.

    I'll miss it all the same though. Feedback was for a long time one of my favourite forums, especially after my interest in FF started to wane and I turned my back on the lower half of the boards for good. There were some great threads in there, not always on topic, but great all the same.

    One important question remains though: With his former home gone, will Raistlin now be forced into the harsh unforgiving world of General Chat?
    "The most important and recognize player in the history of the country."

    Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.

    Yes, we all know how seriously the admins take PMs. Spammy or not, Feedback has been there for ages, and has served a purpose. That purpose was for you guys to voice your opinions. Now you have no voice. Good luck with that.
