In my personal opinion, this thread should stay open...otherwise it will flood over into other places. People should be able to ask questions and state opinions in this thread, which is meant for them. It is evident the staff is here reading everything, I myself have gone through all the pages. If we don't keep this open, then where are people going to go with their questions?
The MODS care about your concerns people! Every concern you post is considered, and put into the equation! We can't be expected to NOT miss something, sometimes even a brand new user can help us with solutions. It would be unfair to muzzle the voices of the people we are trying to help.
