Per usual, Cloud, you've a talent for cutting right to what I think bothers most everyone here. The community itself wasn't really involved. Maybe it's that mindset of how parents are with children. Parents always know best and yadda yadda. I noticed the same hostility with anyone who disagreed and I feel that perhaps staff isn't being quite as open-minded as they are demanding of the users. I read quite a lot of good points that are either ignored or given a roundabout answer that doesn't really ease anxieties.
I dunno. Maybe this will be taken poorly as well. Not trying to throw blame or anything and make people feel like crap. Definitely not my intention. But as Cloud said, there has been a lack of...community in such decisions that affect the entire community.
I'm one of those users who doesn't use the forum unless something has gone horribly wrong. Obviously, something has. In game myself, I had a really hard time even enjoying being on at all which isn't usually like me. So I guess just wanted to throw some of my own weight - which is none, really - behind what Cloud had to say because I think it's a great assessment of how a community can be broken.
