Delete the suggestion and feed back forums

Everything should be in general. This part of the forums is a ghost town and don't think I haven't noticed mods moving problematic threads to this area to kill them off. Or greatly reduce visibility! The forums should always be moving quickly separating something as wide as suggestions and feedback from general discussion is crazy as the anything from talks about a new perk to telling some one to "get good" can be moved here with our technically being incorrect. To terrible system and FAR to wide of an umbrella so the mods just use it to kill threads

    Isn't that the general forum user's problem if people who frequent the Genera Threads don't wanna see Suggestion Threads?
    Why don't you just look at Suggestion Threads only like me?

    And to be fair to the Moderators, they really do need to categorize them for the developers. Doing it the way you suggest would make it harder to find relevant threads on it, it makes a different to people just yapping about things vs. people who wanna suggest changes.

    Ill also remind you, getting loads of views and upvotes and reach is not necessarily important. Sure loads of votes can suggest popularity but I find that smaller ideas, changes that are easy to make, can convince developers and that does not necessarily conflict with developer plans have a higher chance of getting in.

    Some small perk changes I suggested made its way into the next patch for example, which makes me nerd out like hell.

    It's dead because they ban anyone that says anything even mildly contentious. A few years ago it was much more active. There's only a certain subsection of people interested in longform, old fashioned forums and they've been whittling that popularity down for years.

    'Known Issues' hasn't been updated since February and seems the biggest candidate for removal tbh…
