Feedback and Suggestions???

[otottoto]

I understand the need and request to change the theme here from recreational use to medical use and discussion only, however recently nearly all suggestions or feedback postings that disagreed with any change have been immediately shut down and closed in here. While I certainly have no intention to cause any trouble, I feel it necessary to point out that the entire point of this section is to allow us to voice our opinions and offer suggestions. Unfortunately I feel these suggestions are not being heard or even thought over before the threads are immediately closed. All I ask is for reasonable discussion to be allowed; otherwise this section needs a different name.

Once again, I truly am not voicing outrage or anger towards anyone, and feel very grateful that such a message board exists, however I felt this needed to be pointed out and discussed in a proper manner. This is sundance's forum, of that there is no doubt; however a forum is only as good as the members that post in it, and just as the people of the world need to be heard over government, I feel the members of this forum should at least be able to voice their opinion without such posts being shut down.

Hope this helps if at all possible. Happy New Year!

I agree, I also feel that for a site of this nature, the way it is now handled is not as good as it was, or could be.
I think you said what you say very well.

I agree.

When a thread has outlived its life in here, no matter which forum, moderators will close it.

Suggestions.......yes........questions to the moderators.......yes.......an area just to piss and moan.....no. THAT is the reason why most of the threads in this area get either closed or deleted.

We don't really need several threads bitching about the same issue or of subjects that have been answered more than a dozen times throughout the year. Sorry!

Now that your questions have been answered.....this one is also closed.

Have a good one!:jointsmile:

Reasonable discussion would be fabulous. Constructive suggestions would be amazing. Mature postings would be fantastic but that's not what we are getting. What we are getting is an unnecessary amount of whining and complaining with no real substance to the post. It doesn't take a genius to post that they don't like something and just moan and groan. What does take a little talent though is to post constructive criticism. What's the difference you might ask. Generally, constructive criticism the person exhibits some tact when discussing something and they offer solutions to the problem instead of just complaining. Here's a good example of a thread that offers constructive criticism.

There was another one started by Image Reaper a few weeks ago that started off great. He didn't like some of the changes and instead of just complaining he was very specific in what he didn't like, that the changes in the grow section made it harder to navigate and because of this it was going to cause more repeat questions that are already repeated. Why was it closed, because everyone else that posted in it just started moaning and whining without anything constructive coming from them.


Some threads are just downright rude, immature, and ugly. Doesn't take a MENSA member to realize those are going to get deleted as quickly as possible.

Look at this thread already. It's just a matter of time before this one turns into a big whine and cheese party. So if members don't want their threads or posts deleted from the feedback section, try to post constructive criticism and use some tact. No one likes a whiner.
