Then when the administration acts on these things, be it telling people no not post in threads (this is a community forum) or locking threads that have no reason to be locked, etc... those actions make me draw away from the RPC and see the community in worse light than I had originally. If I feel that way, I am sure other new people do too.
Agreed here. I understand that we're trying to work here to keep people happy as best as we can, but it needs to be understood that everyone is going to be upset about something, no matter what we do. A lot of the things that seem to be causing turmoil within the community these days always seem to be so tiny, but get farther because these people seem to cry out the loudest. This isn't really a mentality that I'd like to see between a community of grown adults.
I know this kind of stuff was discussed in the LS meetings, but for some reason some didn't want to "open that can of worms". I guess I'm glad that this issue is seeing the light of day more; the general consensus being that it's completely unacceptable.
With that being said, I see no reason to lock LS threads or take away the ability for people to discuss matters related to the LS in said thread. However, if it's the owner, or someone affiliated with the group constantly bumping the thread in order to try to be at the top of the list... ? Well, I'm pretty sure that's not wanted here, but I'm unsure if the above is actually happening or not.
