I want the Forum to be public

Okay.. so you claim that the bulk of them are idiots, and you don't even try to hide the fact that it's a stereotype, yet you don't treat them like they're all idiots? Then what do you treat them like, and why does that treatment apply only to them in person? Honestly, I don't even necessarily think that they should have posting rights on the forums, but that doesn't mean that I'm going to be rude like that. I think it's totally uncalled for to talk badly about anyone, especially making generalizations like that. And not that I want to question your psychology, but have you ever thought that maybe you've just encountered more idiot trials, and that the non idiot ones are too busy figuring things out for themselves to bother you? Maybe you think they're mostly idiots because you don't notice the 'smart' ones as much, not because there are less.

And okay, so you yourself don't treat them like they're idiots? Great, so you're reserved enough to treat them as individuals--when they are there to speak up for themselves if you do not--but what about the others who are reading this thread? I mean, come on, you're Crono. You're a hero to many! You teach noobs cliffing like it's going out of style! And you're a bad role model to people who haven't had the chance to get their own impression of 'trials.' If I came here with no prior experience with trials, I'd be fairly easily impressed upon, reading posts calling them idiots and too stupid and distracting to post on the forums. And maybe you're spreading that attitude, the one that's helping to lower player count just a tad more.
