You know, there's a real problem on the forums.

I agree with Koni's point in his edit. Sometimes mods will delete a string of posts when there is spam or an argument, even their own when related some how. Yet, sometimes they won't delete them, and continue posting. Makes no sense.


Darlene deleted every thread that we created related to this issue Googi spawned again. Yet, it's still sitting here. Why? What makes this one different? He made a bigger post?


I know this thread again will probably not change anything, but just remember down the road, we were right. You don't want to give us a say in how these boards are moderated, fine. But you are furthering the gab between us.

You got it bucko.
Lets look back.
When a thread goes off topic, why close the thread, or even delete it, when you could simply split it, allowing the discussions to go on elsewhere. Thats that was done with the Mac vs PC thread, and in that fashion, both discussions were kept alive. Moderators should push to keep threads open and alive as much as possible, it creates a healthy and welcoming atmosphere. You know, the kind a customer could get connected to.
You have to convince us it's worth it to renew out VIP or Gold. Is Graal going to cater to my needs as a customer? Do they care about what I think? If the answer is no, you're not going to get returning customers. Many of our active members here have only a classic account. In fact, some of the most active members of Graal are still using a classic account. Why pay for more if your dollar isn't a 'dollar vote'.
The idea of a 'dollar vote' is that in buying something from a company, you can influence what that company does, and how it handles its customers. It's the idea that the customer is always right that has kept capitalism alive. If you forget this basic principal for any longer, you're going to start to see some losses, and I'm sure that's something you don't want.
