Thanks man! I would have thanked you earlier, but it took me this long to find the thread again...

Np, dude. And the only way I'm able to find threads at this point is to check my "posts" tab under my forum profile.

Maybe we just approach things differently.

If I'm providing feedback, why would I want to do that in a forum where it's going to be drown out by people posting about their upcoming scrim with another unit, people wondering why the latest patch notes aren't up in the GD forum yet(when they've posted in the forum called "Patch Notes" for 4 hours), People posting the patch notes in the GD forum (copied from the thread in the "Patch Notes" forum), and 127 consecutive threads about "NERF PPC BOATS NOWZORZ!!!!"... what happens to my feed back then?


Then don't do it in a forum. If you don't want to discuss things then don't use a forum designed for discussion.

Ask them to add an email address like feedback@PGI.com for you to provide your one way feedback.

Your disinterest in discussions is not a valid reason why they should be discouraged.


And considering the latest patch notes are still not in the patch notes forum (instead you have to read the thread discussing server downtime) it was often a good thing that people posted useful links all in one place.

:edit:

And why would the re-instatement of general affect you in any way? You can still provide your feedback in whichever of the forums / subforums that you want. No one is forcing you to read or post in general discussion.

2 Threads in this forum created by the same admin fulfilling the same function one dated 26/04/2013 the other 4/26/2013 (cant even be consistent with dates!), another fulfilling the same purpose in Suggestions.

Consolidation? Efficient?

You mean this one?
http://mwomercs.com/...ctivity-hotfix/
that's pinned in the forum for the most recent patch

You're asking to have it both ways. You say "post your feedback in the appropriate forum" but then lament that you don't have General Discussion, to discuss your feedback on an item.

So the complaint isn't' that there are 88 sub-forums, but that there isn't 89 sub-forums?

It's like where does a player go especially a new player go to get 'the latest news'?

is it one of the 3 different subforums in Developers Corner? Is it the Announcements section of Mechwarrior Universe? Or is it Patch Notes which is a subforum of Patch Feedback? (shouldnt that be the other way around?)

Or is it the MWO News which is yet another subforum?

Or Comstar Focus Group?

Or is it Twitter?

Or Facebook?

Or Reddit?

Or Google Plus?
