I completely disagree with you XEo, this forum is an important part of our Community have, for example is the most important bridge between development teams with the users.
This forum is kind of dying, the only two things I see are "REMEMBER WHAT VG USED TO BE" and "BUG REPORT". Both of which have no bearing on helping a game master do their job any better. A GM will NOT be fixing bugs they will help test them however. A game master is NOT a "developer" like you say in your quote.
Guys just give people a fairer chance and perhaps we will finally have a staff that gives us round the clock support ticket wise and more people interested in helping the community grow back to what it used to be.
I swear Megan Fox has to apply for GM here for anyone to truly + it.
