Actually, it's
those kinds of comments that would discourage me from posting here.
For the record, I am a member in many unofficial fan forums, both with and without moderator/admin capabilities. The determining factor of me posting somewhere depends on the atmosphere of a community. If it's overall negative, I leave. If it's overall positive, I stick around. Simple.

Yeah that's true. Just found out his first post is at 11-11-11, that is some day to post his first post on TRF, and after 10 years and 7 months since he joined. :p:p

Didn't realize it was 11-11-11, haha. That's indeed some nice date to have my "first" post in here!
(I use quotation marks because I actually
did post in here already in the past, but under a different account. Only recently I discovered (after fellow mod Titak pointing out a TRF thread to me) that I actually had made my usual "Driber" account here aeons ago, which I completely forgot about. I couldn't log in anymore as I didn't remember my password after 10 years :p and also because the email address I used to sign up here was long gone. I contacted Justin to recover my lost account, and so here I am, appearing to be a new member, hehe)

@Spong: I see you're still confused about what I meant RE who's decision it is of what to post where. Better take this convo into PM after all; I don't think a public board is the place to be discussing into great detail about the roles of admins, Eidos, CD, Meagan, etc.
For the record, though; everyone (except banned members, but that is not really
my fault) are welcome to get their questions in the Q&A sessions on the official forum if they have burning questions which they would like to see answered :)
It's not a questionnaire, though, as was speculated earlier. Just an initiative coming from Meagan and myself for fans to get in touch with the devs, which we happen to be facilitating on the official forums, as that is the proper place for it in my opinion.
If people don't like the Q&A sessions or people have something against the official forums, they don't
have to participate. I believe the vast majority of fans are happy that they get a chance like this, though. After all, CD is under no obligation to do this in the first place. And from experience I can say that not many game studios go this extra mile.

On a final (general) note; I am sensing a lot of bad blood between this and the official forum. I don't know into detail what exactly happened in the past, nor am I interested in carrying on old grudges which I have not been involved in, in the first place. I'll be happy to lend a listening ear to grievances of any member of any forum, but in private.
